Cafe Allez! in Melton - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Yes, this was an excellent cafe at the entrance to Belvoir Castle. It served a wide variety of savoury snacks, sandwiches, bauguettes etc. and a great choice of cakes!! As previously mentioned the coffee was excellent! Unfortunately they had to close early in 2022 due to no renewal of their lease. A sad loss!

Very quick and friendly service, and the most delicious bacon cob. The best I’ve had for a very long time!

Trying to savour Cafe Allez while it still occupies its present location, so called today for a spot of lunch after a walk from Barkestone . Had a most delicious pasty and my friend had an equally delicious Red Leicester and rocket sandwich , both accompanied by splendid coffees . As always , the staff were super friendly and still show love for what they do . How I will miss this place when it is gone !

I have used Caffe Allez a number of times and can heartily recommend it's coffee, food & (above all) it's super-cycle-friendly service. It's a great shame that it's lease has not been renewed to stay in the Belvoir Castle grounds - a loss for everyone - but I can see that it might be seen as competition to the newly refurbished Engine Yard cafe across the road. Anyhow, wherever Cafe Allez goes...I will seek them out - keep up the great work guys!

Just look at the reviews........the place is great and everyone agrees. But the greed of the Belvoir Estate means it won't be around much longer for all of us to enjoy the fab coffee, cakes and hot food. Mark and Clair have built something great and we only go to Belvoir for Cafe Allez.........so when they go, we will not visit again and will go to the new Cafe Allez wherever it appears. Most places would love to have a place like this attracting visitors and I'm sure somewhere will not be as short-sighted as Belvoir! Thanks M & C.

Excellent coffee, cakes. Home made soup is beautiful. Many Vegan options. Staff are always smiling and chatty. Parking here is free for at least an hour.

There is a lot of lovely cake and hot food, drinks to choose from at a good price too. The staff are Polite, very accommodating with you requests. The setting out side over look the vale of Beaver and on a clear day you can see a lovely 5 miles +. Looking out over vale Breathtaking.

Friendly staff and a great location . I always have the boat cappuccino which is always lovely and also the vegan baguette - highly recommended

I visited yesterday late afternoon with my teenage daughter. The weather was autumnal but there is now a marquee enclosed on 3 sides with heating enough to take the chill off. Very pleasant as were all the staff we met. The soup was homemade butter squash and the choice will vary most days. Served with bloomer it was a delight to be at Cafe Allez. I have always enjoyed regular visits at all times of year and have never been disappointed . The views across 3 counties are an added bonus.

Following our visit to the castle required a snack before moving on. Was not impressed with prices/selection in the Engine Yard so came across to this café at the castle entrance. Cheese scones with tea were the order of the day. Drinks only available in paper cups and scones (warmed in microwave) had to be collected from side of café and eaten outdoors (no plates provided) Scones were reasonable just a bit tuggy. Not cheap at £9 for two with tea.

Ignore the people moaning about the parking, it's Free for the first hour. Coffee from 200 Degrees is great and lovely cakes and cobs. Very friendly service.

decent coffee and selection of snack food don't park there unless you want a false £100 fine (see my castle review) very bike and walker friendly though- and I've never been fined for my bike being there, but initial parking are probably working on it.

Very tasty food - good quality ham in the seeded bread roll. Pleasant and helpful staff. Outdoor seating only but tarpaulin covered area as well.

Choice rubbish it was not worth the parking fee. I believe they only put the cafe there to try and justify ripping you off with the parking. Was really disappointed

Living only two villages away , I visit here regularly . Cafe Allez did an amazing job during lockdown of providing a fabulous coffee and cake service . Today , the filter coffee I ordered wasn’t as warm as I would have liked but it was changed ,without question , to freshly made Americano. I was even offered a complimentary cake ( which I declined ) , for the inconvenience . This is such a lovely place with friendly staff , fantastic views and a great selection of sweet and savoury treats . Will continue to visit , come rain or shine .

