Pleasant, friendly, staff but very expensive! £15.30 for 2 not terribly good, not very hot coffees, a piece of cake and a very small lemon tart. Maybe warm coffee is the norm now, as with the increased importance given to health and safety, these places are probably not allowed to serve hot drinks in case people get scolded.Think school canteen with benches and long tables. I suppose the clue is in the name! Popular on a weekday morning, though, so maybe I'm missing something and other people must think it good value. Wilting greenery in the form of cut tree branches not enhancing the place.To me it felt a bit like being in an underground shelter.

Today I took my 2 young children to The Canteen for lunch. I sat on a table near to the children's toys and it was absolutely lovely to be able to relax while they were fully engaged playing with the beautiful wooden dolls house and Duplo.I chose the Turkish Brunch an oat milk cappuccino and a slice of the Persian love Cake plus a sausage roll for my son. (My 2 year old shared my lunch with me and there was more than enough to feed the three of us!) Fantastic value for money! The Persian Love Cake was devine and not too sweet, just perfect, I highly recommend visiting this character filled, vibrant, cafe nestled in the middle of Nailsworth, I love how simple but carefully curated, flavour wise the menu is too, everything sounds delicious, I look forward to trying some more yummy dishes there soon!

What a lovely little gem in Nailsworth! I had a delicious Turkish breakfast, cappuccino and persian cake! Everything was on point, although the cake was too sweet for my taste.Big variety of bakes, cakes and a diverse breakfast menu! The staff was very friendly. It’s one of the main highlights of my first visit to Nailsworth. Love it :)P.S.: If you’re coming with your dog(s), make sure you break something soft for them to lay on. The ground there is rocky and there’s nowhere for them to sit.

This is a quirky find. Lots of vegan and dairy free options available together with nice fresh bread. There is plenty of seating and a lovely shop over 3 floors to explore!Had poached eggs and baked beans (odd combination I know but safe for my allergy’s) but it took ages (coffee well gone!) and then the yolks were hard and so were the baked beans, the beans weren’t too hot either. I did raise this, the waitress apologised, and said she would mention to the chef.Coffee was nice as was the DF cake.The shop is great for unusual gifts.

Friendly place serving delicious food. I lived in Nailsworth for a couple of years, but only discovered the place when I returned to visit. Now it's somewhere I go every time I'm back. Very peaceful and tucked away from the bustling town.

Loved the space and the quirky decor. The bagels we had were ok as was the coffee. Service was a bit slow but we did go at a busy time. Will visit again though as it deserves a second chance.

Lovely cafe inside and out with friendly, fun staff and great food.It's been refurbished recently, so has more room inside and a bigger serving area.Fun little children's space at the end of the main room.

Beautiful little place tucked out the way inbetween two old industrial buildings. The history of which I found fascinating.Quirky layout and decor it had a really nice feeling to it.Super busy for lunch time, we managed to get there just before lunch time, plenty of seating outside with most of it under cover. Staff were friendly and polite. Food was excellent and came out quick. Nice selection of freshly made cakes and treats to choose from. Definitely visit the store next door also.
