This is the best kept secret in Ipswich. Great service, best coffee, forget the others. The food is excellent; whether its Breakfast or a cheeky coffee but Lunch is fantastic from open sandwiches to baguettes; to the beautifulbeautifully presented salads or a bowl of chilli. You have a decent portion for a sensible price and a wonderful atmosphere to boot!
Lovely place, friendly staff, had a very tasty omelette and wife had a great sandwich, would highly recommend!!
My girlfriend and I always come here every week without fail. We love the warm atmosphere, friendly staff and the delicious simple food. Highly recommend for breakfast or lunch!
Delicious brunch for my husband's birthday. Always get a warm welcome, the food is prompt and tasty and reasonably priced. The Scottish breakfast of smoked salmon, scrambled eggs and toast is a real treat!
Great decor and atmosphere as I walked in, happy, friendly, well presented staff. Not 'busy' but order taken promptly and a tea delivered while I was deciding. Knew this was going to be a winner. Ordered scrambled egg with bacon, mushrooms and toast. Literally one of the best cooked breakfasts I've ever had. All cooked to perfection (or at least the way I like it!) scrambled egg not watery, mushrooms a little undercooked but weren't drenched in butter, still tasty. Toast and bacon- just right.
I wasn't singled out for this amazing experience either as everyone else who came in were greeted in the same cheery manner and left looking satisfied. It's a shame that I am only passing through as I would definitely return. Even if the food wasn't 100% (which it was!), the warm, family feel of the customer service would bring me back.
Great start to my day, thank you to all at Blends!!
New coffee spot! �
Randomly collected this mornings coffee from Blends ... well!!
I’ll be collecting again and again ... double vanilla late that hit the spot !!
First time visit for us today and what a wonderful place. Great choice, yummy food and welcoming and helpful staff! We loved it and will be back soon.

There are always specials on the board. The choice is wonderful. from sandwiches to jacket potatoes. omelettes and homemade soups. spoilt for choice. Thank you all xx
Such a lovely little place, Staff were so
Polite and cheerful, and the good was just amazeballs, especialy the freshly made Belgium Waffles with Maple Syrup and a scoop of lush Movenpick Ice cream. This will now be mine and wife's guilty pleasure 😈
I have been here a few times for a sandwich and tea before.But yesterday I went in for breakfast as I was working nearby and gotta say it was really good cooked to perfection and the staff are friendly and helpful.
Amazing food and coffee, very friendly and approachable staff, great atmosphere, been going there for years, would definitely recommend it, I'll always go back
Love it! Best cafe in town 5* Everything is homemade and staff are so friendly, thank you Blends
Been a family favourite for 15 years! Great food, drinks, service and venue.
It's a warm friendly relaxing place.staff are very attentive and service is excellent. Food is always well presented and very tasty.
I love these guys. Been having lovely food and drinks here forever.. keep it up Linda Mark and Daine Lomas 🖒🖒🖒
My favourite 'go to' place for lunch! Everything is delicious and the staff are friendly. We've been regularly stopping by for years.....So much so that my youngest daughter refers to it as 'our cafe'......Now wouldn't that be nice?!
Amazing family café shop run business, brilliant food , friendly staff.
Lovely staff, drinks and brilliant food. Plus a gluten free menu available as well as normal menu too. Good prices. Covid safe. Gluten free menu. Brilliant prices. Clean toilets. Step to toilet, clearly marked with black and yellow paint.
Stopped by for a light lunch. Service was good as we sat outside. Very enjoyable rest and recuperation.
We had breakfast outside. We have not needed to step inside to place an order. Instantly we have received menus. As quick we had what we ordered too. Which was delicious. Crispy baguette, really tasty latte. Staff have pulled umbrella and turned on heating for us too. Lovely that they thought about that. Competitive prices.
Delicious. I had the mini English breakfast and my partner had a sausage baguette. When they arrived it looked quite small, however the quality of the food was excellent and it was cooked very well. The tea which came in a pot and not a mug (👍🏻) and the coffee were also good. And of course it was all enough and we left feeling full and satisfied. Great value for money and was simply delicious! Will be returning and would highly recommend.
Food was outstanding. Apart from the moody girls the services was with a style. Had a breakfast and lunch there. The food was great in both instances
Popped in spontaneously as myself and my partner were hungry. Small, cosy place with a decent menu and not outlandishly priced. Busy but tables were available (our visit was during the week). Older gentleman on site was very attentive, but not pushy; we took some time to decide on what we wanted to order. Opted for a toasty each and they charged no more than the chained coffee shops ask for, so I don’t feel ripped off. Would return if that sort of food is what I’m after, but I wouldn’t necessarily go out of my way.
Wonderful place. Sat down very quickly. Service was was lovely and fast to order and to receive the food and coffees. Great vegetarian options I had a 10" tortilla wrap with pesto and feta cheese with salad. Tasted great and was just the right amount for a lunch. Would recommend to friends and family.
Absolutely fantastic Cafe, great food, service and atmosphere on football match day, even better as Maidstone won
We visited Blends yesterday for a light lunch, was not sure what to expect after cafes re opened after lockdown but it was a pleasant experience and everything was very clean etc. Our waitress had proper PPE on as did the servers behind the counter. The food was really nice and fresh , and well presented. We had a prawn mayo sandwich and jacket potato with chicken & pesto. Lovely little cafe , would recommend and will definitely come back
Very accommodating, we needed a table for 5. Very quickly they moved a table to give us 5 places and this was on a very busy Saturday. Drinks and meals delivered promptly. Meals were cooked to order. So lovely and hot. 4 of us had small all day breakfast, toast included in price. The other had a triple sandwich which came with salad, crisps and coleslaw. All presented well. Would highly recommend.
My husband and I had breakfast here yesterday. The welcome from the staff was great. Our order was taken promptly and the food arrived promptly too, lovely touch of using teapots (had decaf tea which was a bonus). The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend.
I love this place, been coming for years. Had a family breakfast just now for my daughter before going to uni and the owner accommodated our table of five outside. The food was amazing as always and the service is excellent. We recommend the oatcakes and the waffles
Great sandwich and side of crisps and salad and was really speedy and friendly service! Thank you!
Best cafe we have been in for a long long time. Beautifully clean and warm and friendly .proper tea pots and real tea . Great prices as well ,what more could you want.😊
Best in town,
glad to see places like this still available for us.
Lovely little cafe with fresh cooked food. Accommodating to our toddler and allowed us to order smaller meals for her. Friendly and great service every time
Friendly staff nice coffee, small toilets :)
I had a really nice breakfast at Blends this morning, warm friendly and welcoming atmosphere. 10/10
