The Loquacious Baker in Hinckley and Bosworth

Love this little coffee shop. The cakes a delicious and not too sweet. Looking forward to their new large premises opening. Nice that they are dog friendly too.

We were looking for a special birthday cake for a 60th birthday party. When we spoke to Ange with our initial ideas, she was extremely helpful, listening to what we wanted and making suggestions. She made the time to talk in person, even though we could see that she was incredibly busy. Ange also offered expert advice on cake size and portion size. We finally agreed on two eight inch cakes, given our numbers, with the flavour of raspberry and chocolate ganache with a butter cream finish on the outside. Edible images were placed on the side of the cakes, which we were able to choose, adding a personal touch. We also ordered 12 gluten-free and dairy-free cupcakes. The cake and cupcakes looked amazing and were absolutely delicious! So many of our guests commented upon this. The taste and appearance were stunning! The gluten-free and dairy-free cupcakes tasted exactly like the main cakes! Guests noted that also. The price was extremely good value. Thank you so much Ange! Amazing work and a flawless experience! We would unreservedly recommend Loquacious Baker to our family, friends and….everyone for any future projects!

Stopped off here en route south. Easy parking nearby and what a gem of an independent cafe!! Amazing food, delicious coffee and welcoming staff! We will be back!! Amazing!

The food was amazing, the staff were very friendly and attentive. Highly recommended.

A special thank you to the two ladies who served me and my friend yesterday and were happy to go through all the vegan substitutions on the menu. The granola bowl was wonderful and I look forward to coming back soon.

Lovely local coffee shop Highly recommend

Excellent little coffee shop. Drinks are amazing, customer service even better. Love these small independent coffee shops. Way better than the bigger chains that offer you low quality products at extortionate prices. Love the atmosphere and the pleasant customer service from staff. Was passing by for a meeting, but if I ever was passing by again I would love to go back again. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic food, coffee and staff

Can’t thank you enough The. Breakfast was absolutely superb. Customer service was excellent. Definitely recommend to anybody who would like to go for a quick snack or just a drink definitely coming again.

I love coming here whenever I’m in Burbage. Highly recommend this local cafe. Good quality coffee and food! Lovely place to read a book, or catch up with a friend.

Always good food and friendly service.

Came in here everyday during our short visit to see the in-laws. Really lovely coffee and amazing cakes 😋 nice to see a place like this in the village.

Superb smooth coffee and delicious meal

Fantastic coffee and great service.

A wonderful atmosphere, very welcoming and the food was great! The sandwhich (vegetarian, full of flavour), carrot cake (with swiss meringue buttercream, my favourite) and the coffee was divine. Yet to try the scone. Looking forward to my next visit!

Best coffee in the area!! Love how they are dog friendly too

We booked an afternoon tea for two. It was freshly prepared on our arrival within twenty minutes. Including scones jam of choice and cream. Not to forget the ample selection of freshly hand crafted cakes. An excellent standard of afternoon tea, worth every penny. Every consideration was given to choice and allergies.

We have been for lunch, delicious sandwiches, lively hot choc,Supper Club the food is amazing good wine.thankyou.

We had the breakfast muffin and it was delicious. So tasty and very generous portions. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. The coffee was also super tasty. We’ll be back often. Thank you for a fabulous brunch.

We popped in for lunch in the run upto Christmas. Very busy but they made room for us and we had a lovely lunch! Food and drinks were delicious, and staff very friendly. Would highly recommend 😊

Just tried their weekend supper menu, ordered the Birria Tacos and J.F.C. Never had food as good as this and it being so local means I'll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!

What a lovely place ! If we ever fancy an afternoon tea, this would be my first port of call. The sandwiches are great and the cakes are just amazing. You can also just pop in for a coffee or a cake, which I have done quite a few times with mates and they have all loved the cakes as well 👍Added to that the owner is absolutely lovely ! Certainly worth a visit, if you are in the area !!

On a wet and dreary Sunday (23/09), this cafe I found serves the best bacon ciabatta to date, topped off with home made brown sauce which is crazy good!!. A lovely little cafe serving quality food. Staff are friendly and service is 10/10. Recommended 5* 👍🏽🙏🏽

Amazing coffee, friendly staff.

