Great selection of cakes and the awesome, friendly owner stopped by the table to chat and told us all about the chef starting next week, when they'll be offering brunch and a full menu. Great for pre-work coffee fix, Saturday afternoon pick me up and the slick, minimal design makes it cool enough for a date.

Sorry to say, because it looked like it had so much potential from the outside. 3 of us sat down to have afternoon tea. My sister was visiting us, so I brought her here based on the old reviews. Sad to say, I should've done more research. Tea was a disaster. The tea was mediocre, scones weren't very good at all, and the tea sandwiches were disappointing. The place felt very dark and dusty, and the decor was very tired looking. The servers looked very tired and nervous as well. I feel that with a bit more effort, the experience would change for the better, as the location is good. Overall, a poor experience, so I won't be returning.

I can say without a doubt that this has been my favorite restaurant meal since arriving in the UK!…read moreI know my experience of British food is fairly limited, but I've eaten at a fair share of restaurants between London and Colchester. My breakfast at Timbers surpassed every meal I've had here. I had the Big Breakfast which was more like HUGE breakfast! The sausage, bacon and mushrooms were super flavorful and the eggs were cooked perfectly! I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone visiting or living in Colchester. Will definitely be back to try their lunch and dinner.

I have just finished a late and leisurely lunch with a good friend at this relatively new eatery in…read moreColchester. Suprisingly busy even for a Saturday, initially the service was a little inattentive. However, once this was rectified the staff where most pleasant and helpful. The menu is possibly the most interesting to be seen in Colchester in a long while, with an excellent selection of Chef's Specials to compliment the fine range in the a la carte. Two starters and two mains were the tried. All were freshly made, well presented and excellent. Although the prices are by no means cheap they are very fair for the quality of cuisine and there are set prices for two or three courses. Having said that look out for the lunchtime special menu which is limited but provides up to three courses for no more than £10. All in all a welcome addition to the town centre. Highly recommend.
