Customer Review Summary
Reviewers praise the freshly cooked food and the friendly staff, with the breakfast baguette the one dish named outright and breakfasts and lunches both described as great. Close behind come the generous portions and the prices, which several call cheap, reasonable or well priced, with one visitor from Derby calling it excellent value. The atmosphere is described as cosy, quiet and beautiful, and a few note how clean the place is. Staff are repeatedly called lovely, friendly and kind, and one reviewer singles out the owner as always welcoming. Reviewers describe finding the cafe on a walk or while looking for somewhere different for lunch, and one who tried other Leicester cafes after a local favourite closed says this one beats them on food, staff and price. No complaints appear among the reviews. Several say they plan to return, and one is only disappointed not to live nearby.
