Little Dessert Shop Telford review

Best for: waffles, crepes and celebration desserts

Little Dessert Shop Telford in short

Little Dessert Shop Telford is the Central Square parlour covering waffles, crepes, cookie dough, cheesecakes and gelato with online ordering on the brand site. Like its Southwater rivals it sells evenings out rather than bespoke commissions. In our view it is a solid middle choice for celebration puddings ordered in.

Reviewers are the coolest in this table, with 3.8 from 511 Google reviews across a large review base, though the register gives the parlour the top hygiene mark [2] [3].

What counts against it is that review average plus missing company detail: no Telford operator could be traced and no insurance details are published [4]. Our judgement is that Little Dessert Shop Telford suits waffles, crepes and celebration desserts when convenience matters most.
