Best cooked breakfast in Rutland. Quality every time! *Update - This was meant for the Potting Shed, the previous café owners.

We love this place. No pretentious menu just good honest food well cooked. Lovely happy staff what more can you ask for? Menu is becoming less varied and interesting.

Food was great , only knocked down a point as there were not many options on the menu The remaining point was lost as the garden centre was really disappointing.

Love the little dog area at this place with dog beds and bowls to use. Lovely and cosy. Often visit during weekdays. Breakfast burger is nice.

This place is such a little gem, the food was outstanding and hot chocolates were 10/10. Wasn’t too busy either which was nice. It’s dog friendly inside as well which was a bonus! Staff were all really lovely as well, very smiley and polite!

We attended the Psychic Supper last week. Not attended an event like this before so didn’t know what to expect. It was a full house which is lovely to see. A great event with some amazing predictions made. The food was either jacket potatoes or chilli and rice in a taco bowl. Drinks are reasonably priced and we were able to squeeze in a pudding. Can’t wait to book for the next event. Thank you.

Probably better than marked .arrived 3-30 ish after school concert pickup .6adults one child . had the feeling that we were a bit late to order food which we had done .food excellent.friends joined us around 4ish two adults 2children .sadly they were not allowed to order food (chips ) for children as cutoff time for food had past ? .so left everyone feeling awkward . .close restaurant time 5pm ..it's so difficult to order food in UK between 4-6 pm in hindsight perhaps shouldn't have ordered. Has lovely lunch previous day ..

Very good, quality food from local suppliers, actually had been to 2 of them before brunch. Excellent size of portions, in fact even had a smaller dinner I was still full. Waffles look superb but had a sausage and bacon ciabatta, and eggs. All very good value. Service was friendly and happy with my large greyhound who did his best to get in the way.

Today was my first visit under the New Management, and upon arrival was impressed by what I saw. Staff immediately acknowledged our arrival and pointed us to a free table, already prepared for the first customers of the day. A very friendly waitress arrived straight away with menus and took our coffee and breakfast food order. The New Village Cafe, had good sensible background music playing which added to the atmosphere. The coffee was good and both our sausage baps arrived quickly were excellent. With no parking difficulties and good opening times, a prompt return visit is likely. Thanks again to our waitress who looked after us!

Coming back after refit and general change round and we weren’t disappointed had the Oakham plater for two with my Father-in-law and it was superb my wife had the Greek salad which was great as well We decided to have a Cider to accompany our meal and my father in law had a lager he likes a drop of lime in it as he’s not a big drinker but had no cordial so had fresh lime instead which was fine The Cider was more of a challenge and being a ex Drayman who’s job was to deliver beer I kind of know my stuff it was a nice vintage Cider which if I was at home and not planning on going anywhere would be fine at 12% ABV it’s a bit strong for a lunch time tipple Overall great place and love the decor

Not the best when I visited on Mothers Day, the beef was very rare and stringy, parsnip was undercooked and singular!!! Mostly cabbage for veg with one carrot and one parsnip. Sorry but not impressed especially as it was quite expensive. I won't be back. I suggest they employ a chef who can cook.

Went there yesterday. Waited 20 mins for table service. Eventually got up and ordered at the front desk. Another 15 mins spent waiting for 2 coffees. The food we ordered also never arrived as was forgotten about so ended up leaving and going somewhere else. And we only went there to support somewhere local. Probably 1st and last time we will go there. As they say, rather stick to places you know as best not to try somewhere new.

3 of us on bikes visited here one chilly damp morning for a pre booked breakfast during one covid times. Phoned the day before to book a table and was greeted by lovely warm friendly staff. Breakfast was delicious and prompt. Cakes looked amazing thou managed to resist. If your a cyclist who’s looking for a stop then you can’t do much wrong here. Or if you just fancy somewhere nice for a cup of tea and cake. Either way whatever takes your fancy this place is worth a visit. And it’s supporting local trade. 👍🏻

I take my gran here often. Staff are so helpful and accommodating. There is accessible parking just outside and you can book a table if you want to, so I always ask for one near the door to save my gran much walking. It is next to a radiator too, so it keeps her toastie in winter. My gran enjoys lunches out and this place is always her choice. Staff are accommodating if we request a smaller meal, as a big plateful puts my gran off eating. Changing daily specials. Homecooked food, generous portions and very well presented. Staff all work hard and always have a welcoming smile. There is some outside seating too and being at the garden centre you can walk around it before or after. Coffee is good and have lovely homemade desserts in the display chiller. Worth a visit!

Food was lovely (cream tea) but service was abysmal, they were very busy (bank holiday monday afternoon) i was literally thrown the scones and when i asked for another plate for my husband she didnt hear me, i then stood staring at the waitress for ages then she realised and said "yeah" and handed me one, she didnt bother asking if anything else we needed! Won't be visiting again! (And your staff need training!!)

We would advise you to book if you are visiting the garden centre. This is not a cafe more of a restaurant in its current format. Cold Overton is close and very good quality and no need to book. Maybe some tables need to be kept for customers using the other facilities.

We had a take out for 6. Loved the food and the 20minute wait was OK with a cold beer, even a complementary beer to take home. Thoroughly recommend this if you fancy an Indian in Oakham

The four of us had a very enjoyable evening here. The owner/ waiters were very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious from start to finish especially the scallop and king prawn main course. Lovely atmosphere on a Friday evening too.
