Vennel's Cafe - Speisekarte

Excellent place! Delicious food and exceptional staff. They were so kind. Best cheese scones I’ve ever tasted. Definitely worth going to!

More than two tables! Upstairs it’s lovely. And so is the food and the service. Real tasty coffee. Real tasty home made scones…with jam and cream.

Coffee, cake and a bit of food. We all really enjoyed it. Would definitely tell people to have a visit. Staff were run off their feet but handled it marvellously. Kept tables wiped and clean.

We had a long wait but worth it! Absolutely fantastic coffee and hot chocolate. We didn't have any food because we had eaten something dreadful earlier from another place! Angry at myself for not finding this sooner. The upstairs and downstairs very well decorated. Brilliant service.

Popped into here today after visiting the Cathedral. Fantastic cafe which was full of customers and had a great menu. Even though full inside outside was okay with covers and heaters going. Dog friendly too inside and out. Great food was devoured by all of us and friendly service. Highly recommend.

Was the first time I've been to Vennels and I found it amazing. Although the Cafe was busy the staff were super friendly and managing well. Had a lovely Cappuccino and a baguette. I was amazed by how dog friendly the venue is with doggy ice cream available and staff offering to help with carrying trays thank you Sam! Overall I'd say this is a lovely hidden spot that I'm certain I will go back to.

Spacious yet cozy. Fantastic selection of savoury dishes and a mouthwatering choice of sweet cakes, pastries and more. I ordered a flat white and carrot cake. The cake was soft, sweet and delicious. The coffee also hit the spot. It was warm enough to sit outside as I was layered up nicely. I appreciate the extra touch of grey blankets on the outside seating in case it gets nippy. The women who served me even offered to turn the heat lamps on if I was cold, which was above and beyond. An excellent Café!

My wife and myself are currently holidaying in County Durham staying at the lovely Walworth Castle and spent today visiting Durham. Whilst there we spotted a sign for Vennel’s Cafe which is off the Main Street and 40 yards down the Vennel (a narrow passage way) so very easy to miss. That said it is very popular with the local residents particularly the students and was very busy on both our visits! I say both our visits as we found it very much to our liking with excellent coffees, cakes and scones! As such, I would strongly recommend this to other visitors provided, of course, they can find it!

Visited whilst in the city. Been before and really enjoyed our previous visit at lunch time. Today we decided to sample the full english breakfast. You go to the counter and order and pay and get what drinks you want and then they serve you at your table with your food. All staff we met were professional and really nice. The cafe is clean. Can't comment on the toilets as we didn't need to use them. Our breakfast arrived in good time it was beautifully presented and tasted really good. Good quality bacon and sausage used. Came with plenty of toast and butter. Would definitely recommend and come back.
