Cafe Latino in Canterbury

Such a lovely cafe, staff very friendly. The breakfast we had was so delicious and was just the right amount 😋 bacon was cooked just how we like it too. Recommended highly

Friendly,lovely staff, great food, great service, I regularly come here😊

Staff are lovely and warm coffee is excellent 👌 😀 basic menu but food fresh 😋

Tired old slices of cake under clingfilm, I knew it was a mistake to buy a piece! For some reason it had had icing sugar put on top of it when served, I guess to cover how insanely dry it was. Any moisture that had once been in the coffee & walnut cake had long since evaporated. What a shame. Coffee was just adequate.

My salad was lovely as well as the coffee. My companion had a ploughman's and the bread was disappointing as it was just plain sliced white. A roll or baguette would have been much better.

Friendly staff, great goat cheese salad

Good coffee and cakes with prompt service and reasonable price. As coeliac sufferer, pleased at the clear GF labelling and being wrapped, very reassuring.

OK if you are a dog lover. This small cosy coffee shop is now a pets paradise overwhelmed with dogs . Every customer seems to have at least two dogs which are held up at tables licking their owners food. THose sat on the floor are on long leads serving as a trip hazard for the unwary or jsut blosking access to the tables. The staff are polite and the coffee reasonably priced , but I do wonder about the hygiene side of things wit hpet owners seemingly doing as they please. If the owners want non dog owning customers ? suggest they only allow dogs on the outside tables. Will be seeking another venue for my coffee - a shame because i used to enjoy the cosy atmosphere .

Sorry but I really struggled to find anything nice about the food (limp lettuce, tiny portion and very warm) or coffee (americano tasting of hot water and cheesy milk) and the cutlery still had encrusted food on it. The staff were nice though. I don’t like to write a bad review.

Went to cafe Latino this morning, sat outside as the weather was nice and ordered a Latino breakfast. Really enjoyed my food and got a very generous portion for a low price. Also ordered a cappuccino which was perfect to get me going in the morning. Best coffee in herne bay especially for 2.75!

Great spot, friendly staff, lovely food.

A lovely and welcoming place for people and their doggy friends. Very nice iced coffees as well.

Went to Cafe Latino for coffee and possible lunch. After ordering two lattes with extra shot of coffee arrived which were both wishy washy & tasteless, we decided not to bother with the lunch, and left the coffees a few sips were enough.

Visited yesterday. The service is always slow here but yesterday was the worst yet - i could not get served at the table and I could not get served at the counter so I left and went elsewhere. Shame, because the food is not bad.

I have come in here almost weekly for over a year and the coffee is great. I’ve had a few different snacks and meals too and again, never had a bad experience. Staff are kind and friendly.

I have never tasted coffee quite like it!! I ordered two cappuccino’s. 15 minutes later I tried to locate waitress that took my order at the counter. No luck 😮. I found another waitress who said “we are extremely busy”. There were no more than 10 people already seated and either drinking or finished drinking! Within 5 minutes the coffee arrived. Again stating “we are very busy” but no apology. Worse was to come sadly. I think they missed when putting the coffee in the cup. It was similar to my first ever cuppa aged about 7. Hot milk with a couple of grains of coffee for colour. This did have foam though, about 2”of it! All in all 20 minutes and £5.50 I have wasted. I should have taken a photo but was so annoyed and left after repeatedly stirring to see if the coffee was stuck in the bottom of the cup somehow. It wasn’t 😡

Arrived at 3:46pm for a takeaway coffee, having heard how great the coffees were, only to be told everything had been turned off. They close at 4pm.

Lovely little cafe, they are very friendly and welcoming

Lovely little cafe with friendly staff coffee inexpensive with warm and cosy atmosphere. We will returning again when we next visit Herne Bay

It's a bit tired and grubby, to be honest. Cracked and chipped crockery gives a sense that it could do with a refresh.

Lovely coffee and snacks great friendly staff

Una cafeteria en la cual puedes relajarte tomando un cafe con los amigos. Se puede mejorar el cafe, el servicio muy bueno.

Absolutely great food and hospitality at very reasonable prices.

Great, friendly cafe with the best Mocka in Herne Bay and a great menu. Staff are great and very welcoming.Well worth a visit

Stopped for coffee and teacake and both were superb. No time limit to finish. Recommend to all.

Very friendly and reasonably priced excellent service

Nice place managed all by ladies. Very in budget food

Best coffee I've tasted in a while, proper espresso. My partner enjoyed the hot chocolate.

Friendly informal atmosphere, great service, been using this cafe for some years, never been disappointed.

Cosy coffee shop offers sandwiches and cakes. Very friendly staff

Lovely coffee, really friendly lovely people, fab sandwich I had today, would recommend

Good but would be better if it accepted card payments

Quality sausage with the breakfast. Fluffy scrambled eggs, nice enough coffee. Nice staff.

