Clementine in Gloucester

We've eaten here before and it's been good. Not so today. We ordered a sausage brioche bap and a bacon, sausage and egg brioche bap. For the two plus a water it came to £17.50. I'd have been happy with that if the two meals had arrived with some sort of salad or garnish, but no, bap on bare plate. Both brioche baps were quite stale. The service was good but it was pricey for poor food. Not surprisingly it was empty other than us, on a busy Wednesday lunchtime in a prime spot in the centre of Gloucester.

It was probably not their day. The crepes that are one the menu were not available and the personnel was grumpy, the tables were not clean. The food we ordered was okay, but nothing more than that.

Great food (Avocado and eggs on sourdough, ham and cheese crepe) super coffee (flat white), lovely staff, clean cafe and toilet, nice background music. See you again soon.

Biscoff gelato and hot chocolate with almond milk were two delicious vegan options we highly recommend.

really cute and cozy café, the hazelnut hot chocolate tasted amazing ❣️ worth a try!

Very friendly and welcoming with great service. This is now a regular stop when I cycle through Gloucester. Visited today, (12/02/24), as ever, first class service, great coffee and a delicious cake. 11/03/24 - lovely coffee and cake, great value, excellent service and a friendly service.

if you haven't been here, what are you even doing? everytime i visit Gloucester, i will be at this cafe. the food is flawless, i will eat everything even if I'm full because it is so delicious. the drinks are absolutely amazing and delicious and some of the best I've ever had. the staff are really friendly and helpful too and their ice cream milkshakes are absolutely worth getting. i love this place, I've brought so many people here since discovering it.

The premises looked good from the outside and though there were only two Customers in Clementine at the time, the menu looked promising. I ordered my brunch and whilst the woman who took my order wasn't unfriendly per se, she was definitely 'cold'. There was no conversation or chat, no banter, just order, eat and go. The food was fresh and healthy but the sourdough toast was rock hard. The overall food portion was very small, considering the price wasn't. The seating is cold metal with no pad and as such is uncomfortable. The loo was clean and tables tidied quickly. The Clementine, Gloucester lacks warmth (and I don't mean the heating).

Great value and great food. Our group had a breakfast, a bagel and a crepe. All we're very nice.

We stopped here for a coffee and cake whilst strolling through town today and were not disappointed. Very pleasant setting with comfy seats and good coffee. Portuguese tart was delicious. Will definitely try the homemade gelatos next time we come as they looked amazing.

Best mocha/ coffee around!! 10/10

Stopped for a break as it was the only place we could find with Portuguese tarts. These were lovely - £2.25 each. Flat white and cappuccino were very nice. There is some intriguing window type seating that is too wide to lean back on without many cushions. Other seating is practical rather than cosy and comfortable. The table was also sticky to touch. Needed a quick wipe. Service was prompt and polite and the coffee was very nice and well presented.

A pleasant and friendly cafe - lovely food, with good quality indredients skillfully prepared. Good range of options including vegan. Cheerful and calm atmosphere, perfect for our pick-me-up lunch on New Year's Day

I enjoyed the bacon roll and green tea for my midday snack, in this lovely eatery, situated just a few yatds from historic Gloucester Cathedral. Helpful staff, good food, and a peaceful atmosphere, and although only 6 shops away from the big Mac place, it felt that this was 1 million light years away in customer service, quality meals, real crockery and no kids shouting into their mobile. I will be back.

Hit the mark on all counts: gorgeous, flaky and warm Portuguese custard tart and hot delicious coffee.

So friendly and welcoming- wonderful staff. Lovely coffee and drinks. Our dog was welcome too. Toasties to die for. Five stars. We couldn’t ask for more. Thank you so much.

Excellent cafe. Friendly staff, good coffee and food. Nice bright modern interior. Prices very reasonable, the best we've visited in Gloucester

My recent visit to this cafe was all about grabbing a quick coffee. I left with quite a jolt, but not the kind I was expecting. For a tiny takeaway cup of mediocre coffee with oat milk on the side, I was left jaw-dropped by the hefty price of £3.50. The coffee itself was nothing to write home about, more like your average "instant burger-van coffee when there's no alternative" sort of flavour. It left me feeling disappointed and underwhelmed, with a lingering sense of having paid way too much. To make matters worse, both my wife and daughter decided to try the place independently on the same morning, and they too were equally unimpressed. With a total spend of £10 for three underwhelming coffees, it left a bad taste in our mouths three times over. Regrettably, this cafe won't see any more of our visits.

