Raphael's

you're on boat lane, a quiet stretch where the avon sits close enough that you'd barely notice the town centre exists. raphael's is here, at hampton ferry, which already puts it somewhere most coffee shops don't bother going. evesham is a market town, unhurried, and this place fits that pace without being sleepy about it. the locals who keep coming back aren't doing it out of habit alone. specialty coffee in a spot this specific takes a certain kind of confidence, and raphael's has clearly built something that holds. if you find yourself here on a slow morning, the walk from the high street is worth the extra few minutes. end up at the river with something well made in your hand.
