Welcome The 1867 –  A place for COFFEE. FOOD. FRIENDS.

Tucked inside the courtyard at Heart of the Shires Shopping Village, the 1867 isn’t just an eatery, it’s a favourite meeting spot, a celebration venue, and a peaceful stop on a busy day.

Whether you’re catching up over breakfast, indulging in afternoon tea, or simply enjoying a great coffee, we make sure every visit feels relaxed, thoughtful, and bespoke to you.

.

What’s on the Menu?

We serve up breakfast, lunch, and treats daily, plus a few things you might not expect, like our rotating specials, celebration teas, and house cocktails. Everything is freshly made, and our menu changes with the seasons, keeping things interesting and delicious.

Guests can dine inside our characterful eatery, outside in the courtyard, or grab a takeaway drink or bite from the COFFEE Bar.

Afternoon Tea with a Twist

We’re known for our themed Afternoon Teas, and we like to keep them playful. From the elegance of Christmas Afternoon Festivi-Tea to the mystery of Trick or TrEAt, there’s always something creative steeping in the teapots. You’ll need to book 24 hours in advance and yes, we cater for dietary requirements with a little notice.

Any special get-together can be bespoke to you and your FRIENDS.

"We get up every day to do our best and all of us want you to enjoy your stay – in fact, we want you to leave the 1867, feeling better than you came in."