Darling café with amazing coffee!

Purtroppo non posso bere il caffè, ma ho bevuto un buonissimo (anzi il migliore) latte di avena con cacao in Uk! Non vedo L ora di prendere altri! Bisogna sempre supportare e dare fiducia alle piccole attività, soprattutto se lavorano con serietà, con buoni prodotti e un accoglienza del cliente incredibile! provalo e non rimarrai deluso!!!

What a find.. A delicious impromptu brunch.. Super food.. Fabulous coffee and such a friendly welcome.. Thank you..

I am a regular customer The Loquacious Baker, and in the three years I have been visiting the standard of product has been consistently outstanding. Notwithstanding this, the coffee shop has become a real pillar of the community, with every visit, being an opportunity to integrate and meet new people. I couldn’t recommend more! It’s a Burbage must-do!!

Visited this coffee shop multiple times when I’m local to the area but unfortunately they are progressively more rude each visit. I want to support local businesses but without basic customer service I can’t see myself returning to this establishment.

Fabulous little independent cafe! Small but obviously very popular as they had another group waiting outside for a table. We only had two wait 5 minutes. Coffee, brunch food and brownies were absolutely delicious (I especially liked the homemade ketchup). A really special place where the service was friendly and even other customers were welcoming and chatty! Would definitely revisit!

Fantastic lunch as a stopover from the M69

Absolutely lovely. Excellent coffee and one of the best fruit scones....

Such a beautiful little cafe with the loveliest owner! Had my baby shower here yesterday and the sandwiches, cakes, scones and wide selection of drinks were absolutely delicious! I would 100% recommend anyone looking for an afternoon tea to visit - everything was beautifully presented, freshly prepared and divine! Thank you so much for such a lovely experience 😊

Stopped by this place on the way to Manchester. What a hidden gem! The cafe is on the small side but clean and well appointed. Also, the food was fantastic! We had a bacon ciabatta and a hummus and avo sandwich. The cakes looked great as well although we didn’t try any. Coffee was proper speciality. 100% recommended if you are in the area.

Food was fantastic and extremely good service, polite and friendly going the extra mile. Everything was very clean and well presented, highly recommend.

Really good place to visit with good coffee and food served in very smart matching cups etc.

This used to be such a pretty little cafe. Very cosy and comfy with lovely food. I hadn't been since the covid lockdowns so it was a bit of a shock. Gone are the little tables and chairs - replaced by box benches painted white (not even a cushion to add a bit of padding) and basic tables. No longer somewhere I'd want to go to impress a friend. I popped in with a friend while we where out walking for a cuppa. The teas where served in plastic mugs with no handles. At £2:60 each that's shocking. Tea should always be served in proper crockery or better yet bone china cups. I wouldn't recommend it.

incredible food, drinks and homemade cakes. beautiful environment and lovely staff

Best independent coffee shop around by miles

This place was such a little gem to find! The brunch was amazing and the brownies… my goodness were super delicious. The service was great and although it was small, we didn’t feel rushed and enjoyed slowly sipping on our coffee and teas! We will be definitely returning!

Birthday treat for me with friends. Had the French toast with caramelized bananas with a delicious latte, absolutely amazing. Definitely recommend for a brunch or light lunch.

Gorgeous little cafe with excellent coffee and fantastic bakes. Couldn’t believe how many brownie, blondie and cake flavours they had on offer for such a tiny place. (The baker was more than happy to talk me through them all or I’d still be there trying to decide!) I drove half an hour to get here and will definitely be back for more soon.

Delicious food - lunch & sweet treats - and great coffee. Very friendly & welcoming and a bonus that it’s dog friendly too. We will be back soon!

Lovely little cafe with great coffee, tasty sausage rolls and an incredible selection of cakes. The owner was very friendly and clearly passionate about what she does and being part of the community. There's no WiFi though, so if you're going to work from here you'll have to hotspot from your phone.

