About Walsall Arboretum Cafe
Walsall Arboretum Cafe sits on Arboretum Rd in Walsall, serving sandwiches, chips, and home-made cake to visitors passing through. Orders are placed at the counter and called for collection, so no table service or reservations are involved, just walk in and order. Seating stretches both inside and outside, with outdoor tables giving those who prefer eating in the open air a spot with a view. A children's menu of chips and peas suits families with young children, and high chairs are available at the tables. The step-free entrance allows easy access for visitors with mobility needs, and dogs are welcome throughout. The cafe opens daily, though a wait can build at the counter when only one staff member is on duty. Iced coffee is served with the ice charged separately from the drink itself.

Customer Review Summary
Complaints centre on cost and waiting. One reviewer was charged extra for the ice in an iced latte and was not told beforehand. Another found two coffees and a sandwich not cheap. Others describe a long queue with only one person serving, and slow service given the small kitchen. Food criticism is specific: a cheese salad sandwich with very thinly cut cheese, and an egg sandwich that tasted like mayo with hidden egg. One parent received chips without the peas on a children's menu order, and an order was called out under the wrong number, so another customer was called instead. One reviewer also mentions free Sunday park yoga outside through the summer.

“Food is always perfect hot or cold. The drinks are very nice. You can sit inside or out.”
- Abril Herrera
“Staff is friendly but food was really bad (tasteless) and service was absent minded. I ordered and egg sandwich that seemed like a mayo sandwich with some hidden egg to be found. I also ordered a children's menu with chips and peas and I was only given chips. The girl who took my order also wrote the wrong number on my order so when they call for my food to be collected someone else got called instead of me(luckily another lady remembered it was me who placed the order and pass it to me).”

“Popped in before a walk around the lake yesterday and was shocked to be charged £14.70 for a warm latte, an iced latte and a flapjack. When I asked for a breakdown, I was told the ice in the iced coffee is charged separately — something I wasn’t informed about before ordering. Not exactly the experience I expect when choosing to shop local. Very disappointing.”
- Rob Jones
“Just popped in a few minutes before they closed but their coffee was very good. Comfy chairs as well.”
- Kathy Johnson
“Rather expensive and seating planning very poor, used to be better with smaller tables. We dont go in any more as sometimes the queue is very long and only one person there.”
