A Place to Eat, Sip & Feel at Home
At The Box Cafe, we’ve created a warm and welcoming space built from two shipping containers in the heart of Gorse Lane Industrial Estate. Step inside and you’ll be greeted with a smile and an atmosphere where you instantly feel part of the gang, a homely space that feels a world away from what’s just outside the metal walls.
Delicious Food, Great Coffee & a Place with a Friendly Vibe
We’re all about delicious food, good quality coffee and creating a space that feels special from the moment you walk in. Think plants, wood flooring, black bar with a deep green backdrop, mix matched chairs and lots of personal touches. For us it’s a home from home.
We love hearing your stories, having a laugh, and doing our very best to make sure you feel completely yourself here. Whether you’re joining us for breakfast, catching up with friends over lunch, planning an event, or grabbing something to go, we’re here to look after you.
A Warm Welcome and Seriously Good Food
Have a look at the menu, book a table (we’ve got 12 mixmatched seats ), or get in touch for a chat about your upcoming event. Everything we do is about making it simple for you to relax, enjoy great food, and feel completely looked after.
Welcome to The Box Cafe –
Have a scroll through and get a feel for the space – clean lines, natural colours, round wooden tables, mix‑matched chairs, and personal touches that make it feel relaxed and welcoming. Built from two shipping containers, it blends a modern industrial edge with lots of greenery. And the best part? The sound inside isn’t clanging metal and forklifts – it’s coffee steaming, laughter bouncing off the walls, and the cosy hum of a café you’d never expect to find on an industrial estate.
