Sarah and Mia (and all the other team members) are welcoming, hospitable, really lovely. The coffee is the best in the town, and probably the world. Grant, the proprietor and chief roaster is a lovely person with the calmness and spirit of one who knows. The goods on offer are often local, primarily independent and have good ethics at the core.

This is by far my all time favorite coffee shop, there are a huge selection of choices that manage to cater for everyone and almost all the produce and products sold help support loads of local businesses! Nutmeg is a local haven, not many coffee shops give you the chance to drink coffee from beans roasted just a few miles away, not to mention that every coffee is also served with care and love from all the amazing staff 3 Thank you guys so much ;)

I’ve been going here for years. It’s the only place I go. It’s so much more than a place to have the best coffee in town, it’s also a community. They champion local produce, serve a small but high quality selection of sweet treats and savoury dishes, and always have a kind word and smile for each of their customers. Great work team Nutmeg and Coldblow Coffee

By far the best coffee. Delicious toasties and cakes too. Great cheeses and other deli items. Such a friendly little place, I have been going in for years now and have formed many new friends in there initially just sharing tables. Highly recommend!

This is our favourite cafe! Amazing hot chocolate and food (especially the lemon feather cake and sourdough toasties). We always feel welcomed and enjoy our (very frequent) visits. Small but friendly cafe. Love it there!
