Cobrizo Lounge in West Berkshire

£10.25 for 3 bites of breakfast… usually would expect a brunch menu to be fairly ‘healthy’ on portions. Nice vibes in here but seriously overpriced for what they are serving. It’s not even like these items are expensive to source etc.

Food was mediocre, cocktails were not good at all.

Food is ok. As are drinks. Only real negative is the wait time. Food came after 25 minutes... And then somehow the coffee arrived after.. So it took 30 minutes to make 2 coffees. This however doesn't seem limited to cobrizo.. Other "lounges" I've been to suffer the exact same issues

We came here for breakfast early November, our first visit to this particular he's venue, we've since been back for lunch because our first visit was so good! Service is wonderful, everyone is friendly, enquiries made about allergies and dietary requirements. App to order/pay is so simple to use but you're always invited to pay at the till if you'd prefer. Food quality is fab, portions are generous and there's lots for the kids to do. Brilliant restaurant and we'd will definitely be back.

Our first time visiting this lounges as we've only been living in Newbury for a year. And I honestly wish we'd come sooner. I didn't catch the name of the lady serving us (dark hair, on shift morning of November 8th) but she was friendly, welcoming and definitely went the extra mile to be a good host. We will absolutely return. Great service. Lovely food and a great atmosphere. Brilliant.

Reviewing one of multiple visits to Cobrizo Lounge. Decided on some last-minute brunch on a Sunday morning. As usual, staff were friendly and attentive and had absolutely no issues in finding us a table and accommodating our young son too. Food options are broad and managed relatively quickly given how busy the place was. The essence of the venue is in its relaxed environment - somewhere you can pitch up at any time, with dogs, kids or wider family and more often than not, get a table and service with relative ease and no expectation of getting you in and out in record time. For those who have complained about service times - I'd argue that if you want a 30-minute in and out experience, this isn't the place to go. However, if you're looking for a calm environment with polite and inclusive staff and a variety of choices, Cobrizo is a brilliant place to head in Newbury!

Our food took over 45 mins to come out. Staff were very apologetic and gave us some free drinks when we chased our food but still, a very long time to wait for a meal that doesn't need to be cooked. The Miami breakfast was nice but the smashed avocado was a really measley small serving, and very light on the avocado. Have visited this chain before and had a better experience, maybe we caught them on a bad day.

Sadly they don't had the 2 mains wanted! The other options were very good as well!

Ordered 5 vegan all day brunch /breakfasts ...all were cold or tepid. Won't be coming back

Great tasting food! The All Day Breakfast was great and a reasonable price. Many different choices on the menu and do certain drink and food offers on different days of the week. Wish I went here sooner and will definitely visit again.

Came in with 3 other couples last nite ,we were seated near the door which was kept open for some reason? It’s October !!!!! Each couple ordered for each other on the app, 1 couple were served their food pretty fast,the 2 nd couple got theirs 20 mins later, We asked for the door to be closed which thankfully staff closed ,( did they need to be asked ?) We then noticed the AC was still blowing cold air out !!! My partner kept her coat on as did other couples near the window So now it’s 1 hour since us and the other couple ordered their food and still nothing coming out After asking what the hold up was we eventually got the food out My partners veggie flatbread was lukewarm plus the fries too My burrito was super hot but again the fries were not Very poor in my opinion,the basics of keeping a restaurant warm,lack of communication with guests about the food are things you can easily fix We all agreed we wouldn’t be coming back here which is a shame as too many businesses fold in Newbury high street,

Consistently good food and service every time I've been there.

We had lunch here with some friends recently we ordered on the QR Code within minutes of each other the drinks came together but unfortunately the meals were miles apart. They had finished their food before ours had even arrived. It was a very unpleasant experience. Also the flatbread and chicken was virtually inedible as it was just about tepid. Totally unappealing. We would not recommend or return.

Very good vegan menu, much to my mate's delight.

Love this bar, be it for a cooked breakfast in the morning or a quiet drink with friends. Good comprehensive menu, and a relaxed atmosphere in which to enjoy your meal. I had the Beef Brisket Chilli, which tasted excellent, accompanied by a pint of IPA. I can recommend you come in yourself and make up your own mind.

Though the Cobrizo Lounge is very pleasant and the staff are good, we don't go often as there is little ale choice, except Bristol Milk Stout and they are very expensive. Our main reason for visiting is that the Lounge group open early.

