Nestled in Bourton-on-the-Water, Shalom Coffee Shop presents a unique dining experience centered around community and generosity. This Christian-run café operates on a pay-what-you-want model, where patrons enjoy delicious food, friendly service, and warm conversations, all while supporting a charitable cause. Visitors rave about the inviting atmosphere, delightful coffee, and scrumptious treats like Victoria Sponge cake, often leaving more than suggested. With an adjoining bookshop and a daily pause for the Lord's Prayer, Shalom offers a charming blend of nourishment and fellowship, making it a must-visit for both locals and travelers alike.
