A vibrant new foodie destination opened its doors on Fridat 4 July in the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon. Introducing Quill & Cup, an independent café and relaxed dining space from Wells & Co, located next to the iconic Cox’s Yard. Warm, welcoming and full of flavour, it’s a place to start your day with coffee, unwind over seasonal lunches or enjoy a relaxed drink and a bite to eat - all just steps from a scenic riverside stroll.

Fusing Stratford-Upon-Avon’s rich literary spirit with a modern café aesthetic, Quill & Cup is set to become a new local favourite. Its signature offer? Comforting, creative dishes made with fresh, quality ingredients and a standout crumble menu that gives the humble dessert a new spotlight. It’s exclusive ‘Crumb & Get It’ is a love letter to the classic pud, with generous toppings, seasonal fruit combinations and irresistible flavour twists. All homemade, guests will be able to top their favourite crumble choices with either luxurious hot vanilla custard or delicious soft whipped ice cream.

Quill & Cup has officially opened its doors, welcoming guests with a series of thoughtful touches designed to make everyone feel at home. Families are catered for with complimentary craft kits for little ones and a dedicated child-friendly space inside. Dogs are also warmly welcomed, with fresh water bowls and a cosy outdoor seating area ideal for relaxed summer visits. A curated playlist adds to the laid-back, inviting atmosphere that defines this new neighbourhood spot.

The Quill & Cup’s deputy manager, Agatha Hayward, commented on the launch saying: “We’ve loved welcoming Stratford Upon Avon locals and visitors from further afield to the café this last week. We’re really proud of the seasonal menu and carefully curated drinks list, and can’t wait to see more people enjoying this spot throughout summer and beyond. We’ve particularly enjoyed watching visitors enjoy our single serve crumble pots, typically with generous serving of soft whipped ice cream amidst the balmy summer heat!”
