Reviews of The coffee obsessive
G.
There are so many choices of #vegan cake and other food. The coffee is exquisite! The barrista, Iqbal, is definitely coffee obsessive, he ensures the best coffee experience, providing traditional as well experimental coffee. This coffee place is definitely a MUST.

When you walk into a store and there’s a cupping score next to the coffee selection you know you’re in for a treat. This might just be the most beautiful coffee shop I’ve had the pleasure of visiting. Everything is meticulously laid out and feels like you’re walking into the mind of someone who is, as the name suggests, obsessed with coffee.
The owner knows precisely what coffee he’s serving, from the origins, to the notes, to the best combination for each blend. This culminated into a coffee experience that is very very difficult to come by.
The espresso was by a mile better than any I had tried in the last decade. Perfect temperature, full bodied, and a pleasure to drink. The pour over was just on a different level. Clarity unlike any other, each note distinguishable, and as smooth as 600 gallons of double cream.
Even if you’re not a true coffee fanatic the food menu offers a fantastic selection, and caters for a variety of dietary requirements. I pulled the trigger on a sweet potato sourdough sandwich and each mouthful was as good as the previous.
Even if you’re not a coffee fanatic, the coffee obsessive is a must visit.
If you are a crazy coffee person, this is paradise. There’s a brilliant selection of coffee beans to choose from and the owner is so knowledgeable that he’ll help you decide regardless of how specific your preferences may be.

The Best Coffee shop in Leicester hands down. The guy just knows what he's doing and you can tell he loves what he does, he's completely obsessed with Coffee! I used to have 2 sugars in my coffee as it always tasted bitter, its the total opposite here. You can really tastes all the flavours and its sweet enough without sugar.
Super cool shop very "London"
Lots of great Merch too!!
S. V.
Really good coffee, one of the better ones. Staff are really friendly too
D. P.
Literally just got out of this shop and am currently sitting in a restaurant nearby awaiting my lunch.
These guys know their stuff when it comes to coffee.
The "Milkycake" espresso I had with notes of Cardommon was phenomenal.
Smooth to the mouth, balanced on the palate and probably the best espresso I've ever had.
Ever.
Just go there. I've found my new coffee shop, and will be heading back for another espresso as soon as I've finished my lunch!
A. A.
Niche coffee shop bringing you some of the best coffee available. Knowledgeable friendly owner. Looking forward to post lockdown visits. P.S post lockdown visits did not disappoint!
B. J.
The best specialty coffee shop in the country, never mind Leicester. Their combination of quality, consistency, aesthetics and brilliant staff is unrivalled. I’m soon moving away from Leicester and will genuinely miss this place.
Z. P.
By far the best coffee shop in Leicester. I cannot fault anything that I have tried from here. The staff are amazingly friendly and super helpful. Great coffee, great customer service.
M. S.
A hidden gem in Leicester! I was surprised with this find. Lovely coffee and cakes and knowledgeable barista named Mohamed. We need more of these local coffee shops!
A. Z.
The care and love that has gone into this place is second to none. The owners have created a spectacular place and the customers rolling on in are digging the vibe. Cheers for having me!

