Finkins - Shepshed — Restaurant in Charnwood

First time visit and was hoping for some type of bacon or sausage bap, roll, or sandwich unfortunately it appears the menu has no hot subjects such as that The menu is small as is the cafe itself, that is not a negative toast/toasties are an option I also noticed a salad section so that may be the order of the day in Finkins. On the real positive side, the coffee can easily hold its own with any of the big boy coffee establishments It appears dogs are welcome, that is an option for any patron to take up, being as the cafe is only small inside, I do have a 🐕 and I do not take him into fresh food establishments, solely that is my choice as my preference is not to have dogs where there is fresh food being served whether the dogs are well behaved or not. A plus for me was to see a small bookcase with what I presume are charitable books, although at a glance, I saw nothing that caught my eye. I would return to Finkins purely for their coffee, but not if I fancied a breakfast type item, which truthfully that is my usual intentions when visiting Cafe's. Finkins is quite popular and the clientele I would guess made up largely of regulars, so there is always an nice atmosphere in those...

I was at this coffee shop for around 2 hours as I was waiting for a colleague who was stuck in terrible traffic to pick me up, I only had 2 coffees whilst I was here but the staff never made me feel rushed, I often have to find a place to wait during my working day and people are not always too happy about you taking up a table when you’re only having drinks but the staff at Finkin were lovely and friendly and never made me feel uncomfortable even when the shop started to get busy with lots of parents coming in with children after school. I love Forge coffee in fact I think it the best you can get and I was so pleased to see this was the bean they used, the latte’s I had were delicious. I didn’t eat here but everything I saw going to other people looked really delicious 🤤 Lovely little gem with great staff,...

It was our first visit to Finkins since their move from Hall Croft. The new space is smart with around 12-14 tables plus a log burner seating area for coffee in the winter.

We had eggs Benedict, eggs royale and a toasted teacake plus coffee and orange juice. For £22 this is brilliant value.

The staff are really friendly and the food was on point. Nowhere around Shepshed does eggs Benedict so it’s perfect to have this on our doorstep. High chairs are also available for little ones which was a relief for us.

Coffee here is a must! It’s going to be...
