Cafe Noir - Southend-on-Sea

Discovered this cafe a few years but due to covid we haven't been back until yesterday and today only to discover that it's been taken over by Simone and what a pleasant surprise. The coffee was as good as before and lunch was freshly cooked and very tasty add to that very jovial and friendly staff made this a very pleasant atmosphere and visit .we wish you luck with your new venture. Our friends has travelled down from Sheffield to stay with us for the new year and said it was worth the trip just for the coffee. See you again soon.

Found this by chance while shopping with my daughter this morning and what a find it was. We both had a full English which was cooked from fresh and all the produce was of high quality. Will definitely be going back if only for the friendly atmosphere and being spoken to in Italian!

Very nice service lovely food attention to detail other cafes could learn a lot! Really enjoyable vist will be back!!

Easily the best cappucino and espresso in Southend. Refreshingly honest, quality Italian food served on plates, not slates and if you need to sit outside for a fag, it's quieter than some other roadside locations.

A small but very friendly cafe. The food is yummy and the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. I was able to sit outside and enjoy my tea and cake. They have new seating now which is a bit posh. But still the same old positive atmosphere where I could have a quick snack and just watch the world go by.
