Piero's Snack Bar in Leicester

Food awful wet toast soggy hash browns bacon not real bacon described as rashers, sausages anaemic miserable service apart from the young girl, won’t be back

Not good food was below average and staff rude . It used to be better shame. Falafel were warmed in the microwave and rest not good

Be aware! Make sure you ask for a payment slip. My bill was for £17.10, but they took £18.00 from my debit card without my permission. A service charge would have shown on the bill, but clearly this was just the owner loading the bill in small increments!

Sorry to be negative but it is quite low quality for high prices. The owner is also very big headed just cos he’s been doing it ages and used to own a kebab shop. His staff are quite rude and short with you and the bacon is actually turkey. It is a glorified greasy spoon cafe but the prices don’t match and I’ve had better service at places way cheaper than here. I’d rather pay a bit more and go to Hollys around the corner

Very nice place, enjoyed my food, not too busy or too big, service was very quick, even with the lunchtime rush. Felt very comfortable and at ease, would recommend all small groups. Food was good and a reasonable price.

Our usual café was busy so we decided to give Piero's a go. I have to say I was not impressed at all. My wife ordered the quesadilla, the filling was virtually none existent, and what was there was cheap processed chicken and tasteless cheese. She didn't enjoy her meal one bit. I had the chicken tikka and mozzarella panini. The side salad and coleslaw were nice but the panini lacked any taste, it was just bland and uninspiring. The only positive thing about our meal was my daughter's chilli burger. She actually enjoyed her meal. As for the service, the waitress could have at least smiled and made us feel welcome. She just banged my plate on the table and waltzed away. I don't think I will bother to grace this establishment with my presence again. But if you don't try you don't know.

Best jacket potato and beans ever..followed by lovely choc and orange cake!!!!

Visited in November 2023. Very lovely cafe and friendly staff. The food was delicious. We had English breakfast and two Moroccan breakfast.

Walked in at 3.40pm Sunday. 3 customers, so not at all busy. 3 staff. I was told to be seated and someone would come over. 10mins later still nothing. 1 staff member opens a can of coke and starts to read a paper, another washing dishes and the 3rd walking around pretending to be busy but not actually doing anything. So I walked out. Needless to say I will never waste my time in there EVER again.

We ordered breakfast. I was intrigued at what the mention described as 'rashers'. It turned out to be what looked like, reconstituted meat in a uniform long oblong. The sausages were tasteless. Overall, not a particularly appetising meal

Ordered food and drink. Drink came and food didn't. They weren't even busy!

We used to be regulars at this spot for many years, always offering good value for money and a nice ambience, good service and nice food. Since it has changed hands it has deteriorated and lost all of its orginal charm. The service is less than expected and the staff are rude. Met a homeless guy outside, who told us that the manager warned him away when a customer sitting outside gave him a fiver. That attitude put me off. When we went in there my Marrakesh Tea was st stuffed with mint leaves that I could not pour it. Before it used to serve quality teas like mint teas. This one doesn't seem to know about how to make such things anymore. My friend's cup was stained with what seemed to have been lipstick. Whatever it was it shows that utensils and cups are not being washed properly. No, since this place has changed management it is no longer the same and its service has gone downhill fast. I will not be returning to this place to offer my former patronage. Piero's - you've lost a good customer.

Love it here, great for a Sunday breakfast

Have used Pieros since it opened, best coffee in town, try dirty chai for a different experience, lovely

A great lunch option with a typical menu of soups, sandwiches and jacket potato. Go early before they run out of jacket potatoes if that's what you have your heart set on! Order and pay at the counter and everything is brought to you. Nice clean loos at the rear.

Really nice little cafe. Food was yummy 🙂

Lovely little cafe with excellent food and good service

I have used this Cafe for years as I like to support local the food was good however the staff could be friendlier

Lovely friendly staff. Coffee strong but not bitter - perfect

Cheap price but you get what you paid for. I ordered poached eggs with avocado and the first time I got the order, the eggs were well over cooked and were like boiled eggs. There was no butter on the bread and it looked really dry. They gave 4 small slices of avocado on the side. Not impressed.

As you can see from The picture it looks and tastes amazing spinach and feta cheese omelette with brown toast Well worth a visit on a Saturday, can’t fault it. I’ve been coming here on and off last few years and since the first time to today it’s always been so good. Staff are great always

Nice little cafe for a drink and sandwiches

The tables were dirty . The staff were not friendly. I won't come back again.

Good food at reasonable prices with pleasant staff.

£5.60 for this I no cost of living and that but what the he'll? Should of cooked it myself at home 1 pound for bread 1 pound for mushrooms and 20p gas! Never in my life will I go here again the lady wasn't very confident In her job. I've worked catering for 10 years and this is joke

Hands down the best baklava I have ever eaten!

