Super disappointed with the quality of food. A year ago before they got really busy the food was absolutely delicious, now it's not great. Bacon is hard and clearly left out for a while, some food not cooked evenly. Wouldn't come here for food but will say the service is very good, super welcoming and easy to go to with babies/toddlers.

Wouldn’t let me order without a table number at first but there was no table number. Had to go back to check and lost my place in queue. Explained where I was sitting and was told what table number it was as though I should have known what it was. Spoke to others outside and they had no table number either. There’s no need to make people feel awkward. Ask them where they’re sitting and I’m sure you’ll find them. Fix your table numbers!

Server waiter was nice however the front of house staff did not seem welcoming and a bit pretentious. The food came out before the drinks. The quality of the food wasn't too great either.

Gotta say, first time here as its next to our village and was amazed with both food, service and all round experience. Love what they've set up outside where we sat. Chicken & Chorizo pasta was best ever along with Lamb Burger with chilli salt fries. Definitely recommend and can't wait to return.

The perfect English breakfast begins with a perfectly cooked egg, and Okapi has that nailed down. The bacon and sausage were of a very good quality too, however we were not great fans of the garnish and ripe vine tomatoes (sometimes it feels like they're trying to reinvent the wheel a bit). I was apprehensive of the sourdough bread that came with the breakfast, but I was pleasantly surprised! Prices were reasonable overall, mind you I'd love to know the profit margins of £3 for extra mushrooms. The vibe is really cool and relaxed, it's a place you would enjoy spending time in. Service was also good and polite. We'll definitely be back soon!

Very noisy. Rather pricey. If you just want a snack it's not the best place. Surroundings pleasant. Summer time would be better as lots of outside space.

Amazing vegan breakfast, it’s wonderful to have a local restaurant that caters for vegans/vegetarians so well. With well thought out options (including tofu egg, dairy free milkshakes/pancakes, vegan sausages). The interior design of Okapi is simply stunning. Friendly attentive staff also. Always a lovely visit to Okapi!

The food was absolutely top notch. Beautifully cooked poached eggs, amazing sourdough bread, avocado simple but delicious and smoked salmon lovely and delicate. Pancake stack was full of fresh fruit and egg Benedict had a perfect holendais sauce. The restaurant itself is clean and the atmosphere was good. Will definitely comeback and recommend it to anyone. Prices are great for the food they are making. Thank you

We had a range of food as we couldn't chose. Before I start it's a wonderful atmosphere and staff friendly and helpful. OK the coffee is by fair one of the best coffee I've ever had. It was smooth and they have a range of alternative milks. I had the breakfast pizza of the Sunday brunch menu and it was delicious. Couldn't eat it all and they boxed it up. My partner had the big breakfast which had a good choice of food items and very well cooked. Because we wanted dessert breakfast we chose the French toast which was so sweet and lush. Honestly the only complaint was I couldn't eat more. Will definitely be heading back soon

One of my new fave breakfast places🫶🏻 Okapi Kitchen is such a hidden gem! Located in Blaby Golf Centre, this new restaurant is a must visit. Serving breakfast, lunch, and tapas, there’s no way you can be stuck for choice. We have visited twice for breakfast and both times I was delighted by the incredible food served. I have tried the Okapi Breakfast as well as the Fully Loaded Ciabatta. Both were cooked to perfection and you could tell that the ingredients used were of a high quality. For drinks, I first had an iced hazelnut latte and the second time I had a peach iced tea. Both drinks were so tasty with no faults! I am definitely intrigued about their lunch and tapas menu, so will be visiting at some point to try those out! I’ve heard good things about the pizza🍕👌🏼. Having the restaurant located in the golf centre also makes for a great time out! Our most recent visit followed a round of crazy golf on the Congo River Crazy Golf Course! There’s nothing better than tucking into a delicious meal after a competitive round of crazy golf🙌🏼.

