First time here came today with the little one to try this place out and we are both glad we did, it was a nice and cosy and peaceful atmosphere we ordered 2 paninis 1 hot chocolate and 2 latte due to the first one been lovely. personally I had the mexican panini and my partner had the ham and cheese panini we also order a side of bbq chicken dirty fries and certainly was not disappointed, when we finished our meals we had a nice chat with a few staff members in there and didn't realise what they do for the community. I recommend to anyone who wants to support a local small business or just wants to pop in for the best coffee around and a chat definitely come here but the food was a 10/10 we will be regulars from now on 🙂

It's been a while since I last got to catch up with friends over a coffee and some lunch. When the opportunity does arise, I like to come to here as I know it's a place I can trust. The food is always fresh and tasty, the tea or coffee hot and refreshing, and the place clean and tidy with friendly and helpful staff. On and off I've been coming here since it opened and I will continue to do so as I always enjoy my visit.

I really have to put this on to try and get the girls who work in this place to up their game massively. The single worst breakfast I have had in my life. The Bacon was like hardened plastic and flew off my wife's plate like a tiddlywink when she attempted to put her fork into it, the sausages were the lowest grade known to man, almost 'aero like' a thick crust on the outside, hollow on the inside. The hash brown was saturated in what I can describe as really old chip fat which had a similar taste as to the smell of diesel, same again when it came to the mushrooms. The eggs were extremely burnt, grey on the top with no signs of a yoke, they resembled something that had been used to clean up the floor before being put on the plate. I really hope this is read and improvements made, as a functioning cafe should not be allowed to serve food like this to the public. On the plus side, the toast was nice and both girls were very polite, which makes writing this review all the more difficult.

We were in hartlepool and decided we needed a coffee. We dont do costa or Starbucks with the view of supporting local places. A quick Google online for speciality coffee shops brought back lilyanne's. The cafe suggests its hand crafted coffee etc. There doesn't appear to be anything special about the coffee. There's no information on the coffee supplied. Country of origin, roaster etc. The black coffee I did get was piping hot, I'm sure coffee shouldn't be made with boiling to avoid scolding the coffee. That said the coffee was nice. The cafe its self has some good decor but I noted in places were it could do with some TLC. Sadly the cafe was untidy and would of benefited from a sweep. The staff were nice and I was impressed when they checked everything was ok. You dont normally get that. Happy to return and give it another go.

I ordered some food yesterday for me and my kids and had read majority of the reviews so I decided on here, however when it came and I opened it up and I couldn't tell the chips from the pulled pork the chips were that burnt there was hardly any potato inside. And the bacon inside my sandwich was rock hard which was inedible there was a spoonful of beans and about 5 mushrooms, the only decent part was the bun. I will not be going back to this place, and would definitely not be recommending this place to my family and friends.

Recently visited Lilly Anne’s Coffee Bar for afternoon tea using a groupon voucher. Young staff were friendly. Not much atmosphere as we were the only ones in. Choice of tea or coffee, afternoon tea was fine.. very basic but no complaints. Glad it was via a groupon and not full price. Wouldn’t necessarily return as we’re not local, but can imagine it being a handy little coffee shop if passing.

Told us when the products for my mums dietary needs were purchased and a member of their team was empathic as also had a family member that had the same condition.No one invaded our time but were available if we needed anything. We'd totally recommend this coffee shop to anyone. Decent sized cups of coffee and tea,warm scones, dainty finger sandwiches and gorgeous cakes!

Friendly staff, or proprietors, and a central location, being on Victoria Road, immediately behind a well-used bus stop. The place could have been a bit cleaner, but it was late in the day and it may have been busy just before we arrived. Unfortunately the cafe closes at 4 pm, as we were politely reminded a couple of times. The coffee Americano was great. The special "high tea" was quite alright, but somehow felt out of place here. Being in the city, there is no outlook, so this cafe really depends on passing trade. Parking nearby behind the Grange centre is convenient.

We only had lunch here just sandwiches and tea. The tea was fine but the sandwiches were awful.. Very dry no butter on the sandwiches. When we asked why no butter on the sandwiches they said most people had dietary requirements which meant they couldnt have butter!! You have to pay an extra 55p if you want a side salad with the sandwiches, which consisted of some lettuce two slices of cucumber a small tomato and the worst coleslaw i have every eaten. I will say that the staff were friendly enough but will not be going again.

This intimate little café is a gem. First off, the staff are friendly and helpful. The coffee isn't your bobby basic wholesale stuff; it's delicious and they must source it differently. They always have some form of decoration up and take that side of it seriously. The other thing that is unique in Hartlepool is the chance to buy a "suspended coffee" for somebody else (in partnership with a local charity). What they don't shout about is that for every suspended coffee bought by a customer, they will match it. Just a brilliant place.

Wasn't impressed, it was quite expensive, the scones we had were a bought in pack from a supermarket and the cake I had was home made but a dry sponge and overly sloppy cream plus two coffees and cost over £12.00. I have had coffee and cake in much better places in town at half the price with much better home baking. I hope that that this was an off day but I won't be returning to find out.

The window seat allows you to watch people milling around, off on the bus and so on. We had afternoon tea, a delicious combination of cakes and sandwiches and either tea or coffee. There was one of our group with 'simple' tastes who the staff were happy to help! It's a great value, family owned place with good food and drink. What's not to like.
