  “Good spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The food we ordered was tasty and well presented. The coffee was good, however the fresh squeezed orange juice tasted like it was diluted with water. The order took a bit longer than expected to arrive, but the service was friendly. Overall it was a good experience and I can recommend stopping by.”

  “We have been meaning to try this place for some time and we were not disappointed. The service was very friendly and the smoothies were fresh. We tried the special avocado toast and shaksuka and they were fresh and you could tell made from scratch. The food was superb and without fault. This has got to be the best place in Leicester for brunch/breakfast, so if you’re looking for something a little different, I’d highly recommend it. The owner is very nice also and took the time to ask each table how their meal was..sign of a great independent breakfast spot and we will be back a lot for sure .”

  “⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Flawless – Our New Favorite Spot! ​We had brunch here last week, and we loved it so much that we came back today for another delicious meal! I absolutely loved the sandwich I ordered last time so I just had to get the exact same one again today—and it did not disappoint. ​Everything about La Foret Cafe is exceptional. The food is delicious and cooked to perfection. ​Every single plate comes out looking like a beautiful work of art. ​The owner is incredibly attentive, always checking in on us and making sure we have everything we need. ​I honestly could go on and on writing great things about this place. Another easy 10/10 for the food, the service, and the entire experience. We will definitely be back again soon! Thank you for your food!”

  “Food: We ordered the classic breakfast, two of their fresh desserts, and the recommended Moroccan tea. The tea was exceptional — very soothing and full of flavour. The food was clean, fresh, and tasty overall. The cake and pastry were especially nice, to the point that we ended up taking some home with us. Service: The staff were very kind, polite, and well-mannered. They were also very accommodating when we asked to move seats, and they made sure everything was extra clean and spotless, which we really appreciated. Atmosphere: The atmosphere was lovely and relaxing. The café has a warm, comfortable feel, making it a very pleasant place to sit, enjoy tea, and have a nice breakfast or dessert.”

  “Without a doubt, the best breakfast restaurant in Leicester. The quality of the ingredients is outstanding, and every single detail is prepared to perfection. You can truly feel that the owner puts their whole heart into every meal, and it shows not only in the food but also in the atmosphere of the place itself. It feels warm, welcoming, and almost like having a homemade breakfast. What makes this place even more special is that most of the baked goods are homemade as well, which adds such a personal and authentic touch to the experience. And the banana bread is an absolute must-try. Easily one of the best you’ll ever have. The staff are always kind, attentive, and genuinely care about your comfort and experience. Every visit feels special, and the service is consistently excellent. One thing is certain - you will never leave hungry or disappointed. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an unforgettable breakfast experience in Leicester.”

  “I have to be real, I’m usually very critical about the food when I eat out. No where to lie, this was absolutely aromatic and life changing. This middle eastern bowl was so rich, all the different colours and flavours. Beautifully created, you could tell the owner really curated this dish with precision and love. With all the chicken shops and bakeries in Leicester, this spot is cozy and inviting with all different types of foods that are really popular and delicious and aren’t just sweets but also healthy and filling.”

  “Unfortunately waited 45 mins for tap water to even arrive then another 10 mins after for the food. I thought it was going to be a food experience due to the nice reviews I saw online, however that was not the case. Food was not as described on the menu. Ordered a vegan breakfast It arrived with 3 small falafels, regular white bread, claimed to be pan fried but spinach looked like it was just chucked on the plate. It was not pan fried whatsoever. Politely asked for a refund on this item as it was definitely not worth the price and I was not really interested in eating anything else. One of the waitress Staff was quite nice however most of the food tasted like it was brought frozen or from Aldi. It was definitely not worth almost an hour wait. The Chef was very argumentative. He came upstairs to state that there was nothing wrong with the food and claimed it was great quality for £12 meal and all the food cost them so much more than the £12 we had paid. Had high expectations unfortunately not pleasant experience, do not recommend.”

  “Absolutely fantastic place, I cannot recommend it enough. I had the deluxe avocado on toast and it was genuinely the best avocado on toast I’ve ever had. The poached eggs were cooked to perfection, and the hummus paired with the avocado was absolutely delicious. My sister had the full English and has officially been converted to turkey bacon and sausages, which says a lot! Portion sizes are generous, pricing is very reasonable, the décor is beautiful, and the staff are all so lovely. The owner/chef is also great and you can really feel the care that goes into the food. And I have to mention the pistachio chocolate cake… to die for. I can’t wait to return! Thank you for an incredible experience La Foret.”

  “Boyfriend enjoyed his food , he had the full English and it looked nice. However service is extremely slow. I waited 30+ mins for a smoothie (it was not busy at all)Saw other people complain about wait times and someone asked for a refund as it took so long. Downstairs atmosphere is nice enough , upstairs lacks character completely. Staff are friendly enough but it took them ages to clear tables.”
