About Red Pepper Cafe
Red Pepper Cafe is a canalside cafe in Wigan, set inside the Wigan Investment Centre, a large office block that houses several companies. The main entrance is off a corridor within the building. The kitchen serves an all day breakfast, a sausage and egg barm with brown sauce, and sandwiches made fresh with a range of fillings. Delegates from the building's meeting rooms eat in the cafe, and the team provides catering for groups. Dogs are welcome.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the friendly staff, who are described as lovely and unable to do enough for customers, alongside fresh, hot food. Named specifics include the sausage and egg barm with brown sauce, sausage paninis, a BLT with decent bacon and fresh salad, and an all day breakfast described as good quality and value. Lattes are called hot and delicious by one visitor, and another singles out hot chocolates with cream and marshmallows. Takeaway meals to heat up at home, such as halloumi fries, wedges and garlic bread, also get a mention, and one reviewer says the team handled a week of last minute catering for children, all prepped and on time. Several sit outside by the canal. The criticism is limited but specific: one reviewer found two coffee drinks so weak they threw one away, and another objected to dine-in meals served in polystyrene boxes with plastic cutlery and disposable cups during a training session. One visitor, arriving by the office block's fire door, was forgiven with a smile.

“Place smells of burned plastic the two coffee drinks we purchased were so weak i disposed of mine and my wife drank only a small ammount of hers. Total waste of £6.30 and the nasty smell eminating from there could be noticed in the near by ajoining reception for buisnesses.”
