Nimia in Windsor and Maidenhead

Minis is a small coffee shop on Eton High Street. It’s quite small, so seating may not always be available, but the cakes and coffee are really brilliant. I was looking for a snack after walking a few miles on the Thames Path and found Nimia, just a few m from the route of the path. I had a black coffee and a vegan rocky road. Both were excellent. Because there’s not much space, I had my snack sitting on the benches on Eton Bridge. Very relaxing.

If you’re looking for the perfect cup of tea or coffee, pastry, friendly service and a seat away from the bustle, this is the place!!

Excellent coffee house. The best in the area by far.

A lovely little coffee shop, serving a small menu of excellent offerings. Love a coffee and canoli here.

Excellent place, so homely, the lady is the kindest and she makes the best cappuccino!

Avocado with Chorizo Brioche today was excellent! Fabulous Chocolate Cake! ...... Coffee was good too! Still lovely!

We love it here. Excellent service, cute independent coffee shop, dog lovers and the best sausage rolls ever (according to my son!). Food is delicious and the Italian take away cannoli are so tasty. Highly recommend.

Small but first rate. Drinks are delicious snd staff charming.

They make the most if their little shop

Absolutely amazing 😍🥳❤️, great customer service, super delicious food and coffees, clean and imaculate toilette, wonderful atmosphere and staff❤️

Today was our second visit. We had the sausage brioche and the avocado brioche. They’re not huge but very tasty. Very friendly staff.

Lovely little coffee shop. I had a great ciabatta with humus and salami. Bread was nice and fresh, only improvement was maybe slightly bigger roll. The service is very friendly and they also do catering.

Lovely store owner/staff. Great cannoli selection. 10-15min walk from Windsor Castle👌

Great vibe and the staff was so kind to my kids. Loved the iced coffee

Probably the best coffee i’ve ever had

I’m so happy that I found this cute little coffee shop, I have walked past before without noticing! The staff were so friendly and the sausage in a Brioche bun was delicious 🥰

Wonderful home baking, Italian baking, really nice atmosphere, welcoming staff, good coffee. I must when visiting Eton or Windsor.

We bundled in here on a very chilly January afternoon. It smelt of the best coffee! the decaf cappuccino was superb! We also had some cakes for the kids which they really enjoyed. Thanks guys. Sorry we didn't buy a hat. They looked fun. Not my thing.

Great red velvet cake and quiet atmosphere. Perfect!

A few minutes’ walk from the centre of Windsor, and well worth the tiny detour. Great coffee, and really nice ciabatta sandwiches.

Great coffee and Italian cakes and the owner is a delightful person to chat with

Great little cafe just over the Thames footbridge in Windsor. The coffee was excellent and there is a delicious range of food, including Italian cakes. The owner, Enza was friendly, welcoming and delightful to have a chat.

Super friendly, and tasty arancini and cakes.

Yummy rolls, good coffee, dog friendly

We were in Eton and decided to visit. So very pleased we did. Coffee was good, well it is Italian, food was good. The variety is excellent and all is freshly prepared. I had a sausage sandwich, awesome, and my partner had a smashed avacado sandwich. I had a taste, never tasted anything like it!! To my embarrasment Nimia is in the next village, never tried it. We have decided to mske it once a week now. Thoroughly recommend this establishment.

Such a lovely welcome for a bunch of people arriving in one go , including making space for a double buggy. Good coffee and cakes. Great independent coffee shop. Grazie !

Great coffee, had a sausage brioche. It was very tasty. Had visited before a while ago and the lady remember me from before which was so nice. Was able to sit quietly with my two whippets. Such a lovely little place. Relaxing

We visited Eton with our small dog in July 2023 and were lured in by the yummy treats on display in the window. A water bowl was waiting by the entrance, and staff welcomed our dog with dog treats! What a pleasant surprise! The café is small, but has several tables for eating in, and take away is also available. The cannoli were lovely, and we came back later to purchase some to take home. A big thumbs up to the friendly and approachable staff, the tasty homemade treats & menu options (e.g. vegan), and for being dog friendly.

