About Alberts Cafe & Tea Room

Alberts Cafe & Tea Room sits at the back of an emporium filled with antiques and retro items in Leicester, reached through the shop itself. The kitchen serves a breakfast bap with bacon, sausage, egg and hash brown, alongside a full English breakfast with coffee, and a cream tea with cake for those after something lighter. A special board rotates alongside the regular menu. Seating runs both inside and outside, with the outdoor area enclosed and laid with artificial grass, giving diners the option to eat in the open air. The step-free entrance suits visitors with mobility needs, and high chairs are on hand for families with young children. Dogs are welcome throughout. The cafe opens Wednesday to Sunday during the day, closing Mondays and Tuesdays, and reservations are recommended for a table.

Customer Review Summary

The full English breakfast draws the most consistent praise, with reviewers repeatedly calling out its value, one noting it for less than £10 with coffee included, and another highlighting the breakfast bap loaded with bacon, sausage, egg, and a hash brown as filling and excellent value. Close behind, the cream tea and cakes earn mentions, alongside the attached retro emporium and antiques that several describe browsing after eating. Staff and the owner are repeatedly called friendly and welcoming, with reviewers noting accommodating help around dietary needs. One reviewer suggests booking ahead and checking the specials board. Against this, one reviewer describes a sharply negative encounter, saying a staff member was rude about an unreserved table and directed them to sit outside in the rain, which they felt warranted the manager's dismissal. Otherwise, the pattern across reviews stays toward friendly service and satisfying breakfasts at reasonable prices.

“Absolutely awful experience. Sat down to get something to eat. Table was not reserved but rude worker came over and told us that she wanted our table to reserve. Was very rude about it. Told us to sit outside despite it raining. This person I assume the manager on shift should be fired for having no people skills. Would never go there again Shame on you”

“Stopped off here on a cycle loop from Warwick. Very friendly and welcoming...we sat outside in a nice little enclosed area on some nice artificial grass. As you can see, I had the breakfast bap which was excellent value. Bacon, sausage, egg and a hash brown in a large bap. Very filling There is also inside seating if you need it Highly recommended”
