So… What are we all about?
Grind n Bake Coffee House started in 2009, Our aim is simple, it’s to offer the best quality coffee and choice of coffees unrivalled in the county. We have a range of 4 speciality roasts plus an exceptional Swiss washed Decaf, and if that wasn’t enough we have a seasonal filter coffee too. Our coffee is provided by our sister company Viking Coffee. 250g bags of coffee are available to purchase in store to take home either whole bean or ground to your specific requirements. You can also order online at VIKING COFFEE and we will deliver.
That’s the Grind bit explained, the bake bit is our Sausage rolls, savoury slices, pasties all freshly baked all day every day on the premises. We also make all our baguettes, rolls and hot sandwiches fresh every day. We are an independent business and proud, we pride ourselves in giving our customers a good variety in our offering, adapting to their needs and wishes and my team knowing who they are and giving the best customer service they can in a great environment. In today’s fast paced world sometimes you only hear a polarised version of a business via social media reviews, I very much believe in the traditional way of tell us when you love it, tell us when you don’t and everything in between.
As a customer there are many coffee shops out there to choose from, as an independent we would always advocate trying one first. Sure you can go to Costa, Starbucks, Nero’s etc but quite frankly why would you want to, when there is so much more variety and choice elsewhere??
We look forward to seeing you soon
Coffee is a language in itself…
Whats with the name?
When you first hear it you might think it’s a bit strange. There are many interpretations and we’ve heard them all! In reality it’s simple, it’s a combination of the two core elements of what we do.
Grind: It’s all about quality and flavour, we can’t give a good cup of coffee without good quality coffee beans. Our coffee beans are only ground as we make each cup of your coffee, so it’s always fresh as a daisy.
Bake: Our hot savouries are baked though out the day so they’re always hot and fresh.
Oh and yes we know there should also be a ‘ on the left side of the “n” but hey nobody’s perfect!!
As long as there is coffee in the world, how bad can things be?
Our Coffee
We use Viking Coffee which is our own brand of hand roasted espresso. Our espresso blend works well either just on its own or cuts through milk in a latte, cappuccino or flat white to still deliver that great coffee taste and a smooth balance of flavour. We use only the finest sourced green coffee beans . Each month we change our filter coffee to showcase different coffee producing countries and farms, so there’s always a something new to try. You can now purchase coffee from the online shop at VIKING COFFEE. You can have fresh hand roasted coffee delivered straight to your home. As a trade customer we can deliver directly to your business.

Community
Local people are really important to us, they’re central to what we do. We advertise local events. We support young people in work, by ensuring we always have space for under 18’s that are doing studies, and have yet to join the full time work market. We give our end of night unsold food to a local charity which is then distributed to the local homeless.
