Reviews


Overall, the restaurant in the heart of the Northern Quarter offers a cozy ambiance and friendly staff. However, some customers were disappointed with the changes in the menu and the quality of the food, such as overpowering vinegar in some dishes and poor quality lamb skewers. The small plates were deemed average and expensive by some, but others enjoyed the eclectic menu choices and the excellent food quality, especially the hummus and chocolate mousse. While some experienced slow service and unsatisfactory Yorkshire puddings, others praised the attentive and cheerful team. The restaurant was noted as a great place for brunch and lunch, with quick service and good attention from the staff. Despite some concerns about the lack of low-carb options for health-conscious diners, the overall experience was positive with beautiful atmosphere and decoration, making it a place worth returning to, on average, Evelyn's Cafe Bar has been rated as 4.5.

The avocado on toast with halloumi and coffee for £22 is not a good value. There wasn't even an egg on it, lol.
