The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in East Midlands

We’ve been going to Esquires on the odd occasion when in town for about a year. In the early days it was the best place for a drink, brunch or lunch. More recently I’m afraid it seems to have gone downhill. I’ve had occasions where I’ve had to ask for a table to be cleaned, I’ve had to chase food or drinks that haven’t arrived, I’ve quietly mentioned to a member of staff that the bathroom looks like it hasn’t been cleaned for a while and in our most recent visit, there was an eyelash in my food. Such a shame. I really hope they read some of the recent reviews and up their game. In the meantime, I think I’ll be going elsewhere.

Lovely coffee and cake. Dog friendly inside and out. The cafe was very busy as it was a Sunday but the staff were still lovely and friendly. Also I really like how all the wrapping and utensils are recyclable

Brilliant service, so fast and the food is exactly what you expect. Really clean and efficient. Great staff who are really friendly and hard-working. Recommended.

Have been a regular visitor to Moore's garden centre and Gilmores cafe for several years. Recently the quality and overall presentation of the food served at the cafe has sadly deteriorated. Ordered two poached eggs and mushrooms on toast yesterday (19.05.2024) and a sausage and egg cob. The food arrived and the mushrooms weren't on the toast, they were on the plate with the cob and a tiny portion. 8 pieces of sliced mushrooms which were cold. Poached eggs were very undercooked, the egg white barely cooked resulting in a soggy horrible mess on the toast. It was inedible as the eggs were raw. There were several breakfast orders being delivered to the wrong tables despite the tables having numbers on them. Overall it was a shambles. Used to be so well managed and the food piping hot and presented well but not anymore. Worst breakfast I have ever had. Cooking eggs correctly is basic food hygiene. The new menu may look appealing, whoever is doing the cooking isn't doing a very good job. Had the eggs benedict a few weeks ago and that wasn't great either. They need to visit Matlock garden centre, breakfast is superb, piping hot and presentation is very good. What has happened to the good old days of piping hot food, omelettes presented with lovely salad etc.

just a joke of a pub avoid avoid avoid i will say it again avoid avoid avoid terrible experience flat beer dirty toilets arrogant landlord

In an old mill building with some other shops and a courtyard. Had coffee which was well made and tasted good. Was a bit empty when we went.

Came here at lunch time last Friday with our walking group, Cosby Friday Walkers. We only wanted coffees and drinks but they made us very welcome as usual. Good coffee with a smile. Thank you.

There was a queue of customers with trolleys, full, and only one person on the till. Have people on the till! The poor lady on till didn't have a headset either so had to call over another employee on self-serve to ask for someone else to be on tills. And then when they did, they went to the far end, not the till next to, or one over. Meant people at the back rushed there and those who had been waiting longer in the middle of the line had to stay in that queue or be at the back of another. Terrible system. Would not do a big shop here again.

Had two breakfasts, very tasty. Lovely mug of tea. Very polite and friendly staff. Thank you, will call again when on area.

We used to visit every two weeks but the new people have put up prices about 50% and they no longer have a child's menu sorry but we will now only visit occasionally as pensioner's we are on a limited budget maybe they would prefer only employed people who have an unlimited budget

We usually shop at Waitrose Market Harborough where we have never been disappointed, this morning we visited lutterworth , we selected a small white farmhouse loaf from the bakery and 2 croissants from the bakery (1 x choc / 1 x plain) . All of these goods from were not fresh certainly not baked today. I have never experienced this in the Market Harborough store. We will not be revisiting this store.

Friendly and place is decorated brilliantly but very disappointed in the food choice for lactose intolerance. No cake choice at all if you are lactose free so only able to have a drink. They do soya milk.I'd have thought a place like this would cater for all as it is a family cafe.

Fast service / clean store / great team - amaizing Greggs. Always serving with smile. 5 on 5 stars. Worth visiting.

Great Costa, good seating area and the usual excellent coffee. The food is alwyas good and a reasonable view from the seating area.

Decided against food as the service is so slow you’d spend 10-15 mins in the short queue then 20 mins waiting for a breakfast. Place is dirty the floors and tables need a clean and cleaning solution shouldn’t be left on the table. I’m sure the staff do their best actually but they need younger & fitter staff , as a result it’s really only catering for old folks who spend an hour at the table . So you may find you pay for food and are left without a table. As nobody wants to share a table. Cold drinks and little biscuit bars way overpriced!! £2 for a standard can of fizzy drink ? Tesco shop doesn’t charge that. Bonus side you can use a clubcard. Altho Costa over the road also does the loyalty card and occasional free drinks when you get enough stamps ,
