The Best Cafes in Bishop's Sutton, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Wonderful place. Fabulous food, amazing chai latte (best I've had) and very friendly/helpful staff. We will be back! Thank you

Great coffee - always super hot as it should be! Well done - keep it going - so much better than American chains…….and cheaper too 👏

What a great place! We stumbled on this place by accident, the food is lovely and fresh, the staff are very welcoming and helpful. Lovely to see this place is also dog friendly! If your visiting Bishops Waltham then you must try this place it's beats the other coffee shops in village and it's also a wine bar and real ale tap room! What more could you want? 😊

Arrived on a busy half term Friday for my daughter’s Birthday breakfast. Team really accommodating as we were a table of 6, nothing too much trouble. Amazing Pancake Stacks, Eggs Royals & iced coffee’s…. What a great place. Thank you

Always amazing food 😋 Worth queuing for no matter the waiting time. Staff are always happy, friendly and helpful 😊

Stunning, I completely understand why Josie's is always packed with queues out the door! First visit to the area, I would visit here every week if I could. The chicken, bacon, BBQ cheese toastie was delightful, pals chicken benedict tasted like happiness. Bloody Mary's, a must-have for the BM fans!

Really fantastic- actually surpassed my high expectations from reading the reviews! Everything we ate was delicious and tasted fresh and homemade, plus the service was lovely.

Visited after a lovely walk along the river. The local watercress pesto panini and the watercress and cheese scones were lovely. The service was friendly and the outside seating area was a lovely bonus. We will definitely be back to sample the Dorset ice cream, extensive tea menu and cakes!

Stopped here by chance and it was our lucky day. A large choice of speciality teas, cakes and scones were on offer. I had Bread Pudding which was moist, beautifully spiced and full of fruit. The Japanese wild cherry tea was so nice and I could get more than 4 cups from the pot and extra hot water provided. Hope to go back when next in this part of the country. Went back and it was just as good. Really friendly staff and great food and drink.

Our first visit to this sweet, friendly tearoom. We sat in the window to play a game, eat cake and people watch. The young waitress was very charming even though it was quite busy. My oat mocha was absolutely delicious, on par with ones I've had in France. It tasted like melted chocolate and had the consistency of such. 10/10 for the bread and butter pudding. The husband gave equally high marks for the splendid chocolate cake, the maker of whom clearly understood that icing should be in near equal quantities to the sponge 😁😁

The Ivy is a great place to eat with unusual food on offer. I had whisky barrel smoked venison tartare to start and goose, turkey, and duck shepherd's pie for my main. The staff were very attentive. My only complaint is the acoustics are very poor and we had to shout across the table in order to have a conversation. It is a popular place as it was packed on a Monday evening a week before Christmas.

What an amazing place for lunch! One of the best restaurants we’ve been to in a very long time. Service excellent, food delicious and an ambiance to savour and enjoy. Thank you Ivy and our server, Cameron, we had a wonderful lunch. We were given surprise birthday cakes to celebrate our birthdays, such a lovely touch. A meal to remember. Can’t recommend it enough.

Lovely decor and the staff were friendly. A shout out to the toilets for being stylish and very clean. Food wise, the starters were delicious, squid and arancini are definitely recommended but the mains left a little to be desired. However, the chocolate / celebratory bombe on the other hand was amazing and the staff even wrote us a sweet message. I'd go again to try other food from the menu and would try the afternoon tea or the cocktails. 4.5/5 + £££

One word; Amazing 👏 I ordered the roast and I was always sceptical because I love the old pub but was pleasantly surprised my only gripe was as i was eating I saw someone get the beef 😋 and got food envy 😅 nevertheless the roast was succulent, potatoes crisped to perfection and everything was moist and super tasty. Don't get me on the desserts. I could sit there and eat them all day. Sticky toffee pudding 🍮 is intense flavour on the mouth

I recently held a dinner for 40 professionals at Forte Kitchen. The team at Forte Kitchen were super helpful both before my event and during it. They made us all feel very welcome and the service was perfect ... good without being intrusive. The food was delicious and totally suitable for the event and very good value.

Lovely café, brought my family here visiting Winchester. My mum said it was the best chai latte she's ever had. The atmosphere was fantastic and service was fantastic. This is now or go to coffee spot in Winchester

Throughly enjoyed my lunch here today. The food was very good(creamed spinach, mushrooms on sourdough) very good portion size! The scotch egg my partner had was enormous. Tad on the pricier side but the good sized portion made up for it.

A really nice place to visit .. it was my first time there.. & will definitely return soon.. . Such nice friendly staff.. I don't think I've visited any business, in recent year's, that have impressed me more.. excellent... I do not have a garden/ or allotment any more.. just window sills/an a few troughs outside back door... but you don't need a garden to get enjoyment from here... Lovely... Depending on what you look at.. prices are either good.. or no thanks ( what?). . Cafe was expensive...( glad I wasn't paying). Shame,, because it spoilt experience,, Breakfast looking good.. but didn't live upto description on menu.. was OK.. but wasn't really nice.. & definitely not for the price.. ( I even left some of mine, as did my family). Shall definitely return..( maybe a coffee,, but avoid food).

Sometimes you miss the nice places that are on your own doorstep. Today we found the Long Barn. Had a nice time mooching around and then a good value cafe and coffee. Attentive and happy staff and lovely surroundings. Thank you for our great visit. We will be back

Fantastic place to fund and sample. A picturesque barn, with shop and cafe tucked away in the hills. You can smell the lavender as soon as you're out of the car, the carpark is moderate but sizeable. The shop is sprawling and wraps around to meet at the cafe and gardens respectfully. From food, to dog stuff, BBQ and garden elements. Even candles and clothing it has a wide range. The cafe was the reason we went, it was pouring with rain but added to the atmosphere inside. There was outdoor seating but we stayed indoors. Seated quickly the staff were great, all the girls who attended had beaming smiles, very friendly and very quick with the orders. Even remembering key details from a 3yr old. The sample of cakes was great, from Lemon and Lavender, banana and passionfruit to coffee cake. The carrot cake was too moist for personal taste, but still good flavours. Great venue, and moderately priced, one to go back to.

Coffee and patisserie were excellent and the cafe had both indoor and outdoor seating and although it was quite popular we didn't have to wait long to be seated and there were plenty of tables. Staff were friendly and efficient and the prices quite reasonable. The lavender fields behind the Long Barn are free to visit and very relaxing. I guess that must be the scent from the lavender! There is free parking on site, however there don't seem to be many spaces and I imagine it's busy at the weekends. We visited mid-week and had no problems.

We popped in for a coffee and shared a caramel espresso brownie between us. Really friendly staff.. super latte art! and a yummy, gooey brownie.

Plenty seating, indoor and out, huge views over river. Smashing food all round, cakes, bakes, filled rolls, toasties. Coffee is amazing! Car park is small and always full, recommend using the park and ride over the road, or the most picturesque stroll from the city, across water meadows and riverside.

Lovely little cafe popped in after our dog walk customer service was brilliant the lady that served us was so friendly and lovely. We have to bacon baps and was very nice and reasonable priced. Also our dog was allowed too sit in with us which is always a bonus. Will definitely be going again. Lovely place with great surroundings areas with a lovely river