I love supporting local business and we've been visiting this place me and my wife for many, but we were somewhat disappointed with our visit and now decided not to return in further 😔.

I popped in this morning to have coffee and a toasted teacake.....both delicious and served with a smile!

It's more a wine bar than snack bar. Really good Italian wine and food, plus the best service

我們食的時間大約是下午茶時間，餐廳內人客不多，我們都櫃檯點食物，回坐位就可以了。 餐廳環境不是煇煌的，只是平實和舒服，感覺到一種平靜的感覺。 我們點了公司三文治(Club Sandwich)和蝦肉牛油果捲餅(Prawn & Avocado Wrap)，兩樣都做得很好，用料多，雖然味道有點淡，但很好吃；飲品方面，Latte 和 black Coffee 都有熱度，咖啡味道不酸，合我的口味，濃度適中。 服務員態度是好的，價格方面，十分親民，我相信我會再次光顧，或者介紹朋友的。

Sad offering 😕 Should have taken my custom elsewhere

Three of us visited on a Saturday morning, seated promptly. Very nice food and served hot!. Efficient staff. Good price. The owner, realising he had over charged us, came to the table and apologised and gave us the correct change. Will be back next time we are in Leicester

Really lovely cafe with superb food ... Choc Orange cake was lovely as was Chai latte. Super location to people watch and just chill.

great price, delicious food and lovely staff!

Lovely omelette and thick good quality toast. Good latte. Reasonably priced.

Food is not the best and overpriced.

Lovely breakfast. We had a breakfast wrap and poached eggs with advocado. Both tasty. Quick efficient service. Open on a Sunday.

Excellent food, well priced and good service. Would recommend a visit

Ordered a breakfast. Very average. Not real bacon . Egg was cooked to a crisp. Sausages were a bang average catering sausage. A value breakfast with cheap ingredients. No toilet paper in loos. Staff were nice and the location was lovely

This café is located in the historic old town part of Leicester on a pedestrianised street. We very much enjoyed sitting on the outside tables at the front. We ordered two flat whites which cost £5.20, unfortunately they were quite large and weak.

كموقع جميل بالسنتر والاكل يعتبر عادي

In the heart of the interesting old centre of Leicester. Little or no traffic. Bustling with students, pedestrians etc, this neat relaxed little cafe is a good spot for passing time with a crossword, the paper, a book or a chinwag with old mates.

We discovered this little gem in October last year. Had a great breakfast early on a Sunday morning with a superb, freshly ground coffee. We visited again this April and actually walked a mile out of our way to take friends there for lunch. Another great visit with more superb coffee 😁. Staff are great, food is tasty, our friends enjoyed their smoothies! Will visit again next time we're in Leicester.

Delicious breakfast and the freshly squeezed orange juice is absolutely amazing.

their food and customer service is always so great. this is the go-to place for brunch for me and my best friend

Food not great.. Staff nice.. But very basic below par food and drink

Staff did not seem very friendly, as if they didn't want to be there. Which is a shame because the food was nice but slightly over priced

Great coffee and bacon sandwich. Very clean and tidy.

Lovely breakfast, definitely would return

Bland food, not great service either. To be balanced that is the first time it has been like that.

Really good breakfast. Friendly staff. All very clean

Best coffee I had in Leicester, the staff are so welcoming

Nice quiet place with the family to have breakfast and lunch

Nice people and a very nice set up, good choice on the menu and very good value for money, had the soup which was really nice, filling but not overly. Would highly recommend.

Great coffee and snacks, delicious ice cream.

Expensive for what I got toasted sandwich came with no garnish crisps or anything very disappointing.

Beautiful hidden gem. Lovely food and wide variety. Exquisite milkshakes, very reasonable prices. Friendly staff, 10/10.

Lovely staff really nice coffee and food

Cosy place to enjoy some tasty treats, full English breakfast is a must, chicken pasta is always delightful and my younger daughter enjoyed the grilled chicken wrap, they also do a tasty chicken burger! Moroccan mint tea took me back to Marakesh! Service was pleasant.

Very good and excellent service

Lovely local coffee and lunch place, pleasent service with excellent food and coffee. I keep coming back, I love it.

AMAZING takeaway breakfast. I would probably say the best in Leicester. Everything was hot when it arrived and both my and I enjoyed each and every mouth full. Can't wait for next time!! Well done guys! Will recommend you!

Great food, good prices, lovely atmosphere.

Great coffee, very reasonable price

Lovely independent coffee shop in Leicester, clean, helpful staff, quick service

Delicious food, good service and reasonable prices. All that and it's one of the few cafés open on a Monday morning.

