Located close to the city centre on Beverley road near Hull Daily Mail offices…read more This cafe is mostly popular with workers from the nearby offices and shops in the area. The building looks fairly old but is clean and tidy inside. The staff are friendly and there is plenty of seating area and a large choice of hot and cold food and drink to choose from. It's not open late, however this cafe is open from early morning and closes mid afternoon

What an appalling place!!!…read more If you really feel the need to go, don't take your friends. I visited with friends - about 10 of us, at about 4pm on a Saturday afternoon. They watched us all come through the door. Were happy to serve us and take money off us, yet they refused to seat us, despite the place being barely half full. In all fairness the bar staff were reasonably helpful and were reasonably happy for us to push a couple of tables together...that was until the man who appeared to be running the show appeared and said that we could not sit together, that the large tables that could have accommodated us were reserved for 7pm that evening. Despite the fact we assured him that we were only staying for the one - maybe a 2nd, we would certainly be gone before his bookings arrived. This was to no avail, seating was refused, we finished our drinks very quickly and left. How an the management of an establishment like this can have the arrogance to behave in this manner is beyond me. There are far nicer bars and far more accommodating bars on Newland Avenue than this. When we left, we crossed the road and went to Larkins, who were happy for our custom. My recommendation is that you walk past Sleepers, and find somewhere (anywhere) that deserves and appreciates your patronage.

In fact there is nothing to tell this place apart fom any of the others with it's open plan, lowered ceiling and cheapo wooden chairs and tables. I shared a Greek platter there and that is worth mentioning solely for how naff it was. The olives in our own special marinade were the plasticy black and green things that come out of briney cans and just chucking a bit of olive oil, garlic and tomato on it can not disguise the fact. There was no pitta bread so they gave us a bit of french stick instead which just doesn't go. The crudite's had been prepared possibly the week before and were dried out and limp. The houmus and tzatsiki I would bet had been purchased from the Tesco's up the road Really badly prepared and presented. This has super status amongst those in the know but I don't understand the hype for these places really.

You never feel ad though you're being rushed to drink and get out, borrow one of the papers by the door and relax. Free wifi also available. On one occasion they did seem to close a fair bit (40 minutes) earlier than they were due to so if you're going late it might be worth double checking before you travel. But on the whole we really like going there.

I have visited this place twice in 4 years…read more A very short distance from home and in the centre of Newland ave I thought I would have visited more. Clearly something is lacking. The decor is a little off and crumbs all over sticky leather sofas isn't exactly cosy. One day me and the Hubby got desperate as our usual "go to" coffee place was closed. We tried the hot chocolate and a flat white both of which were OK. The staff forgot my cream on the hot chocolate and later came out with an espresso full of ample cream to add on to my cup ( a nice apology gesture I thought). The staff were friendly and despite being a busy place frequented by locals and university crowds - service was actually pretty speedy and smooth.

I love coming here for a spot of lunch when shopping on Newland Avenue - it's also a place i take my god son too for ice cream as it's only £1.20 for 3 scoops - which keeps me happy because he's happy and it doesnt break the bank! They do a variety of hot and cold food, hot and cold drinks and deserts. The shop isnt brilliantly spaced for wheelchairs and prams especially during peak periods. Again another fab local treat in the middle of Newland Ave!

The only reason I am unwilling to give them 5/5 is because of their delivery service, we have waited 1.5 hours for delivery from them before, and on one occasion a burger, bought for a friend who isn't a fan of their usual style of food, (advertised as 'with salad') not only came with only a gherkin slice and a ring of tired looking tomato but came in a burnt bap... not best pleased as we have had burgers from them packed full of salad and flavour.
