Welcome to The Kiln! We are an independent, award winning café set in the heart of Stewartby, Bedfordshire serving proper breakfast, relaxed brunch, great lunch & seriously good coffee.

Founded by Bec & Brendan, hospitality professionals with years of kitchen and service experience, The Kiln was built on one simple idea — do it properly, and make people feel welcome.

Located just behind the village shop and only a 5 minute walk from Stewartby Lake, we’re the perfect stop for walkers, cyclists, locals & visitors looking for a friendly café near Bedford.

We’re known for our good food, welcoming atmosphere & excellent service. Whether you’re searching for the best breakfast in Stewartby, a relaxed brunch spot near Bedford or great locally roasted coffee & our homemade sweet treats, you’ll find it here!

Take a look at the menu page for our current menu or the contact page if you need to get in touch.

You can dine in, dine out, pop by or takeaway.

We recommend booking a table because we are quite small & get very busy, very quickly. You can always pop by on the off chance – we will always try to squeeze you in. Our outside tables are first come, first served. Furry friends are welcomed outside, just not inside (not our rules, we sometimes prefer dogs to people). If you would like to book a table inside, please fill in the contact us/booking part of the site & we will get back to you shortly.
