Centro Lounge in Charnwood

Visited for a quick drink and everything was as expected. Didn't eat but food did look tasty. Also dog friendly which is a bonus.

Absolutely love this place. Always bang on and staff always friendly. It was extra busy with 2 large tables and they accidentally gave our order to one of them but they delt with the situation really professionally, kept us well communicated with the situation and fixed it really quickly. Love this place

You just lost 2 regulars who used to spend £60-80 a month with you. We walked in yesterday, ordered food (the app wasnt working) and waited 30 minutes for lounge breakfast and red potatoe chips. The food arrived and we were quickly told that they are closing in 10 minutes. Why did they not point it out when ordering food? and if it wasn't for the long wait, that would be plenty of time to eat. Worse still, my chips were completely burnt, I looked for one that wasn't but they were inedible. Perhaps you employed wrong people but anyone with common sense knows enough what burnt food looks like and knows NOT to serve that. Very disappointed as it was my weekly destination in the town centre. We will not be going back or bringing friends here any more. Train the staff and ask them to not run away once they announce something, so that complaints can be handled there and then, not resulting in online reviews (which also take time). Just awful.

Came in after we checked out from an air b&b for the weekend! 14 of us...was it an issue? NO!! Thank you so much for accommodating, for the service, for the welcome and most importantly, the FOOD!!

We visited for brunch on Easter Sunday and had great service and great food. We had a dog with us, and they offer free treats and water. We can also recommendations the bacon butty as our four-footed pal wolfed that down and was very happy. The large lounge breakfasts were delicious and the Miami breakfast was fantastic--a little out of the ordinary and absolutely great.

There were only 5 of us in there at the time. The food appeared on the serving area but the 4 serving staff didn’t seem to notice, eventually the food made it to the table, one fork full in and the waitress asked if all was ok, it seemed ok. The next fork full was cold and the whole dish seemed to be luke warm. Husband’s meal was also just warm. Flavour of the bang band cauliflower was underwhelming. Service average for saying there were so many staff doing nothing.

Just what you expect from a lounge. Good food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff.

Stylish restaurant with lovely staff and delicious food. Big thumbs up from me 👍

Food was ok.Service good. Nice interior.

Came for a Birthday meal before Theatre visit on Thursday 27th March. I’m GF so placed my order at the Bar with the Manager. I ordered a Halloumi Burger at £13.50 was not asked if I wanted Chips or Salad and it was printed on menu. When it arrived there was chips which I didn’t want. When the manager walked by I asked her why I wasn’t given an option she answered “oh just an oversight” and as she walked away she said “shall I change for side salad” not wanting to upset the party of people I just said no. The Gluten free bun was rock hard, un edible and there was two of the tiniest pieces of Halloumi I’ve ever seen for £13.50. A whole block of good quality Halloumi is only £3.00 So very very disappointing and won’t be revisiting and would not recommend your establishment to anyone. And just to say I would have said all this on the night but didn’t want to as I was with a group celebrating

Love it, especially the breakfast.

Excellent staff and very good with allergies

We had a lovely breakfast on Thursday morning. Food was what we've come to expect from the Lounge bars, always on point. The restaurant was the usual eclectic style, that we love. Always recommend 👌🏼

The food was amazing. It's hard to tell who is staff and who isn't as the staff don't have uniform or name tags. My friends chicken was over done but as soon as we told a staff member they changed it for a fresh one. At one point tho, we couldn't find a staff member when needed so had to wait for them to b present

There is a nice atmosphere at the Centro Lounge generated by the friendly, efficient and attentive staff. We enjoyed a tapas meal and were able to select from a wide range . Each dish was tasty and of generous proportions. There is a wide choice of drinks on offer at reasonable restaurant prices with water tap water freely available at the bar on a help yourself basis

Lovely food, smiley helpful staff and good value.

Lunch deal with the veggie soup was gorgeous, definitely recommend having their shakes!

