Hidden in the heart of the Cotswolds, Tetbury may be known for its royal connections and antique shops, but for coffee lovers, it’s a quiet paradise waiting to be sipped. The scent of freshly ground beans drifts down the cobbled streets, leading you from one cozy café to the next. Whether it’s the artsy nook of Café 53 with its mismatched furniture and oat milk flat whites, or the refined charm of The Yellow-Lighted Bookshop’s tiny coffee counter, Tetbury serves caffeine with character. Here, your cappuccino comes with a side of local gossip and maybe even a Prince Charles sighting if you’re lucky.

What makes Tetbury’s coffee scene special isn’t just the drinks—it’s the people and the pace. Baristas remember your name (and your dog’s), locals linger over lattes like it’s a sport, and the pastries are dangerously good. Sit outside and watch vintage Land Rovers rumble by, or hunker down indoors with a book and the rain tapping the windows. In Tetbury, every cup tells a story, and somehow, every story tastes better with a shot of espresso.
