Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great little cafe just over the Thames footbridge in Windsor. The coffee was excellent and there is a delicious range of food, including Italian cakes. The owner, Enza was friendly, welcoming and delightful to have a chat.

We were in Eton and decided to visit. So very pleased we did. Coffee was good, well it is Italian, food was good. The variety is excellent and all is freshly prepared. I had a sausage sandwich, awesome, and my partner had a smashed avacado...sandwich. I had a taste, never tasted anything like it!! To my embarrasment Nimia is in the next village, never tried it. We have decided to mske it once a week now. Thoroughly recommend this establishment.More

We were on a day out to Eton with our small dog and looking for a café for refreshments. Nimia's display of treats, including cannoli, in their window lured us in, and the water bowl was a welcome sight for our dog after our walk...along the Thames. Upon entering staff offered a biscuit to our dog - what a lovely gesture, and it was refreshing to see staff welcoming dogs in their establishment. We had cannolis to go with our drinks, and after enjoying them so much we came back later to pick up some more cannolis for at home. A small café in a bustling high street, the service was great, staff welcoming, and the menu offers a variety of treats, including vegan options. The fact that it is dog friendly is much appreciated.More

Fab place. Very friendly and professional staff. They welcomed us and our dog (with a dog treat), and we were able to sit inside with the dog. We had tea and iced coffee along with a cake and a couple of canollis, and even bought...2 boxes of canollis to take away. Good price and quality and would recommend.More

Delicious cakes, especially the carrot and apricot cake. Very good coffee with friendly service. Tiny cafe with not a lot of seating but fun quirky decor.

Very cosy cafe - I don't think they often have a group of 7 all at once but they were very welcoming. Freshly prepared ciabatta etc and good choice of teas (& coffee).

We have only been about 7 times as it’s absolutely a place to keep for very special occasions. The older generation are all gone. What would they think? Doorman was brilliant despite the rain. I guess we were greeted but it was nothing special. We...choose to go to the lounge for a drink. No cocktails menu was seen? I really fancied experimenting but without a menu that’s impossible. Food menu arrived very quickly, too quickly for me. I was shocked to see I had prices on mine. My husband says it’s the new way. So I guess at 60 I need to change. I got all the way to the table before anyone took my coat. I’m nut intolerant but rarely say anything as people panic and the menu becomes minute. I don’t have severe reactions and a bit of nut oil won’t do anything. It’s only things that are full of nuts that are a problem. Nuts now seem to be very prevalent on this menu. We have a menu from 2009 I must find it and compare. Anyone with a nut allergy visiting now would feel like a vegan. Lobster starter was really lovely. Excellent presentation and preparation. My husband was jealous, but enjoy his own dish as well. No beef or steak on the main menu, Duck I sometimes adore but it has to be perfect luckily it was. My husband a real carnivore again enjoyed his meal I simply can’t remember what it was. We had mashed potatoes on the side, of course they were lovely but definitely need to be called creamed potatoes. Dessert Nuts Nuts Nuts. Plumbs and Plumbs. I’m not keen on plumbs I will eat them at a friends house to be polite but as I now get to see the prices I’m not paying £45 for something I’m not keen on. On the off chance that the Pistachio crème brûlée was only topped with nuts we asked, no it’s nuts all through. Now the kitchen know my predicament. Nothing was available not even ice cream was offered. How long could fruit salad and caramel sauce take. The Restaurant was only half full it being mid week in November. Coffee was served at the table not in the lounge. The petit-fours were less than before. I was now told I could only have two . Again the reason I don’t say I have a problem. Because my husbands almond based one was lovely. Almonds are not true nuts a chef of a high calibrate should know that. I have seen things produced out of thin air for my Gluten Free daughter sometimes. Obviously not always. But an inability to put together a dessert in such a kitchen is unbelievable. I didn’t think the waiting staff could have looked more miserable than they had appeared most of the evening but even they looked sad. No chef came out of the kitchen. I guess we were earlier leaving than normal. But it’s the first time we recall not seeing any kitchen staff. So I don’t know where we will celebrate my 70th birthday alongside out 50th Wedding Anniversary. But it won’t be here. The atmosphere was none existent as well. No flamboyant staff. No chatting. No reason to hang around.More

Didn't eat here - but very very good coffee. Bit of a wait as only one person working there which isn't enough for a Saturday - but would return for the coffee.

Stopped here for a latte. It’s a lovely place and the staff we helpful and friendly. Love the empty oat milk cartons as cup holders! Unfortunately, the coffee was good, but not great. Definitely go here over a chain coffee shop, but it’s not a...place for speciality coffee. The taste was a bit flat and basic, and the milk was overheated so that it was hot enough to burn my tongue, too hot for a latte. I didn’t have a cake but my god they looked delicious!!More
