Fingerprints in Leicester

Best breakfast in Leicester. Always a good place to read and work. Student approved.

Nipped in just for a drink to take some meds for a raging migraine, decided to have a croissant and it is honestly THE best croissant I’ve ever had! Staff lovely, great friendly atmosphere, just a great place. X

I recommend! I will definitely come back again

Fantastic vegan breakfast. I’ll be coming again!

Amazing experience staff were accommodating.

That is nice very place although I never been but some others do like to come at here which is nice. Which I consider trying one day I believe.

Lovely cáfe with lots of amazing service and quick delivery times for food, if your ever around the area this is the main place you need to try.

Best experience loved every bit I will 100% be going back. The staff are so welcoming!

I recommend visiting this cafe, everything is at the highest level, fast, tasty and high-quality, the staff is great. You must visit this cafe.

Wow what an amazing cafe food was amazing

Nice place to enjoy your breakfast….

Fantastic service and food also great atmosphere

It was a very nice place ,good service and beautiful atmosphere

The food and services are soo amazing

A simple brunch costs around £20. The space in the store is not large, but the circulation is clear. The small drawback is that the front and rear tables are a bit crowded. I saw customers bringing dogs in. It must be a pet-friendly store👍 The food is simple but delicious. It also comes with pepper and the coffee is quite large. It is a small shop with quality. Friendly reminder: Please eat eggs Benedict with a knife and fork! (Only food with bread on the top and bottom can be taken with your hands!)

This is a great cafe for food and drinks. Has a very good reputation and is very busy. It is situated on the queen's Road which is very popular. This area has a good selection of small independent shops and is worth visiting. Cafe itself also has some outside seating. Staff are friendly and helpful. Spotlessly clean. Well worth checking out if you are in this area.

A nice friendly place to have a bit to eat 😋

Really lovely place in the heart of Clarendon. With beautiful views of a rather indelible street in Leicester. Warm and friendly staff with a great array of quality food and drinks.

Gorgeous little place, spotlessly clean, friendly staff and a delicious menu.....not over the top expensive, and the coffee is good quality! Loved it@

Great coffee, just a bit slow to get it to us.

I came here for the first time in a long time and I wasn't dissapointed! I went for a vege full english to mix it up and it was amazing. I also had a berry smoothie which hit the spot.

Not impressed. After a 40 minute wait and customers who had ordered later being served, the wrong order was brought. I suppose I should be grateful for the lukewarm coffee that arrived after 10 minutes. I was then told there would be at least a further half hour wait for my correct order, which had clearly been forgotten. Not impressed that the serving staff were happy to refund the breakfast but not the coffee. I appreciate midday on a Sunday is a busy time, it might be an idea to warn customers if there is going to be a lengthy delay. Clearly you don’t want my custom, fortunately there are plenty of alternatives to choose from on Queens Road.

Absolutely beautiful food and lovely staff!! Definitely will be going again

Not impressed. After a 40 minute wait and customers who arrived later being served, the wrong order was brought, a tuna sandwich not the pancakes I was expecting. Maybe I should be grateful for the coffee I was served after 10 minutes but it was lukewarm. Clearly my order had been forgotten but I was then told there would be at least a further half hour wait for my order, no attempt to treat me as a priority, I went to the back of the queue! Not impressed that the serving staff were only happy to refund the breakfast that never arrived but not the coffee. The staff probably weren’t very experienced and late morning on a Sunday is a busy time, It might be an idea to warn customers if there is going to be a lengthy delay and when you mess up try to placate your customer. Clearly you don’t want my custom, fortunately there are plenty of alternatives to choose from on Queens Road.

Brilliant café on Queens Road, Clarendon Park: get one delicious breakfast and double up for only £2.50 Outdoor seating available, very good barista coffees ☕️ ☕️ Healthy smoothies too.

Great food, lovely staff, couldn't ask for much more

Lovely atmosphere and environment with kind and friendly staff. Unfortunately I was disappointed with the frappes as I essentially paid £5 for some flavoured milk :/

Fantastic, soft and fresh doorstep sandwich. Jacket potato with ample fillings to choose from. Delicious cakes on offer. Many gluten free and vegan options available. Will definitely return when in the area.

Always lovely good and friendly staff, that make you feel welcome..dog friendly to which is nice especially when I go with my gran and my boys as my boys love dogs. Never too noisy but always steady to busy but always seem to be able to get a seat. Highly recommend

Quite nice for a snack and coffee

Really nice cafe. Could do with a good clean though.

