Quick info
About The Copper Kettle
The Copper Kettle is a cafe on South St in Coalville, with seating set inside a Portakabin-style space and benches outside for those who prefer to sit in the open. The counter serves a Large Breakfast with bacon, sausages, eggs, and fried bread or toast, alongside wraps and full English options. Dinner items round out the menu, including ham salad, burgers and chips, and sandwiches, with hash browns tucked into cobs. Sandwiches are also offered for functions, made well filled for catering orders. Payment runs on a walk-in basis, and cash is the preferred method. Indoor space is limited, so the outdoor benches serve as an extension of the seating on busier days.

Customer Review Summary
The large breakfast is the clear draw at The Copper Kettle, repeatedly praised as perfectly cooked, with diners calling out crispy bacon, juicy sausages, runny eggs, and golden fried bread, alongside epic toast and a good cup of tea. Close behind, the ham salad and burger and chips earn strong words for freshness and portion size, and wraps and a full English also get singled out as fantastic. Service comes up again and again as quick and friendly, with one reviewer served just before closing still getting an extra hash brown added to their cob. A few small gripes surface: one diner wants smoked bacon rather than the standard rasher, another asks for a sausage option beyond the herby variety, and one reviewer describes ordering a bacon cheese bean and hashbrown sandwich that arrived as a completely different item. Catering for an outside function also drew praise for well filled, unskimped sandwiches.

“Recently was at a function of which Copper Kettle did the catering, food was presented well, fresh and the sandwiches were what I would call "proper" well filled not skimped on. Would highly recommend. Well done”

“This is a Portakabin that has a kitchen! Seating inside is small but there is some benches outside if it’s not too hot. The wraps are fantastic and a friend had the full English and was very pleased. A very nice breakfast cafe with lots of staff and a very complete menu including dinner and breakfast items. Price is good and the staff were friendly and helpful. I will be back 👊🏻🙏🏻”
