Fantastic place where you can chill with friends. I don't personally do shisha as I don't smoke. However I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food which was to a high standard. I got a lamb burger which was a gourmet patty in a brioche bun. The chips were fab too, skin on fries. They also do desserts which looked amazing. I also got a chai latte. The balance of the sugar and spice was perfect. All coffee is served with a biscoff biscuit. The ambiance of the place was lovely and there was ample seating. There were 12 of us in our group and we had a really good time here. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The service was second to none. I would definitely come back here for the food and coffee! Well done Cafe Chimini!

Blu Havana and Rockstar £20 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Decided to drop by Cafe Chimini as I was in Leicester for something. Upon entry we were greeted by a lovely lady called Dil who was the owner. This is one of the lounges serving savaana so asked for a recommendation on their best Savaana mix and Dil recommended Blu Havana and Rockstar so ordered that and 2 mocktails and went to sit down. The lounge is very spacious and airy which I like especially on a hot day as it was. Shisha arrived within 10 minutes in a smoke connoisseur Shakespeare which I love and most lounges especially in london should start to introduce them. Flavour was very strong I must admit, you can taste the berries but was quite strong on the citrus side. Service was brilliant the owner actually came down and sat next to us and had a chat which I find nice. Seating was comfortable and the vibe was quite but this was because we went around 2:30pm. Cash and cards accepted with plenty of pay and display parkings in the surrounding roads. Check their instagram as they do various offers.

So not having been to any Shisha cafes for a while (due to covid) and not been to this particular place for over 5 years I think, I must say its a lot more cosy now than it was before improved interior and paintings/writings has glammed up this spot really well. I didnt really get much apart from Shisha and water but they did have some dessert cake slices on display looked amazing, However me being on diet it was a no go for me. Smoke I would rate this 8/10 got the Savanna flavour which was rockstar with blue havana mixed nice smooth smoke from a special edition lounge pipe which was insane I mean very GOOD smoke, my friend had decided to get Frozen Lime with Cuban Mojito and bit of Mint. We stayed for over an hour only because it was a quiet early evening smoke and not many people about, which was a good thing of course post covid fears *they had hand sanitiser* placed all around for people to use. I'll attach some photos I took of this place.

I'm not one who leaves reviews but today is an EXCEPTION!!! TODAY I experienced a high level of customer service and warm welcome. I decided to visit this place with my wife from the second we walked in we experienced a high level of customer service. Ashley at the till was amazing very very helpful and informative. Food was AMAZING best food I've tasted in a shisha lounge. Dil the owner was soo welcoming and made us feel soo comfortable. Went to ask to have my wifes green tea warmed and the owner said to the worker to give us another on the house. Had their milk cake which was amazing. A the end before we left wife decided she wanted to take some home so went to the till to order and she informed the guy behind the till to give us one extra on the house (AGAIN). KEEP IT UP GUYS YOUR SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT. TRULY I COULDN'T FAULT ANYTHING. AMAZING EXPERIENCE. THANK YOU CAFE CHIMNEY

Service is immaculate, the new layout is comfy + the staff are ever so nice. Amazing flavours, for them elite shish a smokers who know which flavour to smoke come to this place. When good is ordered this place will serve out the food at the given time by them unlike other cafe's where we go check it up to double check if the food we ordered is in the making or not. Outstanding place to watch the football, great music amazing people