They win my vote playing all the sixties & seventy records

Always a lovely, friendly atmosphere, great service and extra marshmallows with the hot chocolate.

Homely food at a reasonable price

Needed to kill a bit of time so decided in this cafe on Queens Road as looked nice from the outside and a few people inside which is always a good sign. Coffee good and staff very pleasant. Only complaint was the size of croissant for 3.25!!!!

The air quality and ventilation in this café need an urgent improvement. The smell of oil filled the place, making it impossible to breathe. For the sake of your staff and customers, please do something. Well, the latte I ordered for takeaway was more like coffee flavored milk than coffee with milk added. The sweetness of milk was the first and probably the only thing I tasted. The only thing that lit up this place was the waitress who was so nice and polite.

I'm not a regular but this place is Far too overcomplicated for me. Food good, a little on the expensive side tho.

Only had a latte on this visit but the best latte I've ever had!!!

Went here for breakfast, eggs were unseasoned and microwaved which for the price is pretty disappointing. The place overall just needs a bit of a refresh. A lot of wear on the walls / skirtings / furniture etc. However service is always quick and the atmosphere is always pleasant.

Lots of different choices on the menu, including the option to upgrade a breakfast to a larger size.

There are a few coffee and light meal options on Queens Road but this was the one with the queue which indicated that it would be good coffee - which it definitely was. Take your time browsing a couple of charity book and music shops then dive in here for a coffee

Great cherry bakewell 😋 nice flat white, friendly relaxed service

Lovely coffee and cake Doggy friendly

Very cocky rude member of staff,you know who you are ! You really need to brush up on your people skills. Don't bother spending your money here .

Friendly and accommodating staff. The breakfast was tasty and served rather quickly ! Loads of options for vegans and vegetarians. Will Be back for more !

Good service, worth the 2,50 extra to top up breakfast, really good value and nice

Had breakfast with my wife and smallest child.. not too busy at 10.30am and service was very quick and efficient. Premises well presented with menus on walls with lots of pictures to peruse.. comfortable seating. I have scramble egg on 2 brown doorstep toast with bacon with pot of tea to share .. I must say food was very good. Well done.

Fingerprints is one among many coffeehouses on Queens Road. Of those, Fingerprints has the highest seating capacity. The tables are kept clean and the service is fast. They do serve a full menu of lunches which set the place apart from its competitors. They also retails jams and condiments and other similar foodstuffs made by neighbourhood locals. Prices, coffee, and food are all good enough for Clarendon Park

Vegetarian breakfast was delicious plus it is dog friendly which is amazing.

A great place for breakfast and lunch, been going there since we moved to Leicester and the staff are always welcoming and the food is always spot on.

Very friendly - good coffee - nice breakfast muffin

Love their breakfast & jacket potato. Good customer service and fresh salad served with meals. Our local to go place Thankyou!

Lovely place to sit and have a coffee and something to eat. The vegan carrot cake is my favourite!

Great little cafe with loads of vegan options! Friendly staff who went out of their way and me and my friend both enjoyed our food. Would recommend for a cheap and cheerful bite to eat🦋

I've never visited here before, however I'd arranged to meet some friends for breakfast. I walked in to the cafe with a friend and promptly had to walk out as it smelt very bad and made both me and my friend nauseous. The cafe was unclean looking with food marks on the walls and just tired and dirty looking decor. The person serving also put us off by wiping his face with both hands then continuing to serve people. Not a place I would want to eat in. If I could give 0 stars I would.

Arrived on Sunday morning, none of the staff acknowledged for 5 minutes. I asked where the menus were and the waitress didn’t look up from the till and just pointed at the blackboard behind her. We decided to leave go to somewhere else on Queens Road. Won’t be visiting again or recommending.

Came here for lunch. Always receive a warm welcome from the staff. Enjoyed the vegan spinach and lentil roll. Partner had the Jamaican chicken wrap. Good portion sizes, good prices and offer student discount. Can’t wait to come back!

Awful atmosphere, great service. Prime location. However, it smelly terrible inside, I don’t know what it is but it just reeks of something so weird.

Guy who works the mornings mid week is excellent nothing is to much! And he makes a cracking flat white!! Music is nice to listen to! Beats the snobbery of the places down the road!! Top job!

