Located at the birthplace of English composer Sir Edward Elgar, you’ll find all your cafe favourites, homemade bakes and great locally roasted coffee (Coffee Masters of Droitwich).

Sweet treats; cinnamon buns, KitKat brownie, coffee & date cake, lemon drizzle, Queen vic sponge, chocolate & caramel or fruity flapjacks, double chocolate brownie.

Savoury delights on our winter visit included a warming brie & chilli jam toastie, deep dish quiche, breakfast sandwiches and smoked cheese & chorizo bagel.
