"I was initially impressed by the charming atmosphere of the cafe when I walked in. A young Asian lady, who I later found out was the chef, took my order. It was a bit odd to see her also working the front of house register while two colleagues chatted behind her. Unfortunately, when my order arrived, the waffle was severely burnt. Despite the burnt taste and biscuit-like consistency, the toppings of biscoff, whipped cream, and vanilla ice cream helped mask the bitterness. Thankfully, the chef swiftly replaced my order with a fresh waffle that was much more palatable. However, my experience was slightly tarnished when a different staff member agreed to bring a glass of water for my companion but instead walked outside to check her phone, leaving us without the water we requested. Overall, while the food was eventually improved, the workload seemed overwhelming for the staff and led to subpar service."

Love this little independent cafe. Interesting selection of coffees. I had the beetroot Mocha I believe it was…so nice. Really good selection on menu including for vegan and vegetarian. My new little fave to eat when I’m there.

We visited this nice cafe last Saturday. It was a cold morning and we were in search of a nice hot drink. So glad we stumbled across this cafe. We had the Gingery Gingerbread Hot Chocolate, Cappuccino and Old School Cake. It all hit the spot!!! Staff were friendly and drinks and cakes were perfect. Thanks

I was not very impressed with this restaurant. I ordered breakfast, but the young lady forgot to mention that they were out of sausage, which is a big part of the meal. I would recommend avoiding this place, as it is greasy, tables are dirty, and the staff just stand in the kitchen laughing and joking around. View menu

Went for breakfast this morning, upon entering the cafe there was no greeting from the server behind the counter. She didn’t even acknowledge us coming in, which we noticed straight away. Then we went to order, she didn’t seem the slightest bit bothered. It was quiet since it was early, but there was 0 atmosphere. Had we not said thank you once we finished and left, I don’t think the server would’ve said anything at all. Customer service is 0. Food was average.

I called in while visiting Leicester to eat one of the delicious Vegan Cakery cakes that they stock (I knew about it via VC social media posts . The cafe is cosy and welcoming with a nice clean loo. Its location is extremely handy for visiting the interesting old part of town (Guildhall, Richard III Visitor Centre etc . While I was in there I must have dropped my purse. I only noticed after an hour or so of sightseeing, but when I went back in a panic I was immediately handed the purse complete with all the contents. So five stars for kind and honest staff and (probably! customers too! I'll definitely go back next time I'm in Leicester.