Nic location. So-so food. Disappointing 50p surcharge for sofa or oat milk instead of cow milk in drinks, so if you have dairy allergy, are concerned about environmental impact of dairy or just your own good health then avoid. This is 2023 and responsible choices are important without being penalised. Very questionable policy - try harder.

Lovely little cafe in great location with friendly chatty staff. Bacon and brie toastie was amazing with the chilli jam and the lemon and raspberry gelato was just delicious and refreshing in the hot sunshine. Will definitely visit again!

Cycle friendly and freshly baked pastel de nata on site worth stopping for

Hat to wait a while cause the staff were serving someone else, ordered a mocha not very hot but still nice ,definitely worth another visit, outside seating aswell so if a nice day worth a visit, with the cathedral round the corner.

One of the worst cafe I have ever visited. Unhappy staff, making extremely loud noise with the coffee machine every cup of coffee she made. Sprayed sterilizer into the air right next to your coffee. Dirty chairs and dirty tables. Thank you. I would rather go to the fast food chain starting with M next door.

Excellent coffee and a lovely oatmeal cookie Absolutely the best coffee I’ve had in a cafe in a long time!

Un café ou le chai latte est excellent, le brownie à tomber et les options sans gluten possibles! Après la visite de la cathédrale, nous nous y sommes arrêtés pour un petit déjeuner tardif et avons réellement apprécié le lieu, l ambiance, le staff et évidemment les plats!

If you’re thinking of going my advice is don’t. Surly staff, slow service, bland food & lack of choice as items listed not available. If you want to pay near £9 for a crepe that comes out of the freezer pre packed go right ahead but we’ll be going elsewhere in future and we have lunches work related and personally frequently so your loss.

Stopped in here with my husband and dog for breakfast before exploring Gloucester. Wonderful food, speedy service and lovely polite staff. And very dog friendly!

Nettes kleines Kaffee für einen kleinen Snack Sauber+Gemütlich+Schmackhaft

10 for breakfast Sunday morning. Told to sit at the prepared table upstairs . We waited to be served and waited & waited eventually we ventured downstairs to remind both of the " I don't want to be here this early on a Sunday morning " servers . We were told the iPad order device fixed to the counter . So in a stiff upper lip attitude we went " old skool" with pen and paper Simples !!!!. After collating our order back down stairs we went . Only to be told no crepe mix ,no spinach and other non available items . Order amended we waited then 3 breakfasts arrived followed by 8 mins later 2 more then 7 mins later the rest . All served with the most sullen face I have seen in a long time . That lost a tenner and found a pound look. At no time were we asked if we wanted refills a lost £40 but apparently no bothered . On a good note excellent poached eggs and the carnivore full breakfast had superb sausage ,bacon poor though . Bill was £115 No tip left sorry but service was sullen and non caring . We will return as we always do just to give the place the benefit of the doubt However at the time of this visit would not choose this establishment if I had come to visit the Cathedral. Thanks for reading and keeping us high on the top reviewers list .Another review shortly

I visited Clementines a few days ago on a trip to Gloucester. It's in a great central location overlooking the Town Hall and close to the cathedral. The service was very friendly and quick. Best of all was the Eggs Florentine, the eggs were really good quality with orange yokes. Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend.

We had a lovely stop here before visiting the cathedral. Service was professional and engaging. There were some great cakes on offer and prices were good. The tables were nicely spaced so we didn’t feel crowded and it’s a fantastic location.

Disappointing. Poor, service - not necessarily unfriendly, but definitely ' cold '. Having been to a different cleaner, cheaper and friendlier coffee shop in the morning, I would not rush back to Clementine.

Not well run unfortunately. Cold food, limited menu. Rectified mistakes but lots of things missing (like cutlery). Polite staff just a bit of a shambles. Food okay, not great coffee

Didn't try any food, but the coffee was top notch. Fast friendly service as well.

Ordered a Big Bap,sausage, bacon and fried egg, and I had a white americano coffee, overal the food was very nice, specially the sausages, nice atmosphere and staff were very good.

Lovely cafe in Gloucester. Near the Cathedral n shops. Will definitely pop in again. Xx.

Great oatmilk flat white, friendly staff and gorgeous eggs royal-it was great to still be able to order brunch food at lunchtime. Sat in the window and it was lovely and calm.

Went with my grandson today and we had the toasted sandwiches they were amazing and we will definitely go again.

Poor member of staff left on her own to take orders, make drinks and clear tables. Badly run. Not the first time we've seen this here and not the first time we have had a huge wait to be served while the poor member of staff has to do all of the jobs on their own. Probably our last visit for a good while. When you do get a drink they are good and well made, a credit to the server given all of the tasks they need to run on their own.

