My family and I came across the cafe as we where walking through the castle park and as soon as we walked through the doors we where greated by lovely staff. The food was delicious and definitely better than expected. My brother ordered a chocolate milkshake and the presentation was thoughtfully done. overall i definitely recommend if u are about in colchester!

absolutely amazing food for the price staff were very friendly and helpful. i had a ciabatta which came with a small salad, and then got to choose for a wide variety of ice creams after!

Great location with outside seating overlooking the park.Only had drinks which are now very expensive. £7.00 for large coffee and hot chocolate with no extras.Coffee not great quality and chocolate not very hot!Location made up for the drinks to some extent. Never had any food here so can't comment.

The food is offered as vegan but is fried with non vegan. Potentially dangerous for our child with severe milk allergy. We were not advised of a half an hour wait for simple food for young kids. Generally the staff were pleasant. Won't visit again.

Recently stumbled upon this decent cafe while enjoying a leisurely stroll in Castle Park. On a scorching day, we opted for some icy delights. The Mr Whippys at £2.90 was lovely, and the Kelly's 2-scoops in a delightful waffle cone for £4 hit the spot. The Rum & Raisin flavour from Kelly's was a standout, and the Mr Whippy's creamy goodness was truly indulgent. The service, while not overly enthusiastic, was friendly and efficient. The picturesque views in the vicinity make it a perfect spot to relax, with ample benches and well-maintained grassy areas. Plus, it's conveniently located near the play area. Highly recommended!Parking: As a non-local, navigating through numerous diversions due to a local event proved to be quite troublesome. However, a simple solution emerged when I zoomed out on Google Maps and discovered nearby local roads. Although these roads have parking restrictions, there are certain times of the day when finding parking becomes effortless.

Only ordered Cappuccino which was good. Seating area outside was ok though unfortunately no shade so had full hot sun. Space inside if you're lucky or can take-away.Great selection of ice-cream flavours though haven't tried any. Service with a friendly smile here. Weekends are busy so expect to que. Reasonable prices. ??

The coffee & tea were both the best we had during our visit to Colchester - unfortunately, whilst they looked appealing, the cakes were dry and past their best

Food was very nice and reasonably priced. Staff are very accommodating, even served us breakfast when we had issued the 1130 cutoff. Soft drinks are very expensive but then that's the price you pay for convenience. Solid 4stars.
