Coffee Vida in Erewash

A good hot cup of coffee. Place is light and spacious.Could however be cleaner. Number of unoccupied tables still had used cups and plates on them, and the floor had clearly not been swept for some time.

The coffee and tea are really good they do sandwiches cakes and other stuff as well as coffee and tea the staff are friendly

This morning was my first time ordering food. I chose the breakfast, unfortunately they didn’t have any sausages, but that was fine. When the breakfast came it was presented well, it would of probably been better on a larger plate, however all food was cooked reasonably well. It would be nice if they included hash-browns but that’s my personal preference. I also had a flat white which has a nice strong smooth taste. Pleasant staff, & very easily accessible for people using the local bus.

Lovely cocktails! 2 for £10! Made really well and fresh. My whiskey sour had real egg whites, nice fresh furniture and friendly staff. 5 stars!

It's a very nice coffee shop and all the staff are very friendly and polite.

Good coffee and cake, but service can be a little bit slow - I've often had to wait a few minutes for a member of staff to appear at the counter. It's also incredibly hot in the summer! On the plus side, the view of the church across the square is quite lovely. Overall, a nice place, but not the best I've been to.

Echo most of the previous reviews.Lovely cafe, in a great location. (Top of town, accessible for all the shops and market, and with most of the buses stopping straight outside.)Its always looked popular, so when we went to go in midmorning on a Saturday we half expected to either be crammed in, or not find space for our buggy.Luckily once inside its very open and spacious, they've resisted the urge to cram as many tables in as possible, so although there was only a 2 seater table free, we easily managed to pull up another seat, and slide the buggy in while leaving plenty of room all round for people to get past unrestricted. I hate being crammed in, and I hate feeling like we're in people's way, so this was a huge positive and allowed us to relax.The menu didn't have a huge selection, but there was enough to provide a choice for most people, with a couple of specials, which providing they change pretty frequently should stop repeat visitors getting bored.One recommendation I would suggest, that should be easy to implement is perhaps provide the option of baguettes to go alongside the bacon/sausage cobs etc, to appease people like me with bigger appetites!The place was really clean, the wait to get served, and get our food and drinks was minimal.The prices were very reasonable, but most importantly the food was delicious, seemed to be well cooked and of good quality ingredients.A simple breakfast cob can so easily go from delicious to dire just by weather or not the cafe is willing to spend a little extra on better quality ingredients.The staff we all lovely too, especially the young lady who brought out food to us, who seemed to genuinely make a fuss of the kiddies.We definitely intend to make it a regular little trip before we do our shopping, alternating with another nice cafe we found at the other end of town. And we love the fact it isn't a chain either, feels like you're really supporting a local business.

Love going to this coffee shop. The decor and atmosphere are modern and relaxing. Plenty of comfortable seats. Drink selection is good, and I've never had a bad drink. I usually always go for coffee based drinks, but the chai latte here is absolutely amazing. I'll be back for more!

This is a lovely cafe on the ground floor and at the main entrance of what used to be the co-op department store on Ilkeston Market Square. We were lucky enough to be there for the '2-4pm £1 toasted teacake or scone with your drink' offer, and all was very nice with plenty of butter too! The place is smart and attractive, highly recommended.

Nice new coffee shop in the main market place of Ilkeston. The decor is trendy and the facilities are new and clean. There is a disabled and a unisex toilet on site and there is table service from very friendly staff. Prices are equal to other drink and eats outlets in town. Very handy if waiting for buses