We had tapas for 3, we ordered 10 plates and 2 more of pita bread came as well for dipping in a couple of the tapas. Very good and varied tapas which we all shared and enjoyed between us. Very good value for money at a time when going out can cost £40+ per person.

We met family for brunch, and the food was absolutely delicious, so would definitely recommend a visit here

Relaxing and chilled atmosphere could not fault the staff and the service was brilliant the food was delicious very good value for what you get definitely will be returning

Had been meaning to go in and try their large breakfast for a while, have to say I wasn't disappointed, it's one of the best breakfasts I've had in a while

Staff here are really kind, coffee was great. Didn't eat here.

Came by recommendation, glad we did!Popped in with family for late lunch, a buzzing atmosphere, fantastic service from the manager, who was very friendly and accomodating,great vegan options, doggie treats and water bowl was a lovely touch for our poochie poo! quick service and lovely tasty food, when in the area again, we will be back

Very easy. Comfortable and convenient

Very disappointed here - very dry garlic bread. No garlic butter at all. I expected it to be lot better.

Lovely venue for some food, staff were really welcoming and it had a very friendly atmosphere. My husband has a burger whenever we eat out and he said it was the best he’s had in a long time! Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Newbury.

Dropped in as we were passing and wanted a late lunch. We were very pleasantly surprised at how good the food was! Service was friendly, relaxed and efficient. The food was super fresh, super tasty and excellent value. We wouldn't hesitate to go back here again.

Extremely welcoming, the best family restaurant in Newbury! They even provide water for dogs at your table! Food is excellent and so is the service!

Popped in for a light lunch, fish finger sandwich, chicken flat bread and childrens pizza. Great that they have fresh water, help yourself and they will provide ice if you ask. Great for when the weather is hot. Food was,quick, hot and lovely. I would recommend the fish finger sandwich if you are hungry, they are very generous. The chicken flat bread was lovely and piled high with chicken, salad & sauces. Will certainly be back. Great staff and service.

Fantastic food (especially Vegan). Fantastic decor and ambience. Fantastic people. The Lounges are our go to place to eat.

We had such great service a previous day for snacks we returned for meals. We were not disappointed! Dog friendly, staff provided water and treats. Lots of different seating choices, sofas, chairs or the usual dining tables/chairs. A downstairs accessible loo, others upstairs. Good choices on menu for vegetarians, and meat eaters. Our mezze salads, big breakfast (served all day), and eggs royale were perfect. Service took about 15 mins but were warned it would. Service was very friendly, efficient and the wait staff were knowledgeable. You can order at your table if you gave a smart phone, or at the bar. Highly recommended for a relaxing, tasty, and value for money meal. Colouring for kids, games and books, and newspapers for adults. 10/10!

Not sure why it takes 25 mins to serve tasteless watery soup and tasteless ciabatta roll, the coffee was ok.

40mins in with 2 children under 5 and no drinks. we were told about the delay with the food and we were willing to wait but we had finished our food before the drinks came out. then a pot of tea was brought out (that i only ordered because of the food wait) WITH NO MILK. I know it’s busy but this is not acceptable. then then the cold drinks came after 50mins still without milk. happy to wait for food but not 50 mins for drinks. i would have refused to pay but you charge up front with the audacity to ask for a tip 😂😂😂 food was nice wait was fine - drinks not coming bad form

We ordered our breakfasts at 10.30am, it took about 20 minutes for us to get our drinks and we are currently still waiting for our breakfast to arrive over an hour later. We got a refund and left.

Staff friendly and kind, but when chief cooked the food, our foods stayed 15mins in hot place and staff didn t bring to our table, I don’t know why. Everything was cold when they came to our table. And also price are too high for that much portion of food, we went to Mc donald’s after, and other thing, don’t seat near to kitchen, because you can see the inside the kitchen from little window. And you can see the chief when he is lick his finger and touching your plates. It was discusting. I will not pass even front of this place if it possible.

Absolutely wonderful restaurant with a relaxed environment to have a lovely drink and filling meal. I ordered the elderflower and lemon cocktail, and a lounge burger with sweet potato fries. Brunch is served all day. My husband ordered the lounge breakfast along with garlic fries and onion rings. Our son ordered pancakes, but he stole half my burger. We are definitely coming back!

