Cafe Nero in Epping Forest - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Nice quiet space and a good variety of pastries, toasties abd great variety of hot drinks, frappes, iced lattes, smoothies. I ordered the pistachio and salted caramel frappe with whipped cream on top. It was sweet enough for me so asked for a bit more syrup and they did. Very nice.

Lovely Neros and super friendly staff. Great of you have your dog as well.

The woman who works there (presumably duty manager) needs to be properly trained. She's rude, abrupt and unfit to deal with customers. She does not greet on arrival, unnecessarily complicate things and is unwilling to deal with complaints.

I love Nero coffee, however, my takeaway coffees have been consistently shocking with regards to how much is actually in the cup. Is it normal for a regular cappuccino to be half full? This has happened the last 4/5 times I’ve taken coffee away from here.

Great food, service and love that its dog friendly. Just find with most Cafe Neros that they look a little tired and dated. This one was no exception.

Good coffee....and service was great.

Just had coffee with my son in law and grandsons. Service was a little slow but the drink was fine.

Have always enjoyed ambience in this place. The staff may change, but always helpful.

Great warm friendly and pet friendly

Nero head office very very slow at repairs ranging from repairing display fridges to toilet(no loo for a week) and currently a broken seat for the last 4 weeks! Think of the customers more. Urgency required.

Very popular today. Did get seat near the end of the line. It can be a bit of squeeze in the aisle. The lady who serve me was helpful and friendly approach. Enjoyed my bacon, Brie and cranberry pienni and the cappuccino

The young trainee boy was great, very sweet and friendly. The lady working with him was rude and made and had no customer service skills, she grunted at me and pointed to the card machine and didn't tell how much it was, she also made me a rubbish coffee which tasted like a cup of hot milk, which I threw away as it wasn't drinkable. Send her back to customer service and batista school. The trainee was great and my boyfriend loved the mango chiller the young boy made him. Maybe the trainee could train her.

Came here on Sunday. The young trainee boy was lovely, very sweet and polite. The lady working with him was extremely rude and made a rubbish coffee which just tasted like hot milk, I couldn't even drink it, I threw it away, big waste of money. I wouldn't come back here because of her.

The store is small, clean, tidy, bright, vibrant, comfortable and colourful. The staff are friendly, well mannered, professional, sociable, respectful, understanding, welcoming and knowledgeable about their product. The price is overpriced for food and drink but it is good quality and I paid £2.25 Belgian chocolate and crispy caramel. It is sweet, flavourful, delicious, chocolatey, crunchy, caramel and mouthwatering which is good. I have been there and it is good because it reminds me of upmarket food with good quality but their price is expensive but when you buy it has good taste, you should go there before it is too late.

I don't usually use Nero as I'm more a Costa customer, but I loved 2 things on this visit, the new blend they offer and the Gluten-free Oat Dairy alternative. The environment was lovely, thanks to the lighting and the decorative fireplace.

Best coffee & atmosphere in my opinion of branded coffee shops

Pleasant, clean environment. Kind, polite service.

The customer service excellent, and the coffee and cake very delicious. Thank you for the comfortable and clean shop.

I just ordered here and u fortunately what I ordered was sold out. They were very nice about this and send us a note and a different item that’s was just as good. Amazing customer service 🤝

just went in to get a coffee..staff are not welcoming no smile ni good morning infant they looked as if they both didn't want to be there today but you can still put a smile on your face won't be going back that's for sure! and I'm only giving the 3 stars for the coffee.

Great coffee, food was below average, staff were friendly enough.

Appalling service, staff are particularly rude and tables left unclean. Would definitely recommend that you avoid this place at all cost.

Asked for a pistachio latte got an almond latte 🤦🏼‍♀️

chairs stacking the the doorway inside no seating out side when asked why at 4pm had the seating been taken from outside they said rudely because closing at 6pm !!!!! two hours before closing son a lively sunny day

Long queue, no available seating, but coffee good and strong

Lovely Coffee, good atmosphere, dog friendly.

It is one of the best around but they are generally good I've used them from Exeter to Berwick and from Belfast to Canterbury and even in Warsaw the Polish capital

Always a great place for coffee and cake and chat.Staff are always willing to help with your relevant requirements. No long waits, pleasant and congenital atmosphere. I love it there.