A great restaurant, cosy warm and friendly with super service. We had the lounge breakfasts, a favourite of ours. The downsides today was the sausage & bacon. Neither was cooked well enough. The sausage was cold & anaemic looking. Really disgusting. Bacon was quite fatty & needed another couple of minutes in the pan. But - To their credit, the staff sorted it & bought fresh cooked sausages.

amazing food, delicious drinks and friendly service :) i came here with my boyfriend for a "valentine's day part 2" date and we decided we wanted to try somewhere new. we loved the games available and the drinks were amazing - my boyfriend doesn't drink and he had just as good a time as me, which i really value when we're finding somewhere new for date night ! we loved it so much we came back a couple days later for food too

Great restaurant with a wide range of choice!

Thanks to a friend of mine for recommending this place. I have been a couple of times now trying to work my way through the menu. Honestly soo good and such a lovely staff.

Lovely snug eatery .nice atmosphere ,great service. Delicious food

Excellent food....We had the Rump steaks....they were cooked to perfection! Service was on point, nice chilled atmosphere...will deffo be back to check out their breakfast.

The restaurant is lively and very pleasant, the service is friendly and prompt. The food is really great, and very good value.

Really good for gluten free options. I was really spoilt for choice.

me and a friend ordered two tapa plates today and both of us are feeling sick. some kinda food poisoning due to badly cooked food. disappointing because it must have been very badly done if we only had tiny servings anyways n

Took my brother and sister in law last week when we visited Loughborough as my husband and I live in Yorkshire Was good but massive let down was the churros as it took ages

Absolutely stunning lounge breakfast. Staff were welcoming and food was delivered extremely quickly. Definitely worth a visit.

Had a great experience at Centro Lounge Loughborough. The staff were friendly, accomadating and so welcoming. Food was great and menu is quite varied compared to other restaurants. Worth a visit instead of the usual mainstream restaurant chains. Matt the manager on shift was very friendly, definitely will be visiting for the good food and friendly atmosphere again.

A group of 10 of us ate here on 20th December as a pre-Christmas get-together. Everything was spot on, the food, service, and general ambience. We all had a lovely evening and will definitely return. All in all, a great place.

I had the tuna panini melt with chips, and my nephew had fish finger and chips off the children's menu. The meal for two was under £15, but I wasn't overly impressed with the panini. The children's meal was very good, and the hummus and breadsticks with carrots is a nice touch. I've been to 43 lounges, and this one ranks outside of my Top Twenty. Pleasant service and clean throughout 👌

Amazing resturant/bar 👏🏻 amazing food and decent prices will recommend to everyone 👌🏼 I will be going again 😀 👍🏻

The atmosphere is fantastic, always feels special to go there, it has a boho art vibe and the lighting creates the perfect relaxing ambience. Fab milkshakes! Ideal for family celebrations or dinner with friends, highly rated this place

Good food and friendly. Really good vegan menu. I'd recommend the ve burger and the ve Breakfast.

Group meal. Staff were excellent, food delicious and Drinks fab.

I have an allergy to tomatoes in any form so asked if they could tell me which foods I need to avoid, but as it’s not one of the 14 listered allergies, they couldn’t tell me and It was up to me if I wanted to take a chance. They were unable to check. I find this disgusting. When we did order via the QR Code and ordered starters and mains, and they were all brought together. Food was on cold plates, and food got cold very quickly. Really could do better, a disappointing evening.

Great food and fun games to add some entertainment. Service was fantastic. We were only in the area for 24hrs and we visited for dinner and breakfast!

It's ok. Foods nice and the staff are very good at their jobs and friendly etc. The decor is lovely. But the noise just ruins it for me. What could be a relaxing chilled out place is just loud. Loud music, which in turn causes everyone to talk louder and it just brings a sense of chaos in the atmosphere instead of a relaxing vibe. No good for people with sensory issues/being overwhelmed with chaotic environments, etc. If these things don't bother you, then it's definitely worth a visit 😊

Always a pleasure to dine here.

