Cafe Eleven - Shropshire

Just happened across Cafe Eleven yesterday. The warmest welcome. The cleanest eatery I have ever visited. Comfortable. Relaxing. Spotless loo. All the sanitisers. Tables and chairs cleaned down when customers left. Oh yes and the most delicious sandwich in the world. We will be back.

This cafe was such a gem to find ! My boyfriend and I were travelling through Shrewsbury and love a nice coffee and we stumbled across Karen’s cafe eleven. Karen was quick to answer our Facebook message about opening times (10-4) and gave us a warm and welcoming greeting when we came in the next day. The coffee is lovely, the food is delicious and Karen is a lovely lady ! We loved it so much we came back the next day and took some coffee beans back to London with us ! If you’re in the area and enjoy a nice coffee this place is a must visit !!

This community cafe is truly wonderful. They are dog friendly and always have something delicious on their menu specials board. Karen goes above and beyond to make patrons feel welcome... so much so, that my family ended up buying a house in the village! I frequent this place too often and it's taking a toll on my waistline.

I visited this café last week on my bike and ordered coffee, cake, coke, and ice cream. When I went to pay, I realized they didn't accept contactless payment. No problem, they told me to come back another time and drop the money in. A few days later, I returned, paid, and enjoyed an amazing cookie dough dessert, more coffee, cake, and ice cream. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they now offer contactless payment. It's rare to find such friendly and great service these days, and I will definitely be returning on my bike.

I have visited this restaurant a few times, but I am not a fan of their coffee as it is too bitter. Both my friend and I shared this sentiment. Despite this, we decided to give their lunch menu a try. We were disappointed with the salad we ordered, as it mainly consisted of iceberg lettuce with very few other ingredients for the price we paid. The two slices of cheddar cheese placed on top seemed out of place. The restaurant was busy with what seemed to be regular customers, causing the owner to appear a little stressed as he kept apologizing for any delays. However, if the food had been better, I'm sure no one would have minded the wait.
