Reviews of YayLo

A. L.

Lovely cafe just opposite side entrance to Marks and Spencer and makes a change from the too numerous coffee chains in the centre of town. Whilst the other independent coffee shops were closing at about 1630, YayLo was still going strong selling a variety of foods including coffees, cake and lunches. It was quite busy and our coffee was very nice. Place was keen and there was seating outside. Well worth a visit.

Awesome Awesome Awesome What can I say or start with! Handmade homemade scones (largest and freshest ever that I have seen ever) with steam coming out and enough for a large appetite like myself. Cheese Scone is something that I never had and that was an astonishingly savoury surprise. I will definitely recommend cheese scone to try something totally different with a ravishingly delicious taste. Courtesy: the staff’s courtesy was not artificial at all rather they made us feel comfortable and at home. Very warm welcoming team at YayLo. This is a place to definitely go. Seating: pls do not be put off by seeing tables taken in the coffee comfort. Rather they have a seating space downstairs too. What could be done to improve: please can you guys put up a sign outside the door that you have plenty of seating downstairs. We would have not entered due to seeing seats full but then we are glad we came in. Thank you YayLo team for a very very good experience you left us with. Well deserved five stars!

Great latte. The cream teas are some of the best I've tasted. A nice little place, hidden away off Readings high streets. Well worth a visit, you won't be disappointed. They specialise in gluten free foods too. Fantastic

Stopped to get a coffee and a snack, had 2 excellent coffees, and 2 truly gorgeous toasties....made to order, fresh ingredients, we had bacon brie cranberry rocket, and a cheese gherkin wild mustard. Not huge in size but exactly as you'd make at home with the same ingredients, good quality granary bread, fresh, absolutely lovely. Honestly best toasties we've had in a coffee shop. We sat outside and even when our granddaughter pushed the table over (hulk strength of a 21 month old lol) and sent my coffee flying smashing it into hundreds of pieces, the staff were just super understanding and chilled. Lovely staff, delighted they have joined us in Reading. Highly recommended.

Total yes ! Absolutely everything is gluten-free and delicious. Even the customers were calm and smiling. And I was treated like family on my first visit. I'm coming back, so many more things to try. This time, I had a cheese toast with mustard and gherkins, but it's a wide choice. And I will definitely have to try the different muffins and cakes, all baked there. Well done guys, it's not easy to be good at food, service and atmosphere at the same time, but you made it, thank you.

This was a great place to spend an afternoon with a friend - fantastic cappuccinos and delicious teas. Huge range of 'free from' cakes and food items and the staff were lovely. Also really liked the Halloween decorations!

My new favourite coffee stop in Reading. The coffee is wonderful. Staff are so nice. I haven’t tried the cakes or food yet but they look delicious. Great stop for me and highly recommended.

K. S.

I regularly visit YayLo for unsweetened hot chocolate and a piece of cake. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is relaxing. Everything really is gluten free. Lovely place, so much better than the big chains.

My favourite coffee shop in Reading! Coffee is really good and the pastries too. Recommend to everyone, for breakfast, lunch, brunch or just for a take away. They also delivered!

I ordered blackberry, lemon and vanilla sponge cake cake was superb. Communication was really good by the owner and took notice of my complaint. Very good gluten free bakery in the area 👍

E. P.

I had a nice scone and a latte and they were very nice and tasty. The servers were very attentive as well! Recommend it even if you are not gluten free!

I find this place to be a gem in Reading town centre. It probably has the best scones and brownies I had in quite awhile. Would highly recommending that you drop by while in the area

Our go-to cafe in Reading TC. Excellent coffee (and cakes, if you are so inclined!) and comfortable surroundings.

M. S.

The donuts are amazing, better than gluten ones! all other cakes are delish as well, very partial to the carrot cake! coffees are great as well...and I'm not even gluten intolerant to be clear

M. D.

Had a coffee and walnut cake here along with a banana milkshake and it was so yummy!! I am looking forward to trying all their delicious bakes and some of them are even refined sugar free!! So happy to have discovered this place and I think it will now become my go-to cafe! It's truly a hidden gem in Reading :)

I ordered a box of assorted cakes as a "Welcome to your new home" present and the service received was excellent. The cakes were delicious and everyone was extremely impressed with both the taste and the presentation which was fabulous. I can't recommend Yaylo highly enough and a huge thank you to Billie and the team for making it so special. I have also visited the cafe on a few occasions and will definitely be back, great coffee, great cakes and great service.

C. R.

So, so good! Great coffee and the best gluten-free cake I‘ve had in the 5 years I’ve been diagnosed with Celiac. Gluten-free or not, you will not regret stopping by!