Always a good time at Cobrizo, great food, nice atmosphere and always visit when I visit Newbury

Went here with a friend for a birthday lunch and ordered at the table from the app - the tip is requested upfront prior to any service , but there is an option to decline this . Drinks arrived very quickly but the food took a long time to arrive and we had to get a second round before any food was on the table. When the food - avacado on toast with a poached egg and beetroot and feta flatbread finally arrived it was luke warm with semi frozen beetroot and watery feta and a hard boiled egg with the avacado toast - they didn't seem that busy . Try Macdonalds opposite for a quicker service cheaper and better food .

Had an amazing gluten free chicken burger in really nice bun with chips and coleslaw. I have to say the staff were really very understanding and no question or concern was too much. I really appreciate their willingness to answer any question. Service food drinks ambience can’t complain. They even brought a new mayo unopened so no risk of contamination. Thank you!!!

As good as any Lounge. Friendly staff and good service. A bit quiet on a Bank Holiday Monday

Mediocre temperature food. Table clearing is non existent. Wouldn’t come back!

Another great Lounge restaurant in the collection (our first was in Exeter then Wells then Paignton). It was great to find they had a place closer to home for us! We are big fans of their Tapas. (On holidays, we really enjoyed their cocktails too). The decor is fairly similar across the range and always brings a smile, like the hanging lamps at Newbury. The giant genie was funky! Lots of oil paintings adorn the walls. Super service both in terms of friendliness and speed. Recommended.

A bit chaotic. Good quick lunch though

My favourite Gluten Free Restaurant in Newbury! Service is brilliant and the menu is huge, to the point I struggle to choose what to get as I don't normally have ALL the options

Often like to go to Cobrizo in the centre of Newbury town for drinks and some food. The staff members are always available and friendly. You can order via a QR code for ease too. Very dog friendly place, was given treats and water. Good for group gathering too. Recommend the Cherry and Vanilla Martini for any visits.

I had lunch here with a friend. We both had burgers, which were delicious. I like the vegan menu as it's got a good variety of dishes. The service was prompt & the staff friendly.

Very lovely restaurant! Alex was lovely very attentive and made sure everything was great :)

Love the food and interior! It's my go to place.

Delicious food and drinks. Lovely clean dining are. Attentive staff. Reasonable prices. Overall a good experience!

My top coffee restaurant choice in Newbury. Atmosphere, food, cleanliness all ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Please keep it up 😃

On a coach tour to Highclere Castle and spent two hours in Newbury awaiting our time slot. So popped into Cobrizo Lounge for lunch.

Great service, fabulous amount of choices for gluten free options and the best burger I’ve had since being celiac. Highly recommended.

Normally lounges are fantastic for gluten free! And entire menu available, although a bit more expensive to the regular menu. Food was delicious and quite good value, although on the smaller side helping wise. Food was very quick to come out and was delicious. Would recommend the tapas and also the fresh orange juice. However, have visited again with friends and made sure to order gluten free again. This time my friends food were brought out fairly quickly and the restaurant was quite empty. 20 minutes passed and my food had still not come out so at this point my friends were eating theirs so it wouldn’t go cold. Eventually I asked where it was, and the waiter chased it up for me. It was eventually brought out and didn’t have the regular gluten free/allergy flags on it (I had ordered at the bar as if it’s coeliac you can’t order online). Very suspicious of how good the burger bun looked, we double checked with the waiter. He said it was gluten free but I asked him to double check with the chef as it really didn’t look like it. He checked and came back very apologetic and said it was in fact not gluten free so took it away. Luckily I didn’t eat any or would have had a reaction. By this point my friends had finished, the second burger came out and was again not gluten free! I asked a different waitress and she confirmed it wasn’t gluten free again! This happened a further time and at this point I was worried they’d just swapped the burger to the gluten free bun which is very bad cross contamination. Eventually it was remade and I could finally eat my dinner, although I was very worried about my safety at this point. I wasn’t offered any compensation or refund regarding the situation and now I’m worried about going back as normally it’s so good.

Me and my partner come here for date nights and the food never fails to amaze us! The drinks, atmosphere, food and the staff are all amazing and definitely 10/10! 🌟

Excellent venue, the food here is delicious, have eaten here several times. Lovely decor, wonderful staff, great atmosphere.

The Loungers never disappoints! Popped in for lunch and it was fresh and delicious. I had the Gluten Free Buddha Bowl.

Great place with lovely & friendly team - will definately go again.