It's a great vibe for a catch-up with your friends. The Nasi Goreng was amazing. Highly recommend.

Good atmosphere amazing staff and customer service but unfortunately the food is not good. We had bang bang cauliflower as a main with noodles etc it was so soo oily and had zero flavour. The tapas we ordered were also tasteless and overly oily. Just in one of them we manged to squeeze out oil onto several serviette's. Coils not eat food of this quality again .

Nice meal Female staff nice Male staff a bit standoffish Left feeling satisfied

We had a couple of tapas each for a quick impromptu lunch. The staff were very helpful in helping us get food which is gluten free and wheat free for one of our group of 3. Prompt service as usual. Good choice of food including vegan menu.

Good value and good selection of dishes

Decor in usual lounge style but layout a bit like a school gym set up for exams!

Super nice retro decor atmosphere

It was busy, and quite loud, Decent food quality service was alright I would come here again

nice chill out place look out fir days with offers on

Food was tasty, though portion sizes felt poor for the price.

Great food- small portions. Left there still hungry

Very disappointed with my meal yesterday. I ordered the lounge breakfast. I waited quite a time for it. When it arrived it was clear that the fried egg at least had been left under heat as the yolk was dried up. The rest of the food was cold. I complained to the waitress who asked if I would like another one. I said I would expecting a fresh plate of food. Very shortly it was brought back to me and it was the same plate of food. I knew this because I had cut a piece off the sausage. The food this time was so hot I couldnt eat it. it had clearly been reheated in the microwave. However the heat hadnt reached all of the baked beans and the fried egg was inedible. I picked it up on my fork and it flapped around like an egg from a joke shop. Who reheats a fried egg in a microwave?! In fact who would attempt to reheat a fried egg that was already dried out.? A different waitress cleared away and I showed her the food. She agreed with me. I asked her to pass my complaint to the chef, and she assured me that she would. I will not be going back to that restaurant again, nor would I recommend it to anyone.

Very disappointing. I ordered the Lounge Breakfast. Waited quite a while for it. The fried egg looked dry and congealed. The mushrooms were stone cold and the sausage was luke warm. I complained to the waitress who was apologetic and asked if I would like another one. I said I would. I expected to get a fresh meal but the same meal was brought back very quickly so hot I had to wait for it to cool down! It had clearly been put in a microwave. The fried egg yolk was totally dried out and I could pick it up on the fork and it flopped around like a joke egg you would buy from a joke shop! When the waitress came to clear away I showed her the egg and told her I was not happy. She agreed with me and I asked her to show it to the chef and advise him that you do not reheat eggs that are already dried out. She confirmed she would tell the chef and apologised. This is the second bad meal I have had here. The last one was a flat bread which was too hard to eat. I would not recommend this place to anyone and I definitely wont go back there.

Old world charm, excellent food, great service

The hot cakes are delicious, the salad is delicious, and the English breakfast is also a combination that can't go wrong. It's not a matter of whether it tastes special, but it's good if it's average. The restaurant's atmosphere was good, so it was an even more enjoyable meal.

£10.30 for a glass of wine!! Very noisy environment. Food was warm and mediocre. Not going in again. Staff were friendly but overall very poor value for money.

Lovely atmosphere - very welcoming. The food was okay, nothing special but the staff were lovely and welcoming.

Lovely atmosphere and tasty food

Probably the best place in Loughborough for a catch all meal or drink. Very Bohemian atmosphere with food and drink suitable for all ages and party types. Food might not blow your mind but I nor anyone I have gone with never had anything you could describe as a bad meal there. Suitable for casual coffees, dates, family meals, work gatherings, just a real catch-all place.

Not that great, I had chicken and it was dried, the coating was grainy and not very nice. Hash browns were delicious and fresh, so was the coleslaw - basically sides were the start. Wouldnt go back but believe locals love it, there was a lot of people. Service was great and the place is beautiful.

