Coffee#1 Newbury, located in the Parkway Shopping Centre, is a beloved haven for coffee enthusiasts. Patrons like Paul Smith laud its cozy atmosphere, ideal for relaxing with a large cappuccino and a delicious slice of cookie and cream cake. The shop’s ambiance allows visitors to unwind and enjoy the simple pleasure of watching life go by.
Many customers, including Gemma Pope, praise the friendly staff and an impressive selection of vegan options, contributing to its reputation as a go-to coffee spot. The offerings extend beyond traditional beverages, featuring a delightful range of cakes. Jay Masters-Read’s experience with the cookies and cream chocolate cheesecake exemplifies the bakery’s innovative desserts, albeit with a slight caveat regarding some noisy service disruptions.
However, not all reviews are overwhelmingly positive. Carolyn Clark's experience with a dried-out piece of Victoria sponge cake highlights that consistency can sometimes waver. Yet, F T's review of the comforting toasties, such as mushroom and emmental, illustrates that the kitchen still delivers delicious flavors. Overall, Coffee#1 Newbury maintains its charm and warmth, making it an essential pit stop for anyone in town.

Enjoy visiting, this is my favourite place in Newbury, large cappuccino and a slice of cookie and cream cake love the atmosphere here can sit down and relax and watch the world go by. Would recommend you visit if in Newbury, can get a little busy but that would be down to others like myself who like to chill...

I've been coming here now for a couple of years and is my fave coffee place to come to in Newbury. Staff are always friendly, great comfy and welcoming atmosphere and always a good selection of vegan options!!

Great vibe here. Fantastic cakes and great selection of drinks too. Had to suffer through a cookies and cream chocolate cheesecake which was sublime!!! A note for the owners; you need to get your Saturday lad dishwasher to tidy away a bit more quietly as he is VERY NOISEY and no one sits near that spot!!

Last piece of Victoria sponge cake .. it was so dried out it was almost crispy. Needed a glass of water to wash it down. Shame, because the food is usually lovely.

A nice selection of toasties and cakes in a cozy setup. One can choose between hard chairs or armchairs. We had the mushroom and emmental, chicken pesto and the bacon chilli. And they were all really good.

Really like the coffee here, and the staff were working hard on a busy Sunday afternoon, but still gave great, friendly service.

Great coffee. I’ve started coming here for my coffee now rather than Costa! Nice cakes and friendly staff too!
