About

CSONS is a vibrant family‑owned café‑restaurant tucked into a Grade‑II listed 16th‑century building at 8 Milk Street in Shrewsbury. The Crouch brothers—Reuben, Adam, Ben and Josh—blend their decades of culinary experience with a passion for locally sourced, globally inspired food, creating a menu that changes almost daily to showcase the best seasonal produce. From a hearty breakfast with classic pancakes to inventive lunch and supper courses, diners can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere that still feels historic, with Tudor paneling and a 17th‑century staircase adding character to every table. The restaurant offers a wide array of drinks, from specialty coffees brewed on a La Marzocco line to a curated selection of local beers and house cocktails. Outdoor seating gives guests a sunny courtyard garden to unwind, while indoor seating with original heritage décor transports them back to the Sun Tavern era. With free Wi‑Fi, vegan and gluten‑free options, and a friendly, knowledgeable staff, CSONS appeals to both casual lunch crowds and those seeking a memorable evening meal. Enjoy a relaxed meal any day of the week—sundays to Thursdays open from 9:00 to 16:00, Friday and Saturday from 9:00 to 11:00, and a special evening menu that starts at 19:00 on the first Thursday of each month. Whether you’re a local looking for a cozy brunch spot or a tourist exploring Shrewsbury’s rich heritage, CSONS’ combination of history, family warmth, and culinary creativity makes it a must‑visit destination.
