I find a lot of coffee places just don't really want you stay and they have hard, uncomfy furniture to reflect that. But not here! This place often has events that extend its opening hours, too. My favourite is the 'big comfy folk club' which are folk and acoustic sessions hosted on the 1st and 3rd Friday of the month. Next one is on 4th March and tickets are only a fiver! Brilliant intimate venue, and the performers usually stick around for a while afterwards which is nice (: OH ALSO, WINE! The big comfy book shop serves alcohol! Live music + book shop + cake + red wine = total winner. See you on the 4th!

I really like The Big Comfy Bookshop!…read more It is a quant used book shop that is family owned. The owner spent over a year compiling books to open his shop, and ever since has kept a good variety of books that are unique to customers, or a popular search result of a used book. There is always fresh coffee, tea options, beer and wine, and some sort of snacks like crisps or cake for sale. Seating is available to hang out with friends for a little while or to start tucking into your future purchase. Also I noticed that live folk music nights and game nights regularly occur here too! Great place!

We had an hour to kill before having to go back to the train station, as all the tourist's…read moreattractions in Coventry centre had closed at 4pm, and so stopped here, since there did not seem any other place to go nearby for a hot drink. It was also very inviting as it was a nice sunny day, and they had tables outside. It's a shame as they are for smokers. What about non-smokers who want to enjoy the sun and warm weather outside? Unfortunately, we were also subjected to the smoking. I do not drink coffee for medical reasons, and so settled for the hot chocolate. Here, it is a shame again, as most coffee shops, the "hot" is missing, and often I have to ask for extra hot if ever I go again. It was very well presented, but it also was quite powdery, so not the best hot chocolate that I have tasted. Perhaps, it does coffee better but I shall never know. The decor is nice, clean and relaxing and uncluttered with wooden tables. Friendly service. Closes at 6pm, and they starting packing up the outside tables and chairs around 5.50pm, which suited us, as we were just leaving! They also get another star for very nice and clean, modern and pleasant toilet facilities.

Yes it's expensive, but that's the market they are aiming for, this isn't aimed at the person that earns minimum wage... It's aimed at professionals with plenty of disposable income. The bar is very nice, a good selection of drinks and the decor is good too. The food is high end, definitely not your Weatherspoons cheap burger and fries... They have proper chefs that use top quality ingredients. The management have done a good job at keeping this place going over the years, I think that keeping young attractive girls on staff all the time definitely helps! As I know most guys go purely for the eye candy... (Not me of course!) but most men are always saying how you never see an unattractive girl on staff... Not sure how legal that is to only hire attractive people, but they seem to have gotten away with it for the past decade so there we go... I guess it's all part of the brand...

The service is great - they quickly get to know and greet their regulars and nothing is too much trouble. The menu includes a wide range of breakfasts, sandwiches and cooked lunches, all cheap but tasty. They still offer free refills on tea and coffee, and do the best cooked breakfasts to be had in Coventry, without question - they're the only ones who don't serve it with a side order of grease! They also offer a free order and delivery service for local workers who can't get out at lunchtime, even driving to the other side of the city, and they also offer outside catering. They're a Coventry institution, and deservedly so.

The seating area is good as they have a mix of comfy chairs alongside the bar stool seats by the window so you can keep an eye on the trains. There is only one screen with the trains listed on it and it is not the biggest but does serve a purpose. Having been to many a train station coffee places I think this one is a little bit over priced but clearly they have the monopoly as it is the only place where you can get a hot or cold drink. So all in all it does what it says on the tin.
