This is a quaint little cafe the menu is limited ,but just enough to give everyone a choice. It is very clean and the food is delicious with a good size portion. The milk shakes alone are worth a trip with kids.

We visited Spokes this morning for birthday celebrations. What a lovely coffee shop this is. Clean and tidy with a relaxed atmosphere throughout. This really is the place to chat, read a book, and just shut off from the outside world. Service is excellent and friendly with food and beverages served quickly. The menu is varied with all meals prepared in their kitchen. It's all amazingly tasty but I do recommend the American dream sandwich accompanied by the dirty chai latte. I can't fault this coffee shop. It's a 10/10 for food, ambience and service. Try Gainsborough's No1 coffee shop. You'll love it.

Lovely food (very generous portions!) The Halloumi wrap is delicious and the coffee is lovely (I had a latte)... the staff were all really friendly. I'll definitely be returning, next time with my dog! ...and won't eat as much lunch next time, so I have space for the yummy looking cakes πŸ˜‹

Food arrived 8 mins after ordering which is fantastic, food tasted delicious and was all piping hot.. Can't believe how cheap the prices are πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘Œ... Will I be back? Yes 100000%..

Had a big breakfast which included a mug of tea! Small friendly cafe, clean and bright. Staff very welcoming and polite. Food cooked to order. Hot and tasty, the eggs were cooked lovely and so was the fried bread. All for Β£5 and so I can't really drop any stars, even if the sausages were fairly basic. Excellent value for money!! Great service too hence the full 5 ⭐ With today's tight budgets, it's an absolute bargain πŸ‘

A true gem of Gainsborough. Don't look like much but my Mrs said she ate there when she was a little girl and so to eat here with my sons is a bit special to her. It is very cheap and good quality food, normally have the big breakfast but today had a panini with fries and it was beautiful. The fries were actually fried! Normally it's oven cooked soggy yellow sticks but golden hot crispy fries! Heaven. Staff are great and interact brilliantly with customers so you get a family feel when you eat here, everybody knows each other and you could be mistaken for eating at home with all your family wittering on and laughing. My favourite place to eat when in town for lunch.

Best place in all of Lincolnshire for a Bacon and egg bap (to date that is) I highly recommend that you are in the area you pop in and give it a try. There often can be a bit of a wait on food but it's worth the wait I'd say. The breakfasts are good but nothing to rant and rave over but still fills that spot for a cooked breakfast in the morning.

Great place to visit lovely staff and food. Praise to the handling of a very rude customer who had a very demanding attitude . The restaurant was very very busy yet the customer seemed to think he deserved special treatment Our food and service was great as needing a gluten free meal it is great to have such choice will be back soon.

The Caldero Lounge in Gainsborough was a great find, located in Marshalls Yard shopping plaza (DN21 2NA). We'd only gone there to go to JYSK (a bit like Ikea) and we saw this funky looking restaurant / bistro. So, we did our shopping and went in for a light lunch. So glad we did. I was talking the the waiter and he said that they're part of the sister company of Cosy Club (who we love). So we were very happy with that. Despite being ravenous carnivores, we both went for veggy (or almost veggy) options. My wife had the Beetroot and Feta flatbread (which looked amazing) and I opted for the Chicken, Bacon & Avocado salad. OK, so that one wasn't very veggy, but it was super delicious and filled me up for our 5 hour drive back to Somerset. The restaurant is funky, quirky and cool. Everyone there seemed so chilled and happy. We've got family in the area, so we'll definitely be back there. So many great looking things on the menu, got to try as many as I can. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Have been for lunch on a number of occasions and never been disappointed which led to a few of us attending the New Year celebrations - what a great night. Food ,service and entertainment were all top notch and "mine host" was on fine form when he took charge. Best New Year I've had for some time.

Absolutely stunning cafe and small shop. We stopped with our 2 boys (4 and 8) who enjoyed running around in the safe and open space outside. The food was absolutely gorgeous, the coffee is the best I have ever tasted anywhere and the staff (which included the owners) were friendly and fully attentive. You can tell this family business is run from the heart with every single bit of detail from the impeccable decor (the wooden ladder running across the exposed beams is originally from the farm and is over 60 years old) right down to the huge sachets of tomato ketchup. This is an absolute jewel in the crown of North Lincolnshire!

I stumbled across this gem online when researching places serving breakfast using Redhill Farm produce. Called in on Saturday morning. An exceptionally welcoming team in a beautifully decorated barn conversion. The attention to detail makes this somewhere special. The bacon was full of flavour. That black pudding was the best I’ve ever had too (melt-in-the-mouth and could taste the seasoning. So far removed from the dried hockey puck served in most places). The toast: Crisp on the exterior and fluffy within. Even the ketchup was a bit tastier than the usual fare. All washed down with a great pot of tea. Those pancakes devoured by my mum also looked perfect too. Highly recommend and will definitely call again.

This was our first time to this restaurant and, as we were celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary, thought it would be something special and different as it had not been opened long. I was able to book the table through a text chat and received confirmation within about 4hrs. We arrived at the booked time and we were shown to our table. It looked like they had just cleaned the table as it was still a little sticky....I hope that was the case anyway. The waitress came to us and took our order for drinks, we ordered the house red, which was an Italian 2022, and it tastedl very nice. They returned and took our order for starters and mains. Whilst we waited for our starter, we drank a little of the wine and took in the atmosphere. It was a very busy night (Friday) with plenty of people booked in and waiters/waitresses moving backwards and forwards, seemed very promising as a venue. There was, at one point early in the evening, which concerned us as one of the waitresses had seen we had been sat without food for a while and asked if we had our starters yet, which we confirmed we had not so thought it strange the time from ordering to receiving starters a little long. The starters eventually came and I had the mushrooms in a gravy sauce with home-made bread and my wife had the Calamari. My wife did comment that she thought the Calamari was not as 'puffed up' as others she had seen coming out, but still tasted good, as did my dish. Once this was finished and the dishes taken away, we waited less time for our mains. My wife ordered the Chicken Spinach, whilst I ordered the Chicken Diavola, which was both plentiful and very hot. We both very much enjoyed our meals but were quite full from the amount given on our plates, so would maybe only have a main next time. I didn't have room for dessert, so that might be a lunchtime visit another day. All in all, the food was delicious, the service a little slow at times, but well worth a visit. Cost wise, it is a little more expensive than the local Prezzo, but you are getting different dishes and to a higher standard, we will definitely be returning!

Fantastic meal. Our second visit and I couldn't fault the restaurant at all on either visit. Food, service and atmosphere were impeccable. Food is delicious, the decorations for Christmas are beautiful (sincerely hope they leave them up year round to be honest!) and the service was swift and friendly (special thanks to both Liam and Erin for their service) The best part is the price, dishes are very reasonably priced and a couple can easily manage three courses with drinks for less than Β£100. As Gainsborough locals Il Gusto has quickly become our local favourite!

It's so nice to have this service on your doorstep, definitely what gainsborough needs. We enjoyed the beer on tap, and the cocktails made well. Definitely can not wait to return, my recommendations is the lamb all the way...THANK YOU ll gusto for amazing night off away from the kids and work xx look forward to seeing you with the extended family when they come over.
