About Bless Cafe & Deli

On Croft Rd in Nottingham, Bless Cafe & Deli is a breakfast restaurant seating diners in retro booths throughout the room. The kitchen serves daytime only, and the counter takes walk-ins rather than reservations. It opens Tuesday to Sunday and closes Mondays, giving the week a steady rhythm around morning and midday service. The booth seating runs the length of the café, giving the space its distinct layout rather than a standard mix of tables. Guests arrive without needing to plan ahead, ordering at the counter before settling into a booth for breakfast or a deli-style plate. The daytime-only hours mean the kitchen closes before evening service begins each day it operates.

Recommend this restaurant or not: I strongly recommend this restaurant to those who like Cantonese food. It is one of the cheapest or even the cheapest restaurant in the whole of Nottingham with this high quality.Definitely worth the visit as I’ve visited more than 5 times and it always has the same high standard. I will definitely come back and it is well worth a visit. Pros: All foods that I tried were all amazing and the price is very cheap.The waitress was very nice, she/they came to me with a smile and speak to me very nicely. I enjoyed the conversation. The toilet was mainly clean with a big mirror.The decoration of the restaurant was great with green leaves as their theme. It was very calm. The signs were everywhere so the customers are informed.The menu looked really nice too. Cons: The only few downside for this restaurant was that the toilet was not super clean and the floor was a bit dirty with a chopstick on the ground.The price did increased a bit but I still considered the price as cheap though.It was a hot weather when I went and even though there were 5 fans, it was still hot and uncomfortable. It would be nice to have an AC. It was understandable as it was their first summer and their first time to experience the hot weather. They were considering to buy an air conditioner. It would be really nice to have the coolness.”

    “Really loved the food here, and it was so great to taste some classic, special Hong Kong-style dishes. I will definitely visit this restaurant again whenever I get the chance!”

    “Staff are really friendly and welcoming straight away. The place is cosy with retro booth seating and honestly one of the cleanest and tidiest HK cafés I've been to. Very comfortable too. There is plenty of parking right across the road as well. We ordered the beef brisket and tendon noodles, beef noodles and beef ho fun, all large portions. The quality was superb, portions are generous and the taste is genuinely authentic Hong Kong. This kind of food is really hard to find in Nottingham and Bless absolutely delivers. Great value for money too. What really stood out was how the staff manage the tables. When it's busy they take your number and call you when a table is free. Simple but so much better than other HK cafés in Nottingham where someone sits on a table for 4 waiting for their group to arrive while there's a queue outside. Unlike some mixed reviews you might read, I found everything to be top quality. 5 stars from us and we will definitely be back! 🙌”

    “服務態度有待改善 The food was good, which is why I’m giving two stars instead of one. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. One of the dishes we ordered never arrived. When we politely informed a female member of staff, instead of checking the order or apologising, she immediately insisted that we had never ordered it. She told us that when she repeated the order back to us, she did not mention the dish and that we should have pointed it out at the time. We are certain that the dish was ordered. Even if there had been a misunderstanding, I would have expected the staff to focus on resolving the issue rather than assigning blame to the customer. Her tone was dismissive and made us feel as though our concern was not being taken seriously. Mistakes happen, but good customer service is about how those mistakes are handled. Unfortunately, this interaction left a very negative impression despite the food being enjoyable.”
