About us

Born from a love of great coffee, honest food, and genuine connection, The Oat Shed was created as a space where quality and community come together in perfect harmony.

Nestled in the heart of Kimberley, our space is more than a café, it’s a celebration of local artistry, thoughtful design, and meaningful human moments. Every detail, from our handcrafted interiors to the aroma of freshly ground coffee, has been curated to create a sense of warmth, sophistication, and belonging.

We believe in slowing down, in making time for conversation, creativity, and inspiration. The Oat Shed is a modern meeting place for people and ideas,  a sanctuary for those who value craftsmanship, comfort, and connection.

At the heart of The Oat Shed lies a deep respect for provenance and purpose. We partner exclusively with small-scale, independent producers from across Nottinghamshire, ensuring that every product we serve tells a story of passion and integrity.

Our menus reflect the seasons, our community, and our belief that exceptional quality begins with local roots. Every sip and every bite supports real people doing extraordinary things,  artisans who pour their heart into every ingredient.

We are proud to serve Fair Trade, organic coffee, carefully roasted in Nottingham and ethically sourced from Bolivia through the remarkable Café Femenino program.

Café Femenino empowers women coffee farmers around the world, providing them with fair compensation, independence, and the opportunity to shape their own futures. 

Each cup we serve carries their story, one of resilience, empowerment, and hope, transforming your daily ritual into something profoundly meaningful.

The Oat Shed was designed to be more than a destination, it’s a feeling. A space to unwind, to collaborate, to celebrate, or simply to be. We hope you find comfort in our company, inspiration in our atmosphere, and connection in every visit.

Whether you come for a quiet morning coffee, an evening event, or a spontaneous chat with friends, we invite you to make The Oat Shed your home from home,  a space where luxury meets authenticity, and every moment is savoured.
