Party Pieces in Charnwood

Visited this cafe for nearly a year now. Portion sizes are a good size. Favourite place for lunch as they do cheese and bean toasties. Always choose here when coming with family. Cafe also offers a variety of lovely cakes. Very busy and popular. Service always with a smile. Can’t wait to go again already!

First time visiting today and wow I've never seen such a beautiful display of cakes in my life. The portion sizes are huge and the service was lovely with a smile. Very busy and popular place and you can see why. Nicely decorated and spotlessly clean.Can't wait to go back and try that quiche.

I asked if they had a vegetarian breakfast, the lady behind the counter said no !!! She said she could do beans or poached egg on toast " I didn't ask for that so why would I want that " she then said I could have a mozzarella panini? 🤔 I didn't even ask if it was vegetarian because she was looking at me like I was weird for being vegetarian lol My partner had an all day breakfast, so why couldn't I have similar but with no bacon or sausage ? 🙄" Again no option because the lady couldn't be bothered with me, and was staring at me making me feel embarrassed in front of everyone. To put up and shut up, i said i will have a cheese and tomato toastie, hmmm ... it was a cross between a toastie and a sandwich 🤣 It was toast which was good 🤣 , but the cheese and tomato wasn't melted, just put in like a sandwich 🤔 ? If you are vegetarian don't bother going here, and also the lady behind the counter with the dark hair " you need to do customer service training " 😉

Have been going to pParty Pieces in Loughborough for quite a few years, the standard of food is very high, the best , in my opinion, in town. A friendly and welcoming atmosphere and Steve and Sally front of house. A simple menu with tasty fillers, but for the best expoerience, it has to be the cakes. I have added inches from the taste testing of the complete range, I have notable favourites, but to those that have never been, put it on your bucket list, you'll not be disappointed.

We took our three young children here and recieved a really friendly welcome, they were very accommodating to us. The cooked breakfast was good and the cakes delicious. It was nice to have friendly service. :-)

We went on a Sunday afternoon.staff very good.we had apricot sponge. Really good so light and full of fruit nice ambience .one of my best to go in loughborough make sure to go early very busy

Went to buy some cake which are lovely. Stood at the counter, stood at the counter, was pushed past by a server, stood at the counter. Was pushed past by the server who started talking to someone she knew. Stood at the counter whilst she went and talked to someone else she knew. Decided I could do without cake and left, we went somewhere else to buy cake.

Lovely little place, friendly staff, great service ,great food, very clean ,very helpful,Fresh food, simple food ,good quality food ,you can’t go wrong eating here they give all good portions ,great Value for money what more could you ask for.

This was our first vist and we were not disappointed, we both had different filled panini’s. Must say they were excellent and all washed down with a lovely pot of Earl Grey. There was also a great variety of cakes but too full after the panini’s, next time it will be cake and tea.. Yes recommend.

First time visited, had the most amazing breakfast,cooked to perfection. The ingredients used are first class, quality. Free coffee top up is a nice touch too. They have a great menu to suit all, I will be back, it’s beautiful The cakes for next time look amazing Party Pieces what a gem

A bit cool on market day so called for a coffee. Lots of cakes to select, black coffees ok. Sat outside. Staff friendly and helpful. Will call again

Wanted a quick bite to eat somewhere that was accessible for disabled mother .Parked mobility scooter outside in sight .Cafe was half full with elderly people ,so presumed it would be good value.Service was very polite and reasonably quick .Prices not on chalk board ordered 2 x brown bread cheese and ham toasties ,which came with portion of good salad ,filling was good bread lovely .A black coffee and cappuccino which were good too .Just a bit surprised and think slightly overpriced ,costing close to £18 Overall nice food nice and clean and attentive staff brought coffee over to table with debit receipt but no receipt given so cannot comment on individual prices!!

Lived in Loughborough all my life and never been in until we sheltered under their awning today. It's a great little place with good food and I've seen the huge display of cakes so i can't stop, i need to sample!

The fact that the place is always busy kind of says it all, it is spotlessly clean and all staff are really friendly especially the lady that cleans the tables and Steve who works behind the counter, I have never had a bad snack from here that’s why I keep going back, I’ve tried the breakfast, toasted sandwich, panini sand of course tried various cakes, which are all to die for!! Excellent service excellent food keep up the good work guys

Lovely food and service is good. My only grips is that it is a bit pricier than others I have been to which are just as good.

