Review Art Bank - Shepton Mallet

Ah the place is quite special. Beautiful building. Big windows. Sense of spaciousness. Smiley people who make your coffee. They love my dog Daisy. Sipping coffee under a tree, in a cafe, in Shepton Mallet, was not quite my plan this summer but has proven to be my favorite ritual of the day. Beautiful, artistic, open, relaxing, character, colours, creation, music

This is the place for a great coffee and a relax. Lots of Art on display, workshops/activities available and live music. Staff are friendly and very helpful. A true hub for the community.

I'd award fifteen stars on each measure if I could. Beautiful place, we loved the home produced look, Cuban music or similar, and everyone was relaxed. Even the young person serving late Sunday afternoon who wasn't familiar with a machiatto. From a little description she cheerfully produced a perfect coffee. I wish we lived nearby

Absolutely fantastic must-see creative art place with wonderful food and lovely people. We enjoyed it VERY much, didn't know where to look first with all the creative artwork around us. Sure we will be back, best of luck to you

A very special venue. Like nowhere else. The northern soul nights there are amazing.

Such a fabulous place. Quirky art inspired by Alice in Wonderland. A cosy and retro atmosphere. We forgot our wallet, and the guy gave us a cup of tea for free! Cake looked marvellous! Also serving alcohol/food on certain evenings (but not every day).

Great venue with a cool arty, alternative vibe. Makes a nice change to all the usual chain stores.

Mary Billett

Best brownies ever. Toasties are great too. Great atmosphere and such wonderfully friendly staff.

What a gem of a community art cafe location. Inspiring and inclusive. I wish there was one of these in every town!!

Stopped for a drink & a cake unfortunately they have 7 different teas but no green tea 😢 but my husband had a coffee which he said was lovely and I had cake lime and coconut, which was yummy. Such an interesting place, loads to look at. I'd definitely go back and make sure I have a tea bag with me !

A great quirky cafe/bar/art gallery/performance venue. Sit amongst various art installations, enjoy a cup of tea, great cakes, soft and alcoholic drinks. This (you may have guessed) is an ex-bank building with much of the traditional high-ceilinged and high windowed character retained. But unlike banks, it is the venue for many alternative, off-the-wall art and cultural events and workshops. We'll worth a visit to see what's going on.

Stopped for a quick coffee in this quaintly decorated not for profit cafe. The staff were both professional and friendly. While the coffee lay pleasantly on the palate. The cakes looked delicious and I will be trying them on my next visit.

Friendly service, yummy cakes and so much to look at. It's a visual feast being in the Art Bank Cafe, a welcoming new community venue. It's great seeing how much beauty can be created and fun can be had by producing vibrant, funky art from other peoples rubbish. Also a very relaxing, creative space to meet with friends for a cuppa and a catch-up.

James Walton

Tasty food, amazing cakes, super cool venue. We will be going back.