Good coffee and cakes friendly service. Fairly priced.

Lovely salad with avocado, goat's cheese and walnuts

Not the best in town, Cold coffee over priced and unfriendly waitress who needs a make over.. McDonalds all day for me, fresh, hot and friendly staff.

Always pleasant staff and nice coffee 👍🇮🇹

Always lovely staff and service.

Brilliant, friendly staff lovely to talk to and great stopping gap.

Lovely cosy cafe, staff very friendly.

The best place in the town for proper coffee. We had 2 espressos outside on a sunny day and the taste makes you think of all those holidays we will take again sometime. But don't miss out on enjoying life now.... who would have thought you would find such a gem in Mortimer Street. Didn't try the food but there looked as if there were some tempting options.

Great coffee and fantastic service..

Love this friendly place, great coffee and fantastic hand made chocolates to die for.

This place is not good an had been open all the time covid 19 do not go there they don't understand what social distance in customers Gathering outside on chairs and tables

Great place to relax. Lovely staff and owner

Decided to treat myself to a cafe breakfast while in Herne Bay. There are several cafes along this stretch of high street and I picked Cafe Latino.Good scrambled eggs and a nice sausage - and just the right size meal for me, though of course everybody's appetite is different. Excellent coffee. Decent value and friendly service.

Brought 3 cups of tea which cost 5.85 so it was 1.95 for one small mug of tea. When I asked I was told 1.95 is what it costs for a pot of tea and it is the same price for a small mug of tea. Good job I never asked for another three teas that would of been nearly 12 pounds absolutely outrageously expensive wont be going back there for a cuppa. And also when I asked about the price I felt I was in the wrong

This is a great local cafe with consistently first class coffee, which is always hot. Staff are really friendly and work really hard to please. We love supporting our local businesses and this cafe never fails us. The location is also great, cosy inside winter and great outside for watching the world go by in summer

A comfortable place to have a good cofee

loved it , had tea & cake , prices reasonable, friendly staff , worth a visit

A very pleasant place for a coffee and a chat, sandwiches made to order, cakes looked good. Staff were a hoot

A little coffee house which also has great hot chocolate and milkshakes. All made really well and fresh. Great home made cakes. Thanks

Excellent cafe/restaurant with comfortable lounging areas and great staff who are pleased to help the customer.

Visited with family, seven of us, mid afternoon for a coffee. Sat indoors and was advised straight away that a lot of the food items were sold out, which was understandable given the time of day and that the cafe is popular. We were fine as we only wanted drinks. Staff were friendly and served quickly. Quality was good and price reasonable. Butter biscuits were lovely.Thank you.

Food and drinks here are lovely x

Good service and decent food. Don't see the idea of tinned tomatoes in a little bowl!

This is a great little coffee shop in the middle of Herne Bay. We have been here several times now and love it. Great coffee and tea with a choice of various cakes on offer. Great for people watching with the outdoor seating. Staff always cheerful.

Good coffee, reasonably priced.

Just visited this lovely café with a group of friends. Great service and very friendly with delicious cakes! Would defiantly go back again on my next visit to Herne Bay, everything about it was charming.

Just after 3pm we stopped in Herne Bay for a drink and sandwich or panini. Unfortunately we chose this café with a few tables outside. Having ordered drinks at the counter, we were told that kitchen was closed and only cake available, so we ordered a piece of pear cake and plum cake with ice cream - the sponge had no taste and very little fruit. The teaspoons were stained and had rings of dried coffee on them, so weren't used. The fork had a pinky glaze on it that - when wiped with a tissue - turned out to be lipstick!!! I then had to ask for a spoon to eat the ice cream and was given a tarnished odd-shaped item. We were then made to feel uncomfortable asking to use the cloakroom which luckily was clean, but with a dirty towel. We should have said something, but had been made to feel unwelcome because they wanted to close at 4pm. Had they advised this when we arrived, we would have gone elsewhere. How I wish we had as the hygiene standards were disgusting and the whole experience unpleasant. If they can't keep the cutlery clean . . . what goes on in the kitchen???

Lovely little place & nice atmosphere

It's OK but the service offered needs to be with a smile

The best coffee in Herne Bay and also the best Iced coffee with ice cream very very nice and the staff are just the best

We eat here quite often, it's always fresh and very tasty. Staff are always very helpful.

Once again we were at this little gem for a coffee and cake. The staff seem to smile al the time and nothing is too much for them. Even my husband, who is not a great one for afternoon coffee, likes it a lot here. Recommendable!!

Very nice coffee shop. Good atmosphere and friendly staff. Will definately go there again.

I was walking into Herne Bay looking for a place for a coffee. Lovely atmosphere and the staff was very friendly. Only had a coffee but will be going back to have some cake as it looked delicious.

Cappuccino very poor, a weak bowl of milk with no coffee flavour and virtually no foam.