Somewhat "spartan" as far as decor is concerned, otherwise this is a little gem. Open till late in the afternoon on a Sunday, it was warm and welcoming - the cake and hot chocolate was excellent.

An unplanned visit. Was really impressed with how quickly the food came and how it tasted- poached eggs were cooked to perfection. Will certainly return.

Can't get over how good the eggs were. Why have I not had brunch here before? Cracking!

Been here three times in the past month or so, always had really nice coffee, especially the hazelnut latte, which I usually don't like from other places. Spent most of the day studying here, the top floor was a lovely, sunlit, calm environment. I had the vegetarian breakfast at lunchtime which was really stunning, especially the perfect eggs and the crunchy toast. Staff are friendly, and did the most beautiful latte art on my second latte. Absolutely the best café in Gloucester, especially as the lattes are more reasonably priced than most places, without being in any way small.

Day visit to Gloucester and spotted the outside seating area in the morning sunshine. Service was attentive, breakfast was hot with good quality ingredients. Crepes were tasty too. Perfect!

Clean, but rather barren cafe (not particularly comfortable). Pleasant, friendly service and nice hot drinks, but sadly the worst slice of cake of 2022 for me. Bone dry, flavourless and undercooked. Much better cafés nearby.

Visited mid morning on a Saturday, but unfortunately they had no croissants available. We had a couple of slices of cake instead. But both were dried out. They had probably been on display all week. Uncomfortable metal seats. Probably better places to go in Gloucester.

Love hazelnut latte and first mince pie of the year ..loverleee 😋

Not impressed really rough around the edges, didn’t feel clean or even look it and the furniture was uncomfortable! Although the lady serving us was friendly and under pressure did a brilliant job as had no staff. Won’t be heading back anytime soon.

Ir a nice place to get food and a coffee or tea or hotcloc

Very nice staff, great tea and cake!

Usually busy, and the staff are always rushing around. Food is OK, service suffers due to lack of staff / organisation. Hand central location.

Called in this cafe for a hot choc and a latte the drinks are done by a machine 45mins waiting and she brings hot choc takes it to wrong table then brings it to our table the 5 mins later comes with a latte both drinks where cold wouldn’t use this cafe again service is the worst I have ever come across

Nice and clean, bit lacking in customer service and customers!! Efficient chef and food nicely display. Was disappointed in cake selection as this was one of the advertised items.

Menu looked lovely, as did the food, sadly that's all I can tell you. Our order never arrived. The chap who had the charisma of a cardboard box barely blinked as he mumbled about not getting the order whilst refunding our money. People next to us cleared their own table so that they could sit down and after 3 trips up to the counter with plates, said chap finally stopped arranging the saucers on the trays to be just the right distance and went to the table to take the last of the stuff. Girl serving was lovely and rushed off her feet and I felt sorry for her, we watched 3 customers walk out as fed up of waiting. It was a sunny Saturday so perhaps more staff may have helped? She looked horrified when our neighbours order came in but still not ours. So, after 50 minutes waiting we gave up and got a refund but, no customer service skills to apologise profusely or refund the coffee as well as a gesture of good will. A real shame as the food looked good. More training needed I think

Popped in whilst visiting Gloucester, had a latte and blueberry loaf cake. Nice friendly staff doing a great job.

Nice place, very good coffee. Had croissant which I liked and savoury crepe with cheese, tomatoes and basil- delicious.

Handy spot for a great coffee and tasty bite to eat. Lovely friendly and attentive staff, nothing is too much trouble

Top quality ingredients, great menu selections and a cute friendly space. Let down by lack of staff and having run out of some key menu items. BUT overall a great little place.

Nice place crepes were nice, menu not that big

Lovely friendly staff. Amazing food

Good coffee and scone. Friendly waitress

Good coffee, but our party had mixed opinions on the cakes - some good, some not quite so good.. The ice cream, however, was much liked. A relaxed and friendly place.

Very unorganised and food was a let down, won’t be coming back to the gloucester cafe.

Not very friendly staff and poor customer service as they started closing up and banging doors at 4pm on a Saturday. Not sure how a food retail outlet can close so early and afford to alienate its customers.

Drinks ok, but cake dry and unpalatable. Arrived and ordered tea and cakes at 3.40pm. Staff closed early at 4pm instead of the advertised 5pm and were closing up around us and rude.

Really patient friendly staff with a cheery welcome and smiling face steaming hot coffee in very pleasant surroundings.

Really lovely cafe, staff welcoming and friendly and the Portuguese tart was delicious

Very friendly staff plus good food, drinks and milkshakes.

I came in to the café as it seemed cosy and inviting. Love the little lights down stairs. I ordered a tea and some food. I can be a little picky but when I asked the young man to make my food the way I...