Fab place. Very friendly and professional staff. They welcomed us and our dog (with a dog treat), and we were able to sit inside with the dog. We had tea and iced coffee along with a cake and a couple of canollis, and even bought 2 boxes of canollis to take away. Good price and quality and would recommend.

We were on a day out to Eton with our small dog and looking for a café for refreshments. Nimia's display of treats, including cannoli, in their window lured us in, and the water bowl was a welcome sight for our dog after our walk along the Thames. Upon entering staff offered a biscuit to our dog - what a lovely gesture, and it was refreshing to see staff welcoming dogs in their establishment. We had cannolis to go with our drinks, and after enjoying them so much we came back later to pick up some more cannolis for at home. A small café in a bustling high street, the service was great, staff welcoming, and the menu offers a variety of treats, including vegan options. The fact that it is dog friendly is much appreciated.

Warm welcome and lovely coffee.

Delicious cakes, especially the carrot and apricot cake. Very good coffee with friendly service. Tiny cafe with not a lot of seating but fun quirky decor.

We entered the café after discovering it was open much past its closing hour and were greeted by the affable owner. Since it was the end of the day, many of the menu options were sold out, but the proprietor was very friendly and assisted us in selecting some excellent food items. The chocolate gelato was creamy and sausage roll was quite delicious.

Just great coffee and very friendly!

The service was amazing and the staff were lovely. Great coffee great pastries

very tasty coffee, pleasant shop, nice service

They charged £4 for a slice of cake walnut and coffee the slice was so thin it could stand up lol 😂 I can’t bare people taking money off customers and not giving back a decent service. I have a picture would love to post it ! It’s tiny

Very cosy cafe - I don't think they often have a group of 7 all at once but they were very welcoming. Freshly prepared ciabatta etc and good choice of teas (& coffee).

Lovely small cafe, nice staff member and good coffee. As they say, the best tasting cup of coffee will always come down to personal preference. I loved their espresso as it had that right balanced level of bitterness and not watery. It was smooth! Calm and warm ambiance.

Excellent Coffee, very homely setup and warm barista to greet you 😊

Friendly staff and a lovely place for a coffee!

Staff is borderline rude, will avoid next time.

Beautiful morning at Nimia with my family on Sunday morning. Great coffee , delicious cannoli and cakes . Lovely service , definitely we will return.

Cute and cosy coffee shop. The coffee is excellent and the cake we tried (lemon flap jack) delicious. Very friendly staff and atmosphere

Really lovely little place with delicious canolis!

Wee little friendly coffee shop on the Eton side of the Thames from Windsor just over the fit bridge. Lovely coffee and cake friendly chatty staff much better than the Costa coffee next door. Always support the local retailers this one is worth a visit. Early we were the only people there in a rainy day.

Lovely food, special mood, friendly host!

We have only been about 7 times as it’s absolutely a place to keep for very special occasions. The older generation are all gone. What would they think? Doorman was brilliant despite the rain. I guess we were greeted but it was nothing special. We choose to go to the lounge for a drink. No cocktails menu was seen? I really fancied experimenting but without a menu that’s impossible. Food menu arrived very quickly, too quickly for me. I was shocked to see I had prices on mine. My husband says it’s the new way. So I guess at 60 I need to change. I got all the way to the table before anyone took my coat. I’m nut intolerant but rarely say anything as people panic and the menu becomes minute. I don’t have severe reactions and a bit of nut oil won’t do anything. It’s only things that are full of nuts that are a problem. Nuts now seem to be very prevalent on this menu. We have a menu from 2009 I must find it and compare. Anyone with a nut allergy visiting now would feel like a vegan. Lobster starter was really lovely. Excellent presentation and preparation. My husband was jealous, but enjoy his own dish as well. No beef or steak on the main menu, Duck I sometimes adore but it has to be perfect luckily it was. My husband a real carnivore again enjoyed his meal I simply can’t remember what it was. We had mashed potatoes on the side, of course they were lovely but definitely need to be called creamed potatoes. Dessert Nuts Nuts Nuts. Plumbs and Plumbs. I’m not keen on plumbs I will eat them at a friends house to be polite but as I now get to see the prices I’m not paying £45 for something I’m not keen on. On the off chance that the Pistachio crème brûlée was only topped with nuts we asked, no it’s nuts all through. Now the kitchen know my predicament. Nothing was available not even ice cream was offered. How long could fruit salad and caramel sauce take. The Restaurant was only half full it being mid week in November. Coffee was served at the table not in the lounge. The petit-fours were less than before. I was now told I could only have two . Again the reason I don’t say I have a problem. Because my husbands almond based one was lovely. Almonds are not true nuts a chef of a high calibrate should know that. I have seen things produced out of thin air for my Gluten Free daughter sometimes. Obviously not always. But an inability to put together a dessert in such a kitchen is unbelievable. I didn’t think the waiting staff could have looked more miserable than they had appeared most of the evening but even they looked sad. No chef came out of the kitchen. I guess we were earlier leaving than normal. But it’s the first time we recall not seeing any kitchen staff. So I don’t know where we will celebrate my 70th birthday alongside out 50th Wedding Anniversary. But it won’t be here. The atmosphere was none existent as well. No flamboyant staff. No chatting. No reason to hang around.

