About The Rogues Coffee House & Kitchen
On Upper Long Leys Rd in Lincoln, The Rogues Coffee House & Kitchen is a cafe serving breakfast, brunch, and lunch through the week, closed on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The menu includes a full English breakfast, avocado and poached eggs on toast with an option for smoked salmon, and Yorkshire pudding dishes such as turkey and pork. The Rogues Rosti also features on the menu, and gluten free sausages and other gluten free options are accommodated. Outdoor seating extends the space for those who want to eat outside, and dogs are welcome at the tables. Reservations are recommended, since the room is small and can fill up at busy times. Service can slow during these peak periods as the kitchen works through orders. The cafe opens across the rest of the week, giving diners a set pattern of days to plan around.

Customer Review Summary
The full English breakfast draws the most repeat praise, with reviewers calling it among the best they've had, crispy bacon and perfectly poached eggs, and one noting the kitchen's gluten free version was handled with care. Close behind, the avocado and poached eggs on toast (one diner adds smoked salmon) and the Rogues Rosti topped potatoes earn their own mentions, alongside Sunday's Yorkshire pudding dishes with turkey and pork and a Victoria sponge with coffee. Portion sizes and value come up repeatedly, several calling prices too cheap for the quality. The recurring trade-off is pace: multiple reviewers flag slow service during busy periods, though it's generally paired with friendly staff, and one visit where poached eggs came out hard and black pudding merely needed warming was met with the drinks left off the bill as an apology. The cosy, small space and chatty atmosphere are mentioned often. One reviewer closes on being served by the chef directly, a touch they called a nice surprise.

“Great experience at this lovely independent coffee house and kitchen. Had x2 of the Rogues Rosti topped potatoes which were just superb, and kids had simple sandwiches which were just as good. All reasonably priced. Would 100% recommend to anyone in the local area.”
