The Coffee Corner — Restaurant in Ashford

Once again, we arrived in England to find the coffee culture sub-par to the rest of Europe - well, only if you consider the UK as part of Europe. The good reviews led us to the Coffee Corner, in hope to find a decent cappuccino to start our annual vacation on the island. The staff is super friendly and the Barista asked the right question - would you like chocolate on top? Of course not! We had to sit outside because dogs are not allowed in the café, which is fair. Our "coffees" arrived within minutes, the cups full to the brim, sporting a strange foam head and peppered with sugar 🤦🏽‍♂️ The amount of espresso coffee in the cappuccino was maybe 5 % - we fall for it every single time. Outside of Costa Coffee there is only a handful places where you can get a real Italian cappuccino. If they just called it something else - that would make it easier. I could think of a few names 😂 Anyway, the bagel we had was about the same quality and probably freshly bought the same day from the Spar next door. Next...

A little disappointing with our first visit here. We wanted to try somewhere different and out of town, which they had good parking and sitting facilities inside and out. We are a family of 4, we ordered 4 hot drinks and asked if they did a childrens hot chocolate which they didn't it was just a small size cup so was still quite a lot for them to drink and also hold a mug/cup ages 3 and 5 (maybe this is something to consider in future smaller drink options for children and a cheaper price option for them) we also ordered a slice of cake, hot sausage roll, and babybel and it all came out at different times with cake being first then a good 5-10mins after, the hot sausage roll as people was being served in between the sausage roll being cooked and then had to go up and remind them about the babybel for the children. The hot chocolate was disappointing to as a hot chocolate should be sweet and velvety tasting but this was very rich and strong flavour as if it was a dark hot...

We have recently celebrated my friends baby shower at the lovely coffee corner and the entire experience from start to finish (including planning) has been an absolute delight! The girls were so helpful throughout and I can’t thank them enough. I was originally a bit dubious about how the space would fit 27 adults and 3 kids but thanks to the professionalism at coffee corner, it didn’t even feel like a squeeze and the space looked beautiful. They also catered to all dietary requirements and personally as a vegan I didn’t feel like I was missing out at all, my platter was amazing! I will definitely be recommending coffee corner for anyone planning any baby showers or any other event, thanks...