Didn't eat here - but very very good coffee. Bit of a wait as only one person working there which isn't enough for a Saturday - but would return for the coffee.

Very cute coffee shop on Eton high street. Fab homemade cakes. Good coffee. Nice ambience.

Regular visitors to Nimia. Love the coffee and cakes - always a delicious vegan option or two! Lovely owners and staff have always been super helpful.

Great iced coffee on a hot day! Canolis were delicious

A delightful cafe a bit away from the main streets of Windsor. There are a great selection of cakes and biscuits and the smoothies are delicious and perfect for a hot summer day.

Two times I tried this place, always popular with customer, however, both occasions I tried hot chocolates, both occasions the drink was lukewarm at best. Need to ensure hot drinks are at a hot temperature.

Not into it. Weird pre fab cakes n pastries and bland coffee. Go anywhere else

We stopped here on Sunday and had some beautiful cannoli and nougat to go with our coffees. Lovely location, friendly service and a nice environment to relax in.

Stopped here for a latte. It’s a lovely place and the staff we helpful and friendly. Love the empty oat milk cartons as cup holders! Unfortunately, the coffee was good, but not great. Definitely go here over a chain coffee shop, but it’s not a place for speciality coffee. The taste was a bit flat and basic, and the milk was overheated so that it was hot enough to burn my tongue, too hot for a latte. I didn’t have a cake but my god they looked delicious!!

Great service, great coffee, and I greatly appreciate the amount of Springsteen I hear playing here.

Lovely coffee shop, very friendly staff, tasty cakes ☕😊

Thank you to the staff for always being genuinley friendly. Great food, Great coffee and those little pastries are my downfall! Yum yum

Amazing collection of Italian treats

Attractive coffee shop with a decent selection of food and drink. We just ordered a oat milk chilled latte that was good. Nice service.

The sisters that own or run this are two of the most rude people I’ve ever met. I don’t know how they’ve managed to get such good ratings - maybe people that have come only once and never again. Nothing here is made on site and their “nimia blend” roasted beans are repackaged cheap beans bought from any wholesaler.

Lovely coffee, friendly and a great location. I will be returning.

Excellent coffee and canolli, nice chatty, efficient knowledgeable staff, lovely summer day, what's not to like ? . Good selection of baking, well displayed. Expresso was clean and tasty,not bitter at all and no aftertaste, good finish as it were. Thoroughly recommend.

Great coffee and nice snacks. A beautiful, small, quirky coffee owned by a passionate lady who make you feel welcome

Excellent coffee. Great italian pastries. A little bit of Sicily in Eton High Street

The staff are always lovely and friendly. It's a lovely coffee shop. ☕

The best Sicilian almond mandarin cookies that I have ever had. Shipped in from Sicily after Brexit :)

Highly recommended Nimia! I enquired if they would be able to make and deliver some special cupcakes to a colleague in Windsor, with 24 hours notice they created some fantastic cupcakes and delivered. They were pieces of art, so impressed.

Just the best coffee around and the cakes are fabulous. Highly recommended.

