Internet cafe in Bedford

“Lovely staff who were very welcoming and the food was delicious. Great value for money and the portions were generous. Far better than big coffee shop chains. I recommend the grilled chicken and coffee frappe. Will definitely be returning!”

“I always have the brunch but take out tomatoes and mushrooms because I’m in the carnivore diet. I’ve designed this poster because I want everyone to pop in and enjoy the atmosphere and great food.”

“Can get very busy at the weekend. Check the facebook page for different themed events. Saturday 10-2pm typically is Pokémon time, where an army of kids trade and buy cards. They have a good selection of drinks and custom milkshakes. Aswell as food menu items. Good for kids and adults of all ages. Ps: they also have a free board game area with a wide selection of board games to play for free. (But also buy).”

“Absolutely recommend River Cafe if you want a great breakfast and outstanding service. Staff are always friendly and accommodating for kids and the food is spot on.”

“Really tasty food, very friendly staff.”

“In truth, I don't really like cats. If I am close to them I tend to sneeze and get sore eyes, so I can't really enjoy cat based interactions. However, cats seem to like me so I am destined to sneeze through this life. Assuming you like cats, and you like cafes with cats in, you're quite likely to enjoy it here. Book in advance, and don't leave kids unattended. The cats might play, or they might ignore you. Cats are cats and do what they want, but you probably already know that.”

“Neat and clean cafe on Bedford high street. Prices are reasonable, food is amazing, variety of food and drinks to choose from and most importantly staff is really welcoming.”

“Wanted to try a new coffee shop after our swim in Flitwick and heard very good things about Surfin Cafe. It did not disappoint! Lovely setting, coffee, food. Amazing music too! Sipping my drink to realise I was listening to Pink Floyd and The Smiths, topped off an already excellent experience. Personally greeted by the owner or maybe manager, not too sure but a thick Scottish accent was a nice touch. I would thoroughly recommend!”

“Excellent service and good food at a reasonable price”

“I had the sopa da pedra, a sausage and bean soup, I’ve had it somewhere else before and loved it, and it was just as good here, and very reasonably priced too… I love Portuguese cafes, make you feel like you’re on holiday when you visit one! Also had a hot chocolate, which was lovely, so much better than mediocre ones you get most places. The lady who serves was very warm and friendly too, and they have newspapers which is great as that seems to be becoming like something from the past”

“Adorable Tiny Café - the Owner and team so friendly. Secret Gem of Bedford!”

“Ordered 2 waffles, a biscoff and a chocolate one. They delivered the waffles within half an hour and they were absolutely delicious! The ice cream was lush and both waffles were amazing. I'll definitely be ordering again :) (They threw in a freebie sweets aswell, thank you.)”

“Amazing food cooked perfectly! Food options are brilliant, pizzas, paninis, fresh smoothies and beautiful cakes! They even sell homemade bread! The staff are always friendly and happy to help in any way possible! There’s plenty of room to chill with friends, grab lunch or get some work done! Couldn’t recommend any more highly!”

“Made us feel like part of the family, great food and personable service!”

“Great staff, with even better food in an excellent environment! Will definitely be coming back!”

“First visit but won’t be the last. Good service, great food and fabulous ice cream milk shakes. Exceptional crepe. Toilet clean. All in all a great place.”

“I LOVE THIS PLACE!! It is hands down one of my favorite memories from visiting the UK in July 2023. I still think about the fries and scampi I had because they were so good. 10/10!”

“This cafe is a good place to stop whilst on a walk, a bike ride or even if you are going to the park. With a wide selection of cakes and drinks then cafe has a favourite choice of everyone's. Prices are quite reasonable and staff are really friendly and well mannered.”

“It is a basic cafe with a good selection of options using what appeared to be fresh ingredients where possible. It was clean Toilets were clean Food was what I expected at the price advertised. Staff were friendly without being fake about it. We cleared our plates and didn't leave hungry. Perhaps a radio on or a bit of music might help the atmosphere but not a big deal. I'm not saying this is the type of place you would arrange your day around but as I was passing and fancied a quick bite to eat we gave it a go. Pic is of a Jacket spud with butter, cheese & beans. (Likely some marg type spread instead of butter but it tasted fine) Salad was lovely and fresh.”

“I walked here from the town centre, it was approximately 1.5 mile along the Nene Valley, which is a river and it's surrounding wetlands. The cafe is very nice, it's in the same building as Northampton Active, which hire kayaks and rafts, the toilets are also shared (Waterside Cafe & Northampton Active).”

“Booked for a large family table for a Sunday roast! Was absolutely delicious, so kind to the children! The cauliflower cheese was to die for, everything was just so yummy. Staff so friendly and helpful and made you feel very at home. Will deffo be back!”

“Always friendly staff and great service.”

“Had a coffee while I waited for my car to be serviced so was there a while. Quite a few elderly people came in on their own, and I was very impressed with how friendly the staff were to them, taking the time to stop for a chat, bringing drinks over them if they couldn't manage to carry them, and generally checking in that they were ok.”