Beautiful Miami Brunch, tasty and spicy. Good coffee. Bit chilly, needed a blanket!

Comes across looking very middle class, and at times full of students, but it's an ok place. Food is nice, drinks decent but most of all, dog friendly.

Absolutely great place for family and friends to have great food & drinks in a friendly atmosphere.

I've been here a couple of times, and each time, the food and service were excellent. Would definitely recommend it, especially for breakfast

This was my first time here and it was all good. Nice food and quick service. Really fair prices for the quality of food as well! Definitely a good option if you're looking for food in Loughborough!

Good food and service. Well situated in town

Found easily in Loughborough town centre, I immediately loved the atmosphere of the place. Seated quickly and found we could order food at the bar or online via QR code. The food came out quickly, was substantial and also very tasty - so much so that we went back the next morning and again, wasn't disappointed.

Work’s leaving night out for a member of staff, looked forward to spending time together and enjoying food in a relaxing atmosphere. The atmosphere was more like a noisy pub than a restaurant… the menu was unusual and when the food arrived it was cold and tasteless. Very disappointed.. nothing on the menu you wouldn’t have at home.. no wow factor.. not great service.. the whole evening was a complete let down.. i definitely won’t return or recommend.

Easygoing and relaxed place for breakfast and lunch. Always great service 👍

Great place for everyone with good choice of food and drinks for anytime of the day

Nice cafe lounge very relaxed and dogs aloud too. It was just a bit noisy and loud for me.

Staff were friendly and it’s good that they have such good allergy awareness however they managed to give away my daughters order to someone else and managed to only serve me half of my salad! Seriously there isn’t much to a salad! but I had to chase the chicken first and then the avocado. More attention to orders before they go out needed.

Had tea here with my daughter. Great relaxed dining with nice range of food and drinks. Also do different meal and drink deals through out the week. Good atmosphere. Friendly staff. Great tasty food.

Wonderful visit. The food choice is great. Very thorough with precautions for my nut allergy. Staff are all friendly and the service was fantastic also!! Well worth a visit.

Really tight small portions with salad and chips. Male waiter was really angry accusing our party of ordering a wrong main, to then come back and tell us it was for someone else but no apology. The music was so loud we couldn't hold a conversation without shouting. Turn the volume down.

Great both indoors and outdoors

Staff throwing empty bottles into a bin behind the bar, unnecessary loud noise, supposed to be a lounge not a back alley

Good place to hang out with friends, have a meal and chat. The food I had tasted great.

Visited Centro Lounge today with my Husband & Granddaughter the chicken they were served was not digestible they did not enjoy it, not value for money, also the noise of glass bottles being thrown into a bin is very excessive.

food is always fantastic, literally enjoyed everything I've ever had from the menu. beautiful environment and staff are all lovely. good prices too, average of £10-15

Good coffee and lovely chocolate brownie. It's a shame they let dogs inside - one couple had brought their large dog in and it wouldn't sit still. In the end it lunged for a meal on the adjacent table, and the owner spilled her coffee on herself when it pulled on the lead. Not exactly a relaxing experience for the other customers; it would have been better to not allow dogs in these more upmarket restaurants.

Was a lovely experience team were friendly and food was lovely

Great food and drink options. Fast friendly service. Will deffo visit again.

We had a great time, the food was good.

Went there for Thursday lunch. Staff were super friendly. You can order with a QR code or with a bar. Huge menu with loads of options for all tastes. I got the Miami Brunch with added chorizo and the Mango Tiki Shake for a drink. Both tasted really good I would recommend.

Food came quick considering it being busy however I wish it never did, steak was rubbery and gave me jaw ache and partners chicken was pink. Not impressed considering I have never had a bad experience in other “lounges”.

Food is great but mine had to be chased up. Atmosphere for me spoilt by people shouting over the loud music. Probably quieter in daytime.

