Cafe Europa in Kettering

Cash only and receipts hand written poorly good brekky though and tea well brewed 😁

Always love coming here. Great espresso, a wide variety of pasta dishes and an amazing atmosphere to be found inside. The owners are extremely welcoming and friendly with all their customers.

Best bacon and mushroom rolls ever.

lovely cafe, friendly staff, very reasonably priced. 😊

Loved it and will be back for that pasta!

One of the best pastas I’ve had in such a long while! I ordered the arrabbiata with extra chilli and it’s was perfection. Will definitely be coming back and recommending. Felt that authentic family feeling running the place

First time I have had a breakfast there today it was lovely Usually have a takeaway Which is great as well

I happened to be on training near Kettering. As I’d arrived early I was looking for somewhere to grab breakfast and came across this place. The food was good and hot with generous sized portions. Not going to claim things like the sausages were butchers finest but for the price it was great value with friendly service. It certainly attracts a lot of locals which is always a good sign to me.

Lovely home made food, specialy i love all pasta

Had an hour to kill before a meeting and stumbled across this place on the drive into Kettering. It’s cash only, unusual these days but if it works for them. I’m just glad I had some cash. It’s clearly a popular place with the locals. The staff were friendly, service was good and the Full English Breakfast was a good size, freshly cooked and really hot. Well worth £8 (includes Tea and Toast).

Always consistently well cooked food - top notch service - baguettes are nice - pasta is banging.

Perfect full English and good value

While the breakfast was wonderful as they naturally are but I Found a hair in the toast it really put me off my breakfast unfortunately so it would have been 5 stars if not for that

Very nice food! Lovely service from the lady's there! Will definitely be back for a fry up again :)

Just been in for breakfast, beautifully cooked, delicious and all served up by 3 very lovely ladies... highly recommend 👌🏻

Was served by this really polite and kind girl think her name was Chiara. Lovely name and great coffee:)

Great food great staff what else do you need.

Lovely staff, good food.Recommend a visit if your hungry.

The best in Kettering, nothing beats it. Authentic homemade Italian food would recommend to anyone out there.

Heard loads about this place but never made it in. Well it's now twice in less than a week. Food is all freshly made, tastes amazing and always service with a smile.

Beautiful place food is outstanding highly recommended lovely people as well.....the enzo is my favourite

Stopped off for breakfast and glad I did, lovely little place and the best breakfast I've had in ages. Seating for 14 in the place, more like a breakfast bar around the edge than tables, but highly recommend a visit.

Absolutely amazing food, they serve the best pasta. Clean place and friendly welcoming staff. Not a long wait for food at all. Overall really great place

Brilliant cafe fresh food and great service and the staff are always friendly and attentive to their customers

Smashing cafe run by smashing people serving smashing food.

Delicious food, very friendly staff and great service. Definitely recommend

Had lunch here two days running. Don't look any further than the pasta. Great quality, portions and value.

Great breakfast. Coffee. Pastas

Friendly local , freshly prpeared good grub . Had a great fry up this morning with a large mug of hot tea. Excellent.

Popped in for a nice coffee,read of the daily paper and watched the world go by outside. Tasted one of their homemade meatballs!!!! Absolutely delicious!!

Richard and I, en route from Cambridge to Shropshire, chanced upon this splendid cafe in Kettering, easily accessible from the A14. The cafe occupies a cosy space with a breakfast bar by the window, offering a lovely view of the local red-brick architecture, and a fine place from which to watch the colourful characters of Kettering passing by. Unlike some cafes, there was no 'greasy spoon' smell, which was a boon. Instead a delightful and appetite-arousing aroma of freshly cooked bacon and eggs. Richard opted for the small breakfast, and had no trouble in swapping out his eggs and tomato for black pudding and mushrooms at no extra cost. I ordered the much-vaunted breakfast baguette. The food was cooked freshly and served quickly. Richard was impressed by the appearance of his plate, and more so by the delicious food which he consumed with gusto. Richard said "the bacon was well cooked, the mushrooms were good, not too greasy, generally everything was well cooked, the only thing that could have been better was the sausage, which was fine but obviously a 'standard quality' sausage". My breakfast baguette was fantastic, the crispy bread was marvellous and the generous filling was hot and tasty, and not at all greasy. All this, plus two steaming cups of flavoursome tea for the bargain price of £9.90. We both took the opportunity to use the facilities and we're impressed with their cleanliness and the provision of Radox soap. On the whole a great find. We will certainly drop in again if we pass by on another adventure.

Find myself coming in this cafe atleast twice a week. Pasta dishes to die for that remind me of my Italian grandmothers home cooking. Great customer service, you won't be disappointed.

Iv been to cafe Europa a few times now and every time it doesn't disappoint the staff are always friendly and efficient and the food is amazing last time I went i had the carbonara and was the best carbonara iv ever tasted and the portions are very good for a very reasonable price

A fantastic little cafe, offering fresh tasty ingredients, Italian style pasta dishes, breakfasts , all cooked in front of you, you will be hard pushed to find better.Highly recommended.