Lovely on a nice day to sit outside and we use as regular meeting point for meetings with friends and family for a chat

Friendly staffs! Excellent service and coffee!

Very nice we had a tea and coffee with a cake enjoyed it nice place would recommend this cafe

Always a good service. Pleasant staff. Lovely hot chocolate!!!

Attractive cafe with a lovely range of teas and coffees. Go for a sweet treat too and you won't regret the visit, the carrot cake is delicious! Light snacks, sandwiches available. Sit outside in the sun or inside in the attractive surroundings.

My husband and I came to Herne Bay for the day, it was a pleasant Sunday afternoon and we decided to stop at this lovely coffee shop, the ambience was lovely, the staff were ever so friendly and helpful, very accommodating. The coffee was superb with a lovely creamy taste. The breakfast was something else, the sausages were so flavoursome, the eggs were definitely free range and the bacon was so tasty. I will defiantly becoming back, lovely and welcoming

Pot of tea for two in the sun. Nice sheltered location where you can sit and watch the world go by. Friendly.

Myself, family members and friends stopped off at Cafe Latino for a quick bite to eat and a coffee Saturday afternoon.

The cafe is located so that the tables in the street are in a sheltered sunny location.

Decided to stop here for a late lunch/snack, I had a milkshake my partner had a fresh orange juice, both drinks arrived warm and tasteless, we also had the lasagna ! Bland and very small portions, the cherry on the cake was they only take cash, no signs up to pre warn you, unless it’s amongst the wall clutter.... so a walk to the nearest cash machine was had.. not impressed at all

Decent cafe. Reasonable prices

I used to eat here a while ago, the foods ok, nothing to jump at, it seems to have gone a little down hill, not as good as it used to be. I venture inside occasionally for a coffee but thats about it. Staff however are always friendly.

Tasty home made food. Hot chocolate to die for😊

Nice coffee, reasonably priced food, good atmosphere and excellent service.

Great coffee choice and quality - if a little pricey - and food served by friendly staff in a pleasant atmosphere with relaxing jazz music in the background.

Nice cosy cafe, we only had hot chocolate but it was very nice. Not too expensive

Lovely coffee, friendly staff & reasonable price.

... hey Latino guys ... love this little place but it's beginning to look shabby and tired ... take a day off and whiz the place up a little bit .. you have a lot of competition in the town now. I don't much like your new mugs much prefer the lovely white cups and glass coffee and hot choc holders.

My usual cafe was full so we came here for the first time, it was really good! Same prices as my normal and the coffees were both very good, comfy seats in the window and helpful happy staff, will come here again!

The service and quality of the food and drinks are out of this world . The restaurant is very clean and fresh. will always use this Café / Restaurant when in Herne Bay

Friendly staff, great atmosphere, food is wonderful, good selection of teas and coffees, cakes look amazing, you can sit inside or outside, you can see them making the food, my husband says you must try the milkshakes.

I frequent herne bay a lot, and recently cafe latino has been under new management of a lady called Jo. And I cannot fault it, the coffee is perfect every time I ended up having several cups and sitting out the front for three hours, the service was incredible and made me feel very welcome. I also tried the mozzarella tomato and onion baguette and it was sublime. I will be back as often as I can, if you're in herne bay you would be wise to pay a visit, comfortable seating inside and out and plenty of choice from milkshakes to teas and coffees!

Good food lunch or a coffee albeit the menu could do with changing from time to time and it can be a bit pricey

we like this place for coffee & cake but its crowded & often we cant get a seat maybe because its so good & popular but others i know have similar complaints about seating/crowded/cramped space inside

This café has the best coffee in Herne Bay and we went there every day .The staff are very nice and gave a warm welcome

They served me a plain baguette, it tasted alright, but for that price level (£6) I expected something luxurious. Very slow service too.

We sat outside at a table in the sun - a real sun trap in a sheltered location. Staff friendly and quiche Lorraine lovely.

Popped in here during the afternoon. Good choice of hot drinks and light meals on offer. We had a latte, hot chocolate and a chocolate muffin each. Was very nice, service was good. They could do with offering more choice of cakes but it was late afternoon so perhaps choice was more limited than in the morning. Not the most economical place in the town for a coffee and cake but nice once in a while.

Lovely spot especially in the sun and some tables and chairs outside. A bit on the steep side, it's Herne Bay £16.50 for a baguette and a meagre salad is far too OTT.

Nice place to sit and have a coffee and maybe cake or filled sandwiches. The sun is lovely and warm and you can sit for a while and do people watching

What a great find in Herne Bay, the staff are friendly and helpful! The Coffee is the best for miles and they serve the best bacon sandwich in the world! Lovely relaxed vibe in this busy (for good reason) little gem of a coffee shop!

we popped into cafe latino as it looked very welcoming . the panini and jacket potato we had were very nice and could'nt fault the service . The only minor thing was no frappe/frappuchino in the winter months! although the lattes we had were yummy enough!
