Burgate Coffee House

We had a coffee at the van outside the station this morning and needed more caffeine so came to the shop this afternoon for an excellent and creamy oat flat white.

This cafe was a great spot for a cosy coffee date. The lady serving was friendly and suggestive selling, although we didn’t purchase any cake this time. The seating areas were clear and tidy, comfortable chairs available. Coffee was good, cafe was busy with people in and out but still quiet. Really enjoyed this place

Fabulous vegan and gluten free food. I had a delicious houmous and avocado gluten free sandwich with crisps, a decaf coffee with almond milk and a vegan and gluten free orange and almond cake. All first class. The only thing that let them down was poor communication skills with no smile and a disinterest in me as a customer.

I love this small, family-owned restaurant with a cozy atmosphere. The coffee is excellent and the cakes are delicious. Sitting outside on the bench and watching the tourists stroll by is a delightful experience. Although I haven't tried the sandwiches yet, they look amazing. In my book, this place gets a perfect 10 out of 10.

Visited Canterbury today for the first time and decided to go here because they advertised gluten free cakes They had 4 or 5 choices of gluten free cakes and all looked very tasty I opted for raspberry flapjack and it was delicious I had hot chocolate and husband had flat white coffee. Presentation was great and staff very helpful Downside was that it is a pricy cafe

I have mixed feelings about this restaurant. The coffee was nice and the toastie was delicious, plus the location in the city is convenient. However, the restroom was filthy with deep ingrained dirt, a dirty sink, and just overall very unclean. It made me wonder about the cleanliness of the kitchen. When I returned to my seat, I noticed a similar dirty area behind the coffee machine. It's probably best not to look too closely to avoid feeling put off.

Very poor service, pot of tea came with cup and saucer, no spoon sugar or milk , asked for milk it came in cracked jug, still no spoon asked for spoon , came but no sugar. Sent milk back , asking for uncraked jug , used friends sugar. Friends coffee wasn't hot and she had particularly asked for extra hot. Second cup came the same . Staff were disinterested and made no apology. Will not visit again, if I hadn't paid in advance I would have walked out .

This charming coffee house is a great find! It's one of the few places open at 9am on a Saturday, offering a bright and welcoming atmosphere with gentle background music. I tried a delicious flat white and enjoyed a generous portion of porridge with blueberries, banana, chia seeds, and honey. My boyfriend also had a satisfying meal of scrambled eggs with avocado and bacon, accompanied by a tea. The dishes were well-presented and just the right size to start the day off right. While it may not be suitable for large groups, this cozy spot is perfect for couples or small groups of two.

Imagine the scene chucking it down with rain, just left the peace and quiet of the Cathedral, desperate for a coffee, keen to try somewhere local not Costa. Sign on door says closes 5.30, we walk in, most tables taken, harrassed girl behind counter looks at us, rolls her eyes, looks at her watch (its 4.30), doesn 't acknowledge us otherwise. We go to a clear table, find an abandoned backpack. Sign says 'More seating upstairs ' we go on up, (PAST the girl at the counter), sit down, she appears briefly at the top of the stairs, "Sorry, upstairs is closed '... We get downstairs again and wait, still ignored by harassed girl until we prefer the sheeting rain. Just down the road is the Veg Box Ca...