Want the best cappuccino in the world well visit here! The food is made with love and passion and everything from breakfast, to the soups to the posh fish ginger sandwiches have been a total treat! I ordered 8 specialised cupcakes for a friends BIG birthday, they were truly amazing and were decorated with fresh flowers, I chose the flavour and the colours of the flowers, my friend was totally blown away! Afternoon tea was my latest experience.... wow!!!! I have been very lucky to experience a few of these over my years but this was truly the very best. The freshness, the variety, the amount and listening to Angie enthusiastically explain each item and then eating it was a sheer joy! My friend’s face who is vegetarian and coeliac was joyful, Angie had made everything gluten free and her plate was identical to a non gluten free. Angie thank you for making me so welcome on all my visits if I’m by myself with friends or my girlies.

Absolutely lovely staff & amazing cakes. Went for afternoon tea for two and couldn't be happier with the service and fantastic food.

Helpful and courteous staff, nice coffee and cakes. 😀

Beautiful Coffee shop, friendly staff, amazing selection of cakes & hot drinks. great little place for a pit stop or even a breakfast. Really recommend!!

Banga after banger after banger, cant comment on the pizza but I imagine it tantalises the taste buds

The best thing I could say about this place, is that I cannot wait to return. I went in for a coffee, ended up buying two amazing brownies and NEARLY staying for lunch. It's only a small place but there is a lovely authentic atmosphere, friendly service and excellent coffee. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area or even if you are not.

Friendly boss, staff and fellow customers! Delicious fresh food, coffee that packs a punch and extra naughty milkshakes.

Tasty food, pretty premises and friendly owner. Answered all our awkward dietary questions with knowledge and proactively suggested changes to her dishes for us. Great customer service! We went out of our way to come here - very glad we did :(

Very welcoming 😊 great sandwiches and cakes

Ordered brownies and cupcakes for my brother's birthday who lives locally so he could collect. They look delicious, great service and a happy brother! ( Shame I'm not there to share!)

Great sandwiches, but the Mince Pies, Wow!

Gorgeous cakes this morning on our walk.

Great place to go tasty cakes and snacks great coffee. I had the cream tea delicious.

Amazing food & friendly service..always happy to support local businesses by eating 🍰.

Literally couldn’t have been more lovely - they stayed open a little later to accommodate us - we had a beautiful Prosecco Afternoon tea- which was up there with the best afternoon tea I’ve ever had!!! Sandwiches fresh and delicious, crisp salad, DELICIOUS quiche, lovely scone and the cakes and chocolate Mousse were all delicious!! We couldn’t finish it and had to pack it up to bring home and still couldn’t help but get a few extra things to take home to try (oink oink) heeded something special for a special girls engagement celebration and the Loquacious Baker didn’t disappoint! Thank you so much ❤️

love little shop, and a good cortado

My friend treated us to an afternoon tea for four and it was the best one I have ever had. Sad that we could not eat at the cafe just yet as the owner is very friendly and welcoming and I am sure would have made it a memorable experience . Despite that everything was amazing, especially the cakes and the scones and well actually the sandwiches as well. They were traditional with a twist that made them interesting yet not too fancy. The scones, which I had to take home, were big yet light and were still fresh and tasty the next day. And now to the cakes, oh the cakes, they were fabulous. No repeat flavours and big enough to share so that everyone could taste all of them if required. My particular favourite was the Bakewell one followed by the Snickers one. I have previously visited the cafe for a takeaway and had a coffee that was lovely and had my first experience of a Duffin (cross between a doughnut and a muffin) which was really tasty and took the best of both originals and made something even better. Good luck can't wait for you to open and to come in and try some of the savoury dishes that I have seen on the website..

Just enjoyed their afternoon tea. Whilst you can have it delivered, we just picked it up 😀 We thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. Some lovely teas and superb cakes/scones. Added to that the owner was really lovely and friendly when we collected it. Well worth a visit !

