On my many travels to Leicester I keep on noticing Teatime when I walk up and down Granby Street. Visited Teatime on the Sunday 23rd February 2025, about 12:30pm in the early afternoon. This cafe was not all that busy but had a few customers dining inside. This place is fairly new to me, its a bit fancy looking and has a nice interior. Went to the payment area and I told the lady that I am going to dine inside, so she gave me a menu to look at. I ordered the Teatime Special Fries (£8), Pistachio French Toast (£8) and Green Tea (£2). In total £18.00 The Teatime Special Fries was a filling meal, it had so many different items on it. While the Pistachio French Toast was soft and sweet. It came with grinded pistachios, chopped strawberries and bananas.

Exceptional Service and Warm Smiles at Tea Time Cafe! I had the pleasure of visiting Tea Time Cafe in Leicester, and I just have to give a huge shoutout to SARA, From the moment I walked in, she greeted me with the warmest smile and made me feel right at home. Her attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and genuine care for every customer truly set her apart. The service was flawless — Sara was quick, efficient, and always made sure I had everything I needed without me having to ask. Whether it was recommending the perfect cake and making sure my meal was just right, her professionalism and kindness shone through every step of the way. Sara’s positive energy really makes it a standout spot. I left feeling not only satisfied with my food but also uplifted by the delightful experience she created. Travelled from Coventry to visit, will be back soon!

Tea Time in Leicester serves a really good cup of tea – rich in flavour and just the right balance. It’s a popular spot though, so it can get quite busy, especially during peak times. Worth a visit if you’re after a proper tea, just be prepared for the crowds.

Not bad of a place visit, but having lived in the middle east I'd have to say the Karak is 20x sweeter and has more sugar than over there. Prices are much higher here but I guess that's comparing to middle east prices. I'd recommend a visit, just to try it out and I have to say the atmosphere and staff are nice.

Visited Tea Time Leicester and enjoyed their tea overall. The taste is genuinely good—flavorful and well-prepared with a nice aroma that draws you in. You can tell they care about quality. My only suggestion would be to make the tea a bit thicker/stronger. It could use slightly more brewing time or tea leaves to give it that fuller body some tea lovers prefer. Apart from that, the flavor profile is spot-on and very satisfying. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, and the prices are fair for what you get. It's a solid spot for tea enthusiasts in Leicester, and I appreciate their attention to proper tea preparation. Would definitely recommend giving them a try, and I'll be back to explore more of their menu. A small tweak to the strength would make it absolutely perfect!

Tea Time is an excellent restaurant that consistently delivers high-quality food at reasonable prices. Having frequented their branches in Qatar, where they enjoy a stellar reputation, I can confidently say they live up to the hype. I highly recommend giving it a try!

Tried the Teatime in Doha, therefore had to see if this was as good. The interior of the location is very clean and well put together. Plenty of parking close by. The menu itself has a vast amount of choice for food. The tea was nice, not as good as Doha but nice enough. The food portions were very good and tasty.
