“Collected a too good to go and they gave me a pre prepared bag of non menu items - Very empty stale baps. Disgusting service and not what they have to do by the service.”

“Stopped at Upper Crust in Leicester train station before my journey and was genuinely impressed. The baguettes were fresh, well filled, and exactly what you want when travelling. Coffee was great too, served quickly even though it was busy. Staff were friendly, welcoming, and kept everything moving smoothly. The place was clean, organised, and perfect for grabbing food on the go. Easily one of the better food spots at a train station — will definitely be back next time I’m passing through Leicester.”

They patiently guided me through the menu, which was a great help as it was my inaugural visit. I truly appreciated their attentiveness and the overall positive atmosphere. I highly recommend this establishment for a fantastic meal and exceptional service. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! #Foodie #DiningExperience #ExceptionalService #RestaurantReview”