This place has gone downhill fast.. New staff have serious attitude and no people skills.. Manager with glasses being main culprit.... come back Brittany

They have the best tasting coffee in town and they also have some of the best sandwiches.

I like the coffee but it seems that every time I go I can never get a seat because there are customers working on laptops there. I’ve even seen one woman bring food from somewhere else into the premises and continue working. Meanwhile, I think I’ll look into getting my coffee and snacks elsewhere.

If i could put zero stars I would, the lady with the glasses served me this morning. She raised her voice to me in front of other customers to humiliate me after I explained my issue I had with my drink. Will not be visiting this branch again, staff need customer service training!!!! 11:20am on the 11/11/22

Great team, coffee and plenty of options to have a quick bite.

Favourite coffee shop in Loughton, friendly staff , great coffee and the dog can come inside with us to.

All staff are kind, friendly and very patient as they have to deal with a fair few rude and impolite joe public with no manner's. The food and drinks are delicious and always served with a smile and “have a nice day” 🙂

Lovely place for a coffee .dog friendly

Empty food fridges on a Sunday morning....very poor.

Very nice coconut latte. Very nice staff too.

The head staff at the Loughton branch was extremely rude and very disrespectful. Shouting back when enquiring about loyalty stamps when purchasing a drink and asking for key to bathroom.

Cosy, relaxed and comfortable, it was great stopping here for a coffee.

Met a couple of people there. Hot chocolate was fine and the young lady who made it was very nice.

The Dtaff are very friendly and quick and efficient xx

Great store as far as Nero’a go. The staff here are excellent, especially a very kind and helpful blonde girl who works there. Would recommend over most places in Loughton.

Lovely little coffee shop with friendly staff. Loughton has a lot of places to choose from for coffee, but you know what to expect from Nero (good coffee!).

Nice serene place but I had a few times problem with staff...cold and distanced almost mechanic.

What happend? I used to love this coffee shop, good atmosphere. The staff were friendly and welcoming now that's all gone! Pre making the drinks , so God know how long is has been sitting there! The layout is terrible, with dirty stained seats that should be put in the skip! The whole place has gone down hill. Starbucks has a new customer now!

Always a good place for coffee. And chill.

Staff are quite disrespectful Toilets are always closed. Try and explain that to a 3 year old. Really didn't like it.

Good food good service well recommended

NERO IN Loughton has amazing staff so lovely and friendly. Its about 12 months that new people running the shop. No customer service at all , so rude and arrogant ! Terrible experience today ,Friday afternoon before 1700pm. Disappointing really

Good coffee, good staff and covid safe. Simples.

This is such a brilliant cafe and makes Loughton High Road worth a visit on its own. Even in lockdown this is a great cafe just for the friendly staff, but can't wait until we're allowed to sit inside again

Ludicrous that Caffè Nero are contributing to a cashless society. No signage at tills to say no cash taken. Food wastage - as it had already gone into the grill when they refused my cash! Which means it was then thrown out! An appalling waste! And just a shrug of the shoulders from the barista! My bank card is lost and the small amount of cash I have is all I have until the card arrives. Terrible service, terrible attitude of staff and WILL NOT be returning. Cash is legal tender therefore you have an obligation to accept it Disgusting on all counts. Will be spreading the word!

Just love the rich roast of their coffee

Despite being a large chain coffee shop, this one is particularly friendly and cosy. Always clean, the staff here are happy and friendly. Great coffee!

Open again hooray. The best coffee.

I will never set foot in this place again! Just this morning I sat in the shop and there were two ladies there who were clearly ill, kept coughing and sneezing and were making everybody around uncomfortable.I have discreetly informed the staff about it , and one of them, a large, mouthy lady barista, told me that if I had a problem with that, I should take it up with them myself,or just move somewhere else! The tone of voice was far from nice, she practically shouted at me!. Imagine now if some vulnerable people get sick as a result of this, in these scary times of pandemic!! The staff should be there to ensure the safety of their customers! And to be safe themselves too, since they are serving so many people and could potentially infect so many others! Absolutely appaling treatment, complete disregard for the health of their customers. Do not go there!!

The staff talk about their customers with total lack of respect. Just listening to the female barrister with the glasses. Extremely self opionated.

