1066 Bakery Café Kitchen Priory Meadow

Amazing vegan options, including toasties, pastries, sandwiches and drinks.

The staff are so helpful and friendly, making for a very nice environment. Lots of seating available inside, outside and upstairs. Bathrooms are upstairs and are clean and tidy.

Takeaway option is available for everything.

The absolute 100% best coffee I’ve ever had. I’m a very regular customer and would never drink or eat anywhere else in the town lovely friendly helpful staff to makes the whole experience worthwhile.

Dropped in to escape the rain at this very popular and aptly named cafe. Was extremely busy and had to queue to order for 10minutes but settled down in a seat for lovely coffees. Oat flat white (45p extra for Oat- a bit steep but I have paid it before) and cappuccino were both excellent and the clearly regular clientele were all pleasant. Nice place to watch the world go by, but not the place you would go for quirk or wonder

Gorgeous and generous pastries. Beautiful decor. Lovely family friendly area up stairs and plenty of different style.seating everywhere to suit all parties and needs from single person working to groups of friends nattering

Great service and having finished our meal me and the wife went for a stroll about town when the wife discovered she may have lost her phone and purse 👛 so we went back to the 1066 and spoke to one of the members of staff who went straight to the counter and returned the items to my wife . Great service good food and coffee definitely recommend it.

Being a northerner I have to say not many independent businesses last very long. Hastings is very different with lots of independent cafes, bars and restaurants. I regularly travel down to Hastings and this time to quench my coffee addiction I tried a new coffee cafe called 1066
What to say?!
As soon as I walked the staff were automatically friendly and very welcoming. From the amazing food display and and fantastic smells as you walk in, 1066 is a beauty and Hastings. The croissant and coffee was delectable. You can tell it is all fresh made. The cafe itself is clean and and has a homely atmosphere to it
This is now a new favourite each I come to Hastings now
To all the staff, keep up the good work and the winning formula you have going 👍🏻

Food great, staff friendly, lovely atmosphere, decor had a major uplift since I was last here many years in its former life as Mr Bean's Coffee House.
Special mention for the server who gave excellent service to the disabled customer ahead of me in the queue, helping her with her order and to put her change away as well as sorting out bringing her order to her table. It was lovely to see.

Today we visited this cafe, ordered a mini pizza and a roll, sat down to have a snack on the street... But immediately the bird was tired, straight from the plate... Seeing the workers of this cafe, they provided a new portion... Very nice... Attention to customers at the highest level ... 07/10/2024....thank you so much for your attention, it’s very nice.

Great menu choice.
Food was fresh & delicious.
Staff were friendly & helpful.
We sat upstairs & it was very relaxing.
Will definitely visit again

Wow so friendly . Great food . I’ve had a gastric sleeve so not eating carbs . Was happy for me to have just bacon and Brie and it’s was delicious. Hubby had a cheese roll with bacon and Brie . Worth the money . Can not fault will be back 😊

Cute little cafe we spotted on our way, great pricing.

I highly recommend their Chai, the vanilla chai was one of the best ones I’ve had, didn’t expect it from this little cafe in a village. Their Apple Cornish pie is good as well.

A very long established , respected, bakery and café with several outlets in the local area. This family business is a great alternative to the national coffee house chains such as Costa, especially if you want a wider choice of food.

The coffee is very good and if syrups are your thing there's plenty to choose from.

As for cakes, sandwiches, hot snacks etc. you won't know what to choose. Everything is extra large and excellent quality.

Service has always been fast and efficient and there's plenty of seating upstairs and down.

I see some people are saying it's expensive and I guess if you're comparing the price of a sandwich here to one elsewhere it may seem pricey. But you get what you've paid for, quality. A decent, generous filling, in thickly sliced fresh bread from their bakery (your choice white, brown etc)

If I had one criticism it would be the buy ten get one free drink scheme. It's the old paper card stamping scheme and they aren't very good at telling you about it or reminding you about the card when purchasing. It needs modernizing with a plastic card scheme. It would be wider used and easier to remember.

Finally, yes, these Viennese whirls really are as wide and thick as they look. They make the usual branded boxed Viennese whirls in supermarkets look pathetic in comparison and are a thousand times more tasty.

Great coffee teas iced drinks , cakes, scones savoury pastries, and delicious sandwiches , plenty of seating also upstairs seating , little play corner for little ones and disabled toilet on the ground floor .

Myself and my wife come here regularly and always have good service. The food is very good. We will keep coming back.

Love the place. Nice hot teas and coffees, nice variety of cakes and snacks, comfortable seating areas.

It serves a real 'large' cup of coffee! Why do so many other coffee shops refuse to follow Costa and Starbucks, and give huge cups like they do? The staff were friendly and attentive, and there are views outside all around. The cake was good too. Recommended.

Very smart large bakery cafe. Good coffee. The staff were very nice - it was obvious that they get quite a few regulars here, and the staff knew names and regular drink selections. Recommended on the way to the train station.

It is a lovely coffee shop on the corner of the road that goes up to Priory Meadow. Opposite the cinema. It even has an upstairs.
Very reasonablely priced coffees and tea.
The pastries are lovely and tasty the cheese straws are so long well worth the money. The Eccles cakes are so large and so tasty and the Apple puffs are so tasty too.
All the bakery items smell and taste lovely.
Staff are lovely friendly and helpful.

Great Staff, Great Coffee.
The one thing that would improve the cafe is to have the hot food under lights like in the branch in Bexhill. Using a microwave to warm up food leaves the food soft not crispy

Often pop in for a latte and cake, always served with a smile and a how are you today?
Mel and her team work hard to ensure the cafe is clean, tidy and service is efficient!
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and shall be returning soon.
