I have recently been in Leicester for 2 weeks working and found this beautiful little place. The coffee hit the spot, the cakes were divine and the soup for lunch was out of this world! But most importantly the staff were super friendly, very chatty and seemed interested in everyone’s day. They remembered my order which was a bonus! Turns out one of the staff had just moved from where I live, very small world! Would definitely come back here if I am ever around this area again!

The lady at the counter is so incredibly friendly. I ordered a bacon sandwich and a hot chocolate with syrup added and it only came to £7 which is incredibly cheap nowadays and it was probably the best bacon sandwich i’ve had. I had a lecture coming up so I wanted a coffee in my flask. Not only did the lady do it without any issues but spoke to me whilst making it and even did little art at the top, and the coffee was probably the best i’ve tasted! Definitely coming back soon

Clean environment, children friendly, Freshly sliced wholemeal bread bacon sandwiches and two coffee for takeaway this was a little more expensive than I would normally pay for but paid for better quality of food definately. Fresh Home- made soup and freshly sliced chunky bread was being prepared for lunch time definately a must for next time.

Very chilling atmosphere, really lovely coffee, very polite service through the front door at the counter, or through the serving hatch on the other side of the property, so it is possible to get delicious grub and gorgeous drinks without even having to deviate from whichever route one happens to be passing on. A proper independent café with local owners in the heart of Leicester. Highly recommended!

A Coffee Shop in the historic heart of Leicester. I loved the relaxed, humble atmosphere inside. It was, unfortunately, a damp day during my visit. The contemporary, decadent outdoor seating cries for customers. The coffee setup is handsome: Victoria Arduino Mythos 1 grinder paired to a Nuova simonelli espresso machine. Coffee beans are complements of Monmouth Coffee Roastery. The result, beautiful chocolatey loveliness.

The ultimate hidden-gem of Leicester! Absolutely wonderful cafe, my favourite of all time! The owner is lovely and all the staff are chatty and friendly, fantastic customer service, they truly make you feel at home! The cafe itself is gorgeous, a rustic yet timelessly cool look, kitted out with vintage school benches and a retro kit kat machine. The owner is a skilled calligrapher and his fantastic typography adorns the walls. Not only does this cafe look stunning and have fantastic customer service, it also serves some of the most INCREDIBLE coffee I've ever had. They have delicious vegan milk options, and for those who don't enjoy coffee, they make incredible, velvety hot chocolate made with melted chocolate flakes and foamy milk. An absolute delight, not to be missed!

My favourite place in all of Leicester. Owner, Paul, has a passion for sourcing and serving coffee of the highest quality, and makes the best hot chocolate! This cafe is very whimsical, from the hand drawn calligraphy to its extensive spread of cakes. They love to support local producers when it comes to creating lunch specialties.

Best coffee shop I've found in Leicester. Lovely staff and great coffee. Getting a coffee to go and then strolling up New Walk sipping it is an early morning treat. Its also child friendly-ish - the staff were happy to see my 3 year old and made him a baby-chino, which he loved. The seating isn't the best for a toddler, but he enjoyed watching everyone go by from the big window and he was fine perched on my knee.

Had a meeting in town and found this place just a short walk from hotel. They serve Monmouth coffee so it was immediately clear they’re serious about good taste and delivered a great flat white. I had one in the shop and another took to go. Great independent, prices to be honest are too cheap as the quality is top notch- well done guys.

Been here before and on the lats visit the gentleman was very friendly. place was very small but had a very cosy feel. dropped by in PM today after an appointment in city centre to buy a cappucino to drink on way home and thought would pick up two cakes (a brownie and a blueberry cake). tried to pay with card but unfortunately the card machine wasn't working. staff tried to fix it to no avail and I managed to scramble in my purse for some money and offered to return one of the cakes to cover as didn't have enough cash (and I really didn't want to walk back the way I came to the nearest cash machine) however the lady behind the counter was very lovely and gave me the cappucino as a complimentary drink as I had sat waiting for a little while. very generous of her and will be returning in the near future to return the favour! many thanks :)
