Nestled in Ruddington, this café has garnered mixed reviews from visitors. While many appreciate its friendly staff and the delightful flavors of their coffee, pastries, and breakfast options, others lament inconsistent service and occasionally lukewarm dishes. The atmosphere is inviting, though some find it lacks warmth. Gluten-free and vegetarian choices are available, appealing to diverse dietary needs. Patrons praise the café's great location for a post-activity meal, yet suggest improvements in attentiveness and food temperature. With a solid selection of cakes and a clean environment, the café holds potential for a satisfying visit, if minor issues are addressed.

What 78jenniek dislikes about Philo's Espresso:
Nipped in for a coffee, very poor service regulars ordering over the top of us, the lady got our order wrong we received a patronising response, in the end we left as just seemed to much trouble for her, plenty of places for coffee in Ruddington, shame but won't bother again. View all feedback.

We always pop in here whilst passing through Ruddington, I always have a flat white (really nice), and we share a piece of Bakewell tart between us (tasty). Always manage to find a table to sit at, which can be a problem in some places. Staff are really friendly.

Perfect location for a spot of breakfast after the park run. Limited breakfast menu but vegetarian friendly. Tomatoes, mushroom and egg on toast arrived luke warm. Requested brown sauce and was given ketchup? Staff were friendly but not very attentive to customers upstairs. It was a little on the cold side upstairs with classic FM playing to a younger customer audience. Overall an average experience, could have been executed better with hot food, more attentive staff and positive vibe. Missing a trick with the post park run refuel!

A large group of us came in for morning tea and the service, though it started slow, soon picked up and was really efficient. My caramel shortbread was the best I’ve ever had. Central location with short term parking opposite. It has a roomy upper floor which has a lovely atmosphere, plus a smaller room with club chairs. The loos were clean.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic and reasonably priced. I highly recommend it. There are plenty of available seats and the cakes and salad bar are exceptional. Don't miss out on this place.
