Petite Chouette Cafe Bar in Hinckley and Bosworth

Exceptional. We hired Paul from the Petite Chouette to cater for a full weekend for a family get together, including a 4 course private dining experience on the Saturday evening. The food was fabulous and Paul was a delight. He offered a selection of menu option as requested and catered for our culinary needs. The highlight was the private dining experience which also included wine pairings. Paul was knowledgeable and happy to answer all our questions. The food was amazing. We will definitely use the Petite Chouette again and after tasting the exceptional wine and cheese, I will be ordering a monthly subscription box.

Enjoyed a night out at this small cafe bar,excellent food well presented,relaxed atmosphere.Do try it ,the ciders not bad either.

Little gem of a café - lovely food, cosy atmosphere and very friendly service. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Très bon restaurant pour le déjeuner, excellents produits et très agréable service ! Mention spéciale pour les toasts aux œufs pochés

Hands down my favourite place to eat on a Friday night! Absolutely love everything about this place - the food, the wine, the atmosphere, the owners. A little gem in the centre of Hinckley. Would recommend to everyone ❤️

Really lovely late breakfast with the wife. I had the croque monsieur which really tasty & my wife had the goats cheese baguette which she said was great too, the staff were friendly and the whole place is very clean and inviting, I’d recommend to anyone.

I was lucky enough to visit with a group of an evening and had a set menu. The food was delicious and the owners were great hosts who were clearly knowledgable and passionate about the food they were serving as well. I don’t drink alcohol but got the impression that the drinks menu was well curated. This teeny tiny jewel on Regent St offers something different, which is always welcomed in Hinckley and I will definitely be returning to sample more of the delights of this local, independent business. Bonne chance with your venture-you deserve every success.

I went on a foodie meet here. Food was delicious, french cheeses selected to perfection, chicken main was out of this world and lemon desert to finish. Coffee was nice there too. It was a bit of a squeeze for 17 of us but the owners were more than accommodating and by the time I left I felt like I'd been sitting quaffing wine at a jeet in France with them rather than Hinckley! Cant wait till my next visit as I will be back!! Asta la vista.

Went for cheese and wine last night. The food was lovely, gorgeous choice of cheeses with crackers and French bread and relish. Lovely relaxed atmosphere and the hosts so welcoming and knowledgeable. The cafe is small with a great atmosphere and the wines were chilled and delicious. I will definitely be back for more!

A delightful small cafe bar serving great food and good coffee. Been several times during the day and expectations are always exceeded. Intend to try a Friday evening as soon as I can.

I wanted to try somewhere new for an overdue night out with a friend and saw a number of bistro nights advertised for Petite Chouette so thought we’d try it out. The cafe is lovely, the owners Ali and Paul are so, so welcoming and friendly and the food was delicious! The dessert was one of the nicest I’ve ever had! Perfect atmosphere, will definitely be a regular visitor from now on! Thank you Ali and Paul for a fantastic evening xx

Ett trevligt och gemytligt litet ställe med stor personlighet. Gott och vällagad, visserligen liten och enkel, meny

Lovely inside although the bus stop just outside the window is not the greatest view. The menu was quite limited and on the pricier side with not many specials. The food was ok although I think it could try to be more French authentic, perhaps bread (baguette) should be served with food like in France? Drinks were lovely and very nice cakes too

Fantastic Saturday morning breakfast. Excellent selection for everyone including vegetarians, the health conscious and the not so health conscious. Delicious coffee! Friendly and welcoming service. Lovely family run business with an authentic theme. We will be back!

This is how eating out should be! Great food, lovely atmosphere, great hospitality with a personal experience. We were made to feel really special. About as far removed from the identikit chains as you can imagine. A really straightforward product done well and with care and attention. Cannot wait to battle with everyone else for a table at the next available evening.

This is the first time we've been here. Thought we would give it a go was not dissapointed. The staff are friendly, welcoming and attentive. The food was fantastic. Will definitely be going again.

