Considering it was a Saturday, its really difficult to find a coffee shop open beyond 4pm. Then we came across this place. In the style of a tea room; large, open, airy and comfortable. Great selection of tea, really nice cakes and very friendly service. Can't fault really. Situated outside the church, the premises offers great views of the medieval streets of Shrewsbury

No visit to Shrewsbury is complete without afternoon tea at "Camilla's" - we've always called it that and discovered most people do. Great locality, comfortable ambience, friendly, well-trained staff. The afternoon tea is ample and delicious. Neat sandwiches, rich cake and infallible scones with lashings of jam and clotted cream - heaven!
