I've been here a few times for lunch and its a nice cosy cafe. The outside sitting area is great during the summer months. Their sandwiches are really delicious and their range of soups are nice as well.

We both had the full English breakfast and it was plentiful and absolutely delicious. Everything was cooked freshly, promptly and to perfection (in our opinion) and there was a wide choice of items to vary the plate. The staff were very pleasant and attentive, and this added to the very relaxed feel to the cafe. Importantly, for us as we had an early appointment to make, the cafe was open from 8am and the service was very prompt. Well done and thank you.

Stumbled upon this little gem. Greeted warmly by a lady called Karen, but all of the staff were friendly and warm. The full English was Delicious, Fresh, quality produce well made. The best I've had in a few years. Topped off with a very tasty Chai Latte. Overall experience very pleasant. Definitely see you again soon ladies.

A great place owned and run by a lovely couple. You will not be disappointed by the quality of the food & attentive service. New owners taken over but very personable. You may be disappointed to find the crayfish tails are off the menu.

We had visited here once before and had a good experience, so decided to have lunch here again just before Christmas. It was a very cold day and it was cold inside too. There was a small heater upstairs, but it was only enough to warm one table at the far end of the room. In hindsight we should have moved on. My husband had a Christmas themed sandwich with turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce, but it turned out to be mostly stuffing. I ordered a jacket potato to find I had a very small potato (barely the length of my little finger) and barely any salad (see pic). A most disappointing meal. I can’t see us returning.

Friendly service in this little cafe, with great food. My husband had a jacket potato with a nice side salad garnish, and I had a delicious beef sandwich, from their specials board. Fresh crusty bread, not mean with filling, and very tasty.

Staff are always friendly & welcoming & service is generally good. A lot of the staff have long hair which is always loose & has the potential for dangling or shedding into food which is a personnal dislike of mine. Toasties have gone down hill. They are barely toasted, often luke warm & cheese not even slightly melted in them. I have stopped ordering these & go for sandwiches or rolls which are fine.

Food is excellent, been using this cafe for a number of years, however not sure if it’s changed ownership or just some staff changes but it is no where near as efficient in service as it was.

I've been here a few times and thought it was now time to give a review. Each time I have had the smoke salmon wrap with creme fraiche. I am always happy that they do not skimp on the smoked salmon, which is not cheap, and all the salad is fresh and crispy. The prices are really reasonable and their cakes are also quite tasty. Sitting on the tables and chairs outside on a warm spring or summer day is most pleasant indeed. I will definitely be a regular here when I am in Leicester.

Rude! I called to ask if they had any food that cost £1 and the guy I spoke with said no and hang up the phone without letting me explain further. I guess this place is only kind to people who already bought something, otherwise they're rude. The reason I asked was because of a project so it could have been a good chance for this place to be advertised on YouTube.
