Most Disliked

While Cinda's Kitchen generally earns high marks, a few minor critiques emerge from guests. Some diners feel that on busy days, service can slow down, leading to longer wait times for food. Parking can be a challenge during peak hours, especially in the bustling Parade area. Additionally, those seeking a more extensive menu may find the offerings somewhat limited, though the focus on quality compensates for this. A few patrons also mention that while the desserts are fantastic, they could be a bit more varied to cater to different tastes. However, these concerns seem to be outweighed by the overall positive experience.

I have been to this cosy and nice for a photoshoot of some of their best-selling delicacies, and I had the pleasure to try their bacalhao salad. The croquettes absolutely fantastic and soft, rich in flavour and and aromas.

A Gem in Leamington!! Cinda and Andy are the most hospitable Portuguese ever! Great food - we had the prawns, duck, stew and beef and lots of yummylicious desserts!! Home-cooked meals in a warm and cozy restaurant. Absolutely love the vibes here.

Cinda’s Kitchen is hands down one of the best cafés in Leamington Spa! The owner is absolutely lovely—so welcoming and friendly, it really feels like a home away from home. The hospitality is amazing, and you can tell they genuinely care about their customers. The food is top-notch! Our go-to favourites are the chicken piri piri (either in a panini or with rice), their pasta, coffee, homemade cakes, and a proper good omelette. Everything is fresh, full of flavour, and made with love. It’s also dog-friendly, which is a huge plus! Perfect place to grab a bite and relax, whether you’re on your own, with friends, or bringing your pup along. If you’re in Leamington Spa, you have to visit Cinda’s Kitchen. Highly recommend! This should feel more personal and genuine—let me know if you want any tweaks!

Wonderful staff and wonderful place, not to speak about the amazing food. Cinda is a sparkling and really professional person and she has welcomed us warmly, making us feel at home. Our meal choice was recommended as this was our first time here. The pictures speak for themselves, so I will share them very soon on this review👌🏼 We loved everything, including the interiors, which are also art pieces by local artists and nice colours with comfortable furniture. I loved the experience and I will come back for sure ❤️😘

The food was impeccable, the service was extremely efficient and welcoming, the atmosphere was calm and exactly what I would expect from the reviews of the restaurant. The person who served me, fin was extremely nice and looked calm, setting the atmosphere from when the customer walks in to when they leave. Highly recommend visiting!

Small cosy venue. Nice, relaxed vibe. Portuguese and english dishes, from paninis and toasties to signature dishes. We opted for Arroz de pato, shredded duck, bacon and Portuguese style rice with salad, also Prego no prato, sirloin steak covered with fried eggs and rice, chips and salad. Complemented with sizzling garlic mushrooms.. we toasted with a glass of white and red Portuguese vino 🍷 😋 Post meal chef came to check we were satisfied, which was a nice touch. Overall, it is good value and would definitely come back. It was a lunchtime meal, and the venue was busy. I'm not sure if you can reserve tables though. Recommended.

Great place to eat and friendly staff, weekends can see this place rather lively and busy. We came in for brunch after reading positive reviews. Even though we were expecting good food, they still managed to surprise us how good it was. I think I had the best omelette ever, it was melting in my mouth. Don't take my word for it, check it yourself.