Quiet and intimate little cafe. Only five tables but really nice cakes

We were in Burbage came across this place, what a great find, great service, superb food, it is nice to find a place this small and unspoilt by commercialism. If you are in Burbage try this place you will not be disappointed. A note to the owners do not change, do not get bigger, you are doing great

Lovely venue really good options especially vegetarian also worth checking out for the evening events they have

Lovely, friendly staff; beautiful food; great coffee, gorgeous cakes and cute surroundings. Go try it!

Some of us met here for coffee and enjoyed the table in the window. The toasted teacakes were delicious and there was plenty of butter. The coffee is hot and tasty, while the bacon sandwich tasted good too. Everyone was very pleasant serving us and the place was popular with locals too.

Went in here for a pre-booked afternoon tea - they have many different sizes but the better half had booked the largest. Oh. My. God. It was huge - everyone (well the other 4 tables) all turned as this multi-tiered behemoth of an afternoon tea came out - with some partners instantly disappointed at the two tier effort in front of them we began to consume. Freshly made and very tasty, nothing we had disappointed, and we left (very) full and on a equivalently sized sugar rush. Anything unfinished can be taken home in a box and we did so. Highly recommend the biggest afternoon tea - if you're disappointed in it there's something wrong with you!

Small but lovely cakes. They also have a pudding club and other events throughout the year. Worth checking out for sure.

With only 5 tables it’s not surprising that it’s a chatty cafe altho loquacious is maybe a bit ott?!! Cakes look nice altho always wary when in a small hot space how fresh they will stay. Nothing really distinctive but nice for casual lunch.

A touch expensive but worth every penny. Called in for breakfast and was certainly glad I did. Quality produce used, plentiful quantity wise and very tasty. A great addition to the area as it was getting difficult to find a quality breakfast in the Hinckley/Burbage area.

Busy little cafe. Called in for a quick coffee (a bit on the weak side) and toasted tea cake.

Great for a quick coffee and cake. It can be noisy if busy, a bijou cafe, great to have one in Burbage.

Lovely little tea/coffee shop with light lunches and home made cakes, would highly recommend.

Sumptuous small tea room in Burbage for a special occasion with friends or just a nice treat. Wonderfully fresh tasty sandwiches and exquisite cakes. Definitely worth a visit.

We recently visited the coffee shop. I have to say the owner was very rude there was a little issue with the food that when pointed out she did not like it at all. The other member of staff was really nice and if it hadn't have been for owner the place would have go a higher review.

Lovely visit with my daughter today, hot chocolate and a delicious cake!! The ceiling with the flowers on is amazing !! Lovely friendly staff too. I will bring my mum in for afternoon tea soon!!

Everything a cafe should be! Delicious food, friendly staff! Perfect!

It's nice and comfortable. Beautiful decor! Lovely place and the food was delicious!

First time for me at Loquacious Baker, for a special "Spice Night" evening event where we had an Indian dining experience. Fantastic hosting by Cathy and the 4 course meal was delicious with the chef being very entertaining throughout. We definitely plan to return during normal hours for brunch one morning and keep an eye out for future events.

Lovely! They are so friendly and the food and drink is amazing defenutly coming back again

Beautiful little gem of a find. Randomly found this place when searching for a caffeine hit. Pleasantly surprised with how lovely the shop and staff were. Ended up buying cupcakes to bring back for the whole family, which went down a treat!I/we will definitely be coming back for more of the same.

£6 for a tiny slice of quiche and a bit of salad!!!! 2 sliced baby tomatoes, 4 thin cut slices of cucumber and a few leaves of rocket. Well and truly had my pants down here 😲 make sure you avoid getting ripped off from this place like I did.

I took my wife here for breakfast on her birthday. We both had the full english and a cappuccino each. We arrived at about 9:30am on a Friday morning. We were greeted kindly and our order was taken promptly. The wait time was about 10 mins which was fine and the food arrived very presentable and hot. Great cappuccinos too! We are definitely going to be back again. Price was very reasonable too. I think we paid about £18 all in. Only thing missing was sausages on out breakfast but that was ok with us.

I have visited this place a few times now and have always found the staff friendly and welcoming. I have had afternoon tea which was delish - couldn't manage it all so they packed up the rest for me to take home! All the cakes and pastries look awesome and I hope to visit again soon to work my way through the rest of them!