Great environment. Food is a touch pricey, only do breakfast on Sunday, call it brunch but no brunch menu on website. Service very slow and inconsistent. A number of times asked for order and then had to ask repeatedly for the bill. But food was tasty but pricey eg an extra sausage is £4 and can't swap out items if you want to. Sort out service and options on a Sunday, and be able to swap brekkie items and this would be a strong 4 star gem!!

Food was great and arrived hot with healthy portion size on the chicken and rice noodles dish, however a lot of salad makes the plate up on the flatbread and pancakes weren't as great as they seemed so a few dunks into the syrup was essential. Service on drinks was perfect however food took a while to come (we were waiting for around 45mins), and booked a table for 2.45 with the closing time being 4pm so wasn't ideal for a long wait time however they accommodated with a late close due to a party being booked there also. Overall a lovely place to go and would return again maybe at a quieter time.

The interior and design is well thought out and gives a lovely ambience. The staff are all warm and friendly and most impressive is the food menu. The food was top tier for all of us and is something different to the usual local choices. Try it, you will love it! 10/10

I gave this restaurant 5 stars during our last visit, however had such a let down, and I think people need to know, because they don't promote it, friends came up from Harpenden for lunch, and decided to show them Okapi, on arrival they give you a menu 1 Breakfast 2 Lunch 3 Drinks and on the front some Breakfast menu for Sundays, only once we were ready to order lunch at 1-45 sorry we only do Breakfast on Sundays, why then give me a menu that has Lunch, please make people aware that you do NOT do lunch on Sundays, unfortunately we had to walk out, with a waitress who had attitude, only to find another venue, I'm sorry but if you want to stay in business, you either make patrons aware your kitchen closes at 12 on Sundays and not offer me a Breakfast at 1-45pm or say the kitchen is closed on Sundays and you only serve drinks and maybe ready made toasties. Unfortunately should you continue the way you are, you will close down. Such a pity because it is really a nice restaurant and fitted out so contemporary.

This place is set off the main road and you can't see it, we found it by going to the crazy golf place on the same site. The place is de orated really well and gives a good atmosphere to the place. The staff members were really helpful with my questions on the menu and gave recommendations where I wanted them. The quality of the food we had was good, it tasted really nice too and presented very well. Worth a visit for breakfast or lunch. When asked, they are looking to open up some evenings with an evening menu.

A pesar de que le dijeron que era el "segundo - mejor restaurante italiano en Leicester", fue una experiencia decepcionante. Las mesas son estrechas; espere trepar por encima de los asientos para llegar a los asientos, pero eso puede aumentar el ambiente si la comida y el servicio son increíbles. Tristemente, el servicio que experimenté fue terrible. El arrancador que pedí no estaba disponible, así que hice una segunda elección. No se ofrecieron disculpas. Cuando salieron los entrantes, faltaba el mío. Una vez más, sin disculpas. Me aseguraron que lo harían rápidamente. Cuando el resto de la mesa terminó el curso, cancelé mi entrante porque no estaba preparado para sentarme y comerlo solo. Hubo una pequeña actitud del personal de camareros, ya que estaba 'casi listo'. Una vez más, sin disculpas. Pedí la misma pizza que otros dos invitados a mi mesa (todos varones) , y como todavía tenía que comer algo, habría esperado como gesto que yo recibiría el mío primero. Fui el último en recibir el plato principal. Servicio descuidado o vengativo, no puedo decir. Para ser justos, cuando finalmente tuve algo de comer, la principal fue una pizza perfectamente buena y auténtica. No puede decirse lo mismo del postre. El tiramisú no era el café - dulce empapado que he disfrutado en otros lugares. Era un vaso lleno de esponja casi seca, crema y un dragado de cacao en polvo. Sin capas, sin sabor. Si no hubiera estado en una fiesta de gente que no conozco tan bien, habría hecho que el segundo plato volviera a la cocina. Lamentablemente, dos platos deficientes con un servicio grosero y descuidado no compensan una buena pizza.
