Leonard’s Coffee House

An enjoyable lunch outside with our little dog. The coffees were nice, as was the lunch! Plenty of seats inside and out. There’s also a great selection of bakes!!

Went two mornings in a row a few months ago. Although a bit cramped downstairs there is a first floor room which is spacious but lacking atmosphere. The food was top notch and the coffee very good too. Can recommend the French
Toast and the Pancake stack with bacon and maple syrup😋😋😋

Been to Leonard's Coffee House a couple of times now, and it's the pancake stack that keep me coming back. They are fluffy and not overly sweet which makes them well accompanied by the maple syrup and bacon. The coffees have been good, not overly milky flat whites, so you can actually taste the coffee. The cafe has a cosy atmosphere, nestled into the corner building at the end of a row.

Best coffee shop in Durham. Drinks are better than Flat White and the food is just as good.
Hesitant to give it 5 stars... Selfishly I don't want to become super popular 🤦

Best Chai I have had in the UK yet! And I’m an authentic chai seeker. The food always comes out looking 5 star and tastes perfect every time. Making our visits a weekly ritual JUST for the Biscoff Billionaire Mocha, wow! Great friendly service as well, even if there’s a queue to be seated you always feel welcome. Thank you 🙏🏻

A lovely café serving delicious coffee and freshly made food

It's a small area downstairs, didn't go upstairs, had pancakes and tea which were lovely, staff were friendly and service good, would visit again but would book a reservation.

Great hidden away restaurant for brunch. Do book because it was busy all the Saturday am we were there and the great quality of the food tells you why it is busy. You may have to wait some time for your food if it is busy....but relax and enjoy. I enjoyed the background music, which I'd not often notice

Delightful morning coffee and pancakes at this quaint cafe.

Leonard’s is set off of the high street and perched near the riverside which makes it much quieter than other local cafes.

I visited this Saturday 6th May and ordered a piccolo with cold milk which came quickly and was served with a smile by a team member called Tarika. It was rich, bitter, and delicious :) The maple syrup and bacon pancake stack was great value for money. Best pancakes this end of County Durham, in my humble opinion.

Would highly rate this cafe!!!

Amazing cakes that go great with a grand cup of coffee

Lovely quaint cafe, just outside the main area, worth finding. Beautiful food and coffee, good service.

Best pancake ever had. Excellent coffee

Really, really good breakfast place. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for. The french toast was excellent - very naughty!

Great little cafe. Exceptional service. Friendly. Superb food. Awesome gluten free.

I just love the food here and everything is delicious and freshly baked in the impossibly tiny kitchen...the staff are patient beyond belief, the cook amazing and the prices ok. Dont come if you are in a hurry coz takes AGES for food to come but thats nice if meeting friends for cozy chat. I had sourdough toast, avocado, grilled halloumi, poached egg and salad cost £9. Im still dyung to try the pancake or waffle stacks

yummy food and lovely atmosphere. sat upstairs and it was quiet. food came before drinks but it was only a few minutes and we didn’t really mind. I had bacon and maple pancakes which were the perfect mix of sweet and salty, partner had avocado and halloumi sourdough which she praised highly. pleasant and filling brunch

Small but very pleasant coffee shop. The staff are nice, the food is tasty and price's are reasonable. There is no parking near the café but is only a short walk from the city centre.

Wonderful coffee and food, highly recommend! Portion sizes were generous so left feeling very satisfied..

A lovely little coffee shop tucked away from the main town on a street full of galleries and artisan shops. The flat white, Cappuccino and house tea were nice. The food though was really good; we had Eggs Benedict, Mushroom and Avocado on Sourdough, Smoked Salmon Bagel and Berry Pancakes (this was mahoosive). Friendly staff, no parking, not huge numbers of seats.

Fantastic cafe! I had the best cheese toastie I’ve ever eaten here! And the Biscofee Rocky Road was fabulous! Lovely service too ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
