The Café is here for all, offering a different atmosphere and environment to commercial ventures; a peaceful place to come by yourself or with friends and family.
We are here to serve the city in many different ways, including providing a place for over 50 volunteers to be valued. Without our volunteers this Café would not function.
We operate a pay £2 system for those struggling to pay. We will, of course, always be grateful to receive donations from anyone wishing to support the work of St Stephen’s in this way.
The food is mostly homemade or made on the premises. Our coffee is supplied by blue bear coffee, find out more about their values at bluebearcoffee.com
The Café exists to hold people alongside each other

The Church has a heart to reach out and welcome people into the community

Café Manager
The Café is a way in which St Stephen’s Church cares for the community that God has placed us in. The Café is an open and welcoming place where anyone can come to buy a meal or a drink, no matter their circumstances. We believe in the principle of ‘eat, drink, share, pay what you know is fair’ and therefore refreshments are available for a minimum of £2.
The Café is a place of welcome, refreshment and peace for volunteers and customers alike.
