Frescoes Coffee House

Had a gorgeous slice of baked apple bakewell cake. Did an art workshop there

One of my favourite cafes in Bedford, the food is good and hearty. They’re priced well, have a nice selection and the best part is the staff are so lovely, been there soo many times because they just make it a lovely experience to come back.

A lovely little café with a nice atmosphere and good vibes. They have some good vegan options, so I'll be back! Lovely place to sit and journal/read for a bit.

Absolutely love Frescoes. Amazing breakfast and a fab service. One of the things I love the most is that the breakfasts are "suggestions" and you can add and remove items.

The place itself is cosy, almost a bit too cosy, but the unique decor and art gallery are very nice, the small size means that the beverages area is fully exposed, which looks nice and shows the cleanliness of the place. I was primarily here for the coffee, and I was not too happy with it. The double espresso i ordered was bitter and almost tasted burnt, the pros are that it was not too watery despite the comparatively larger portion size and the machine expelling coffee quicker than other machines i have witnessed, the crema was quite abundant although it was very pale. The coffee i got had very little acidity or sweetness although i did pick up faint chocolatey notes. Overall I don't think I would be back here any time soon as the coffee is really quite bad with a strange aftertaste.

Lovely food and good coffee and a nice choice of different food on the menu

Nice place, unique decor and some friendly staff. However got a drink wrong and we let the staff know and they did not remake the drink, just did a quick fix instead. Ordered a bacon and scrambled egg bagel, there was only enough scrambled eggs for one half of the bagel, everything else was good though. expensive as we only ordered two drinks and a bagel and were charged £22 when it only should’ve cost £14.20.
