A bit about us

The Café at the Roald Dahl Museum offers a delumptious range of freshly prepared food and drink.

Enjoy sandwiches, jacket potatoes, pastires and soup in our cosy café. A visit isn't complete, though, without a sweet treat. Try the Bogtrotter chocolate cake, scones, cupcakes and slices - all delicious and homemade on the premises.

Afternoon tea
The Roald Dahl Museum afternoon tea is not to be missed! Enjoy sandwiches, sweet treats and our delicious homemade scones - all washed down with one of our fabulous Twist Teas or Grand Cafe coffees. 

Teas cost £10 per person and are available Wednesday to Saturday during term-time from 2pm to 4pm. Booking is advised by calling the Cafe on 01494 865113, or by emailing cafe@roalddahlmuseum.org. 


The Cafe is open to all, not just Museum visitors.
