Esquires Coffee gets ready to open its doors in Leicester

Coffee-lovers in Leicester will soon be able to enjoy their favourite beverage in a new Esquires Coffee branch.

The coffee franchise's newest location will be opening to the people of Leicester on Monday 10th August. And if you fancy enjoying your coffee and cake on the premises, you’ll be able to get a nice slice of discount too, as it will be taking part in the Eat Out to Help Out scheme.

An investment of £500,000 has been poured into the branch by the owners of another local branch in New Walk Place. It can seat up to 60 people and will be open between 8:30 - 7 on weekdays and 10 – 5 on weekends.

You can grab everything from Fairtrade organic coffee to fresh juice to teas. If you’ve got time for some food, you can tuck into breakfast waffles, baked Turkish eggs or the Esquires Full English, as well as delicious pastries and light bites. And if you’re stopping by later in the day, an extensive range of fresh sandwiches, salads, signature dishes and cakes will be on offer.

Ryan Taylor, General Manager at the branch, said:

“We’re so excited to be able to open the new store as we look ahead to Leicester’s post-COVID recovery. Being located at The Wullcomb, we’re looking forward to offering an in-house service to residents in the building, whilst also being just a few steps from Highcross and the John Lewis car park for those visiting the city centre.”

He added that he hopes the coffee shop will serve the people of Leicester well, whatever they’re looking for.

"Whether you’re hosting a work meeting, catching up with friends or grabbing a coffee on the go, we can’t wait to throw the doors open on 10th August.”

If you’ve always wanted to open a coffee shop with a conscience, Esquires Coffee could be the perfect ethical franchise for you.
