Cool Beans Café

the flat white here gets talked about a lot, and if you've found yourself on mill street in bideford with a bit of time to spare, that's probably where you should start. cool beans café sits at 21 mill street, which puts it right in the older commercial stretch of town, the kind of street where you actually have things to do before or after your coffee. it's not a destination you have to talk yourself into. the locals who come back regularly aren't doing so out of habit alone, they're doing it because the coffee holds up. bideford doesn't have a huge independent café scene, so when something this consistent exists, people notice. end the morning with that flat white, ideally before mill street gets busy.
