"Caffe Macchiato - Probably the best cafe in Aldershot"…read more *holds sides laughing* They are probably not wrong with this statement, but unfortunately this says more about Aldershot than it does about the cafe itself. What a depressing town, I felt like the life was being sucked out of me while I walked around it. We came for the football and were looking to eat before the game. We explored the town centre looking for a restaurant or pub that was serving food - nothing. Yes, there was McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut...not really what we were after. Do the people of Aldershot really not go out for dinner - obviously not! I had previously done a Yelp search for restaurants in Aldershot, and with the exception of one curry house, nothing came up - this should have given me a clue of what to expect!! Anyway, enough about Aldershot, we finally stumbled upon Caffe Macchiato and it looked like the best of a bad bunch. The cafe itself is quite spacious and well decorated and has art for sale on the walls. It was more or less empty when we arrived at about 17.30 and the waitress looked surprised when I asked for a table for three. The place closes at 19.00 every night, 17.00 on a Sunday. This is surprising seeing as they have a full menu. Some nights they have live music events on. There is also supposed to be free WiFi which I picked up but it didn't work properly. I decided to play it safe an opt for a pizza on the Italian themed menu. The Rucola sounded good - mozzarella, tomato, parma ham and rocket - four of my favourite ingredients. Unfortunately, when the dish arrived it looked like a bought-in cheese and tomato with the ham and rocket shoved on top before serving. The base was thick and stogy and not at all pleasant. In fairness, the others had a beef dish and a pasta dish and said they were OK. However, the side salad was smothered in salad cream! I find it hard to believe that this cafe is actually owned by bona fide Italians as I'm sure they wouldn't send out food like this. Oh, and the beer was warm, which the waitress knew in advance but didn't think to tell us before serving. If you are in Aldershot, this probably is your best option, but the sensible choice is to avoid Aldershot altogether!!

Great Food, Not Exorbitant prices…read more Eggs Benedict for breakfast is a rare treat

We had planned to have an afternoon tea at this lovely little café while visiting Newbury. We…read moredecided to go for a quick lunch, a couple days before the planned afternoon tea. Well, it was a good thing we did, since we didn't get to go back for afternoon tea... Just as the name suggests, it is located right by the canal. It was very picturesque, peaceful and relaxing. They also have seating upstairs, and had histories on the canal, with photos posted all around the wall. Their cakes looked amazing, but I decided not to order any dessert on this day. Yes I know, a big mistake! Our friend ordered Heavenly Hot Chocolate, and it looked so pretty! We went with Teashop House Blend Tea, and Earl Grey. The young boy who brought the teas (I hear this is a family-run business) was trying to very careful not to mix them up. But the funny thing was, he totally mixed the tea up! LOL. We didn't realize until half way through... I thought the House Blend tea tasted so much like Earl Grey. For lunch, we had Ham, Cheese & Chutney Sandwich and Eggs Benedict. They were both tasty, nice portion, and filling. Our friend went with something healthier, and ordered one of their vegan sandwiches. It is nice to have that option if you want or need vegan dish. We had a nice quick lunch here. It was adorable and cozy. The food was good, not amazing, but good. I think the sweets might be better than the actual food...I will never know, unless I go back! Lesson learned: don't never expect your plan to go just the way you planned them...and have your dessert first!

I love this cafe It's a wonderful location; you can sit along the canal watching the swans, the…read morebaked goodies are delicious, the staff friendly and the cafe itself is quaint with beautiful painted china dotted around
