    Can’t recommend simmer down more highly if i could give 10 stars I would. We went there in a group of 11 and had a banquet the food was amazing and I don’t think I’ve ever been anywhere where the owners and staff take so much pleasure in making sure you have a great night ( If you haven’t been to simmer down then you should be asking your self why not )

    Great atmosphere. Surprisingly good coffee and a brilliant all day full English breakfast. I met Neville Staples. Part of our afternoon at the 2 Tone Village Experience that included The Coventry Music Museum, 2 Tone Corner clothing, footwear and accessories shop and a great 2 tone memorabilia shop.

    Very friendly staff and great decor. Ordered the jerk chicken, but was disappointed, the chicken was dry and I was pretty sure it had just been microwaved. But, for the price it wasn't too bad.

    Good quality food. quality rather than fast food,friendly service from the hard working staff,at a reasonable price. Food from full English to rice/peas jerk chicken,or just drop in for a coffee after looking around the music museum and shops all under cover,so you can still sit outside even in the famous English weather

    Opposite the music museum so can be a little busy but worth the wait Amazing value for money. Authentic Carribbean curried mutton, rice and peas AND a portion of superb jerk chicken for under £10. Excellent.

    Popped into the 2 Tone Cafe recently before a bus back to Leicester. A great breakfast & an excellent cup of tea served by a lovely lady for £4. I'll be back if the chance arises again!Arranged my mum's birthday party held exclusively, and I must say that Angela pulled out all the stops for us. The food was delicious, hot, authentic and plentiful. It felt like the restaurant was part of our family celebrations.

    Called in to the simmer down cafe whilst visiting the 2 tone village. An amazing little cafe with VERY friendly staff and owners .absolutely beautiful food, I cannot recommend the mutton curry enough. We came from Doncaster and will definitely returning to simmer down!

    I had a wonderful experience at the Two Tone Village. The food in the cafe was lovely. The Coventry Music Museum was very interesting and I loved learning all about the history of Ska... I even got to meet Neville Staple who popped in! The staff was tremendous and truly went above and beyond in making sure that my 2 Tone experience was spectacular.
