I've been a regular at Brucciani since the 1960s. Last week, I enjoyed a delightful Bakewell tart alongside one of their excellent coffees at their Fox Lane location. In my opinion, they are truly the best café around. The service is consistently good, the food and drinks are always fresh, and the place is very clean with a wonderful atmosphere. There's something for everyone here. I highly recommend it!

This charming little restaurant holds a special place in my heart from my childhood. They offer lovely food and drinks at reasonable prices, all in a clean and relaxed environment. The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming, providing excellent service to their customers. Brucciani's has been a significant part of many people's history in Leicestershire. It's truly sad to see that the restaurant has closed its doors this year.