Tasteless room temperature coffee

I always have the Falafel wrap, its lovely

Great food, well priced, poor experience with the service. We received the first part of our order on time, then we waited for sometime for a slice of cake that was ready in the fridge, one of the drinks we ordered was brought to us at the end of our session. The server at the counter kept nodding her head when she couldn't hear my order clearly which I felt was rude, and when following up with her about our tea she replied ' you can see we are busy'.

My go-to spot to get the fastest, quickest and cheapest falafel wrap. Lovely owner and a good take-out service.

Normally great service here, but huffed when we ordered and then shunted out at closing time. Not going back here again!

Good coffee, appears to have changed owners recently so unable to comment on staff and quality of food . However the sandwich I ordered was freshly made and enjoyable as was the coffee, would call again..

Great smooth, frappes are not good though but the staff are really friendly

always the same high quality service and delicious falafel wraps. i have being having good food ,super cappuccinos and a wonderful atmosphere. try it yourself and you will make your regular place. alone or with family/friends.

Overpriced, underwhelming food and staff that look like they're so bored to be in this place. I should've known from the dated decor going in before trying this place... 'Panini' was two normal tasteless bread slices toasted, fillings so-so, no inclusive sides, charged at £5.50! Sweet fruit slice was flavorless. Coffee was so-so... everything just lacked effort, disappointed I went here after walking through alternatives The Lanes - would not recommend.

Friendly service and good value

We've been here both when it was takeaway only through covid restrictions and recently when we could eat in. Can not fault the food and our daughter likes it too which is important. The only criticism is we didn't see a child's menu so had to pay adult prices. Hence the 4 not 5 stars.

This is a very cozy place, might be one of my fav in Leicester. Will definitely go back again for a Brie & Cranberry Panini! 💛

Very nice place, lovely staff. Went an extra mile to find me a table. Tasty food and cofee. Definitely will visit again.

Staff is nice, venue seems clean. Worst cappuccino I’ve ever had in my life

Very pleasant. Social distancing. Food good. Drinks good. Staff very conscious of covid and cleanliness.

Great service 👏 highly recommended

Been going here for years with my mum and I've never had bad food always go above and beyond by asking if you want things adding etc to your meal. Just had a takeout due to covid and still great service and food. Keeping going!

Absolutely amazing breakfast. Was struggling to find a good halal breakfast spot in the city centre and purely by chance I found this place and just wow! Extremely helpful and friendly staff and an exceptionally clean place. Would definitely recommend this to anyone.

Nicest lunch I've ever had I think, I had a wrap, hummus, olives and falafel, it was lovely, my daughter had pasta which was very nice as well, I had to eat some of it because it was too much but I didn't mind, she enjoyed it anyway because she is one very fussy six year old, will definitely be coming back soon!

Staff were looking away and ignoring when called, very unwelcoming. Food was disappointing, seemed like my sandwich was literally thrown together and sent out, my partner got a chicken tikka panini which has no chicken tikka sauce and when he asked for sauce he was told that they don't have any although we could see them all in the kitchen from where we were sitting. All of this could easily been avoided if staff were actually interested in their job but clearly that was not the case. Huge waste of time and money, would not recommend.

Allways good food with good prices

Lovely food and good service, as always.

Lovely food, great choice and friendly staff

We ate here for breakfast, I ordered a sausage baguette but I couldn’t eat it, bread was not fresh and poor quality sausage which was served luke warm.

This was my first visit to anywhere since lockdown started. All social distancing in place. Felt totally safe. This was not at the expense of good food and good service. Good as always. Looking forward to my next visit.

Excellent breakfast feast and great service.

Good selection of lunchtime meals. Quick service.

Good cafe with the usual menu items. The menu has some more unique items such as Moroccan breakfast choices. Moroccan tea served in an individual traditional pot and glass ro drink from. So have the usual cafe food or try something different. Made fresh with some sandwiches made ready to go for take out lunch options. A regular for me now as I know of no other place to get this kind of breakfast.

The food is alright but it's definitely a great place for a little hang out - and the place is situated at a beautiful location! The staff were friendly and has a great service.

Good food, gorgous hot chocolate and pleasant relaxing atmosphere. Staff are friendly and welcoming. One of Leicester's best kept secrets!

Popped in for some quick food - for jackets, paninis and nachos, they serve wholesome food in good portions and in a timely way.No frills but just what you need when you’re feeling peckish during your shopping.The meat is Halal which was a bonus for ha too!

Very average but expensive with small portions. £10.90 for some chicken pasta and a cappucino. I always ask for the coffee to not be too hot and yet it always comes boiling hot.

Excellent food. Friendly staff. I would recommend Piero to everybody.

After a busy afternoon at the King Richard III Museum and the Cathedral, this was an ideal place for refreshing tea, and hot lactose-free chocolate, with delicious cake. So pleasant to relax in a quiet cafe, and enjoy the atmosphere of the Lanes.The service was cheerful and accommodated our quirky diets Thank you.
