Teacake in Shepreth

The mention of teacake conjures up thoughts of sweet scrumtuous delights to be savoured. And that certainly sums up teacake in Shepreth.

It provides a sincere friendly welcome, home baked cakes and fare.Plus local crafts and good quality provisions.All topped with ready knowledge of all the local area has to offer.

This delightful tea shop recently opened is the community based brain child of the innovative owners. With the closure of the local eatery and the post office they wanted to re ignite the spirit of Shepreth and unselfishly promote other local attractions too. An idea that others in these austere times would do well to follow.

Treat yourself to a visit to cupcake and share in their enviable example of bringing life to a community.

Run by the charming Christine & friendly Morris this fantastic tea shop / coffee house is a massive asset to the area. All treats & cakes are made freshly on site, with an array of inventive yumminess to choose from! Their is the option to eat in a lovely seated area with fresh flowers or take out. There is a lovely garden at the back for either parking bikes out of harms way or to enjoy your tea on a warm day.

Dogs are welcome in the outside area - it's not enclosed.

My husband and I had a rare day off together and was recommended Teacake by a friend so we thought we would give it a try for lunch - and are so pleased we did....what a find.

Based in a quaint cottage setting on what I believe was the site of Shepreths old village shop, Teacake is run by a lovely friendly couple who are so helpful and enthusiastic about their business. While we were there many customers popped in and brought local produce such as honey, pressed apple juice and a variety of bread.

We both sampled one of the many interesting teas on offer, I had

The old Post Office and shop in Shepreth, has been tastefully converted into a tea and coffee shop - Teacake.

I have been twice, once on opening day and then three weeks later.

The cakes are homemade - I had scones straight out of the oven - mouthwateringly good and I enjoyed the best latte for a long while.

The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and I can see this cafe becoming the 'must meet' location for friends in the South West Cambridge/Royston area.

Totally recommended.
