Quick info
About Little Apron
Little Apron is a walk-in coffee shop on Crown Colonnade in Reading, set up as a casual cafe where breakfast and big, varied meals are served throughout the day. The menu covers paninis such as a mozzarella and tomato version alongside the usual cafe range, and the kitchen accommodates dairy-free and gluten-free diets. Coffee is a clear focus, with cappuccinos among the drinks on the counter. The room runs as a noisy, greasy spoon style cafe, and the toilets are kept clean. Orders are placed at the counter and the format is walk-in only.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the coffee, with one calling a cappuccino the best ever and a dairy-free, gluten-free diner finding options there. Close behind are the big, cheap meals, including a mozzarella tomato panini with a good cheese pull, though it needed to be crisper. One reviewer found the included coffee watered down instant and the cafe a bit noisy. Several mention friendly staff and a clean toilet.

“Food was decent for the price but coffee included was watered down instant coffee- was expecting a proper coffee. A bit noisy inside the cafe. Still good but there’s better value options around the area.”
- Martina Lamas
“The best place in Reading if you are looking for big meals, variety, and unbelievable prices. The girls are lovely and very welcome. Also, the toilet is impeccable. I’m dairy-free and gluten-free, which is usually difficult to find a place that covers all that and I had the best cappuccino ever! Highly recommend.”
