“I was thrilled when Espressbros arrived in Ashford, finally high quality coffee made by proper baristas.The coffee is so good that I don’t add any sweetener because it’s perfect as it is. I often succumb to one of their excellent hand made cakes too. One other really good thing is that don’t charge for alternative milks such as oat, other coffee shops take note! Service is great and the team are super friendly. More people need to try them out - although I’m tempted to keep them a secret so it doesn’t get packed out, which it will when people discover this little gem.”

This is my favourite cafe in Ashford! Always excellent service and a very pleasant atmosphere. Also, they serve the best coffee (with rainbow designs if you ask) and gorgeous cakes. Perfect!

Popped in for coffees when visiting the area and we were intrigued by the other reviews as we love real barista made coffee and not the large chain places. Glad we walked down here, nearly missed the location (on the corner near one end of bank St.) The coffee was carefully made and tasted great, we didn’t eat as it was a bit early for us. Definitely will recommend and will be back 😊

A lovely locally run coffee shop with a fantastic setting. I visited here over the weekend, the staff were very friendly and personal, making the effort to get to know me and my family. The coffee and cakes were outstanding and it's clear the team love their craft.

A gem of a coffee shop. Hands down the nicest coffee in Ashford. The owner really cares about the quality and flavour of the coffee (unlike the mass produced brands!) Great to drink in or grab for on the go. Has a real community feel to the venue.

“Visited the cafe today for some lunch with my family. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the lovely girls behind the counter. The cafe was extremely busy and we were made aware there may be a wait for the food, which we were fine about. I feel this is a very well run establishment and well done to to the girls in there for managing the cafe, whilst being so busy - all with smiles on their faces. Food was amazing and fair priced with huge portions! Had my little girl with us and the waitress was very attentive! Will definitely recommend to my friends and family and will most definitely be returning when next in Ashford!”
