Merry Christmas & Happy New Year from Team Frescoes x
The historic former book shop offers a unique blend of traditional comfort and stylish contemporary décor.
Entering via a traditional shop front on Mill Street, a downstairs seating area opens up to an outside dining space for those gloriously sunny days.
A fabulously creaky staircase leads to two further rooms, each with their own vibe and display of original artwork by our Artist in Residence.

“Frescoes is a gem of a coffee shop. It's the perfect place for breakfast, lunch or just a snack, with a cup of the best coffee in Bedford. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, and it's a great place to meet friends, work on your laptop or just treat yourself in lovely surroundings.”
