Visited here yesterday after a friend recommended. What a beautiful little place! We were served with great big smiles and real enthusiasm, everyone working there was genuinely happy to be there. They couldn't do enough for us. We ordered one gluten free afternoon tea and two American afternoon teas. The gluten free tea consisted of three different types of sandwiches, vegetable crisps a homemade scone with jam and cream and some homemade desserts which were all beautiful! The American teas consisted of three mini burgers, fries, a scone with cream and jam and again a selection of homemade deserts which were all amazing!!!!
The afternoon teas were £10pp and including a hot drink!!!!!! Fantastic price for something that was a real treat!!
I will definitely be returning and recommending this gorgeous little find to friends.
Thankyou to all who looked after us yesterday xxxx
We were having a over night stay in Coventry so I'd had, had a look for cafes online before our visit. I came across this place and thought we really need to try it. It was lovely, very pretty and kitch. The staff were very welcoming and found us a space on a table as they were very busy but moved us once a table became available. The food we ordered was sold out but there was plenty of choice so wasn't a problem. The food was lovely and served quickly. This is just a lovely little place that's hidden but what a gem once you've found it!!
Such a cozy and vintage place! It's ridiculous that a lot of people don't know about it and at the same time I love that it's a hidden gem. Food is great and affordable. Their desserts are divine. For every 5 pounds spent you get a stamp for free coffee or cake as well as student discount when you show your student ID.
I cannot stress how friendly and helpful, open-minded and considerate their staff is. Rising Caffe is run by previously homeless and substance addicted people and all proceeds go to fun their recovery which is amazing, because most businesses turn away from people with these problems. What's not to love?
Me and my partner have visited here on a few occasions now and each visit has been very good. The prices are very good plenty to choose from on the menu as well as daily specials like different soups cakes and drinks.
I really like the design and decoration of the cafe especially because of where it is located built into the cathedral. Staff are always very friendly and welcoming.
Would defiantly recommend a visit and to try the afternoon tea well worth the money.
We liked it very much. Very friendly and helpful. Nice food. Excellent value.
Great place to chill and have an English tea. The scones were huge and delicious! Tea was very nice too. The prices were reasonable and the staff were friendly. Can recommend this place! Ambience was pleasant too. It's very near Pool Meadow bus stop so getting there for a piece of cake should be a piece of cake.
Excellent place to visit! Truly a destination location. Vintage decor, amazing food. Beautiful teas. We ordered the Winston for two. A LOT of food, and not too much of any one thing. Waitstaff was stellar! Glad to know my purchase and visit are going to such a good cause.
Amazing experience at the Rising cafe, excellent service and cozy atmosphere :) the place is underneath the cathedral and it's nicely decorated (you can feel the Christmas spirit already). The menu is traditional with options for proper food, breakfast, afternoon tea or cakes. My sausages were exquisite!! Also the choice of cakes and scones was extra, all looking delicious! We'll be back for sure next time in Coventry 😊
Went here for afternoon tea, I didn't even know it existed. Wow!! What an amazing kind of magical place. The staff were outstanding with some of the best customer service I've seen. The food was fantastic and the scones were like little pieces of heaven in my mouth. I will definitely be returning, for me it is a special place also as it employs people who just need a little helping hand. Fantastic place!!!
Brilliant charity-run cafe in the cathedral grounds, staffed by volunteers. This place is a hidden gem - food was great, portions were healthy, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back again!
Cozy, sweet with lots of little treats. The food small but plenty full and both my hot chocolate and coffee were great! Not five stars as my sandwich's bread was quite dry
My first visit after a friend's reccomendation. I was not disappointed. Spoilt for choice on the menu but finally settled on afternoon tea. What a treat! So full that I doubt I'll eat again today 😃 already booked a return visit.