I went here for a fondue evening & the food was delicious and staff were attentive, friendly & welcoming. Would return to try more of their food!

Had coffee and croissants here on Saturday morning and was impressed with this café, which is one of the few fair trade cafes in Hinckley.

A gem of a place hidden in plain site, lovely food, friendly, polite, and attentive staff. It is a small cafe so could easily fill up but there is outdoor seating which is undercover.

This is a lovely little cafe, very friendly, only helped with the family vibe going on. Service is first class as is the quality of food and drink. Highly recommended and will definitely be visiting again soon!

Ah oui! At last, a decent 2 cups of coffee in Hinckley. A long, long time since I have had - in the UK - a café prepared with such consumate professionalism.

I have visited the Petite Chouette Cafe Bar a few times. I always find it relaxing and welcoming. The proprietors are very friendly and knowledgeable of french cousine. Having visited France several times over the years , i have a soft spot for french food and the french way of life. They always welcome me and my dog is always welcome too, fabulous place to relax, chat and indulge in fine food and wine.

me and my girlfriend go almost every week. the soup is amazing, having tried the vast vast majority of them they are the most wonderful flavors, especially the roasted squash.

Only called in for a quick coffee but was impressed by the delicious menu, genuine ingredients and the extremely friendly and efficient service !! Will definitely be back for more!

My husband and I popped in to Petite Chouette for a light lunch during a rare visit to Hinckley and we weren't disappointed. The cafe is immaculate and beautifully furnished. The food was absolutely beautiful. All freshly made to order and looks amazing. I had the soup of the day (crab bisque) and my husband had the croque madame. He also managed a salted caramel cheesecake from the selection of patisserie that was available. Service was exceptional, friendly and knowledgeable without feeling rushed or pushy. Less than £20 for lunch for two, two coffees and a dessert is a real bargain for such a lovely lunchtime experience. Thanks so much, we will be back and we'll be bringing friends!

A little gem of a place. Lovely coffee, chocolate, and pot of tea followed by yummy home made soup and crusty baguette. Just what was needed! Very friendly and great ambience. Definatley pop in again or book for a special evening meal.. menus look brilliant!

Always feel welcomed, staff friendly and love the wine! Homemade soups and pate plus the best poached eggs. We just keep coming back.

I have been to Le Petite Chouette on three separate occasions since it opened, for three separate purposes; A breakfast croissant and hot chocolate, a lunchtime warm baguette and most recently for one of their bistro evenings. All of them exceeded expectations, and chef Paul's talent in bringing lovely French cuisine to middle England seems to know no bounds. The whole of the staff bring a fantastic friendly service, and I'll be returning plenty of times in 2019.

Had such an amazing time at the monthly cheese and wine evening with some friends.

I’ve been here a few times with my sons to enjoy a hot chocolate and cake (delish) and the bistro nights with friends and it’s always a real treat. The food is always amazing and the owners are so friendly, there’s nowhere else like it. Highly recommended for food, atmosphere and originality. We’ll be back soon.

Ate at petite chouette last night at a monthly cheese and wine evening. Owner presented the cheeses to us and was very knowledgeable about them and was very passionate about the restaurant and the food.

Have been several times for lunch, breakfast and for their bistro nights. The food is incredible and very good value for money and the family who own the cafe are so lovely. A welcoming, cosy and delicious cafe, cannot recommend this enough and I’m very grateful for this addition to Hinckley!

An excellent stop off for coffee and cakes. The coffee is brilliant, flat white. The cakes aren't cheap but are very delicious. The owners are so friendly and welcoming.

I am a big cheese and wine lover and this was my second visit to this little gem in my local town.

A fantastic little cafe / bar / bistro that sits perfectly within Hinckley.

Delicious moules and friendly atmosphere. And a wine education ! Vietnamese mussels were super tasty, in fact so tasty that one of us drank the broth from the moules pot! Lovely Vouvray to accompany the food. Yum yum

We managed to secure a table at this small but perfectly formed restaurant.

