Terracotta The Old Canteen in Charnwood

I am currently devouring my second generous helping of breakfast. Mushrooms on toast. OMG. My eyes want a third but my belly prevails. I am pleasantly stuffed :). What a relaxed location. A warm feeling inspired by all the friendly staff. I felt very comfortable and at home here. Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you.

Great welcome and great food, simple café food in clean surroundings. Good quality ingredients cooked to order,at very sensible prices. How cafes used to be.

We had one half hour to kill so four of us gave the Terracotta a go. I ordered the full breakfast and it was the best breakfast I have had in some time. Everything was as I like it. Well cooked food and good quality.

I've enjoyed many breakfasts here over the last year or so. Always a friendly welcome and plentiful, beautifully cooked food at reasonable prices. You won't be disappointed!

Conrad always gives you a warm welcome and the cafe is always clean and tidy. Breakfasts are lovely and good portions. There is always a good special on! The homemade Cornish pasties are delicious. Also recommend the breakfast cobs! Prices very reasonable.

I love this place!! I recommend to all. A very personable experience, with a supper tasty breakfast. I chose to take the in-laws hear for breakfast who love dining in top quality restaurants and they spoke very highly of their choices.

If you've never been here, you MUST go ! This is the old canteen that the workers of yesteryear from Hathernware used back in the day. I know coz I was one of them ! Now brought back to life to serve this time the general public. Warm and friendly hosts that will serve you any permutation you desire from the menu. The breakfasts are reallllyyyy tasty and at a price you'll like !

Just found this fabulous little cafe. Stopped off for a bacon and egg sandwich which was served on the most delicious cob. I finished up having to have a second one. Really friendly, clean, well worth a visit for those on the road looking for somewhere to stop off for a break. Thank you. I will be back now I have found you.

Eating a very tasty breakfast whilst looking over the fields watching the kestrils looking for theirs made the trip to this hidden gem even better. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, with a homemade special of the day on offer at a very reasonable price, I would certainly recommend this cafe to anyone.

It's well worth calling at this small diner near Normanton on Soar. It's a one-man band, so the choice on the menu is understandably quite limited, but everything is tasty and service is prompt and friendly. For breakfasts, he serves Full English, Vegetarian Breakfast or Breakfast Cobs/Sandwiches - and eggs used are free-range. From 11:30 am, lunch is served - a home-made Daily Special (lasagne when I was there), or Jacket Potatoes, or various Cobs/Sandwiches. Note that he closes at 12 noon on Saturdays. Take-aways are available, and pre-orders by phoning 30 minutes in advance.
