Nestled amidst the charming streets of Aylsham lies Madeleines, a haven that beckons you in with its inviting embrace. During a recent visit, I was immediately struck by how cosy and inviting the café was. From the moment I stepped through the door, the warm atmosphere and the friendly smiles of the staff made me feel right at home.

Madeleines is more than just a café; it's a labour of love dedicated to creating a welcoming experience for all. The interior is full of rustic charm—perfectly blending modern comfort with a homely vibe.

Something that stood out was the genuine care shown by every member of the team. I was immediately impressed by how they make everyone feel so at ease, and you can sense their genuine passion in the care they take with every dish served.

Speaking of which, let's talk about the cakes. Amy, the talented chef, has truly mastered the art of baking. Each cake looked like a work of art—beautifully presented with just the right balance of flavour and texture. From rich, indulgent slices to lighter, fruit-infused treats, there was something to please every palate. You can tell that Amy puts a lot of passion into her creations, and it certainly shows in the taste.
