Only just got around to doing a review, myself, my husband and my little girl (7 months old) visited around three weeks ago. We were greeted as soon as we walked through the door by a lovely young man. I explained to him our allergies, my daughter and I are both allergic to dairy and soya, straight away he was able to tell us what we could have of which there was a lot to choose from. We always struggle when eating out but his confidence with providing the information made me feel confident that we wouldn't have a reaction. I had a lovely fresh wrap with chicken and salad, and we all had some cake, the guy even did a little pot of nibbles for my daughter from the salad counter which she loved and munched on on our picnic and all the way back home! Different chopping boards were used for myself and my husband (whom doesn't have any allergies) along with different jugs on the blender (we had a smoothie) it's the little things that really make a difference and I felt he really understood or difficulties rather than making me feel like I was being an inconvenience like many cafes/restaurants do. I have recommended this cafe to everyone I know with allergies along with my family and friends as the customer service...

Not fond of the New York deli toastie.
Drinks: Mocha and latte were basic, but good. Raspberry ripple milkshake wasn’t very thick & didn’t taste of much.
Staff: super friendly!
Overall atmosphere of place: Gorgeous upstairs and very historical. Tables a...
Read moreMyself and partner decided to take a trip to Shrewsbury today. We have been past Taste several times on previous visits but never been in until today. We were greeted by a lovely young lady who seated us upstairs and took our order of two breakfasts, a latte and a strong black coffee. The drinks arrived and were piping hot and the black coffee was the perfect strength. Our food arrived very quickly and it was obvious it had been made with quality ingredients and by somebody who actually cared.
Upon paying for our food, we also purchased a slice of Victoria sandwich, a peanut butter cake and chocolate and custard slice. I commented to the lady in charge about how wonderful our food, drink and service had been. We will definitely be seeing you again. Ps, the take away cakes have just blown us away too! Thank you to all the team at...