A victim of lockdown? No longer our very favourite cafe. The quality of food and service are unrecognisable compared to pre-covid days. Barely cooked, fatty bacon. Over cooked eggs, even the coffee isn't as good. No idea if same owners but I fear this once...

Decent food, had milkshake and crepe, unfortunately the milkshake was a little pricey hence the drop in stars. Service and ambience was lovely though

The place is cold, the coffee just warm the young guy behind the bar completely disinterested - I tried to converse but more interested in his phone. I was the only person in at the time so everything more noticeable - won’t rush back

Nice atmosphere and vibe, great for people watching, Nice coffee with some lovely art on it too. Will be be soon definitely.

A small group of us had coffee and cake here after a walking tour of the city centre. The café is nicely placed on a corner near the Cathedral. The coffee and cakes were pretty good. The service could have been a bit more cheerful....

Fantastic service and great food. Highly recommended

Popped in to escape the shoppers. I had a chocolate brownie which was excellent. Nice friendly service and a warm welcome. I will certainly be back.

A great place to have a quick snack and watch the world go by. Service is friendly but can sometimes be a little slow. The coffee is great and the homemade gelato is delicious (they have different flavours every week). Try and get a seat...

The staff were very friendly and the coffee was amazing and a perfect temperature.

Called in for a cup of tea on a damp Sunday. We were the only customers, which should have rung alarm bells. We felt as if we were interupting the waitresses, they were very casually dressed, and their whole attutude was that the place would...

Very tasty lemon crepe, with sparkling lemon drink.

Nice coffee, friendly staff. A good location to sit and watch the world go by. But the outside seats are not very comfortable.

Coffee very nice needs more staff when busy

It was a very hot day and I needed lunch. I was in Lower Westgate Street when I saw a few tables in the shade outside of a rather interesting cafe. The menu was far from the usual cafe offerings. I ordered a ham and...

The food I ordered was actually rather nice but the service was awful. Was particularly sad to see the person behind the counter mocking the accents of two perfectly nice ladies at the entrance who were looking at the menu. Nobody wants to purchase food...

I never leave bad reviews, I am front of house myself at a restuarant in town so I know how important both reviews and customer service are. I would not have left this review had the young lady who served us bothered to apologise, or...

Ok but not a great choice of food as a lot not available even though we went earlier in a morning

Friendly, lovely coffee and really relaxing atmosphere 🙏❤️

Did not have a fantastic experience at Clementine, a group of 5 of us arrived and were impressed with the decor… that was the best part. Service was moderately friendly, seemed disinterested with customers in general. The food was ok, nothing fancy, something you’d expect...

Very nice cafe, good coffee, friendly staff and excellent gelato.

The only good thing was the music. Walked into the place. Tables was not clear. Sat at a table we had to wipe the crumbs away ourselves. Sat down for 5 minutes. Staff member did not acknowledge our presents, even when walking past us to clear a table. We had to ask the person working there if you come to the table or is it counter service. The roll ordered didn't have any butter or spread. Lightly toasting the bun only made it dry. Customers came in and they wasn't acknowledged either even when asking a question. They walked out so you lost a sale. Coffee was fine and cake was fine. Only one staff member was working at the time 28/05/2021 early afternoon about 2pm. Preparing, washing and coffee area is in a bad location for one staff member to pay attention to new customers walking into the establishment. We will not be back.

Delicious coffee. Great selection of hot drinks and pastries. I went for a dirty chai latte with a Portuguese delicacy.

Good quality coffee and food. Bacon sandwich was, well, basic - on white sliced bread for £4.50. Did give famalam a good giggle all afternoon.

Lovely Tea rooms . Our favourite in Gloucester. Excellent cakes and lite meals. More please .

Great service clean and welcoming, food was lovely as well.

Looking for a light lunch, we chanced on this restaurant. How refreshing to find a different menu of lighter bites. The spiced hot apple drink is fantastic on a chilly day. The menu features waffles and pancakes, both sweet and savoury and a large choice...

Great service from a very pleasant server, a lovely cappuccino - two, actually - and a nicely cooked bacon sandwich. Well recommended for a quick coffee break or breakfast/lunch (I've been here before).

Wow, where do i even begin. I had the most amazing poached eggs on sourdough, made with Cacklebean Eggs which were very tasty. The cafe is very reasonable priced as all produce is home made so worth the price, the coffee is also the best...

Popped in for poached eggs on sourdough and wow the eggs are gorgeous. Was tempted by the gelato and enjoyed a passion fruit yoghurt tub which is actually made in the cafe. Have already booked to return with my family
