Lord Leycester Cafe

The Lord Leycester became our favourite spot during our two day stay in Warwick. Thank you Stacey for your friendly waitressing, always willing to help with a smile. And thank you to the chef/owner for preparing a simple meal for me around her existing ingredients. Lovely atmosphere, great place to visit and revive with food and drink. Also thank you Gordon the welcoming brother during our stay. You are a gentleman. Can’t wait to visit again.

Stacey is wonderful She made such nice breakfast for us And extraordinary services Definitely will visit again

A Hidden Gem in a Historic Setting – The Perfect Sunday Roast or Cream Tea! Tucked away in the stunning Lord Leycester Hospital, this tea room is a well-kept secret. From the outside, you’d never guess that inside, you can indulge in one of the finest classic Sunday roasts. The quality of the food is nothing short of amazing— tasty meats, rich and flavourful gravy, and roast vegetables. Portions are spot on, leaving you satisfied but not overwhelmed. And if you have room for dessert, the brownie with ice cream is to die for—decadent, rich, and utterly irresistible. Service is warm and welcoming, making you feel like a regular even on your first visit. Adding to the charm, this historic gem is also a filming location for the BBC's Shakespeare & Hathaway, making it a must-visit for TV and history fans alike. Scattered throughout the space are treasures from the past, including an original chair used by King James I in 1617, giving the setting an extra sense of grandeur. Perhaps part of the reason the atmosphere felt even calmer and more intimate than usual is that the historic building itself is not open until March. It might be a little busier when visitors arrive. Whether you’re after a hearty Sunday meal or simply want to soak in the historic surroundings with a cup of tea, this hidden treasure is well worth discovering.

The cafe is in a beautifully restored hall, nice range of food, including takeaway drinks. A bit of a wait at busy times, otherwise very good.

Was amazing, stunning building, lovely atmosphere. Customer service was incredible, made a simple sunday roast between friends into an experience, thankyou to stacey again. Food was really good, roast potatoes were the best I’ve ever had, options were varied, starters were had a soup and it yummy. 10/10 it’s a hidden gem of Warwick, definitely coming back again
