Café in the Park has been shortlisted in the Basingstoke Gazette’s prestigious Café of the Year 2025 competition!

Out of all the cafés across Basingstoke, only eight have made it through to the final shortlist — and thanks to your wonderful support, we’re one of them.

The competition celebrates local cafés that serve up not just great coffee and cakes, but also community spirit — something we’re incredibly proud of here at Café in the Park.

Simply fill in your coupon and drop it off at Café in the Park, and we’ll make sure it reaches the Gazette in time.

A huge thank you to everyone who nominated us — your continued support means the world to our team and volunteers. Let’s bring the Café of the Year title home to Beggarwood!
