More about Earsham Street Café
Nestling in the premier shopping street in the centre of the historic market
town of Bungay and surrounded by many individual and specialist shops, some
of which have been established for generations, Earsham Street Café is a 17th
Century building bursting with character and enjoying a colourful past, having
seen service as an inn with a cock fighting pit, a bookmakers, a bazaar and
a traditional tearoom. Now it’s home to our café. We are passionate about
making indulgent cakes and creating delicious food from locally sourced, seasonal
ingredients. We strive to achieve this in a way that is as
sustainable as possible. We hope you enjoy your visit.
Earsham Street Café is the ideal destination for morning coffee, lunch or afternoon
tea, with plenty of indulgent treats to tempt you at any time of the day.
The café offers regularly changing menus influenced by the seasons and availability of local ingredients. All home cooked, even the jams and chutneys are made in-house. As you would expect excellent Fairtrade coffee, tea and locally produced cold drinks are served all day. We also have a great choice of vegan, gluten free & dairy free cakes and meals.
Once or twice a month we open for a special evening event - see what
we have planned for the next few months.
The Café is fully licenced for the sale of alcohol and offers a select range of local beers and cider, as well as wine.
Our friendly staff will welcome you and introduce you to our daily menu which starts with breakfast snacks and finishes with afternoon tea. In between enjoy a morning coffee or one of our delicious lunches - choose from a selection of freshly-made gourmet sandwiches, soup, our savoury tart of the day, pate or maybe something from the specials board.
Our freshly baked scones and delicious selection of cakes are the highlight
of a visit. Both our Carrot Cake & Millionaires Shortbread enjoy a reputation
among some of our visitors of being the best in Suffolk.
The former cock-fighting pit is now a hidden courtyard garden with outside seating, providing a delightful sunny area for alfresco dining.
Children are most welcome. Well behaved dogs are welcome in the Courtyard Garden area – making The Earsham Street Café a great destination to bring the family, meet a friend or just relax and read our magazines and papers with a refreshing cup of tea.
The café is ideal to visit on its own or can be combined with a visit to the shops of Bungay.