Regular visitor to this establishment, the cakes are the best around and I am a regular customer of the homemade delights and larger than normal portions make it a must visit.

I visited by myself this morning (25/10/18) and took a chance on this cafe as I’m not local to the town. The staff were really friendly and the food was lovely! I had the all day breakfast with a latte; both came out quickly and were hot. I was offered a ‘free refill’ on my latte which was even better! Would definitely recommend!

Took my step daughter for lunch. Again wonderfully fresh food.

Looking for a decent full English breakfast - now that the Griffin doesn't serve it any more. Found this just up the road - clean, friendly and very good price for a proper fry-up. Massive cakes available too - must try them next :)

Town centre cafe of long standing... serves great cakes especially! Other snacks available too at very reasonable prices.

We visited between Xmas and New Year, the cafe was warm and friendly, the coffee was good, the cake was excellent (and enormous). Highly Recommended.

Slightly dated cafe with coffee shop feel but cakes are excellent and always a good choice in the cabinet!!

Always a pleasure to go in here. Usually a Saturday but went mid week this time for drink and cake and always friendly staff, good food whatever you decide to have

Quería una rápida, sabroso almuerzo y fiesta piezas nos dio lo que estábamos buscando.

Mañana soleada en loughborough, metimos en piezas de fiesta para uno de sus fantásticos desayunos. Los huevos estaban maravillosamente fresca y las yemas de naranja. Salchichas, bacon, alubias, tomate, tostadas y una taza de té. ¿Qué más se puede pedir. Fue genial. Como para los pasteles en la pantalla. . . Que parecía de ensueño, muy sabrosa. Se vuelve de pronto para un pastel o dos.

Fui a la fiesta de hoy para comer piezas con mis padres y mi hija. No he sido durante muchos años, como ya no vivo localmente. Todo lo que puedo decir es maravilloso cómo la comida y el servicio. Todavía recuerdo tan fabuloso como. Sólo la atención general y la actitud del personal me hizo sentir como en casa. Gracias por un fantástico almuerzo. Xx

The best cafe in Loughborough, always friendly and does the most wonderful bacon rolls ,and cakes are amazing, nowhere else to touch it in the area.

Visitamos otra vez mientras que en Loughborough con la familia mientras golpeando el mercado. No podía resistir un gran pastel con leche y porción. Con los 4 de nosotros fácilmente nos pusieron o pedir sentado en la barra de Rocky Road, Flan de huevo y Pavlova. Las rebanadas eran monstruosos! ! Los deliciosos cafés y los niños, con strawberry permitamos bajamos como tormenta. Fiesta de piezas se está convirtiendo en la razón por la que nos aventuramos en Loughborough. Un auténtico lujo!

Una buena bienvenida a la antigua usanza, agradable taza de café, siempre una delicia, mi local antes de volver a casa. Bien merece una visita.

Este café encantador necesita ser visitado para ser plenamente apreciado! ! Encantador y relajante ambiente, café con leche y tarta para morirse. Hemos visitado piezas fiesta unas cuantas veces y cada vez la comida y el servicio han sido nada de excepcional. ! Nunca visitar o comprar en Loughborough ahora sin un viaje a este lugar encantador. Prepárate sin embargo. . A la hora de elegir qué torta.. . . Todos miran increíble, su decisión un duro! !

Called in for coffee and cake and what a great choice of home made cakes there was.staff very friendly.

Very small place, but always busy, usually somewhere to sit. Outside seating available useful for buggies etc. Been coming for years with the lure of fresh cream scones. Staff been there for years, always friendly. Very accommodating. Highly recommend.

The PP Coffee House is nothing exceptional but the coffee and cakes were fine - and reasonably priced

Came here for an early morning coffee before shopping and exploring Loughborough with my wife. Service was fast and friendly, although coffee was not the best tasting I had had, you get what you pay for! All in all nice place for a quick coffee! Cakes looked good too.

What a good little place this is. All the baked items in the counter looked homebaked as I'm sure they are.I had a slice of strawberry cream cake that was fab, my friends had cream scones, they were pretty big and I was informed about how good they were!The quiche that was displayed looked very good.I think next time I'm in Loughborough at lunchtime I should come and try a piece.Service was good and the prices were very reasonable too.

A small town centre cafe with good friendly staff. Good quality cakes and sandwiches plus good coffee and tea

Recently visited with my young family and our experience was outstanding. Huge cakes, excellent Coffee, friendly staff and well priced! What more could you ask for? I had a Latte and a generous wedge of Egg Custard and it was heavenly!! The Cakes really are the best in Loughborough.

