Little Slice of Heaven in Sunny Suffolk Well, I’ll have to complain first, my jeans are now far too tight following another trip to this delightful cafe! Honestly, if you are seeking excellent service and delectable food, a visit to Procopio’s Pantry is an absolute must. Breakfast, lunch or just tea and cake, this is the ideal spot for indulgence. I personally love the breakfast option of ‘Baked Eggs’; as it states on the menu, you won’t regret it! The staff could not be more welcoming or accommodating. The food is always divine with a variety of drinks available to suit everyone. Our family can’t wait for an excuse to have an event here. Now to loosen these jeans… 👀

Wonderful Gentleman's Afternoon tea I contacted Procopio's Pantry in advance as I wanted to organise a Gentleman's Afternoon Tea as a treat for myself and my partner's birthday on our visit to Bury St Edmunds. They responded straight away and we had everything arranged for the day. They didn't disappoint. The Gentlemen's Afternoon Tea was amazing and so tasty! I particularly enjoyed the cheese scones and pork sliders. It was a fantastic treat and the staff kindly gave us boxes to take home whatever we couldn't finish. A big thank you to Peter and his team for organising such a lovely treat and making our day.

Superlative! We visited for the special Mother's Day tea. Everything was exemplary in every way, up to the exceedingly high standards that one expects from Procopios. How on earth anyone could rate this occasion with a 1 assessment has a problem. At least they won't be attending again!

Lovely stop for morning coffee This is such gem! Stopped for morning coffee and homemade carrot cake which was delicious, also lovely to be served with proper china cups and saucers. Shout out to Tilly who served us and made us feel very welcome. It's also great value for money. Will certainly be back!

STUNNING!!!!! Easily the best cafe in Bury St Edmunds. This is without a doubt our new favourite place to go in Bury St Edmunds. We’ve been for breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea and everything has been 5 stars, absolutely delicious. My all time fave is the warm cinnamon bun with the cream cheese frosting. It’s to die for! The Mother’s Day afternoon tea was stunning, I’ve don’t a lot of afternoon teas, including the Ritz, and this was hands down my favourite one. Every single thing was gorgeous! And to be honest I’m not even a cake fan particularly. 100% recommend this hidden gem! Go go go…

Best Tea Shop in Bury and Beyond Absolutely love this place! Best tea shop in Bury. The staff are fantastic, they make the whole experience amazing. They’ve put together multiple themed teas specially for a gal group of mine. We went last for Galentines tea, and it was so perfectly themed; everything was delicious. Both sweet and savory, themed drinks (nonalcoholic for the mom-to-be in the group), and we felt like queens. Highly recommend! We even got extra white chocolate raspberry scones to go. Can’t wait to go back! I’ve also included pictures from Halloween tea they did back in October. Spooktacular! Everyone was jealous of us after they saw the photos.

Join us for breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, special occasions, parties and more…

If you’re looking for the best cream tea in Suffolk, you’ll want to pay us a visit! We make almost everything on the menu ourselves, and we’re proud to source our high-quality ingredients from local suppliers.

Took my Mum for lunch here today for her 86th birthday. What a lovely surprise to find out reserved table decorated. The food and service was excellent. Staff so friendly. Mum appreciated it all and her birthday slice of cake. Thank you 🎉

We stopped in for breakfast while we were in Bury St Edmunds and I'm so glad we did. The food was amazing and the service and staff were so friendly. I was excited to see baked eggs on the menu as it's not common, they were perfect. I also took away a chilli cheese scone for later which was delicious. We will definitely be back whenever we're in the area.

We took a friend who was celebrating her 90yrs birthday for afternoon tea. She thought how lovely and tasty it was. Also she loved the attention she got. Thank you so much.

We were having a small lunch/afternoon tea party to celebrate a new baby soon to be here. Pete baked for me a variety of scones. He helped to decide on some flavours savoury and sweet. Everyone commented on how delicious they were and a favourite was the cheese and chilli. Afternoon tea size was perfect as it allowed to try more than one type. We only had a couple left but we’re still fab a couple of days after the event. These really are ‘the best scones’. Can’t thank Pete enough for helping with my order and to make the event a success. ☺️

Clean - bright - friendly, engaging staff - fresh food, good presentation. Typical afternoon-tea-like menu, with a great selection of milkshakes and cold drinks. Had the hearty Ploughman's Cheese dish - would recommend.