Found the coffee obsessive a few months ago and it’s now our go to coffee place when we visit Leicester. Coffee is great (love the Matcha), staff are friendly and love that they have gluten free cakes - I’ve tried 2 and they were both so delicious!
G. C.
THE BEST PLACE FOR COFFEE & FOOD.
Every time I go it never fails from the brilliant customer service, fantastic coffee and by far the best toasted sandwich’s in TOWN!
Y. P.
Best cheese toastie I've had so far!!! Great atmosphere, great coffee.
D. W.
Amazing coffee
Delectable food
Insane knowledge
All over... A FANTASTIC coffee house
N.
Not to be dramatic but the coffee I ordered from here was eye-opening; ‘till today I have been drinking mediocre coffee but today I learnt what spectacular coffee tastes like. I’ll most definitely be returning in the near future! If circumstances allowed I’d be in everyday to get my daily caffeine elixir. Also the baristas were lovely and oh so welcoming!
R. V.
Lovely coffee. Great Baristas. Cool plants and seating. Love it!!
p.
Absolutely amazing. There are a number of nice coffee shops in Leicester but this is a cut above. The coffee is sensational - water filtered on site, staff who really understand coffee and how to brew it. The shop has also enabled me to get into home brewing more - with friendly, informed advice and a nice selection of equipment to purchase. The coffee they sell to drink and to buy is superb and sourced from the best roasters both nationally and internationally. Lovely owner and staff. Great cakes. One of my favourite shops in Leicester and beyond. If you want to see how great coffee can taste then try it out.
S. S.
Love the fact that this place is unique. The coffee is brilliant and taste amazing! I love the fact that I don’t get a bucket of coffee like the big brands. The owner knows his stuff and comes across super passionate which is reflected in the taste of the coffee. The cakes are on point and different and the food too is just yummy! If you want real coffee head here and you won’t be disappointed
S. I. V.
Such great coffee. Such lovely people - what more do you need? Oh wait.. and their treats, are just so gorgeous! After living in Australia and being spoilt with such great coffee there - this was a treasure to find. And you’ll find us, talking to The lovely and friendly coffee shop owner and getting our regular coffee’s most weekends!
R. D.
Without exaggerating, this is likely to be the best coffee you'll taste at an independent coffee shop. Lovely staff, very helpful. Owner knows his coffee. Food options are excellent. Highly recommended
A. B.
This is number 1 of my 2 favourite coffee spots in Leicester. This is my number 1 place for coffee in the UK! That’s how good it is. Having lived in Melbourne, we know what good coffee is! It’s a small cup but it’s perfect in roastiness, taste and aroma. I’d rather have a small tasty cup of coffee than a large watered down cup at your chain restaurants.
I. B.
This place is a gem for anyone who seriously loves coffee. Iqbal is such a friendly knowledgeable owner of the coffee shop, who’s passion and knowledge for his craft is second to none. The cakes are scrummy and complement his drinks amazingly well. With lots of new coffee roasters and their amazing coffees being stocked this is such a welcome to Leicester and his non pretentious approach will I’m certain create a real buzz and loyal following as he broadens our knowledge and taste buds of what real coffee should taste like ☺️
Y. J.
The coffee quality at this place is unbelievable - these guys really know their stuff with coffee! Had an amazing Costa Rica variety which was truly outstanding.
I also grabbed a truffle-mushroom toastie which was absolutely delicious and quite filling - a perfect treat to go with my coffee.
I can't wait to come back - thanks guys!
I. M.
Amazing coffee, Excellent service, Clean and quiet place.
Limited spaces ground floor though.
W. A.
Went down to this new place to get a coffee. The guys are amazing and really friendly and definitely know their stuff. You can buy coffee to take home as well and they will help you find the perfect coffee for you out of a big selection they have. Coffee tasted amazing and food was even better. Definitely recommend, and will be coming back again, often 👍👍👍
C. M.
This place serves the most excellent coffee always prepared to perfection. Service is good and staff are friendly. Sour dough cheese toasty is sublime. You have to go.
L. L.
These great guys supply top notch coffees at a high level! And their sandwiches are absolutely amazing! I love the Cheeese & Kimchi toasted sandwich. It’s fantastic! Also the coffeeshop vibe is super cool, staff is very friendly, polite and always happy to help with any information regarding coffees they supply. My favourite coffee place in town! Highly recommend it!
J. F.
Delicious coffee. Milk was done to perfection compared to other places that cook it. Coffee itself was quite fruity and chocolatey so no need for sugar. One of the best in Leicester.
F. M.
The best latte you will taste in your life. Friendly staff too.
R. W.
Lovely salad of spinach, avocado, sweet potato, peppers and mushrooms with a pesto dressing.
s.
Delicious cakes, turmeric latte isn't all that. Music too loud, had to ask for it to be turned down.
Man walked in with 2 scary dogs. Not ideal(unless guide dogs).
A. N.
Lovely place with amazing customer service. The owner is really friendly and goes that extra mile to make sure that customers are happy and at ease.The coffee and hot chocolate are delicious. However, I have noticed that a few scruffy and undesirable looking people have been congregating around the shop. They have littered the street with unused sugar sachets and utensils. I recognise a few faces from Evington Road. I know that it’s not the owners fault but it would be great if he could ask them to stop loitering as Allandale Road is a civilised and family friendly area.
N. A.
Amazing new coffee place with a real passion for their craft. They offer a wide variety of drinks, including coffee from various regions and in various styles!
More importantly they don’t use the cheap oat milk alternatives! They’re one of the few places that actually stock Oatly 😍.
They sell other drinks like Beetroot / Tumeric Lattes & Hot chocolate, as well sweet treats, so there’s something for everyone.
I rarely drink coffee these days, but when I do, I know where I’ll be going 🙌.
S.
Always a pleasure to get a coffee from here, everyone who works here knows there stuff regarding how to brew coffee. Highly recommend the drive over
A. S.
Perfectly brewed.
And their customer service is top notch . The staff is very friendly . One of the best coffee places in Leicester.
C. G.
Today was my 2nd time so I'm confident the 1st wasn't a fluke.. it's the best brew in Leicester. It's not local for me but I'm glad otherwise I'd be fat and high! Worth the detour
J. S.
Great coffee. Can make a proper flat white. Decent beans
R. C.
They have gorgeous coffee and it's clear they really care about the quality and sources. Really friendly and great service. Also a delightful ice matcha!
D. E.
Went to try out the new coffee shop on Saturday - Staff lovely and our drinks were OK but the cups are tiny and I wasn't blown away. We did want soya hot chocolate but had to have an alternative which was fine but I would think soya milk was standard these days - little disappointed.
E. O.
Amazing coffee, knowledgeable staff, lovely setting.
S. I.
Simply the BEST mocha I have had in my life…
A. H.
Coffee admirers assemble! Great vibe about the place, carefully selected roasts and of course a good selection of cakes and cold drinks (German coconut water is ace).
R. J.
Ace coffee, ace cakes and fantastic service. What a lovely place. Definitely recommend.
Eat in or take away

Stumbled upon this absolute gem when meeting a friend in Leicester and just had the best experience - the knowledge & passion of the owner was just amazing and I will make a trip to Leicester to buy coffee beans from now on! Thank you
E. B.
Best coffee I’ve had since moving to the UK. It’s like a slice of Melbourne on my doorstep. Couldn’t recommend it enough.
