Coffee & Co

Situated on Sun Way in Leicester’s LE3 area, Coffee & Co offers a welcoming spot that feels like a nod to the neighbourhood’s pace of life. This café blends the casual ease of a local haunt with thoughtful touches, making it a convenient stop for those after more than just a regular caffeine fix.

The atmosphere is relaxed yet lively, with a friendly buzz from both solo visitors popping in for a morning cappuccino and groups gathering for casual breakfasts or business catch-ups. Staff maintain a steady warmth that doesn’t waver even on busier or warmer days, which helps keep the experience grounded rather than rushed. The vibe suggests it’s a spot where regulars know their way around the menu and newcomers feel encouraged to try something a bit different.

The menu leans into variety without overwhelming, offering bubble tea alongside more classic café staples like coffee, hot chocolate, and fresh juices. For those who prefer something savory, options like smoked ham with salad, various sandwiches (including ham & salad, and tuna mayo & cheese), plus authentic vegetable samosas, fit neatly into a quick lunch or light meal. The local angle shows through the use of artisan-baked cakes and baklava, which add a homely, crafted feel to the treats on offer.

Visitors often appreciate the combination of consistent service speed and food quality, ideal for grabbing a fueling breakfast or hosting informal meetings. The freshness of hot food and beverages stands out, whether you're settling in for a sit-down or ordering delivery for a relaxed workday at home. The milkshakes here earn particular mention for their creamy texture, complementing the café’s approachable menu.

This café works best for locals who enjoy a spot that accommodates both quick stops and more leisurely conversations — the kind of place where colleagues and friends naturally fall into easy chats over well-made drinks and uncomplicated, satisfying food. Mid-mornings through early afternoons tend to be the times when Coffee & Co’s atmosphere feels most in sync with the neighbourhood rhythm.