We enjoyed our visit here. The staffs were welcoming and helpful. Our English Breakfast Tea was served to near perfection. The cake was delicious.

Great coffee and a visiting robin to complete the experience

Just look how wonderful the coffee is served at the Fingerprint Deli. Just look at it, perfection. They get the 👍🏻 up from me

Family run café with most excellent coffee and cake. 👍

The staff were approachable, funny and welcoming. I've had the carrot and coriander soup, which was to die for!

I must say I am quite surprised by some of the reviews below. It may be they have made some improvements recently. Visited last week with a friend during the day to get some work done and have a late lunch. The staff were nice and helpful. The menu is quite extensive. The falafel wrap and the big portion of nachos was pleasant for a quick lunch. It seems to have a community feel to it. The table to the left had an elderly couple enjoying a french press between them while reading the paper. There was a group of students behind who appeared to be having a very late breakfast. The only aspect I found odd was it seems all coffee is served with a single shot of coffee as standard and a double shot is extra.

Very sweet little cafe in the heart of the Queen's Road. All sorts of lovely things on the menu but nothing really more than a snacky lunch, not full hot lunch. But good quality nevertheless. Will be back.

We arrived at 945 on a Sunday. The man at the door said we are closed. As it was raining I thought he'd let us in. Then 10 minutes after that another man entered and unlocked the door. Saying nothing. Still raining and we were left standing. All I wanted was to be let in out of the rain. At 10 We guessed we could go in. Went up to the counter and asked to be served. We had decent meal, but we had to ask for everything.

Travelled other end of Leicester to enjoy this cafe as I've received, by word of mouth, that this cafe is extremely well portioned with food and the atmosphere is very pleasant. However, me and a couple of friends ordered food and drinks from here all of which had some fault, whether lack of products, slow service or cold, bland food and almost like dirty water. I wouldn't recommend this place and will surely not be coming again.

Very tasty food, and it's fresh. I experienced a 15 min wait for my food, which I was told about, and it was worth it. Coffee was also very good, and served how I like my black coffee.. Espresso with a side of hot water, so I can mix it to taste.

Just finished a bite to eat in here and can safely say I won’t be going back... how hard can it be to make cheese and beans on toast... Well, very difficult if my experience is anything to go by. I asked for cheese on toast with beans on top, every other time the cheese is melted and the beans on top, perfect! Well not today... instead I got unbuttered toast with lukewarm beans and grated cheese. I checked three times with the girl that brought my food to me and she assured me the cheese on the top was to ‘make it look pretty’ whilst rolling her eyes! I even approached the manager at the end to say ‘it’s not up to your usual standard’ and his reply was ‘well you should have said’ and he clearly didn’t believe me when I said the toast was unbuttered. So I would save yourselves the bother and pop the The Northern Cobbler a little further up the road.

Hate to say this but I had a truly awful experience today. Went for lunch at noon. Advertised soup was not available, the quiche wasn’t ready as it was “a lunch item”. Finally chose avocado toast which was served with a half-hearted apology from the waitress that the avocado was a “bit hard”. Inedible. At least they refunded it without a fuss. Won’t be going back.

This is a friendly place to eat and drink on Queens Road and is always busy.

Adoro o Fingerprints. Sempre que posso, dou uma passadinha lá pra tomar um cafezinho antes de ir para o Campus Universitário. Quem gosta de Beans and Toast merece provar. A Jacket Potato também é muito gostosa e são coisas bem típicas do café da manhã Inglês

Our local favourite. This cafe is the best we've found in the area - lots of lunch time options (baked potato with humous + roast veg is one of my faves) and happy to be flexible with ingredients for fussy eaters.

Always friendly and comfortable. Delicious, healthy food. Great independent cafe.

I was really impressed with the range of vegan options served. One of the best ranges I’ve come across. I had the bakewell slice and it was incredible. The gentleman who served me on Thursday (sorry not sure of his name) was lovely and welcoming. Will always come back to Fingerprints. Definitely my favourite place in Clarendon Park.

Great food good value good vegan options

I really like this cafe and will always choose it when in the Clarendon Park area. The staff are excellent. Fantastic coffee and a great selection of freshly cooked food. However, the one negative for me is the overriding greasy food smell. If you eat here the likelihood is that your clothes will remind you of your visit long after you have left. If it had decent (or any) working extraction system it would get five stars from me.

