About Urban Larder

Small in size but big on personality, the space is bright, rustic, and packed with local character. There’s a laid-back community vibe here, with a mix of regulars, students, and travellers enjoying quality coffee and comforting food in a calm, unfussy setting. Seating is limited, so expect it to fill up quickly during peak brunch hours – but it’s worth the wait if you can snag a spot.

What’s good? The toasties are the star of the show. Made with sourdough bread and generous fillings like cheddar & kimchi or chorizo & mozzarella, they’re satisfying, simple, and full of flavour. Prices are very reasonable, with most toasties and light bites between £5–£8. There are vegan and veggie options too, and a small selection of cakes and pastries at the counter.

Coffee is roasted locally and prepared with care – ideal for caffeine lovers. There’s also loose-leaf tea, iced drinks, and occasional guest brews on the board.

Whether you’re working remotely, catching up with a friend, or just want a relaxed start to the day, Urban Larder is a gem. It’s casual, friendly, and full of the kind of thoughtful touches that make small independents so worth supporting.
