The 30 Best Cafe in Loughborough

“I purchased salmon sashimi to enjoy at home, and it was incredibly fresh and deliciously rich. The salmon sushi and tuna avocado sushi I had in-store were equally delightful. The bubble tea was excellent, and the egg waffle was tasty—though it could be even better if it were a bit crispier.”

“A local café serving good honest food at affordable prices. Lovely people serving lovely food. Very clean and pleasant toilet too!”

“Very solid fry-up delivered really quickly, friendly service. A rare open establishment early doors on Sunday morning, so busy with cafe customers bantering.”

“Tasty food, pleasant staff. Good location for shopping.”

“I high recommend this cafe and the tables outside looking at the railway station. One could do trainspotting there and take wonderful photos. There is so much to take on photos. The sense of the past is so strong that one has the feeling being taken back to the 60s.”

“We had been for a day out and I had originally booked for my partner and our children for 3pm on the Sunday. My daughter has dairy and egg allergies, so rather than booking online, I decided to call to speak to someone regarding their procedures for my daughter's allergies. Luckily enough, I managed to speak to the manager, Bekki. I explained the situation regarding the above and before I could start asking questions, Bekki started telling me how they deal with this. Front of house know and inform the chef/kitchen and we also get a tablet with all the food and ingredients on it and you can put in your allergies/intolerances and it will tell you what is available. From start to finish, it was a very good system and put my mind at rest. I was very impressed. The only other large food establishment that is this thorough, that I've been to, is Hickory's. Anyway, we got there on Sunday (albeit an hour early!) and we were seated straight away. The lady that checked our booking, confirmed the allergies and gave us our tablet. We chose our food and our waitress also knew about the allergies and confirmed that she would double check with the kitchen with anything we ordered. We got our food (which was very nice by the way) and the waiter that bought my daughter's food even washed his hands before bringing it out, which shows complete dedication to me! There was only one gripe and that is, is that we did have to wait a while for our dessert's. From start to finish, I was very impressed with the way they handled everything with regards to my daughter's allergies. Very professional and they actually cared. Thank you very much.”

“Lovely cinema apart from 2 levels of stairs ti screen 1 and 2”

“Really great atmosphere, so far only tried the coffee and pastries. Which are delicious! Loking forward to trying their breakfast next.”

“Leena and Raoul brilliant service very friendly and kind. Return here after many years brought me some good memories the og chip butty special a must try please vist”

“Top food in Loughborough! Food was faultless. The Rucola pizza was lovely and can’t wait to try more from here! Small bites were great too, came with dips and full of flavour. Reasonably priced, and lovely staff. Quite a small restaurant so can get crowded however a lovely atmosphere when quiet.”

“My first visit with friends last night and i wasn’t disappointed. The staff were all lovely and helpful, with great banter with them which helped create a lovely atmosphere. The food was fantastic, I had the beef wellington starter and crab and prawn risotto, followed by the salted sponge and I can’t recommend enough. Good wine menu and the promesa Rioja reserva was superb. One of our group had the filet steak which I was lucky enough to try and it simply melted in the mouth ( will have this I think next time I come). Heard about the legendary Sunday dinners so will be back to try this as well.”

“A huge thank you to the brewery for a incredible baby shower. From start to finish, it was well communicated and easy to book. The effort that was put in was amazing and it looked incredible on arrival. The afternoon tea was delicious and everyone commented saying how lovely it was. I can’t thank Sarah and the team enough. Would highly recommend. Took so much pressure off that they did all the set up themselves. Thank you again!”

“it was really good this worker called jamie served me excellent service no wait time hot food came out perfect temperature I loved it cheap aswell 1-10£ really good I really recommend it will be going back”

“Absolutely incredible lunch today. A really superb place to eat, faultless in every way it's a long time since I have been able to say that about any UK restaurants. I have gone to a lot of places in the UK of which there is always something wrong. However, this place has it all. Food first rate, service fast and polite, super ambience. All parts of each dish are perfectly executed. It may look simple but the love and care in the kitchen is clear in the taste of the food. I am so impressed I will be returning again. Thanks so much.”

“Great Community facility at the heart of Grange Park serving the local area. Various room sizes for large or small size meetings and groups and a kitchen available and level access from the car park and through out. Friendly atmosphere, great groups throughout the week including family friendly church service each Sunday”

“Met up with friends for a lunchtime chatch up. Wonderful pub with character. Excellent service. Lunchtime food menue, well we were spoilt for choice. Highly recommend.”

“A great traditional pub, busy with locals, 2-3 beers to choose from, a nice friendly environment.”

“We really liked how the tables were arranged with lots of room between them. It gave us privacy to chat, was a much more relaxed atmosphere and made a Saturday lunchtime a lovely experience. The food was lovely and arrived very quickly. We're definitely going back next weekend.”

“Very nice little café in Quorn. The food is lovely but you have to wait a bit. Cosy place and really recommended.it is probably the best English breakfast in the area..”

“Yum. Really good Sunday lunch. Had the "cricketers" - chicken, beef & pork. Great portion size, fantastic potatoes. Staff were friendly, my pint was local and very good too. Beautiful building. Lovely treat. Happily come again”

“I've been really struggling to find place to take my tornado toddler as he gets very overwhelmed and overstimulated with play groups etc. A friend told me about Average Joe's so I thought I'd give it a try (I thought for £3 if he goes in and wants to go out after five minutes it's ok) He loved it!! We were there for nearly two hours in the end as he didn't want to leave. This place is brilliant, bouncy castle, soft play area, play kitchen, toys, a climbing slide and lots of sparkly lights. It's not a great big center and it's only for 5yrs and under, but that is what has made it so perfect for my little boy. The staff are lovely and friendly. The cafe is really nice for a little treat to. We will definitely be coming here on a regular basis from now on”

“We have visited the Rothley branch many times now, this is our favourite of all the Miller and Carter Restaurants that we have been to. The atmosphere is great, the food has always been excellent and the service perfect. As was our latest visit at the weekend. Our waiter was Santino, he has served us on many of our visits and in my opinion he is without doubt the best waiter you could ever have anywhere! His attentiveness and profesionalisim is second to none. Thankyou Santino and to all the team for such a great all round experience time after time!”

“Lovely meal. Nice setting was very busy but they did accommodate us at short notice”

“I couldn’t recommend a place more! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the kind of warmth and hospitality that makes you feel right at home. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming - perfect for a catch up with friends, getting some work done, or simply just enjoying a seriously good coffee! You can really feel the love and care that goes into every detail, from the decor and the way they treat their customers. It’s the kind of place that remembers your name and usual order. Loughborough’s little treasure”

“Amazing service and atmosphere in an absolutely beautiful pub. Though they sadly don't offer full food they go have a lovely selection of really nice cobs and crisps for very fair prices”

“Had our wedding reception in the function room. Perfect for a relaxed wedding reception. Outside seating area and bifold doors are a bonus especially on a hot day! All staff really friendly and helpful.”

“A great little coffee shop, with friendly and happy staff. Plenty of seating, including outside seating, with loads of charging sockets.”

“We had a friend say how nice it was here, so we had to come and try it? WOW, fantastic pub with great outside space. The food was top-notch (see pics) staff very friendly. the decor in side was very unique. Also do quiz nights and live music. We will definitely be returning to try the Sunday lunch.”
