Best Tea and Coffee Spots

[Sam Crawley]

I enjoyed a few cappuccinos last year at Glasto, but the coffee was of very variable standard. Does anyone have any recommendations for where to get my dose of coffee and milky froth?

I seem to remember my favourite place last year was a smallish red-fronted stall.. [scratches head] I think it was as you face Other Stage, if you turn left and head round to Pyramid that way.. on the right hand side as you leave the Other area. But, err, could be wrong. I will make more of an effort to note these things this year! Anyway was reasonably priced, good-tasting coffee.

Incidentally I don't suppose the milk used on site is supplied by ME's cows, is it?

Can't answer for Coffee, only ever made some in a percolator on our camp fire!

Tiny Tea Tent, real mugs, nice flapjack, and shelter from the rain!

Mug deposit tends to increase after the Wednesday, I guess tendacy for people to walk off with the mug increases?

tiny tea tent for the tea, and there's a spot up the hill from there on the left in the green fields that does goooooooooood coffee- can't remember it's name, but it has wooden mushroomoid seats outside

Had an idea to do a Cream Tea tent one year. Got the marquee and seating and thought that offering scones and pot of tea for a fiver would be a good earner and just a little bit different.

Any thoughts? Would it be a winner?

I've always stopped in the Tiny Tea tent for a nice morning cuppa in a proper cup! I think there's normally a Salvation army tent which does cheap (maybe even free?!) tea, for the thrifty amongst us!

2008 I had a great cup of coffee in a nice carpeted type tent - cant remember where it was, but the glitzy baghags played there on the Thursday.

2007 Had a wicked cup of coffee round near the fire stage - it ws last thing on sunday evening whilst it was piddling down with rain, and we were waiting for bill bailey. Cafetiere and real cups. Was just what we needed. Didnt manage to find it last year though.

Tiny Tea Tent every time!

Chilling out with a cuppa in a proper mug, a chocolate muffin and a read of the Glastonbury Daily is a definate must!

[r0cky]

Hmmm, if the scones were freshly baked and there was real clotted cream then I'd be there every day!

Tiny Tea Tent every time for me.

There was a place in The Park last year that sold afternoon teas - I remember because I couldn't get in there for love nor money all weekend! Think its was the treetop or treehouse cafe, summat like that anyway.

Mmmmm scones.....

Small World stage/tent, quite off the beaten track up in the Green Fields?

I know what scones (sk-ons) are.. great with some jam and Cornish clotted cream! What are these scone (sk-own) things you mention?!

If it's raining, will you eat them whilst wearing your kagool (kaggle) or your kagool (kagooooool)?

[StevePBS]

Henry's Beard Cafe somewhere up Green Futures (ish) do a decent cuppa and pretty good food. Sometimes have performances in the tent as well.................

[pie_and_a_pint]

Avalon Cafe do a decent cuppa (well, they do decent everything, really). Problem is that the food in there is so tempting it's hard to come away with just tea...
