This is one of the best kept secrets in Leicester. A lovely, cosy homely little restaurant with the…read moremost quaint decor you've ever seen. It is very local and friendly and all the food is made fresh onsite. Go for a cup of tea and some homemade cake or go all out on some fantastic meal, quite often veggie, always organic, fresh and delicious. I must say it's not the cheapest place for what is quite often simple fare, but it really is so good as not to be ignored.

Enjoyed our breakfast at this cafe. The place is small with tables close together. There isn't much…read moredecor inside, but the patio would be nice on a warmer day. You order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. For drinks, we ordered a pot of tea and double expresso. My husband has ordered a lot of expresso this trip and it isn't always quite right, this one was perfect. I opted for the smashed avocado toast on sesame bread and my husband ordered the English breakfast. Mine was excellent and his was perfectly fine, not anything out of the ordinary.

They may not serve much beyond sandwiches, platters and jacket potatoes, but what they do serve is very well made and tastes brilliant and the menu is on their website for potential customers to check before popping in for a bite to eat. For dessert, their waffles are gorgeous and the icecream sundaes are all very tempting, and the frappé that I got with my meal was fantastic. All in all, I'd thoroughly recommend this eatery!

The service in the Restaurant was good. Nice friendly people and greeted with a smile. However I would describe the atmosphere as "God's waiting room" as the average age must of been 70. Once the food was ordered it only took ten minutes to arrive at your table which was a positive. Saying that I would of preferred them to spend a little time on the food as the food was incredibly bland and tasteless. The way I would describe the food would be rushed home food so yourself could probably do a better job! I had the mussels there and they were boring and the sauce it was just tomato. Overall the restaurant is pretty and has nice staff but the food isn't special. While the food is edible it's not something I'll probably ever come back to have again.

An outstanding Coffeeshop and more. Located inside the business center with excellent (and free!)…read moreInternet capability and countless nooks to work and meet. Their coffee is excellent, many and varied breakfast options from American pancakes to full English breakfast and many other things in between from pastries to sausage sandwiches. Their lunch options are also good, reasonably priced and varied. It is self service, but if they know where you are sitting then it is table service. Why doesn't every town have one (or more) of these?? Convenient parking at the NCP by the nearby Curve Theater - and if you stamp your NCP ticket here then the charges for Peking for a few hours is extremely reasonable! Two thumbs up

Left bank is a very casual yet sophisticated restaurant. On first impressions, it appears just to…read morebe a pub, and you would expect average pub food. But the food is suprisingly good, delicious in fact. They serve all sorts of food, from sandwiches and salads, to roasts, all types of fish and even some West Indian dishes, and I've never had a bad experience. The evening menu is quite expensive, but it really is worth it. It is very cosy and it has a very relaxed atmosphere, making you feel right at home straight away. There is a small garden at the back, which only holds a couple of tables, but if you are lucky enough to get one of them on a Summer's day then hold on to it because its a sun trap and a very pleasent way to spend the afternoon. Make sure that you visit the toilets aswell as they are very fun: they are based on the Disney school of hospitality which places emphasis on the importance of nice toilets. And these ones definatley live up to it - the ladies are decorated with feminist quotes and newspaper articles to provide entertainment during your trip. I have yet to visit the mens for obvious reasons, but I am told that they're nice too.

The last time I visited I went with a party of 18 people including 2 children. We had the set party menu they offer and all the dishes provided for us were fantastic, they took special attention at catering for my vegetarian guest and made sure the children had food they liked too. There was so much food to go round for us all, so we all had a really good meal. The food came out in good time and the staff gave great customer service. It a must visit for anyone who fancies a bit of the Mediterranean in a restaurant with a fantastic atmosphere.
