    Simple and good cafe, coffee, espresso and hot drinks, and such… Actually Bridgerton was filmed here and it was one of the stops on the tour. The staff are kind and charming, generous as well. I ordered the wrong thing and they quickly helped replace it. The courtyard to which the business is positioned is also quaint. All in all a nice place to have a good pick me up drink. Cheers!

    Really good coffee and super nice staff. The bon bon is worth a try, even though it might be too sweet. Caution: the cakes are also really sweet (and delicious!) Great place to sit in and chill while people watching. There is sitting both outside and inside.

    The coffee quality was excellent and the sandwiches were good. It is possible to sit inside or outside in the courtyard. Personnel and visitors were friendly and patient. This is not a fast food place, everything is prepared individually with time and care. The coffees are prepared by a Barrista and beautiful to look at too. Thank you for the great moments we spent in your Café. I would definitely come again.

    Great little coffee shop with outdoor seating. I had an excellent flat white, and it came very quickly too! The shop also had a choice of coffee gear and beans for sale too!

    Great quality coffee in a nice corner of Bath's city centre. The interior is small, but they have tables outside. It can get very busy, but staff is kind.

    What a nice place. Super friendly staff, nice atmosphere and last but not least the coffee is fantastic. Try their cakes as well because they are heavenly. We were on a short two day holiday to Bath and this was our go to coffee shop. It’s very close to the abbey but just a little bit away from the main streets. If you are a real coffee lover than look no further.

    I came to Bath recently, for the first time, on a mini little break before starting at the University part time. I did my research before travelling, and decided to go here to grab a hot chocolate after reading the good reviews! I popped by on a Monday morning before 9am. I enjoyed the atmosphere of the shop and was warmly greeted by the staff, who were friendly and helpful in aiding me in deciding whether to have an alternative milk or not/how each may affect the experience etc. I went for the dark hot chocolate (note: they only do dark and white hot chocolates) with oat milk. You can see them use proper chocolate to make this - none of that powder stuff! I wondered about my morning with hot chocolate in hand and took a sip, with the beverage being the perfect temperature for drinking almost instantly. This was truly decadent and rich in cocoa from the dark chocolate. It was thick enough to be luxurious, but not too thick making it heavy/feeling you were drinking a milkshake! I would say that this was definitely a dark hot chocolate, and while I enjoyed the slight bitterness, I feel those wanting a super sweet hot chocolate may not be as satisfied with this (perhaps preferring the white hot chocolate on offer here). I would definitely return to and recommend others visit The Columbian Company for their morning beverage, I'd also love to give some of their baked goods a go which looked great!

    Nice little cosy coffee place on the corner. Its ideal for couples or one person sit down. We were a big group but managed to sit at various two seaters. The service was great considering they were two on the floor. The coffees were nice and hot and the pastries, cakes and toasties delish and the price was spot on! I would definitely visit again.

    The coffee was nutty and creamy with lovely heart pattern. The food was very nice and yummy. The staff was friendly and cheerful. It is appreciated that this coffee shop was support the fair trade to farmers.

    If you're looking for a delicious coffee served with a smile, this is the place to go. A testament to their talents as a team and the incredible beans roasted by the owner, the Abbey store is always bustling and buzzing with energy (and caffeine!) Every time I have a friend visit Bath, I always bring them to the Colombian to show off just how amazing their coffee is. 10/10 on all fronts. My only criticism is that every other coffee I've had since hasn't quite lived up to their standard, honestly.

    Delicious cakes and great coffee! Been here a few times as I love a good coffee 🤭 Small place, can get very busy with no seats left inside. They have outdoors seats which are great in summer time. Worth a visit for sure if you're into your coffee

    First thing I do in a new city is have a good cup of coffee, usually makes or breaks my whole trip.. this was the best possible start for a trip to Bath! Great authentic Colombian coffee, and amazing apple cake! Cake was just right, not too sweet, and the perfect combination of flavors.. If you’re around definitely try coffee and cake at thus little coffeeshop..

    Visited over April bank holiday, great choice of coffees, cakes and snacks. All three of us had a different coffee and were equally happy with. The same with the cakes which were moist, fruity and delicious. They also has some outside seating with tables as well.

    hands down best cappuccino of my life. rich velvety foam (even w my soy milk) and v solid coffee taste (not just a sea of milk as in some places). staff were adorable and more than accommodating of my late decision to extra-shot it. also stools outside have lovely view. superb place to start your day in Bath!

    Nice coffee shop in the centre of Bath. Good selection of cakes and things to enjoy. The cakes are especially good. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Recommended

    Cute and quirky spot with delicious coffee and friendly staff. We ordered a pain au chocolat and an almond croissant for breakfast which were to die for!

    This fantastic little speciality coffee shop is located in the middle of Bath and I stumbled across it when needing a caffeine hit on a recent shopping trip. The coffee was delicious, a standard small is a 6oz double ristretto and I got a flat white, it was as good as anything I'd get back home in Australia which is the best compliment I can think of. The baristas were super friendly and told me how they purchase their coffee from a single farm in Colombia and this year were able to buy their whole crop. Great coffee, great service, great little shop (they also have one in Bristol), I highly recommended it.