Cafe Allez is a regular haunt for me cycling around the Vale of Belvoir. Consistently great coffee (amazingly hard to find elsewhere) and the recent addition of a great filter coffee option is welcome. Sausage and bacon cobs always great but recently been enjoying hot sausage rolls. Date and orange slice is superb. Recommended stop

Such a treat to visit this wonderful cafe with my daughter. We love the coffee, smoothies and delicious warm scones. The service is also so warm, friendly and welcoming. Thank you to the whole team!

Great coffee and great bacon baps, excellent value for money and very friendly staff. Well done, would definitely recommend.

Extremely friendly/ sociable staff (that's a novel idea!) who make all the difference. Yes, they serve great food but also with an honest welcome...and still make time to chat as required.

Really fabulous coffee and the staff are always really friendly. We're local so get to walk up to the Castle car park, have our coffee (and cake!) and walk back through the beautiful countryside of the Belvoir Vale. The only downside is everyone has now...

First visit to Cafe Allez. Can see why they have predominantly 5 Star reviews. Great coffee, and a wide selection of snacks and treats. To top it all is the fantastic location, overlooking the beautiful Vale of Belvoir

Just the most special place to stop for coffee and cakes (and many other treats!) with exceptional service. This is a real gem and our coffee and scone combination today were delicious - as always. The team here are fantastic and always so welcoming, friendly...

Really friendly staff , great accessibility, truly delicious coffee and loads of seating . First visited when we went to the castle but more recently pulled off the A1 for a break here as we know the spot to be lovely.

Many thanks to the ladies at Cafe Allez who replaced my coffee when I spilt it for the second time when trying to remove the lid. I am just clumsy! Next time I promise to leave the lid on! And there will be many more...

After a long walk around beautiful Belvior Allez is the perfect place for a drink and a bite to eat. The staff are really friendly and make you really welcome. Looking forward to our next visit.

We have been busy getting ready to move house after 40 years in our current home. It's a busy stressful time and the perfect treat was a trip to Mark and Claire super cafe for a sensational cappuccino and unbelievable brownies (double chocolate!) absolutely fantastic....

Good selection of snacks and drinks, pleasant service, seating available on the grass area - all good in the current difficult climate.

My friend and I regularly meet here for coffee and a natter. Today I managed to spill my coffee over the table. The two lovely ladies behind the counter were very helpful and even replaced the coffee free of charge. How about that for customer...

Our second visit to this lovely takeaway cafe just up the road from the Engine Yard at Belvoir Castle. What a contrast to their neighbours at the Fuel Tank. Delicious coffee/teas, sandwiches, soups, either eat in your car or on picnic benches with amazing views...

This absolute gem of a place is found at the entrance to the fabulous Belvoir Castle. On the Castle Car Park. With stunning views of The Vale of Belvoir and within 2 minute walking distance of the wonderful Engine Yard retail outlet. Also outdoor seating...

Visited four times this year and can't praise the place enough. Really friendly staff, great coffee, loads of gluten free options (the scones are amazing!) and situated in the shadow of Belvoir Castle, with brilliant views overlooking the vale.

A lovely afternoon walk around the Vale of Belvoir. The weather was perfect as what the very welcome cafe stop. The tea was perfect, a choice offered, and the cakes hit the hunger spot. The best cherry bakewell slices we have ever eaten and believe...

My boydriend and I came from West Bridgford today and stopped in Cafe Allez for lunch. The food and coffees were delicious with very high quality standards . We both had a Stilton baguette, mine was with onion marmalade and rocket; I really enjoyed it....

This cafe is situated in the car park at Belvoir Castle so is welcome after the drive and before the climb to the castle. Can either order on line or in person. Good queuing systems in place. Several picnic tables available to enjoy your orders....

Excellent! We live locally but have never visited this lovely cafe.. today we walked to it and were not disappointed! The service was quick despite a long queue, nothing was too much trouble and the food was excellent. The icing on the cake was a...

Ordered some cheese scones with butter and they tasted delicious. They ran out of fruit scones so wasn't able to try those. The cob was good as well.

