Cold day in May made much warmer by brownies, tea and coffee. My husband said coffee & brownie was exceptional. I would say the same only with their great tea.

A very friendly welcome from the staff, not faked! We ordered coffee, tea, hot chocolate, juice and cake and sat down. A nice clean airy cafe. The drinks came.... The coffee excellent, my husband said it was the second best coffee he had ever tasted! Tea was from Teapigs, which is superb. The c Hot chocolate was lovely and creamy,... More

This is the second visit to this establishment and after an early coffee stop in Shipston this was ten times better, friendly staff and clean tables always a winner for us Many thanks

We tend to use Box Brownie, whenever we're in Stratford-normally 2 or 3 times per month. Food, coffee and service always perfect. My wife espcially likes the 'Teapigs' tea

Always go to Box Brownie when visiting Stratford. The coffee is bean to cup, all the best ingredients in their food and brilliant service. We always plan our visit so we can fit in a sandwich and some delicious cake. Love it.

Went with high expectations having read about Box Brownie on trip advisor... #1 in Stratford. Good coffee. Soggy sausage roll. Ok brownie. Way below the expectations I had from the reviews. Don't think the boss was in... Staff weren't friendly or welcoming, just did the bare minimum.

Some things you fall in love with instantly and stick with you for a long time... others are simple, happy little places or items you find every once in while that made you smile for the moment but didn't leave a large impression. The Box Brownie is definitely one of those instantaneous little moments that last a lifetime, so much... More

We went here for breakfast, but all they did was bacon rolls, fine but not the reason to go. Coffee very good - but strong - in fairness they have a big sign to warn you (i still missed it) , cakes are excellent, brownie and lemon drizzle get top marks!

My partner & I made the hour trip yet again to Stratford to indulge in the scrumptious signature brownies & smooth coffee. The Box Brownie may be small but it more than towers over the myriad of chain style sub standard offerings that line the streets of Stratford. The service is excellent. The owner is such a warm & friendly... More

The coffee and cakes were excellent. The staff friendly and helpful. The premises are however very small and therefore very crowded. The weather was too cold to sit outside, but in high summer this may be the thing to do.
