By some distance the best cafe in Lichfield, and should definitely be the main port of call for any locals or visitors of a cultured/artsy/alternative bent. The menus, drinks choices, music selection and decor all scream "discerning yet unpretentious", and the owners Sejal and Della are always a real pleasure to chat to. They run a great programme of events... More

I hired the room upstairs for my mother’s 80th birthday. The room was great and the buffet that they provided was excellent. The staff I cannot fault and they created a superb night to remember. Also I recommend anybody that needs a coffee or a bite to eat to go to this place...forget about the rest!

I find that usually Tripadvisor is my friend in finding new places and this was one example of that in action The Spark is number two on the list of restaurants in Lichfield and we went solely on that basis. From the outside it looks a bit bleak and unromantic for a meal for two of a Friday evening but... More

From the moment you walk into The Spark it feels like home, it has a unique welcoming atmosphere...The staff are friendly, helpful and nothing is ever too much trouble.

Went in for Lunch, the laid-back atmosphere might just make one think that this place is nor really serious. It is a fine place to eat, good quality, well sourced food neatly cooked and well presented. The pork sausages were a real delight.

I regularly spend time at The Spark; it's my favourite Lichfield haunt without a doubt. Lovely, friendly staff, good music, good atmosphere and the best hot chocolate in town; the perfect place to chill and chat with friends - hours just disappear!

I love this place! I'm a regular and have been since The Spark first opened, as it has such a welcoming atmosphere. Their food, made from locally sourced ingredients, is always well presented and delicious, and their coffee is in my opinion, 'the best in Lichfield'.

I have visited the Spark numerous times. It is an ideal venue whether you are meeting friends for coffee or having an evening out. The food is excellent ranging from snacks to three course meals. There is a relaxed atmosphere and the staff always make you feel welcome.
