Cooling Off in Worcester This Summer
When the sun is out over the Cornmarket and the city centre gets busy, there is one thing on most people's minds: something cold to drink or eat. We are right on Silver Street, just a short walk from the shops, and we are open every day from 10am to 11pm. So whether you fancy a mid-morning pick-me-up or a treat after a long evening wander, we are here. You can sit in or take it away with you.
Here is what we reach for when the temperature climbs, and what tends to disappear fastest from the counter on a warm Worcester afternoon.
Fresh juices that actually cool you down
Nothing beats the heat quite like a juice pressed there and then. Our watermelon juice is the obvious summer favourite, light and properly refreshing, and the mango is rich without being heavy. If you want something sharper, the mint lime wakes you right up, and the pomegranate and pineapple are both lovely on a hot day. We press orange, lemon and mixed fruit too, all fresh, no shortcuts.
If you are after something that feels a bit more virtuous, the vegetable and detox juices are worth a look. The green detox, carrot, beetroot, celery and ginger options are good when you want a cold drink that does a little more than just taste nice.
Big scoops, thick shakes and bubble waffles
Ice cream is non-negotiable in summer. We serve it by the scoop, so you can keep it simple with vanilla, chocolate or strawberry, or branch out with pista, cookies and cream, mango or our fruit cocktail. There is a special sundae too if you are in the mood to treat yourself properly.
For something thicker, the milkshakes go from classic chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and banana up to the premium ones: Oreo, Lotus Biscoff, Ferrero Rocher and Nutella. And if you really want to go big, the freakshakes in Chocolate, Oreo and Lotus are a proper sit-down moment.
Then there are the bubble waffles, which work surprisingly well in summer when you add cold scoops on top. Mr. Oreo, Strawberry Queen, Banana and Nuts, Belgian Chocolate, Snickers and Kitkat are all on the menu, or keep it plain with chocolate or vanilla.
Pop in whenever you are passing. We are at 24 Silver Street, WR1 2DA, and you can ring ahead on 07512 344835 if you want to check anything before you come.