I always pop in here when ever I'm in town. You just can't beat it for quality food and service! Their cakes are to die for!

We came across this lovely place during the Loughborough classic car show and it's brilliant. The service was superb and cakes were excellent. Definitely will go again

perfect home made cakes and lovely coffee. brilliant for a lunch as well as coffee and cake time. Lovely ambiance

We called in here for a bite on the recommendation of some locals. We ordered a jacket potato with chilli and cheese and a cheese and tomato toastie, together with drinks. Both arrived in good time and were delicious. The price was very acceptable too. We will definitely call here again next time we're in the area.

I have now been eating here for a mere two and a half years, that's not long at all because Steve and his parents have been the proud owners for 28 years and it was a cafe for just another 20 years or so before them!The food is simply brilliant, cakes made on the premises, far too many, it's impossible to choose, even the flapjacks are great because they are moist and not dry as a bone as some peoples are. The Polish cake is a child's delight, and their parents love it too! Breakfast is wholesome and warming, no skimping on quantity and the ingredients are fresh not frozen and made locally, you even get a free second drink if you buy one with the breakfast!The menu is not small, and if you can't quite decide there's many who adjust it to their own taste. Try the ham!!!! it's just great quality and a big portion as always.One last thing to say and another reviewer has already said it.... why is Party Pieces not higher on this list for Loughborough? I have done a check, 12 of those above are not even in Loughborough! People in Quorn, Wymeswold, Shsepshed, East Leak, etc don't think they Live in loughborough lol So that means Party Pieces is really number 10!! Get it higher folks, they really deserve it!

I absolutely love this little café! I've been coming here for such a long time with my Mum for lunches. They do great toasties, I normally have a tuna toastie or a bacon toastie, both have very generous servings of filling. The prices are very reasonable for what you get. The interior is nice but a tight squish when it's busy although it doesn't bother me.

Used to live in Loughborough for a few years and visiting at moment. Came here for lunch. Ordered a prawn sandwich with salad. Got a choice of white or brown bread. Sandwich was overflowing with very tasty prawn mayonnaise. Salad was lovely with tomato cucumber and a selection of greens topped off with cress. In all was excellent value for money. Would highly recommend

Party pieces has been around in Loughborough for many years. Their cakes and pastries are amazing.I would always opt for this place rather than its near neighbours who are high street names, for ambience and quality, even though they do not have the obligatory leather settees.

Great value full English breakfast with 3 bacon, 2 sausages, egg of your choice, beans, hash brown, tomatoes and toast. Very pleasant service in a village style cafe. Coffee was great too.

My partner, sister in law, daughter and myself visited Loughborough on the 14th September for a mooch and to look around some shops. After an hour in Primark refreshments became a high priority. We decided to avoid the over hyped ,and over priced, Costa and opt for the pleasently situated Party Pieces. A very friendly, tastefully decorated and delightful cafe situated on Market street Loughborough.We opted for a seat inside, however there was outdoor seating available. We ordered 2 Lattes, 1 Tea, 1 slice of Carrot cake and 2 cream Scones. The order arrived swiftly and promptly and filled our table. The portions are HUGE!! The Carrort Cake was moist and the Scones were to die for!! filled with cream and Jam. The Tea for 1 is generous and the Lattes are massive. It is the bestcoffee i have tasted, just how i like it and much better than Costa, or Gregs for that matter.Exceptional value and a real treat for a lazy Sunday lunchtime visit. We will definaletly be visiting again and again. Steve and the team have made this one of the best places in Loughborough. The fact it is 37 out of 183 in Loughborough is baffling, it needs to be number 1!!On another note myself and my partner visited party pieces for a late breakfast before our Sunday vist which is an absolute steal!! A monsterous breakfast, tea and toast set you up for the day.Thanks to Steve and the team for for such a wonderful service and delicious treats, we will be back asap!

Took my mum for a day trip to Melton Mowbray and Loughborough on Tuesday 15th July, we were dropped off up near the Bell Foundry and strolled in to the town centre. As we strolled along we came across Party Pieces Café. Feeling hungry, we entered and both ordered a Egg Mayo Salad. Everything on the salad was very fresh and it was quite a big salad for a small price. My mum couldn't eat it all, so she put the egg in to the rolls and asked if she could have a bag so she could eat them later. A lovely clean tidy café which I would visit again if in the area.

