The Old School Tea Rooms is tucked away in Hollow Lane and is not too easy to find unless you are…read morefamiliar with the area. As the name suggests, it is located in an old school building, small but perfectly formed. The cafe is a little gem when you get here. The food is lovely, afternoon tea is excellent and the choice and service is very good. There is plenty of parking, and the location is great if you fancy a walk either before or after your visit. The only problem is that because it is quite small inside, it can get full, so you need to be willing to wait sometimes.

Today I had the absolute pleasure of popping into one of Leek's hidden gems in Coffee Clique. I…read morestumbled upon it by pure chance as I wondered down an alley exploring some independent shops. The downstairs is an open sofa area with a board displaying the various luxury milkshakes on offer that day. Whilst they all looked very appetising, I was really in the mood for a decent cuppa so headed up the metal stairway to the kitchen to order. I was then greeted by the smell of cakes and pastries which had literally just come out of the oven. In the end I opted for a tea and a muffin which came to a very reasonable £2.60. The lady behind the bar brought my order over to me, a very nice touch I thought which meant I was able to sit and browse the art for sale on the wall. When my tea came, it also came with a little biscuit on the side, again, not much but a nice touch which shows that this shop really cares about service. Overall, the shop has a really "artsy" yet cosy feel about it. It's the kind of place which I could see myself sitting for hours writing or catching up with pals I haven't seen in a while. The quiet and relaxing atmosphere is further enhanced by the scents wafting over from the scented candle shop a few doors down. This place is a real find and I encourage others in Leek to give it a go too.

Waste of time and energy, waited 40 minutes on Wednesday 6th July got drinks after 20 minutes…read more Asked for wholemeal bap got white asked for white only Stilton got Blue, when complained that no one had advised me of the changes to my request was told that they only took over the business on the previous friday and that they had no other chees and that they had been busy so why was I complaining! With remarks like that from the indifferent lady owner i did indeed ask myself why I was complaining. The service was shocking the attitude of the owner was disgraceful and to top it off my daughter advised me that her pasta dish was cold but that she didn't like to add any more stuff to the complant list!! Steer clear my friends it was appaling. There scores on the doors is 2 stars but of course this is not measured against service only hygiene which isn't very good but if service was included in the ratings they would have got -5.

The highlight of a trip here is afternoon tea, which provides unlimited cups of tea, mixed sandwiches, cakes and scones. If you choose this, please come hungry or you will never make any inroads into it - we never manage to finish, no matter how little we have eaten before arrival. Sheila's also offers delicious Sunday lunches and is a great place for a trip out into the country followed by something nice to eat. It is suitable for all the family, but particularly for impressing your relatives!

Cafe Delight is a fairly new venture and a welcome addition to the cafes in Leek that provide…read morebreakfast. The food is great value traditional cooking, but this is not the place to go if you want something fancy! They also do good standard lunches of sandwiches and jacket potatoes and we have never been disappointed here. The decor is 1970's plastic and melamine, but it is worth going to for the pictures - have a look and you will see what I mean. The staff are lovely, and will substitute items for another if you want to customise your meal - my daughter ended up with breakfast that included both chips and hash browns and loved it!
