Caracoli Coffee and Cake Heaven in the heart of Winchester, Lindy Smith recommends

26th August 2012 by Lindy Smith

Do you love coffee and cake too?? Whenever I am out and about I often treat myself ….especially if I spot a small independent coffee shop  as I simply can’t resist investigating and sampling. I found Caracoli coffee shop on Winchester High Street – so pleased I walked further up the hill, it was a delight to  behold.

A wonderful array of sweet and savoury treats to eat in or take away, all beautifully presented.

Whilst waiting for my turn to be served I spotted tiny tasting dishes for various products and simply had to sample the almond, pistachio and lime cake – it looked so tasty! It was divine, moist, tangy and soo…. flavoursome, one tiny piece certainly wasn’t enough!

Like the cake, the coffee not only looked attractive it also tasted beautiful –  smooth and just as I like it…there is nothing like a perfectly blended and brewed coffee, I only wish I lived a little closer  – oh to live in Winchester!

Capuccino - divine!

I was obviously not alone in thinking this coffee shop delightful. Whilst savouring my treat, I spotted a sign which proudly stated that Caracoli were winners of the Telegraph magazine’s ‘Best Small Shops in Britain 2012 – Best for food‘ . I can see why, the award is well deserved!

So if you are ever in Winchester and feel like coffee and cake or even a light lunch you know where I would recommend.

Enjoy
