Cafes Coffee Shops & Tea Rooms

This cafes section covers everything from the old fashioned tea rooms, favourite of retired coach tripers who enjoy day trips to historic towns like Shrewsbury, to what are often unfairly described as 'greasy spoons' serving good hearty breakfasts and lunches. Also included on this page are international chain coffe shops such as Starbucks, Costa, Cafe Nero. And the smaller independents which are happily becoming the places to be and be seen.