Great food and cocktails in this popular town centre restaurant, but the ladies toilets look like a disaster zone! Broken seats, paper and mess everywhere.

Organised my daughter’s 16th birthday party. Amazing staff, great service, means a lot for first party like that with friends. Thank you

Great place to have a relaxed breakfast, lunch, and dinner at.

Brilliant brunch on a Sunday morning. The place was amazingly busy, and despite us having to order separately our food arrived together. Staff were really good, the place had a brilliant atmosphere, and its certainly our new go to!

Popped in on the spur of the moment on my birthday and had a fantastic meal. We had 2 burgers which were absolutely delicious and a fantastic chicken/bacon/avocado salad which was huge and tasty. Really really impressed. Prices were fine and service was quick despite the restaurant being full and busy. Nice vibe in the place with people of all ages and types. Will definitely be back.

Food was good and the guy that took our order was polite but it was all ruined by the disgusting attitude of the miserable woman in the plain black tshirt that served our food.

Visiting my daughter at Uni in Loughborough, and she recommended here. What a great choice! Had the big breakfast, and honestly don't think I have had a better one ever! Setting in really relaxed, clean and friendly. Staff are just great too. We'll done.

Dogs allowed, always a pleasant atmosphere and decent music

Good international options meant we had a family choice of Malaysian, American and Spanish with some good looking Mediterranean & Mexico menu options too. Laid back atmosphere , not the quickest service and not all meals piping hot when arrived but friendly staff and tasty food and pretty decent value made up for it

Nice place in Loughborough centre they have fun deals on Mondays and Thursdays

I’ve eaten at centro lounge several times in the past. As a coeliac I eat gluten free and they do a reasonable gluten free menu. However I probably won’t be eating here again, and not because of the food. I’d called a week before to ask about booking a table for 4 people. I was told that they don’t take bookings for small groups and only take bookings for larger groups. I explained why we had chosen to come to centro and was reassured that they have a high table turnover so that although they wouldn’t take a booking for us we would still be able to get a table but may have to wait a few minutes. I was happy to go with this and so were my husband and his friend and her wife. On the evening we had planned we met up and headed to Centro. It looked busy but as I approached I noticed multiple empty tables in the window area and once through the door I noticed a couple of larger tables. The larger tables had reserved signs on them but the other smaller tables did not. We were greeted by a a guy at the door and he asked us if he could help. We asked for a table for 4 and then told in a rather blunt and rude way that they had no tables available. It was just after 5pm on a Saturday and we asked if there would be anything available a bit later and said we didn’t mind waiting and just having a drink while we waited. From the response we got this did not seem to be an option the man we spoke to wanted. I tried to explain that I had called earlier in the week and that I had been reassured that if I was happy to wait a table would be available eventually but he would not accept this. I even asked about the empty tables I had seen as we approached centro. He didn’t seem interested at all. So we left and instead we went to Tarboush. Turns out this was an excellent decision as almost all of the food they do is gluten free and I have to say so much tastier and the service friendly helpful and fun. We had an amazing evening but NOT as centro lounge.

We had a couple of really good meals here which were great value. Only a couple of negatives, only one gluten free beer available, which is odd because the gluten free menu is very good. There is so much good GF beer out there, just having Daura Damm is not great. On the second night most of the white wine was out of stock and they had run out of ice cream!

It’s our go to place for brunch, the choice the service is 100# . Last time it slipped a little , not this time , I had the eggs on muffins with smoked salmon and it was tremendous as was the service. My wife loved her brunch too , think she had the bacon sandwich but can’t quite remember. Only reason not a 5 star both dishes not warm enough . Didn’t bother me to be honest. A fantastic well run establishment. I imagine we shall be coming at least twice a month.

The food was really nice but the tapas came after everyone's and was missing one of the 3 tapas, then that tapas came 5 mins later and top it all off the mac and cheese came 10 minutes after I started to eat my tapas and the bannoffee milkshake was very weak
