Brownies & Coffee

Really nice ☕️ coffee and the brownies tasted fresh and tasty. Would definitely go here again . The gentleman who serves us was very friendly and welcoming. As for the shop decor it was nice a calming, but also a bit quirky loved it.

The cheesecake brownie is excellent (and I have been working my way through the menu). Coffee is good too!

We accidentally found this wonderful coffee shop today. Great coffee, those that know coffee will appreciate this place! Great brownies with gluten free and vegan options made by the very talented owner. Very glad we saw it before I ended up with another dishwater coffee from the Costa very close by...!

The brownies here are insane, they are buttery and smooth, I feel like I never knew what a true brownie tasted like until I came here. It tasted like chocolate pudding, and the brownies were the kind that melts in the middle. The texture inside was soft and moist, no grittiness from excess sugar, it was the right amount.

Was pretty quiet when we went in so not much of an atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The coffee was very good and the brownie was genuinely the best I have ever eaten. Not sure if they have anything vegan.

This place is easily overlooked.
Even the name itself "Brownies and Coffee" (on the corner of "Labour in Vain Yard") is a name that doesn't swan it for you like say Strawberries and Champagne might.

Apart from the gorgeous succulence of chocolate; "brown" is not a colour we like to see too much of on our plates.
Chocolate sales would plummet if we had to ask for a Bar of Brown. And Colonel Sanders would have died unsung and unlamented, if he had called his product, Kentucky Brown Chicken.

However; that minor quibble aside, this place is a little purple-painted, treasure box of perfection.
The coffee is consistently amongst the very best in Norwich. And Norwich, for those who haven't experienced the far flung delights of Thetford and Kirkwall, has some of the finest coffee in the kingdom.

I don't want my coffee "made with passion". Those who claim to have a "passion" for pulling pints or working in insurance, are either liars or are having their OCD shamefully exploited.

The coffee here is excellent, it takes slightly longer to make, but that i imagine is because the guy making it, takes pride in his craft and wants his customers to have value and pleasure in what they spend their money on.

The vibe is friendly and welcoming. Though i always have a sense when i'm there, that i have just missed out on meeting Earnest Hemingway.

A very well deserved 5 stars.

Found this place on visit to Norfolk. By far best coffee we've had on our trip. Cake was lovely too. Discovered all are homemade by owner Jonathan who does everything himself. Really recommend if you're looking for a friendly independent cafe next to the market.

We had a few coffees in Norwich and this was the best one. The brownies are truly indulgent and the almond croissant is an unusual take on “the classic”.

Keep us the good work.