Nice place to eat the lounges are always good

My food, fried chicken was dry and over cooked. Our empty plates were left on the table dispite staff coming to refill drinks and bring pudding. We were left to stack our own plates to make room for puddings There was on 2 two of the mains left to order from although is was only 5:00pm My granddaughter has had a severe reaction from your gluten free menu dispite having ordered from the gluten free menu. This means something she was served contained gluten. Not cross contamination but served as gluten free option when is clearly was not I will not be using the restaurant again

Really good blueberry pancakes, and great staff

As always with the lounge chain, there is a huge selection of food for gluten free diets. Food was good, and the portion sizes too were ample. Huge seating area upstairs, which was quiet when I visited (mid week, in the evening). Good location to also visit to do some work quietly without interruption.

I've been twice in the past month, once for a weekday lunch and a second time for dinner. The decor is delightful, from the lampshades to the huge display of art. The menu and ordering can be done by the qr code method meaning you don't wait to be attended or for your bill. But having said that, the staff were very attentive and helpful. Food on both visits was delicious. Prices weren't high, compared to other similar high street restaurants. Recommend the steak which has parmesan rocket salad on the side that is unusual and was a perfect accompaniment. We will be returning

Amazing! We only came here because our vet is close and I typed ‘dog friendly restaurant’ into google. The staff were so friendly and nice, gave our dog a water bowl and made us feel very welcome. The food was really tasty and the cocktails were great too (we did the two for one and you can have two of any cocktail on the menu). The decor is really unique and creates a very pleasant vibe. Will definitely be coming back here whenever we have the chance!

Had a poor experience with both food and service here. Emailed to inform them and have been ignored.

The avocado 🥑 on toast = bangin'

Really polite and friendly staff, a relaxed atmosphere, prompt service and the food was amazing!!!! I definitely advise trying the beef brisket, OMG!!!!! Looking forward to my next visit :)

Really family friendly, we have always enjoyed the service and food and its largely due to how relaxed they are around families. Little touches like toys they can help themselves too, plastic cutlery in various colours they can choose from. We haven't ever had a bad meal, food has always been good and I think as our little one is so happy with her food and toys we always seem to get to enjoy our meal as she is not bored or frustrated like she can get in other places. Overall we just always seem to get to enjoy eating out here so it's become a favourite of ours.

Great place for a decent lunch. Dog friendly too.

Great place for lunch, quirky surroundings and attentive service. I've never used this cafe chain before but will look out for them next time.

Staff amazing & couldn't do enough when I dropped half my lunch on the floor! They brought a replacement! Soup wasn't the best and the staff were deeply apologetic, brought a free pannini and gave us a refund too!

Good food and pleasant service and all priced quite reasonably. The noise level is a little noticeable and a little dark, but the style is unique and has a lot of character

Breakfast was good, had fresh orange juice which was lovely. A bit expensive but that's just the high street tax. The extra bonus was that they let dogs in.

The QR code wasnt working so had to move where I wanted to sit as no one was coming to that area (upstairs). However, the staff downstairs where very nice and quick to help me. The food was decent for the price.

Great food, excellent service lovely atmosphere and dog friendly. 🍲 🙂 🐶

I love this place and the staff (for the most part) However, I came in with my daughters on a Saturday, and as we sat down, my youngest began behaving stressed. The atmosphere was tense, and it transpired that the young blond teen behind the counter was glaring at us, walking past, giving us the stink eye the whole time we were there. My youngest was so uncomfortable after the young set our drinks order down without a smile or word, despite us thanking her and going back to glaring at us and muttering to other servers. We ordered food brought to us by a lovely young man and ate before leaving because the feeling of getting glared at was too much. I wanted to say something, but my daughter pleaded with me to just leave. It transpired. This was one of a gang of girls that used to pick on her at school and was also the girl that had confronted me in the street a while back, but I didn't recognise her. Because she works weekends, we go elsewhere because we do not deserve that treatment. We do, however, visit during the week where the service is always great.

Best chilli I’ve ever had served by lovely friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere and made to feel very welcome as a lone male traveller. Will definitely eat here again if passing through in the future

Food really tasty, dog friendly, staff friendly as well. Was busy with great atmosphere. Definitely going again

My mum and I love it here! The team are always SO lovely and the food is great value for money!

A great range of food allergy options - I went here specifically because one of the group needed gluten free - and they said it was the most extensive GF menu they'd ever seen. Food was good, too. Strangely, any allergy food had to be ordered at the bar, whereas everything else could be ordered from the table. Very odd. Friendly staff and food/drinks arrived quickly. Toilets were clean and tidy.

