Our Story

From humble beginnings to Braunton's favourite cafe

Our Journey

Founded in 2006 by two surfers with a passion for great food & coffee. Wild Thyme Cafe began as a small coffee shop and smoothie bar serving simple breakfasts to early-morning beachgoers.

What started as a modest operation quickly grew into Braunton's favorite gathering spot, thanks to our commitment to quality ingredients, warm hospitality, and a welcoming atmosphere.

Over the years, we've expanded our menu to include global flavors inspired by our travels, while staying true to our roots as a community-focused cafe where everyone feels at home.
