    Amazing lovely place. The staff is literally adorable and friendly. A large choice of cakes, you can even ask depending on your proper taste, we have asked for a large cookie and we received an amazing sandwich cookie (not even available from the counter so do not hesitate😍) The place is lovely, lot of different small space with flowers around. Smoothie are fresh Afternoon tea seems just so yummy so it might worth it to come and try it and also take the time to book it as it is really busy on the weekend and we know why. The food is fresh, lot of variety on the menu Brunch are available until 12 but even after you will find what you want that's for sure 😍 Also please not that the crazy milkshakes are no more available but normal ones still are.

    Went last Sunday it was our second visit here and once again it didn't disappoint I'm normally a sweet tooth 😋 but I decided to go savoury and went for their sausage and egg sandwich in other cafes you're lucky if you get two sausages here there were at least three plus two eggs! I couldn't eat it all coffee great and all reasonably priced too and such lovely staff as well. If you're looking for great tasting food and coffee ☕ then this is definitely the place to go

    Went here for breakfast. Given a table fast (even thought it was busy) and got our order in fairly fast too. Very nice decoration and the food was really good too.

    The Vintage Birdcage Cakery ticks all the boxes. The food is of an exceptional standard and presented beautifully! The staff are welcoming and very helpful every time I visit and cannot do enough for you. You can see why it is so popular and a lot of it is down to the management and their approach to their business. It is a hidden gem in Yate Give the Vintage Birdcage Cakery a visit but I advise to book in the winter as seating is limited. Well Done Nicole the owner you are doing an amazing job!!

    Fantastic café on the edge of the park. We're not local but found it on Google maps. Courtyard and indoor seating. Varied menu - sandwiches, baguettes, jacket pots and more, especially cakes. All freshly prepared with generous portions. Staff were all efficient, friendly, attentive and professional. Café seemed very popular, but still plenty of room between the tables. Lots of people getting take away cakes. We would definitely visit again. One of the best cafés we've been to.

    Spread over 3 floors. Lovely and tidy and clean decor. Not too many tables crammed in. Had a pot of tea and it was a large pot, enough for 3 cups. Lemon drizzle cake was delicious. Table service but really good prices considering. Very friendly staff. Do full breakfasts, sarnies etc. Parking nearby. Uneven paths so care on access.

    If you haven't visited yet why not?.... I love this place. I haven't ever had a bad experience here. The staff are super friendly and the food is awesome. This place is great for a catch up with friends or to treat a loved one. You can grab a cake to takeaway or sit down and challenge yourself to an extreme calorie freakshake. The afternoon teas are amazing but you need to book way in advance.

    We had the most amazing time at the Vintage Bird Cage! The staff were friendly and welcoming, the interior was absolutely stunning, and the food was delicious and presented beautifully. The staff made sure to meet each guests individual needs (even gave the dog some doggy ice cream!); they went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing experience. A variety of sweet delicious treats as well, I can't recommend it enough, and can't wait to visit again! 🤩

    Always had delicious coffee and cakes here. Can get very busy but the staff remain cheerful and efficient. Never had to wait too long for our order. Obviously a very well organised kitchen!

    All I can say is WOW this place is something else. I have been twice for afternoon tea and it doesn’t disappoint, they give an amazing selection of savoury and sweet delights with a side of scones, jam and cream. It makes for an excellent birthday treat or similar and I’d recommend. The only downside is you have to book months in advance for obvious reasons. Brilliant place.

    I absolutely love the Vintage Birdcage Cakery! The VBC is one of my favourite places to go for breakfast, lunch & afternoon tea. Their afternoon tea is incredible - I would say slightly on the pricey side compared to some Afternoon Teas but you definitely get what you pay for. I always end up taking some home with me as there’s so much. I have been to the VBC many times for lunch and I love their sandwiches - the BLT is my favourite. I have also been to the VBC for breakfast and I normally get their bacon sandwich on granary bread! Their selection of cakes / tray bakes is amazing and of such a high quality. The decor of the VBC is just simply stunning, it’s beautiful. The snug is such a cosy little area and also beautifully decorated. The VBC is also perfect for coffee & cake and to just catchup with a friend. They also do take-aways so if it is busy or you’re in a rush you can always enjoy the VBC in the comfort of your own home or at work! I love going to the Vintage Birdcage Cakery and all of the staff are just super lovely!

    My favourite eatery to "treat" myself - good food, selection, prices, service and ambience. Feels like a home away from home - and they even leave blankets out under the lean-to for when days are a bit chilly - they've thought of everything. DO go and treat yourself too.

    Excellent afternoon tea. Sandwiches were freshly made, the savouries and scones were still warm, the cake is proper homemade tasting goodness. Great value for money and wonderful surroundings.

    The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The service was very quick though they were busy. There's 3 different spaces to sit in and the decor goes with the name. The coleslaw was really lovely and I thought the added description on the coffee was a lovely touch.

