Roots Coffee & Community
We want Roots to be a place where everyone feels valued and special, where everyone can get involved and a place that's helping to make Kingsholm a more positive, thriving area to live. Roots is renowned far and wide for coffee, cakes, sandwiches, breakfasts and snacks, all made with locally sourced ingredients wherever possible - and served by our locally sourced staff!
Services
Roots was started by a group of friends from the local area with a passion for seeing Kingsholm flourish. We're inspired by the words and actions of Jesus Christ. That means putting people first - so we hope you'll feel valued, welcomed and right at home!. Downstairs, you'll find a coffee shop serving ethically sourced coffee and delicious, affordable locally sourced food.
Roots is a spacious and affordable space available to hire for meetings, parties, exercise classes and even weddings! All you need is our hall and a little imagination. Whatever you're celebrating, Roots makes a great party venue. There's plenty of room for party games, dancing or a big sit-down meal in the community hall.
We're in the old co-operative building on Alvin Street, in the heart of Kingsholm - opposite the doctors' surgery, near the chemist, butcher, hairdresser, and garden machinery shop. We're also in shouting distance of Gloucester Rugby Stadium! There's two-hour parking on Alvin Street, and plenty more on nearby roads too (please check signage and local parking regulations).

A lovely, spacious coffeeshop with good food and drink, a short distance from the centre of Gloucester. There is a small play area and a community room for hire. It's a great place to meet.

Lovely little community café... Really nice vibe in here. They do a scheme where you can donate your free loyalty card coffee or buy a voucher for their notice board to help someone who may just need a free hot drink or some food! Hopefully those in need know about this great idea!

Just a nice and cosy community cafe with a nice atmosphere. The fried egg bap is brilliant and great hunger filler! The prices are slightly pricey but that’s to be expected with a small community cafe. Keep it up!