Nice place for a cuppa relaxing

Nice coffee shop friendly staff

Lovely tea/coffee and cake with two daughters, two grandsons and two dogs. Very welcoming and comfortable.

1st time here but was quite impressed as very clean which is important if you are having something to eat. Staff were helpful polite and smiling and made a lovely cup of tea and coffee. Overall warm and friendly place

Love this place and especially my free O2 drink!

Nice place, good coffee, vegan cake was tasty. Miła atmosfera, a ciasto Vegańskie na prawdę smaczne!

Friendly staff and friendly for dogs too amazing warm atmosphere good jod

Such a lovely atmosphere and coffee is great

Hidden Gem, I love this place very discreet quiet and the layout and coffee are a blast the perfect place to hideout and read a book study and get things done especially on a rainy day. Absolutely Perfect 😃👍

As always here the coffee and pastry was perfect. Service with a friendly smile.

Good coffee. Efficient and pleasant Baristas.

Reliable chain that seldom disappoints but rarely exceeds expectations. This branch then a pleasant surprise with an atmospheric and cosy interior that affords relative privacy and comfort in a tastefully designed setting. Outside seating. The usual acceptably adequate standards here and staff on point and polite. This a stand-out branch.

I will be honest. Personally i am a Starbucks fan with the occasional Costa Coffee and Pret... But the coffee here was surprisingly very tasty. Haven't tried the baked goods though.

The Loughton branch of Caffé Nero has a lovely, chilled atmosphere. The seating is comfortable and cosy and the area is well maintained and kept very clean. The coffee served is delicious (I had a Vanilla Latte with Coconut Milk - yum!) and the staff are very chatty and friendly.

Friendly place friendly staff nice food

Good tea as well as coffee and yummy Scicilian lemon cake

Freindly staff and great atmosphere in this place will visit again, well recommended to all who visits.

Excellent service with a smile

This is a good sized place, with plenty of comfy seating. The staff are great, always helpful and very friendly! Coffee here is always good.

I must say that every time I go to have a coffee and a pastry in cafe Nero i always get a good service. The pastries always nice freyand daily cooked. There is no need to mention about the coffee. Not all their shops good but I love going to Loughton one.

Always enjoy coming to Nero in Loughton. The staff are friendly and the coffee is consistently good.

Great cup of decaf coffee and carrot cake. Staff are always helpful in there. Delicious food and drinks.

Awesome coffee... dark atmosphere but very comfortable seating.

What can I say it a good coffee shop 👍

Buen servicio. Asequible. Buen café.

Excellent coffee. Always consistent!

Excellent homely and relaxing atmosphere. WiFi available as well as sockets where one can plug in their phones or laptops for charging.

Love the loughton Nero, such a great and relaxing environment for a Sunday morning coffee...

Cosy place to drink coffee helpful staff.

Nice coffee. Outdoor seating in the sun

I love coming here. The staff are always friendly. Although it's a chain coffee shop it has the feeling of a friendly local coffee shop. My favourite place to relax for a coffee in Loughton. I love the scones with jam and cream! Always iced water available. Toilets clean.

Very polite and friendly staff. Coffee was excellent - stronger than Costa's and goes without saying better than the watery garbage you get at Starbucks. Place is spacious with a nice chilled vibe. Clearly a big magnet for mums and prams in the area

Personale cordiale, è un buon caffè

Cafe Nero in the middle of Loughton High Road has become a firm favourite every time I visit Loughton. In particular I find the staff very friendly and helpful. The cafe has a good, relaxed atmosphere and the the coffee is good. The free (cloud) wifi usually works very well. There always people here, relaxing, chatting, and the place is perfect for a break from shopping or for catching up with friends.

Good decor, nice coffee and friendly staff.

Very nice coffee shop. Coffee is very nice it has a mix of seats some are more conformable if staying a while. Excellent WiFi which is a big plus over the Costa which has really slow WiFi and poor mobile signal.

Great coffee, I conceived my first child there

Love this place. Just nice to sit and chill with a coffee and maybe a bite to eat. Can also take my dog there which is always a bonus! 😊 Great staff too 😊

Usual fodd and drink so ok. However TOO MANY PESKY DOGS !!!

Great coffee. Very pleasant service thx

Friendly and generally has seating available

Good coffee, relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff.