As part of a group of Vincent motorcycle owners riding around the East Midlands we called at Cafe Allez for a coffee and bacon butty. A superb location at the entrance to Belvoir Castle and stunning views of the lovely countryside. It was very busy...

We have been up to the castle to collect hot drinks and snacks before going for a walk a few times over the last few weeks. The food and drinks are delicious, the staff super friendly, and being able to order in advance (Or on...

Beautiful spot and great service. Sorted a problem with my food so quickly. Been 3 weekends on the bounce and will keep going as fantastic

Great quality food, excellent coffee and friendly service with a fantastic view. If like me you are back on a bike during lockdown can highly recommend this as a destination or stop en route to refuel.

My friend and I got caught in a storm whilst out walking the dogs. We arrived at Cafe Allez dripping wet and very cold! We were offered blankets and got warm with delicious coffee and sourdough toast. Staff were very friendly and welcoming as always.

Lovely staff, lovely plentiful food & drink at a reasonable price. Fabulous views over The Vale. Looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended.

Friendly staff and excellent surroundings to add to the good food and coffee. We would certainly go again.

what a great cafe - lovely dairy free cappuccino and sandwich. great views and service was brilliant. what a great addition to the Vale

All the car parks were full, so many people visiting on Sunday, but we parked on the road and found a table here. We both had sausage baps which were served very quickly. The cakes looked appetising but we resisted on this occasion. The service...

What a great little cafe! Next to the Engine Yard and by the entrance to the castle very friendly staff and top quality coffee and food. The dog liked his biscuits too.

After a long walk around The Vale of Belvior I decided to have a coffee at Cafe Allez. What a lovely find. Just had a coffee and a chat with owners Claire & Jake who were really friendly. Hope to call in again soon. Highly...

Stopped off for coffee and cake two weekends in the trot because the staff are so friendly and the food excellent. Has great views over the vale also. They make a big effort to make you feel comfortable and there’s no long wait, even if...

Had a coffee and cake here before we entered Belvoir castle. The lady and man staffing the café were so lovely. They were chatty and welcoming and the flapjack was just divine. We sat outside in the sunshine, it was just so lovely. Also do...

This really is a gem at the entrance to Belvoir Castle. The staff are second to none in my opinion and are always striving to make the visit a memorable one. Service is first class and throw in beautiful views across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Leicestershire...

As residents of the beautiful Belvoir locality my wife and I very much appreciate to arrival of Claire and her partner Mark at the little car park cafe at Belvoir Castle. The Cafe has superb panoramic views of the vale and the visitors experience is...

Stopped here for a drink after visiting Belvoir Castle. Pleasant cafe, with a nice menu. Staff were very friendly. Seating area available outside. Super little place.

We got caught in a cloud burst on our way back to the carpark after visiting the Castle. We took shelter in the Cafe Allez and enjoyed some really good coffee - thank you.

On a very windy day, we called here before visiting Belvoir Castle. We had Lincolnshire sausages on delicious rolls, which kept us going for a while! Also loved the cycling themed art on the walls.

Nice little "pit stop" after wandering around the castle. The staff were really lovely. Water bowls provided for thirsty dogs!

This cafe, as is suggested by the name, is a cycling friendly cafe. Of course, due to the high number of visitors to the castle, the cafe welcomes all types of customer. Even though it was packed during my visit, customers were being served quickly...

Cafe Allez have recently taken over the small cafe at the entrance to Belvoir Castle. They offer good value food and drinks. The menu was a bit limited on the day we visited, but the sausage sandwiches and tea were good and the staff helpful...

We called in for a couple of vegan all day breakfasts with all the trimmings. There is a grassy outside for two hounds to lay on. Huge car park, no access problems. Food and coffee served promptly. This is a really fantastic cafe and you...

Fantastic service (though it was busy) friendly, good quality food, excellent atmosphere. What makes a difference, is they care.

This has just re opened under new management. A much simpler rustic style to The Fuel Tank the two compliment each other well. We had just dropped in for tea and cake. The homemade cake choices were good and delicious. We were able to sit...