Quaint and sophisticated set up. Table height sockets for charging phones or laptops and free WiFi. Clean, bright and welcoming. The cup cakes were delicious and moist. Definitely will be going back.

Great little coffee shop, ruby hot chocolate to die for!

Lovely place went in for a breakfast and a coffee had to wait 25 minutes for my breakfast and it was so small but cost 7 pound for 2 rash of bacon and scrambled egg not happy

I stopped here while visiting from the US and it is absolutely fabulous! I’m a coffee drinker myself and they do have coffees however I decided to go with a friends recommendation and get the “afternoon tea” It was SO SO SO Delicious If you find yourself in Burbage or anywhere near it DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and visit the Loquacious Baker. You won’t be disappointed!

Lovely breakfast as usual dog friendly premises Reece was well behaved

Having just moved to the area, myself and my partner had to try this café for a spot of breakfast. Understandably so, it was quite busy both for takeaway drinks and cakes and for eating and drinking in. The friendly staff quickly welcomed us to a table and a menu inside. Despite being busy, the service was quick and efficient for taking orders and serving. We both had the hazelnut latte, I had a loquacious breakfast and my boyfriend had the brioche toast, both of which were delicious! Will definitely be back again.

A lovely little cafe in Burbage village. They serve breakfast until 11.30am when the lunch menu swaps in. You’re made to feel very welcome and there is a nice choice of food including the cake counter with fresh made unusual cakes, I had the Belgium waffle topped toffee and fudge cake. Or you might consider the brioche french toast with maple syrup, which is definitely a winner.

Says they are open Monday to Friday but turned up and was closed, disgusting

I have been in here twice with my friend, both times we had lunch and it’s a lovely little cafe. Very modern, very clean. The food is delicious and every time you go if you keep your receipt you get 10% off your next order. They sell lovely cakes and jams. They do a golden years menu too for the over 65’s buy one lunch get one free. Would definitely recommend and I will return.

What a find! Small but perfectly formed tea rooms. Treated to an afternoon tea by my Son and all I can say is WOW. An abundance of goodies both savoury and sweet....had to have a doggy bag as i couldn't eat it all...super staff too. I'll be back.

Have been a few times now, always served with a smile, and all the food has been amazing. Last visit was on Tuesday and I had the salmon with poached egg on toasted bread. It was delicious, as was the Victoria sandwich cake to follow.The choice of coffees is great and are the best tasting around.If you haven’t tried it yet then I recommend that you do. Top place in Burbage & Hinckley.

Living in Burbage it’s been hard to find somewhere to enjoy a decent cup of coffee and freshly cooked food BUT NO MORE!!! This little gem (it only seats 12) has emerged recently and is a place I visit frequently for a ‘flat white’ and breakfast or lunch ... however their cakes always look so amazing but as I’m on Slimming World to date I’ve managed to resist them BUT I’ve weakened on the cheese and bacon straws and sausage rolls both ‘amazing’ ... Amanda (the chef) and Cathy (the owner) are both great cooks and are extremely accommodating to my exacting demands, as I said I’m doing SW so I have scrambled egg, baked beans, brown toast no butter or crusts took a bit of negotiating that one ... had to use all my charm ... Ann Marie is becoming a very skilled Barista ... just don’t ask her to do anything too complicated on the coffee top ... sometimes you have to use your imagination as to what it is but it’s very entertaining !!! If you visit at the weekend you’ll be lucky enough to meet ‘Hattie’ ... she’s shortly moving to London to start her training as a pastry chef. They have a great Facebook Page and Website so I’d encourage you to check them out and pay them a visit ... YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED... Ohhhh and they also do a Loyalty Card as well

Enjoyed a freshly baked scone and a delicious coffee. My sister was very impressed. Although hidden away off the beaten track, we managed to locate it. Staff very accommodating and friendly. Will visit again.

Amazing home made cakes and sausage rolls - Ridiculously good cup cakes and fancy sweet treats :)

Really friendly staff, delicious cakes and the breakfasts look good too. Bit cramped inside but nice to meet a friend and relax.
