Absolutely disgustingly disrespectful! I’m a transgender woman, and have been for a number of years, I do not look remotely male in any way.!! I visited the cafe today with my partner this afternoon, when I went up to the counter to place my order the “gentleman “ who served me whom I can only assume is possibly the owner or proprietor referred to me as “SIR “ while he took the order, I looked at him in disgust and disbelief and he corrected himself and said “sorry Madam “ I then asked for 2 coffees and he said “just normal coffees SIR”!!!! I could not believe what I was hearing? I then politely asked him to stop calling me SIR, he apologised again but the damage was done. I felt degraded and deflated to say the least, ok I may have a slightly deeper voice than some females but I definitely do not look like one, I can understand someone making a mistake we all do, but to make a mistake then correct yourself and apologise then in the very next breath do it again????? That is not a mistake, that is blatant ignorance and transphobia and there is absolutely no place for that kind of behaviour in this day and age. Obviously we will not be returning there again and I hope others from the LGBTQ community and beyond follow suit.

Well I ate in there a few months back and I was very disappointed with my toasted sandwich which came on a plate on its own. No salad, no coal slaw, it was on very thin bread and looked and tasted bland. There were young people working in there who were more interested in the young lad that was a customer, than the food they were serving. Show them how to dress a plate so that it looks inviting. Not a patch on Mrs T’s I’m afraid

Good food nice simple and not bad prices. Only gripe is that the glasses stink of eggs. They obviously don’t know about using vinegar before placing dishes that have had eggs on in the dishwasher! It was also very cold in there on the last visit which doesn’t help with wanting hot food

Cheap processed food. Absolutely appalling. My eggs where fried on an excessive heat that made the underneath go to the consistency of what I imagine chipboard would feel like in your mouth. The sausage reminded me of of mushed up baby food. I don’t think you would find a trace of pork in them. Coffee was nice. I left all the breakfast. Why they don’t use good produce is beyond me. Won’t be going there again.

Only visited once for breakfast and it was delightful. Lovely atmosphere friendly staff and great food. But my review is mainly for the stunning buffet prepared for my surprise party recently. Food quality was exemplary and remarked on by several guests who thought it was a local well known high class food store. Best scones, quality sausage rolls and a great nibbles selection and lovely fresh sandwiches. Beautifully prepared and presented. Can't thank you enough.

Thought I’d give this place a try, as I miss having a decent cafe near me. This place is just another run of the mill, mutton dressed as lamb combo. Cheap produce nothing sourced locally, bland and boring, you can tell the quality of a place buy their eggs. Mine were over cooked with that burnt golden hard shell on the bottom. The source bottles are Daddies. But I don’t know what’s in them? I think some cheap brand watered down. As it’s in wigston. The local people obviously don’t appreciate good food. Poor standard of food. Staff shouting out orders. I wouldn’t bother again.