We reserved a table for their Ooh La La! French afternoon tea on the basis of having previously called in for an excellent lunch.

Passed by whilst shopping and called in for a visit glad we did the food was outstanding soup of the day was out of this world. The owner was so friendly and attentive I would highly recommend everyone visits. They even had a bowl of water for doggy visitors. We will definitely go and visit again

Visited for Saturday lunch on 28th June. The owners were clearly passionate about their business and their food and it showed. Delicious food, nice atmosphere and spotlessly clean. We will be back.

This was the first time we've visited and it certainly won't be the last. The food was delicious and Paul came over to explain the origin of the cheeses we had ordered. And to finish off the tarte au chocolate was amazing.

Petite Chouette has been recommended and I couldn’t fault it. Varied menu, lovely food and drinks. Staff extremely polite. I’ll be back the next time I’m in Hinckley.

Had the most amazing evening at this little gem. The food and wine were absolutely to die for.

I have been here a few times and it’s a lovely addition for Hinckley. The staff are friendly and very knowledgable about their food and wine. On one of my visits I had a chocolate tart which was amazing and the bistro night I attended was great! The food is delicious and the service is wonderful.

Dropped in for lunch, my first visit. Menu looked good but they did a special vegetarian Croque Monsieur for me, which was delicious. Can definitely recommend the citron tarts for desserts. Very friendly staff.

Relatively new french themed cafe that delivers on high expectations. The authentic food and drink on offer fits the bill for a morning coffee (you won't be able to avoid a cake or biscuit) - or a leisurely lunch. The menu is not extensive but what is available is good and they are always happy to adapt and make you something you like. This is just the sort of Cafe to reinvigorate Hinckley.

What a nice little place to have a chilled out lunch or coffee break. The cakes are delicious- no good if you're on a diet ;)

Popped in for coffee and cake. Lovely coffee - lemon tart was superb. A tad expensive though. Had to pay an extra 50p for cream! Owners were lovely.

We have been here a few times and it never fails to disappoint. Wonderful friendly owners who make you feel like part of the family.

This is a little gem of a place. The coffee is superb and I had the soup which was amazing, really tasty. It was broccoli soup with blue cheese mixed through. I will definitely be back

Last night four of us went for the cheese and wine evening and we were not disappointed. Simply outstanding! Quality ingredients, knowledgeable owners - we had a lovely evening and will definitely be back. Thank you!!

Loved the chicken and root vegetable soup, the best I’ve ever had. The croque monsieur is also highly recommended. Lovely friendly staff. We’ve already been twice.

Situated on a Main Street, yet retaining the quiet relaxed atmosphere of a French village, the owner welcomes old and new customers with the knowledge and friendship of a genuine 'patron'. We visited one lunchtime and enjoyed an exsquisite baked Camembert with crunchy bread and crisp celery and carrot. We added a side saled with the chef's own French dressing to complement this lunchtime repast. It was absolutely delicious and we shall look forward to an early return, hopefully to enjoy one of their monthly cheese and wine evenings.

I visited the cafe for the first time this week for a coffee. We were met with a warm welcome and enjoyed a cappuccino. Can't wait to go back for another coffee and to try one of the delicious cakes on display. A lovely feel to the place we could have been in Paris!!

I visited here today with friends and was not disappointed it’s a very quaint little cafe with very friendly staff, lovely food and delightful wine. The owners have obviously gone to a lot of trouble in sourcing great quality food and drink! We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend trying it out for yourself!

My wife and I called in with our daughter on Saturday and had a fabulous lunch. The atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming. Alison and Paul will certainly look after you if you call in. I would recommend the baked Camembert!

Recently opened in the middle of Hinckley, and a welcome and refreshing change from all the Italian establishments that seem to be popping up on every corner, this little jewel just begs a visit.

Well what an excellent addition to Hinckley! We have visited a few times now, the croissants are amazing! Very friendly and definitely worth a visit. Recommended for all of the family to visit.
