I’ve been on my café journey for almost a year now and
though I’ve been to some awesome themed cafes and some slightly odd ones too I haven’t
yet been to one quite like this! I’ve swapped my usual four o’clock tea and
cake for eight o’clock and a soft drink at Fuggles, the ‘beer café’ (what?! It has
‘café’ in the title!) This is so different from anywhere I’ve been so far and I
love it! Though, of course, tea is my preferred drink I do like to go to the
pub with some friends and when I spotted Fuggles I knew I had to try it out!
Inside the single room is kitted out like a swanky bistro
with a wooden floor and tables and low lighting, I especially love the beer taps
on the wall behind the bar, offering far more options than I have ever seen in
a pub. Lots of small, changeable blackboards above these taps list the many
beers for sale as well as the wines and also some great looking food. Above it
all the ceiling is covered with bare beams and large silver ducts and these, coupled
with the tin adverts on the walls, create a wonderful warm, retro feel to the
whole place. Down the back of the bar, where my friends and I are sat are comfy
(really comfy) sofas and lower tables if you feel like being a bit more
relaxed.
In the evening the atmosphere is that of any trendy pub,
food is served till half past ten and the crowds are heaving, if you see a
spare table, you have to run quick! I think there is music too but its really hard
to tell under all the din of the entire place talking at once! The thing I really
like about Fuggles is the friendly atmosphere, all the staff are lovely and the
customers seem to be having a good time too. Highly recommended!