We stop here most weekends, the coffee is constantly better than Costa. The cakes are excellent and service with a smile. Highly recommended.

A lovely cute place, with a few gluten free and vegan options. I had a gluten free brownie to go. The staff were very friendly and they had curbside service, so it was very efficient.

Coffee was very nice, had a hot cross bun, staff were very pleasant, would go again

Great coffee, friendly staff. Sweet bites are a must for cyclists 😁. Cannoli is yummy, home made I believe..., tend to stop here rather than join the bun fight in front of the castle.

Two times now I've tried hot drinks and on both occasions they are lukewarm and the cup is at 75% capacity. It's very popular but I guess as it's in a prime location however this reminds me of a scene from Curb Your Enthusiasm where...

This place is really really nice. A little pricy, but we'll worth it and what do you really expect with the quality and location. Situated in the heart of Eton High Street just a short walk from Windsor Castle. I stopped off at opening on Saturday morning at opening to pick up some sourdough and it was worth it. I will be going back again and reccomending it to others.

Lovely independent coffee shop. Highest standards of hygiene. Good quality coffee and if you're into scrummy sweet treats this is definitely the place to go. Be prepared to wait a little before being served. Loyalty card available too.

lovely little coffee shop with delicious pastries and hot chocolate! the italian pastry with the pistachio cream filling is delicious!

Amazing coffee and food. Best I've had for years. Strongly recommend Nimia

Great little place with some lovely cakes. Take away.

Excellent coffee & super buttery croissants. Gorgeous bakery just across the bridge from Windsor. UKLockdown 2.0 livesaver for takeouts.

We visit the team daily and couldn't fault anything they do! Wonderful bread, coffee and cakes. Pleasure to have you just around the corner!

Good latte, a really cute and pretty shop. Happy staff and easy to order from the doorway during lockdown.

Great coffee and cakes served with a smile , always love an indie coffee shop . Thank you

Incredible hospitality. My first time in Windsor and was given some great local knowledge. Everything made fresh on site, really lovely team. AMAZING coffee too!

Beautiful coffee shop with a range of vegan, vegetarian options too. I opted for the giant arancini, you can buy this on its own or in a meal deal, like I did. Absolutely delicious food & friendly staff. Lots of fresh, homemade food.

Aperitivo al top! Locale veramente carino e personale cortese, disponibili e sempre sorridente! Consiglio vivamente.

What a joy to discover Nimia on our bike ride to Eaton this morning. Delicious sausage brioche and properly brewed teas. All socially distanced. Perfect!

Don't miss a coffee at this little gem. I have been coming hear regularly for a year after my bike ride or walk.

Open for great coffee and home made cakes. Situated close to Eton Bridge on the Eton side, strongly recommend that you walk past the branch of Costa and find this little coffee shop. During lockdown the cakes are on the doorway and you order from...

Arrived at 4:24 on Sunday. It was cold and we were really happy to find a cafe that said yes to our Dog. Went in, easy to find a table as only one couple already there. Took cost off sat down on small hard stool....

Fabulous avocado on toast for brunch. I’m not sure what they’ve done to it but it was absolutely delicious! Very nice vibe, relaxed and comfortable , gentle chit chat in background but not overpowering just cosy, music gentle also. Recommend this place wholeheartedly Took me...

I always grab my coffee from this place when I'm in the area. Fantastic location near the river and Windsor castle. The staff is very friendly and the coffee is amazing! Highly recommended!

Special & intimate coffee shop in Eton - hands-on management!

This place is so cute!! I had a tea and the granola bar and it was amazing! Highly recommend stopping by if you are nearby for a cute ambiance and great food!

Great little coffee shop, great service and confectionary.

Popped into this bijou artisan coffee shop whilst walking through Windsor and Eton, brilliant service, lovely atmosphere and great coffee, lovely little twists make this a cosy lovely place to visit and enjoy, really pleased to see they had arancini for sale, sadly didn’t try one this time, but I walked past a Costa Coffee to get this place and was not disappointed.

Good Coffee shop in Eton High Street, it's a small Cafe but makes a change to using one of the big chains, all Sandwiches made freshly on the premises to order
