A cafe church is a Christian church centred in cafes or in the case of the Ironstone Benefice in the Old School Room, Horley.

Café church is associated with alternative worship, to seek and to find new forms and approaches to existing as a church in the 21st century. The services are often focused on relationship aspects of Christian fellowship and outreach to their local community and the use of a modern gathering place as a relaxed informal approach to worship.