Stopped by after school to get some lunch and also had the hot chocolate. Staff are friendly. Lots of moms and babies with their strollers around. The hot chocolate was good and topped with marshmallows! (so cute) Good place to meet up with someone for a hot drink.

Nice food really well priced and great coffee!

La primera impresión no es especialmente buena. Combinación de colores y muebles necesita ser actualizado. Lugar parece apagada. Menú básico cafe. No hay menú infantil aunque el personal dispuesto a dar medias raciones. Personal amable. Con nuevas tiendas de café y restaurante la apertura de huellas digitales cerca debería considerar la renovación y revisado el menú.

Paramos para tomar un aperitivo por la tarde byvhere y ambos fuimos para un batido de caramelo y vainilla -. Estas estaban deliciosos! ! Yo tenía un sandwich de queso y cebolla y pan tostado de mi otra mitad tenía una galleta grande. Ambos estaban muy sabrosos. En general muy buen servicio, agradable para sentarse afuera y muy bien de precio. Recomiendo

Came in for quick breakfast post nights and as partner needed haircut at barbers. Fast service. Reasonable price. Good breakfast sandwich. Great for a quiet drink or small bite.

Solid little cafe style eatery along Queens road. decent menu, good value, and open on a Sunday when others are shut! The bacon sausage hash brown muffin is usually the brunch of choice! The one thing that annoys me sometimes is you pay at the...

Locally run cafe. Wasn't busy but we were early. Ordered coffee and tea cake. Coffee in 3 pots, one for the coffee itself, one for hot water and one for milk. Not quite what we were expecting but still very nice.

Estado aquí dos veces con amigos recientemente y siempre tenemos un buen tiempo. El personal es amable, la comida es sencilla pero buena y los precios lo justo. Los paninis son geniales y el quiche casera es deliciosa. Una pena que no es ningún más...

Fuimos para el brunch en un sábado. No era demasiado lleno, así que era agradable. Tuve la ensalada de atún y mi amigo se un sándwich ubicada, ambos estaban deliciosos. Había estado una vez antes para desayunar, tuvimos el desayuno magdalenas, que también eran buenas....

Tenía un agradable y tranquilo café y un bacon, salchichas y patatas magdalenas de color marrón. Pequeño, muy concurrida, y el personal es amable. Primera volvería otra vez.

The staff are always friendly & helpful & the food is very tasty. It's a pleasure to keep going back to this lovely café.

Have been here a number of times. The coffee is excellent and their sausage and bacon muffins are to die for! Great place to go chill before shopping down Queens Road.

I visit my daughter regularly and we always go to fingerprints for breakfast or lunch. The latte is the best I've had and they are one of the few places that still give a biscuit with the coffee. The food is always fresh and interesting. The staff are friendly and lovely. It's great having a place like this so close to my daughters house

Best cup of flat white and great freshly made food at a very reasonable price

Flat white ... Best cup found. Meatball cheese melt paninni with Cajun wedges (£5.70) very tasty . All about the food

I love fingerprints, every time me and my boyfriend are in Leicester he wants to go. Love the range of food here, there is always something I fancy. Food is freshly made and not just put in the microwave or made earlier. Nice atmosphere and community feel. Also quite cheap and they do student discount as well.

Stumbled across this place whilst killing time whilst my wife visited the dentist - very friendly service and quality food - I only had a Jacket Potatoe and a side salad which could easily have been wrong - however, really tasty, fresh salad and a great welcome. Will definatey return when im next killing time..

Friendly, chilled atmosphere & good variety on offer. Never disappointed here. Great place to spend some time.

Went in for lunch today. Figured I'd have a latte and a cookie as well. Everything was fantastic. Bread was great on the sandwich. Their Cajun potato wedges were great. Definitely recommend.

Love the atmosphere of this place, staff are friendly and food is really good! Fairly priced too! Gem of the area :)

I've been coming here with my best mate regularly for a while, and for good reason. This little cafe on Queens road - 5 mins walk from the university campus - really is something special. The staff are so friendly, the food is fantastic - great veggie, vegan and gluten-free options too - and there's a little outside seating area on the front of the cafe where you can sit and chill on a sunny day. Also STUDENT DISCOUNT!!!

Was in the area and chanced upon Fingerprints. Found a lovely venue with great coffee, food and service. The staff were friendly and there seemed to be a lot of regulars. A nice treat