Went here recently with friends,we weren’t expecting great things as you order your food at the bar and it was busy but when the food came it was very good and we all enjoyed our meals. There is no service so it is a case if you need a drink halfway through your meal you have to go to the bar but the wait was quite short so it wasn’t an issue. I would definitely return.

No reservations unless a group of six+.

Lovely food , nicely decorated and busy but pleasant.

Went with a party of 9. Fabulous evening. First time there. Would definitely go again. Relaxed atmosphere. Food was a change from the usual restaurant meals

The app you use to order is not user friendly and frustrating. Other than that good food and drinks with the family.

Nice cozy feel and good food and friendly staff.

Lovely Lounge. Bar manager was incredibly welcoming and attentive which was great. It was fairly quiet but there was a nice atmosphere to the place. Will definitely come back again soon. Thank you.

We've now been for breakfasts, lunches and dinners and it's been great for all three. It's baby/child friendly, and I love that there are toys and games for little ones. We always feel welcome and the food is great - a really good number of options on the vegan menu.

So I go there on average two to three times a month. On the last three visits the wait for food was more than forty minutes. Today part of the restaurant was closed so seating was scarce. I'm done with it, not going back.

Went for a quick lunch, was asked to find a table and order online. Then started the 35 min wait for an extremely plain and mediocre at best food. Don't bother with this place. Dishes are over priced, service non existent and food not worth mentioning.

I always feel comfortable dining here, the atmosphere is great and I just love the decor. Food is always good and great value for money, the staff are always polite, friendly and helpful. I come here regularly.

Terrific staff, always very keen to help answer any questions. Great selection of Plant based and gluten free menu options. Highly recommended.

Great menu choice. Miami brunch omg get in my tummy

10.30 Sat morning really busy told a 45 min wait for food so left! staff issues apparently " that's the hospitality trade!" Not the first time we have attempted to eat there and be told of the wait so we won't try again ! A year has gone by and we tried again told they were not even taking tables ! So there has been a change but unfortunately for the worst ! I give up now

Had a lovely family dinner at Cobrizo Lounge with the wife, two kids, brother and sister-in-law and their dog. Have eaten here before and wouldn't hesitate to come back. As my Bro and SiL are both vegans it can sometimes be a struggle to find somewhere that offers a decent range of options and in this regard CL excels as it offers a very comprehensive Vegan (as well as Gluten-free) menu. All the dishes served were really tasty and the staff welcoming and attentive without being overbearing. The ambience is wonderful as well with an eclectic range of furnishings and decor and a good range of games and activities to keep the kids (& adults) amused. A great place that offers great food and service at reasonable prices and it's reassuring to see it well supported by customers. Hopefully it will stay open for a long time as I really want to go back.

Amazing place Amazing staff especially the older guy there very helpful and had a good laugh with a few jokes and adored my dog ...dog friendly place as well cakes Amazing as was the coffee. Even went back 1hr later for lunch ....deserved more stars than what I can put on here

We called in to Newbury (our first visit) on the way to Wales as my wife wanted to visit a particular shop, so why we were there we decided to find somewhere for lunch so had no preconceived idea of where to go, we chose Cabrizo Lounge based primarily on kerb appeal and then the menu as we had 2 people in our group who had dietary needs. What a great choice, the staff were really friendly and helpful, the atmosphere was great and the food we had was amazing. We come from Kent, so it's not on our doorstep, but we will definitely be making a trip to Newbury in the near future and pop in to Cobrizo Lounge for lunch while we're there!

Lovely place. A bit dark for my friend who is partially sighted, but we sat by the window so it wasn't too bad. The waitress was lovely and funny! Food was good and a reasonable price.

Food came out stone cold, sent it back, fresh food returned nice and warm, waitress said I'll bring you some plates, no plates after five minutes, asked another waitress for plates, she apologised and bought some, overall tho disappointed

Cosy with good service. Nice food ideas but not executed overly well e.g. watery poached eggs and tough, over cooked chorizo.

Visited with a friend on a Tuesday in Oct. It was a little busy, but we were promptly greeted at the door and the waitress was welcoming and friendly. She let us know there was a 25min wait on food, which we were fine with - to be honest we didn’t notice the food taking that long to come out. Both ordered mains and a pudding using the app, along with drinks. All arrived promptly. Food was great and good sized portions. The two people serving us that evening checked in to make sure we were ok and were friendly and helpful. Would happily come here again and recommend to others.

Very nice restaurant with a wide range of selection on Main Street
