Henry's Cafe Bookshop & Antiques

We visited this lovely little cafe on a wet Saturday afternoon. I was on the quest for a coffee and cake and wasn't disappointed. First off, service was amazing - from the friendly greeting, to the table service it was amazing. I came in for cake - ended up ordering from the menu for a light lunch. I went for the meat lasagne and my partner the carrot and courgette soup. Perfectly honest, we did not really expect what we got! The soup arrived in a good sized bowl, steaming hot with obviously freshly made bread with real butter. My lasagne quickly followed with an equally impressive portion being served - with a nice side salad and more of the bread and butter. I am often disappointed with lasagne, but not this time. Freshly made, lovely crisp cheese topping, good meaty sauce and lovely creaminess with the pasta. My feeble words do not do it any credit. My partner thoroughly enjoyed her soup - she described it as the lunch she didn't know she wanted until she had it. Now the cake.... I went for the fruit cake and what a beautiful slab of it I got! Moist, fruity and fresh. Took me back to being a kid an my gran making Dundee cake for new year My Americano coffees were equally good and the lady grey tea well received. Thank you for such a lovely welcome and amazing food and drinks.

We called into Upton on the way back home looking for a spot of lunch. Come across Henry's Café what a lovely little gem. The building itself with it's books is cracking. Excellent service and great menu but do not expect to find big lunch menus it's not that sort of place but light lunch spot on. Food was tasty and fresh and if you are a cake person (who isn't). You will not be disappointed. We will be popping in again 👍🏻.