    Very quaint, lovely surroundings and beautiful coffee. The Apple and Cinnamon scone with Custard was beautiful. A first visit for me, but definitely not my last. We sat indoors, but there is a lovely covered outdoor seating area.

    Went on a Sunday morning for breakfast. Will warn you now that the chef has Sunday's off so breakfast is limited. I had waffles with bacon and maple syrup, it was good, the waffles were soft and fresh, the bacon was of excellent quality as was the maple syrup. Had this with a coffee which was superb, beautiful fresh roast taste. Others had bacon sandwiches, tea cakes and crumpets and all were finished off but we came here for was the freakshakes for the kids, huge milkshakes in lots of different flavours covered in a multitude and variety of toppings, they all polished these off. Nicely decorated place with limited seating inside but lots outdoors. Just outside is a wonderful park filled with lots to do for all ages and a duck pond with a couple of nesting swans (we even got to see the swan eggs). Not the cheapest but definitely worth it with everyone being very happy with their orders. Staff are excellent and nothing is too much trouble. Will definitely be coming back.

  • 5/5 Nicki B. 1 year ago on Google
    What an amazing place. My sister, who has difficulty walking, and myself went for lunch today. The staff could not have been any more helpful. So friendly and efficient. They were very busy but the attention they gave to everyone was exceptional. Fantastic menu, difficult to choose. Had panini and it was delicious. Bought 2 cakes to take home for family and they are telling me to go again for more. Well done everyone, you deserve to be as busy as you are.

  • 5/5 Gemma 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely beautiful and wonderful place here. My first visit and i enjoyed it from start to finish. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food and cakes were delicious Good variety on the menu, with lots of choice of main meals, snacks and cakes. Drink selection was also good. Can't wait to visit again!

  • 5/5 Hayley H. 7 months ago on Google
    We just popped in for a quick brunch. The staff members were so lovely and welcoming, the food is very good quality and incredibly tasty, even our very fussy toddler demolished her plate. It's a very child and dog friendly place.

    Took my mum for lunch today for the first time. We were looked after by a lovely young lady called Emma and the service provided by her was first class. What a lovely, polite, kind and attentive young lady, every business dealing with the public needs an Emma working for them. We cannot praise her highly enough. The food was outstanding , absolutely delicious and lots of it. We had a latte each to start followed by jackets potatoes with salad and coleslaw. One had homemade coronation chicken and the other had homemade chilli with grated cheese. The desserts were just superb, blueberry cheesecake and a massive waffle with banana, honey and cinnamon with 2 large scoops of ice-cream 😋. This was our first visit and we are going back in 2 weeks for one of their amazing afternoons tea, we cannot wait.

    Amazing afternoon tea as always! Book in advance if you want to have afternoon tea here, it's always super busy because it is so fantastic! Do check their facebook though because sometimes they have last minute cancellations. The Christmas afternoon tea we had today was incredible. Everything was delicious, freshly made and we were so full we had to bring some bits home. The snug was lovely and cosy, perfect for our group. We even had crackers to pull, a lovely touch! Parking is available but limited, you fill in your reg at the counter.

    Went to the Vintage Birdcage for a birthday treat. Had to have one of their freshly baked warm fruited cream tea scones with a pot of tea☕. It was so VERY tasty that we had to try out some of their other cakery ? offerings. As we couldn't decide we went for Coffee and Walnut sponge cake, Carrot cake, Lemon drizzle AND Cherry Bakewell!! Have to say that all that was shared, and not just for me?????. It was also the first time that we had ventured upstairs into 'The Aviary'. I have to say it's a beautiful addition to the 'Birdcage'. It's also table service in there, so this makes the experience extra special xx??

    Great first experience at the Cakery having recently moved to the area. It came highly recommended to me and certainly didnt disappoint. This will hopefully be the first of many visits. My gluten free toastie and brownie were delicious as was my husband's falafel wrap and vanilla milkshake. They have a very good system in place for social distancing/takeaways.

    What a wonderful wonderful group of people!! Such altruism. I say MANY MANY THANKS to you all for your efforts and kindness in looking after the elderly in Yate. Your soup is wonderful and it means the difference between having to go out and maybe risk our lives or following gov.advice and keeping safe and well. Icommend

  • 5/5 shane a. 5 years ago on Google
    I had heard about this place for a long time through social media so had to visit while I was back. It does get very busy (even on a weekday lunch time) so make sure you arrive early. There is heaters outside which help a little if you can’t find an indoor table, dogs are welcome outside which is a nice touch. The food was very good and the freakshakes are worth a go

    Food and drink very good. But no WiFi in this day and age! And at a time when there is so much publicity on reducing sugar intake, no sweetener option at tables.

  • 4/5 James C. 4 years ago on Google
    This tea shop is probably one of the best in the area However,probably due to its success it is sometimes let down by customer service issues Last time I visited it was annoying for someone to work filling the cupboard behind my chair Rather than wait for the space to be vacated If you have a voucher for afternoon tea be prepared to be disappointed as you cannot book a table until October? Rendering your voucher as useful as a chocolate teapot Not good
