Thursday night fun at the café
We’re now staying open late every Thursday until 9pm, giving you a little extra time to relax, catch up with friends, or enjoy a cosy evening coffee after work.
From Counter to Letterbox – Our Vegan Café now delivers treats direct to your door
There’s something special about the smell of freshly baked brownies drifting through the café.
It’s our third birthday!
My name is Sam and I’ve been at Chestnut and Rose from the start. After a few late night text messages and little chat in the garage with Sarah, I was offered a job!
Thank you 2025!
I can’t believe we are sitting here, already in January 2026! 2025 was a fantastic year for Chestnut & Rose. We feel like we have really become part of the Kesgrave community.
Why I opened my plant-based café as a Mum of two
When I first dreamed about opening a café, it wasn’t just about the food and endless coffee. It was about creating a space to share my love of plant based food and baking, to bring the community together and create a welcoming, friendly space – while also showing my two kids that following your passion is worth it.
Why are we plant-based?
Just look at these images of some of our delicious food. Healthy, packed with naturally occurring nutrients and they just happen to be plant-based too!
Welcome to our brand new website!
We are delighted that our new website is LIVE! A huge thank you to Helen at Foghorn Website Design who took our existing website and gave it a serious glow-up. Sarah designed the old website when she first set the business up delivering graze boxes during lockdown.
