About Sweet Solstice Cafe

Sweet Solstice Cafe is a characterful independent bakery and cafe at 67 Bondgate Within, on Alnwick's main shopping street. Run by Autumn, a sugar crafter and artist, the venue leans into a playful witchy, magical theme and welcomes families, with disabled access and a dog-friendly policy. It also offers a dedicated quiet time for autistic and additional-needs visitors, making it an unusually inclusive spot in the town centre.

The cafe produces a range of bakes, cakes and treats to eat in or take away, and takes on bespoke work including stunning wedding and celebration cakes drawing on the owner's sugarcraft background. Its distinctive branding and hand-crafted patisserie set it apart from more conventional bakeries, giving Alnwick an original, creatively themed destination for both casual visits and special-occasion orders.
