In the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley

There’s nothing better than a warm welcome and a great cuppa after a day exploring the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley. Whether you’re looking for a café for a hearty breakfast, a tea room serving homemade cakes, or a scenic spot to refuel after a long walk, you’ll find plenty of choices across the region.

From quirky, independent cafés with artisan coffee to traditional tearooms offering homemade scones and afternoon tea, there’s something to suit every mood. Many of the region’s cafés pride themselves on using locally sourced ingredients, offering everything from light bites and homemade soups to indulgent hot chocolates and freshly baked treats.

Settle into a rustic woodland café, enjoy riverside views, or find a welcoming stop in one of the bustling market towns. Many cafés cater to walkers, cyclists, and dog owners, ensuring there’s always a friendly place to rest and recharge.

Whether you're starting the day with a freshly brewed coffee, taking a midday break with a homemade lunch, or winding down with afternoon tea and a slice of cake, the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley’s cafés offer the perfect place to relax, refuel, and soak in the surroundings.
