"This, our local café, normally closes in the late afternoon about 17:00 this time of year; but occasionally it opens up on a Friday evening, until late, to provide a tapas evening with live music. These are occasions which we try to support as much as we can. Tonight was the latest of three such events that we have enjoyed supporting; it was also the last of the, I believe, four summer events have been held. The format, was as before, to stagger table reservation times to allow the kitchen to efficiently produce plates to order. This reservation system helps avoid what could be bottlenecks, that would surely result, if too many orders flood in at the more popular times. The menu is the same for all of these events; our preferences were again to the fore for certain plates, as follows: Chicken Skewers Greek style marinaded with yoghurt. Vegetable Spring Rolls with sweet chilli dip crispy, crunchy rolls filled with savoury mix of vegetables. Lamb kofta balls with tzatziki dip. Patatas Bravas crispy potatoes in a salsa brava with a creamy aioli. Skin on fries. It was once again a much enjoyed meal and, on this occasion, we had invited my Son to join us. He really enjoyed the plates and the atmosphere. Wine: we chose a bottle of the ‘Definition Pinot Grigio’ from north eastern Italy: very complex and much enjoyed: excellent. This bottle was my Son’s contribution to the evening (apart from, of course, his company). We followed that with a bottle of the ‘Pringle Bay’ Sauvignon Blanc from the Western Cape, South Africa: this was very good; wonderfully refreshing. My Partner and I paid for that one! Wine here is not too expensive, especially bearing in mind the quality. A note to say that the Patatas Bravas plate was excellent on this occasion, because the potatoes were indeed crispy. Our favourite plate, for all three of us, was however the ‘Vegetable Spring Rolls’. These were absolutely fabulous, such a great texture. If this plate was regularly featured on the menu, I am sure it would be a very popular choice. The provision of a sweet chilli dipping sauce is a masterpiece of culinary inspiration. The music for all of these events was a duo singing covers of popular songs accompanied by acoustic guitars. They use guitar mics to amplify the music an their vocals. On previous occasions the band have not been too loud; sadly tonight they were. There were times that we couldn’t hear each other speak, and my Partner had to twice ask the band to tone it down. There is a time and place for loud music and this wasn’t it."

my friend and I were already a few times in the avenue caffe and I can not recommend it enough fantastic service, delicious coffee and delicious food 10/10 from us. everyone has to go to the top of their list of places to go to the breakfast. the owner is one of the nicest men I've ever met. so happy to have this little gem on its own doorstep.

what a nice family café. such a scandal that some people with young children think that it is a playground, and let their children walk laboriously. there are always people with children who are always welcome. it only needs one or two children to cause much noise. great eating great atmosphere and very good service it will definitely recommend my friends.

I go to avenue cafe for coffee breakfast ever loved for years. now they are on Fri/Sat nights open I am sooo pleased. the food/service was amazing twice. I would recommend a visit (or two); it is great to have a local evening dining shop that is on the market, but affordable. also they have my fav marlboro wein! many thanks to all the employees at the avenue.

The restaurant is just okay. It is very hyped up and quite expensive, but the quality of the traditional English breakfast food is only average. The cakes and foreign-inspired dishes seem like a better option. The service was good overall. The atmosphere was pleasant. Overall, the experience was average. The restaurant is rated 3 for food, 4 for service, and 4 for atmosphere. Ver carta

I really like the place. It's got a nice vibe. We went there for tapas. The staff were great and the food choices were more for vegetarians as there were only couple of meat options. I tallied up the bill roughly in my head and was shocked by how much more it cost for what we received. It cost £9 for two Shandy's. The food was overrated and overpriced and I'm writing this review because I'm still annoyed a week later. I'll probably only go there again for coffee but not for a meal.

A lovely cafe and a gem in Emersons Green. But, the inability to order at the table is really frustrating. The cafe is understandably very popular and often really busy so there is invariably a little wait for the lovely fresh food. This means the drink you've ordered at the till with your breakfast has gone by the time the food comes out. Not an issue if the waiting staff could take a further drinks order at the table when they deliver the food, but for some reason they don't offer that service. So you're left with the option of either just eating with no drink, or re-joining the queue to order another drink and watching your breakfast go cold. This is a relatively minor point and is intend...
