Goodies Café

Nestled in the heart of Lambourn, Goodies Café is much more than your average neighbourhood spot—it’s a charming haven for anyone seeking a truly satisfying café experience. From the moment you step through its doors at 17 High Street, you're greeted by an inviting atmosphere that perfectly balances the cozy comfort of a traditional English café with a friendly, modern vibe.

Goodies Café prides itself on serving a diverse menu that caters to both classic tastes and contemporary cravings. The English Breakfast here is a standout, boasting generous portions and even accommodating meat-free options without compromising on flavour—a detail that delighted customer Julie Wallace, who praised both the quality and the value. For lighter bites or a mid-afternoon treat, their freshly baked cakes like the rich carrot cake, moist vanilla cake, and indulgent choc brownies are irresistible temptations that pair beautifully with their barista-crafted coffees.

Coffee lovers will find their perfect cup at Goodies Café. Whether you favour a smooth cortado, a frothy flat white, or a luxurious hot chocolate, each drink is expertly prepared, delivering depth and warmth that regulars like Matei Adrian and Vince Shepherd have come back for time and again. Vince’s enthusiastic account of stopping by on dirt bikes and feeling instantly welcomed by the polite, pleasant staff really captures the café’s warm, inclusive spirit.

The menu extends well beyond breakfast and cakes, offering heartier lunches that feel like homemade comfort food—think creamy mac & cheese, flaky homemade quiche, and a classic scampi and chips that satisfies both the soul and appetite. The Mini Buffet Lunch for two is a clever option for those wanting to share a taste of several dishes during a relaxing afternoon break.

What truly makes Goodies Café shine is its genuine sense of community and attention to detail. The staff are not only friendly and efficient but also create an environment where everyone, including four-legged friends welcomed in the front part of the café, feels at home. Reviews highlighting the prompt service and consistently packed tables confirm that Goodies Café has earned its reputation as a beloved local gem.

Whether you’re popping in for a robust mug of tea, indulging in a flavorful sausage sandwich, or catching up with friends over a “bacon roll and coffee” deal as praised by Wayne Tull, Goodies Café promises a memorable experience filled with hearty flavours, comforting ambiance, and the kind of personal touches that keep visitors coming back.
