About Loofers Food & Coffee Place
Loofers Food & Coffee Place is a coffee shop in Colchester at 1 Culver St W, with a breakfast menu that runs from a breakfast stack to eggs benedict. The kitchen also makes a halloumi-and-chicken panini fresh, filled with grilled halloumi, bacon, chicken and mayo, for anyone wanting something more substantial than breakfast. Coffee sits alongside the food, so a drink and a meal can come from the same counter. Seating includes spots by open windows.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for the panini, especially the halloumi and chicken version with bacon and mayo, which one regular says can't be found anywhere else as good. Close behind are the breakfast dishes, including a breakfast stack with freshly cooked pancakes, eggs benedict and a bacon ciabatta, along with coffee described as delicious, including a cappuccino and a mocha frappe. Several mention smooth jazz and background music that make the place relaxed, and many describe friendly staff, including an owner who served and a team member who remembered and asked after a customer's little boy. The main complaints are small. One group's order arrived in two separate rounds, so the first half had finished eating by the time the rest were served, and one reviewer rated the potato wedges lower than the wrap and frappe. Even so, one diner finished by noting the empty plate said it all.

“Came here as a group for breakfast, before the rugby, I've not been before. Nice friendly staff. Sat by the open windows which was nice that time of morning as it wasnt too hot. We all ordered at the same time, but it came out in 2 seperate occasions. By the time we got ours, the first service had finished theirs. But the food was really nice, freshly cooked (including the pancakes) so piping hot. I had the breakfast stack on this occasion.”

“A wonderful venue with friendly staff as well as a superb menu. A personal favourite activity is eating their bacon Ciabatta and enjoying a top quality Cappuccino while chilling out to the brilliant background music. Well done guys and thank you for always making us feel welcome each time we visit.”