I've been having coffee/tea/ lunches/cakes here with family & friends for some years now.It's a gem!Fantastic staff, nothing ever too much trouble.For the first time ever today I tried the PAVLOVA... not enough good words to describe the taste sensation, DELICIOUS!Everything homemade, so go and have a lovely treat.

Fancied a change today so we tried here and had a tasty lunch. I can recommend the cheese and broccoli quiche. Service was prompt and friendly and the cakes looked delicious although I was too full to indulge

My 2 year old daughter caused a mess, staff were so kind and calm in helping clean up. They went that extra step to help that you don't get in some busier chain stores.Excellent food and coffee. Highly recommend.

I had an egg and prawn roll with a bit of salad on the side and it cost me £5.10. I mean, that is just ridiculous! That is the price I might pay in Selfridges for food. Whilst the food was very nice I cannot justify paying that amount of money when there are so many cheaper alternatives that are just as nice.

The staff are friendly, the owner is lovely, clean and tidy, food is great value for money, and it's all fresh, all the cakes are made on the premises, we go every week and have never had a bad meal, and we've been going for 20 years, it's nice to see the same staff too as you get to know them and the locals and it's so nice, a lovely little English tea place, I could never walk by, have to go in, even though I can't have it now due to being borderline diabetic their pavlova is to die for, mmmmmmm went in today and saw it starring at me, but I had to resist, my husband had the full English breakfast and he loved it, he couldn't eat it all, great value for money, thank you for all the times you have served us, it's been fantastic and hopefully many more years to come x

We came to Loughborough from America and have visited many coffee shops throughout England. We found Party Pieces to be amongst the best for quality, variety and the staff couldn't do enough for us. You should taste the panini's they are awesome and the lattes are absolutely the best we have ever tasted.

This is one of those places that straddle the border between an old fashioned greasy spoon and a modern continental style coffee bar. It does both with aplomb: the food is fresh, tasty and generous; and the coffee is good. Like others have said, it caters for a wide clientele and is all the better for it. Good value too.Just one caveat: I wish they’d sort the sticky front door out – when your couldn’t-care-less types (and the world is full of them) don’t physically shut it behind them, it sticks open a few inches and it was blowing a icy gale down my wife’s neck. We had to keep getting up to close it.

Iv'e been here on several occasions and enjoyed the food they serve every time, it's good quality and plentiful, the jacket spuds are a must and very filling too, all in all a nice place to have lunch or a well earned coffee break, if you are out and about shopping in Loughborough, go there next time you are out and about, i think you will return again and again making it part of you shopping day..

This is a small cafe in the middle of town. There is a good family atmosphere and they have a great selection of homemade cakes and freshly made sandwiches. The prices are reasonable and I would recommend their generously sized all-day breakfast. Because everything is made to order you need to be prepared to wait and sip your drink and be patient with your raffle ticket when it is busy.

I have visited this cafe many times, and every time it's busy- a great sign. The food is lovely, fresh and tasty (I am a little predicatble and always have the ham salad- huge portion and delicious) The cakes are delicious the only downside is choosing between them! Affordable, friendly and welcoming- easy to see why it's popular.

Having now tried nearly all the cafes in Loughborough, this is now my local!! Just up the street from the town-hall. The staff are all fantastic, it's like visiting a friend for a coffee! The cakes are amazing, a great selection for such a small place, Try the apple and blackberry pie, the pastry is crisp and so much filling! The breakfasts are fantastic large portions and always very hot, and you can even ask for a little less of this and more of that! Order a drink at the same time as your breakfast and you get another free too!! fantastic deal, love the coffee. Everything is spotless, even behind the scenes! Decor is quality too, Steve has made this place true quality! I don't think of it as Party Pieces, should just be called Steve's place!

Forget Costa and walk a little further up the street (Market Place) and enjoy the delights of this cafe. Everything is made fresh on the premises, portions are good and the cakes, oh the cakes! HUGE! and fresh. The fresh cream scone with jam is to die for. They have a menu to suit everyone's tastes. Suggest if you really want indulge - have a hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows on top - heavenly. Recently had a Brie and Cranberry toastie 9unusual and tasty) and my partner had a bacon sandwich mid morning during our Saturday shop (last weekend 19 Jan). Couldn't fault either. Staff are helpful and friendly and nothing is too much bother. In the summer months (when we can get the ones that are not wet!) it's lovely to sit outside and jus have a coffee. Decor is good and everywhere is really clean. Do go - best in Loughborough town centre. Trust me!
