Shop

Our beautiful shop sells a wide range of everyday goods, tasty treats, little luxuries, and local artists’ cards and gifts. Our products are thoughtfully chosen, good quality, and always fairly priced, even as we strive for high ethical and sustainable standards.

Café

With sumptuous cakes, light lunches, and some of the best coffee around, we offer a unique experience as the light pours through our stained-glass windows. Eat in or enjoy the sunshine outside or take-away.

Local flavour

Sustainability and a thriving community are important to us. We source nearly half our stock from local producers, reducing food miles, and boosting local businesses.

Community Hub

We are a hub for people to meet, enjoy music, share passions, learn new skills, or refuel after a long walk. We offer a warm welcome to locals, dog-walkers, tourists, and day trippers. We are proud of our wide mix of events: from weekly clubs to free concerts.

Volunteers at Amberley Shop & Cafe

Volunteers

Our team of over 90 volunteers aged from 14 to over 80 keep us on track, but we always welcome new helpers to contribute ideas and time. The roles vary from admin and collecting goods to customer-facing positions. Even if you can only offer one hour a week that will make a difference.