Foods amazing, and really good value for money.

Honestly I'm a tough person to please but this place is amazing. I have eaten here 3 times now and the standard is consistent. It's great value for money and a very enjoyable meal. All the food is fresh and made to order. They need to relocate or extend the restaurant so there is a bigger seating area because I'm sure that's the only thing that is off putting for a customer when they are so busy and there is nowhere to sit. That's not enough to put me off going back tho the food is too good and makes a lovely difference from the disappointment you usually get from other restaurants that are half as tasty and twice as expensive.

I swear they put something in the food. My husband and sons have been eating there every week for 22 years, and woe betide if it's closed. Friendly atmosphere with a regular clientele, and it seems addiictively good food.

Tiny cafe with lots going on. Brilliant Breakfast it's great to get a seat in the window and watch the world go by. Really good price Cash payments only

Caffee spot per mangiare qualcosa veloce, accogliente ottimi dolci, non ho provato i primi ma avevano in bell'aspetto. Il tipico caffè dell'angolo

Use this cafe at least 4times a week very clean great atmosphere,very friendly staff,some of the best Italian food in Kettering.Andy d

Been to cafe Europa many time and everytime we have been the food and hot chocolate and coffees as allways been superb

Beautifully cooked food (you can watch it being prepared) in cozy surroundings. Always pretty busy. Staff are always friendly.

I was eager to try this establishment as it boasted authentic Italian food. However due to the slow service and cramped surroundings I will not be returning. The food was nothing special for that price I was expecting a little more.

Have been eating here for years- the breakfasts are yummy, the service is fast and friendly and the atmosphere is always buzzing - definitely worth a visit!

I've been eating in Cafe Euopa for over twenty years and the home style Italian cooking is consistantly fantastic. Home made fresh soup and tomato sauce every day, Other dishes not to be missed are the meatballs, bruschetta and the tastiest dish on the menu has to be the Paul's Special: spaghetti with Italian sausage, garlic,chilli,black olives,breadcrumbs,onions and parsley.A great place to drop into even if you are on your own as a warm welcome always awaits you.

Fantastic food and friendly staff best espresso around great atmosphere and spotless kitchen try the Italian dishes .

Been to this delightful,friendly cafe a number of times now. Have had a variety of breakfasts but the most fulfilling in my opinion is the Breakfast roll. A crusty long roll filled with eggs,tomatoes,mushrooms and bacon. Deeeeelicious!!!! Very clean cafe and breakfast can be tailored to suit. All food is hot and fresh and the tea is always tasty and hot,not wishy washy in other cafes.

great for breakfast straight after a haircut directly next door excellent food clean and tidy lovely people great

Cafe Europa is a small cafe with a huge atmosphere! All the staff are friendly and welcoming as are the regular customers. The food is delicious and Catalda and the girls will personalise your dish according to your tastes. My favourite things to eat there by far are the pasta dishes! Coming from an Italian background the pastas taste just like Mamma makes!Well worth the visit!

Called in to this place for breakfast whilst out motorcycling with a mate. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast items were all cooked fresh to order, quality and quantity top notch. Good value for money too.

Tiny cafe with a unique character, more like a club with all the regulars ordering'usual please' and Catalda knows what everyone will have. All is freshly prepared, just breakfast and lunch cooked while you watch. Best coffee for miles around

One of my favourite eateries in the land, I'm very lucky to have this as my local. All the food is freshly prepared on the day by the owner, Catalda, and whatever I choose always tastes wonderful. My personal favourites, apart from the best scrambled eggs and bacon in the world, are the pasta with salsiccia (Catalda keeps changing the name of this dish!), salad with Italian cheese and salami, and Paul's Special.

We have been going to Cafe Europa for many years; breakfast is fabulous. Great friendly service and place is spotlessly clean- scoring 5 for their ”Scores on the Doors”. They serve excellent coffee too-can recommend the Macchiato :-)

Oh and the pasta mozzerella is great too! Love this place and the quotes of the day can be quite amusing!

Cafe Europa is a wonderful family-run cafe, specialising in Italian food, all-day breakfasts, delicious home-made cakes and warm welcomes.I can highly recommend Cafe Europa in every respect: the food is great, the customer service is exceptional and friendly, and offers you the kind of value for money not often found these days. Children are welcome at Cafe Europa too, and my children's varying appetites and tastes are catered for without any fuss whatsoever. The Cafe is clean, well presented and the staff helpful and courteous - what more could you ask for? Go and see for yourself...

This is my favourite daily Cappuccino stop. The food is cooked to order and the pasta dishes are delicious, made with that special Italian flair ! Very clean and the staff incredibly friendly. All my family love it and one of those places where a quick cappuccino leads to an hour caught up with lively conversation with staff and customers. Visit soon you won't be disappointed.

I visited cafe europa a few months ago and loved it so much i go back every week. They are very clean which is a must plus the staff are kind and helpful to me and my 3 year old. The food is amazing and excellent value for money
