Fantastic lunch here. The food was to die for and the freshly squeezed orange juice was gorgeous. The mozzarella focaccia was so flavourful and the strawberry and vanilla sundae was absolutely next level. Our server, Esin was so lovely and attentive and even surprised me with a piece of passion fruit cheesecake (which tasted incredible) as I’m halfway through my pregnancy and was out shopping with my mum. Will definitely be returning!
We came wanting to try something new today and the lovely Esin recommended the lentil salad with added chicken and it was wonderful. The service and the time taken to listen to our cravings and recommend was delightful! It’s showed she really listened! Helena the manager as well is always so welcoming. See you again very soon!
What an amazing place for breakfast! The food was delicious and our server, Maria, was lovely, polite and attentive. Such a shame that we didn’t have room for a dessert, but we will definitely be returning to try them.
I had an amazing experience at San Carlo, the staff were so helpful and kind and very quick with the service especially Esin and Dom who work there are impeccable and make sure that I have the best service each time. The food is always cooked to perfection by the chef and the staff always look after me. You must try their caesar salad and cinnamon cappuccino!
I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Gran Cafe by San Carlo! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. One of the highlights of my visit was how halal-friendly the menu was, which made it even more enjoyable and accessible. A huge shoutout to Esîn and Laura, who provided exceptional service throughout. They were both incredibly efficient, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. Their friendly and professional approach truly elevated the experience, making us feel welcome and well taken care of. If you’re looking for a place with delicious food, great service, and a welcoming ambiance, Gran Cafe by San Carlo is definitely worth a visit!
