I am mad crazy about visiting bakeries for tea and cake. I'll describe it as a hobby, if that…read moredoesn't make me sound like an absolute glutton. Anyway, my beady eyes spied this place on my way into Cheltenham when I was visiting for a wedding. The following day I scuttled out of the torrential rain for a cosy seat and some tea and cake. Disappointment number 1: seats are uncomfy and the space isn't very cosy at all This was pretty much immediately forgiven when I saw the gorgeous display of cakes and cupcakes and pastries and mini loaves and meringues and cookies. Yuuum! I was so excited! And indecisive! Admittedly to the point of annoyance, to which the staff did nothing to disguise. Settled on a red velvet cupcake for me and a strawberry cupcake for my boyfriend. Tea for him, macchiato for me because I needed a serious wake up after wedding craziness. Disappointment number 2: macchiato was not the teeny tiny espresso sized coffee it should be, but half a big cupful. Disappointment number 3: my red velvet cake was a) not red, but brown and b) stale. I didn't finish it. That's A Big Deal. Dec's strawberry cupcake had a lovely flavour but the fresh strawberry through the cake had made the sponge gloopy. Gutted. They sell nice cake stands and sweets and crockery if you're looking for a cute gift, which I was and I did purchase and the recipients were pleased.

A perfect addition to the Montpelier area of Cheltenham this, with its dainty little cakes, loose…read moretea and other 'posh' nibbles on offer. But the main attraction for many will be the Butterfly Bakery-esque cupcakes that are lined up in a display cabinet. What's not to like?! I have to say that I was tempted away from the cupcakes by an individually baked lemon meringue pie. Oh deary me, it was the last one available but if there were more I would have smashed through a second it was that lovely. Chewy, just browning meringue on top of a creamy, sweet and very lemony base made to make your mouth water! The girlfriend went for Banana Cake which was moist and bananery - made of yum. We were impressed by the decor, which was modern, clean and functional. No cozy seats though, disappointingly, just tables for 2 or 4 and a raised bar along the window. Like I said, a cracking addition to an already well-serviced area of town where competition is stiff. Its uniqueness will, I'm certain, continue to attract people with kids, 'soccer mom' types and those with girlfriends with a weird cupcake fetish...

It was busy, so you could tell that it is a popular spot. It is set on the river that runs through the village so you can enjoy your breakfast while the water slowly flows by you. This area and the cafe are beautiful. The staff were very nice, friendly and helpful. Even though they were very busy, they showed no signs of being annoyed or overwhelmed. They seemed genuinely happy you were there and eager to make sure you were happy with your stay. We ordered the sausage rolls and a Cornish pastry and they were very good. I'm sure there are a lot of amazing restaurants in the place, but you would not go wrong stoping by here to grab a coffee and a bite to eat.
