J. B.

Lovely cup of tea in the shade. Would recommend the pickwick blend. Nice courtyard setting. A little gem xx highly recommend

S. C.

Charming cafe in the old historic part of Ipswich. We sat in the outside seating at the back of the cafe next to a beautiful church. Staff were very attentive, we enjoyed a Plowman's Lunch and a Cream Tea with accompanying coffees, all absolutely delicious and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

S. K.

First time here and will return. Excellent choice of tea and coffee. We had Macaroni Cheese and it was delicious. Proper home cooked style food with flavour. Customer Service was very good. Reasonably priced.

I have visited Pickwick's several times. As I am new to the area I walked around looking for somewhere very interesting and unique. I have found it!!! Bijou and totally unique what a pleasure to find this tea room /cafe. If you are a tea/coffee afficionado then this is the place. Oh and the food is very special as well!! At times very busy hang in there it's worth the wait.

S. F.

Great range of coffees and some lovely cakes.

D. G.

Whenever I am in town, this is my go to place for many years now. Friendly staff, good homemade food and of course, an extensive range of teas and coffees from around the globe. Lovely to take a moment there, enjoy and watch the world go by!

Lovely shaded courtyard at the back which was very welcome on a warm sunny day. Great coffee and food with friendly service.

It has a great menu with lots of choice. Food is always fresh and piping hot. Everything i have tried has been really tasty and enjoyable. I highly recommend the macaroni cheese!! A lovely little tea room away from the clamour of town

S. J.

Great little hide a way for lunch. Cakes yum yum.

P. H.

A lovely find for lunch. Housed in a very old (historical) building, we were made to feel very welcome. The toasted sandwiches and hot chocolates were just what we needed. We bought a gift and also some leaf tea as presents after we’d eaten. We are here on holiday but if we’re ever back in Ipswich, we’d definitely eat here again.

V. D.

Had cakes and coffee... they were great. Staff were friendly but the concern I had was the tables weren't cleaned.. we were'nt able to point it out until later on.

S. L.

This is a fantastic independent cafe with courtyard seating. Better still, Wolsey's secretary apparently had an office on the site.

A. H.

If you want to try a proper coffee shop then Pickwick's it is, you can choose from a huge range of coffee beans and also take some home if you love it. The same can be said for tea too, usually I'm an English breakfast man but there are so many variations on this type of black tea I try a different one each time I'm there. The service is lovely and very personal.

D. G.

The pair of blond ladies provided really attentive and friendly service and were ready to enjoy jokes. The food and choice was excellent and was prepared quickly. All of that within an exceptionally old building with loads of atmosphere.

e. l.

A special place with best choices of Teas, coffee and good light meals too, staff very helpful

D. D.

Tiny, traditional tea house serving light lunches from a changing seasonal menu but best of all are their cakes and wide selection of teas, coffee and hot drinks. Staff are friendly and welcoming, making it a relaxing and enjoyable place to take a break. What makes it remarkable is the huge list of teas that they stock and coffee sourced from local, independent roasters both of which can also be bought to take home.

R. S.

Nice little place for a coffee and snacks, also has a shop selling all things tea and coffee 🥰

C. R.

Love their ploughman's. Great tea and coffee too! Good value

L. H.

A great place to meet friends. Serves a range of coffee and other drinks. You can purchase cakes. They also sell ground or bean coffee to take away. They sell different teas to take away. There is also a range of tea and coffee equipment to buy. As the coffee is freshly ground it can be strong.

J. B.

What a great coffee shop this is. We stumbled on it by accident, and thought it looked a bit more characterful than most of the cafe's we walked past. The service was friendly and the atmosphere a breath of fresh air. My new favourite stopping off place. Thanks

S. M.

Cosy atmosphere and quick service. I enjoyed tea and toast. To get more stars from me they need to include more vegetarian/vegan choices. Otherwise lovely.

S. D.

Such a cute place, love the courtyard in summer. Huge selection of coffees and teas and the food is proper English grub which is nice. Staff always friendly and helpful

J. O.

Food was lovely, and the staff where friendly and helpful. Covid distancing was in place and I felt safe and happy to be eating out.

Like a little oasis in the middle of town normally tranquil surroundings and great for summer as no indoor seating.

Great little coffee shop. Very telling that it was clearly full of regulars. As I was paying at the counter I clocked the huge choice of leaf teas on sale and was able to purchase some as a gift.
