Reviews from our lovely customers

I attended the barista course back in July with the idea of setting up a mobile van. Youri is very knowledgeable and his enthusiasm is contagious; I left the morning eager to tell people what I had learned and put my new skills into practice. Youri and his colleagues have continued to be very generous with their advice since the course and clearly want you to succeed at producing excellent coffee. I am looking forward to my first day of business tomorrow and would like to thank Youri and his team for their part, I highly recommend them. - Georgina Barrell

We attended a morning course hoping to learn how to make coffee properly. And boy, did we! Youri is an enthusiastic and immensely knowledgeable teacher (aka coffee genius) who managed to make us both feel at ease, even though we'd never laid hands on an espresso handle before! The only problems now are that we 1) can't go anywhere near a Starbucks again as we cringe at people making coffee incorrectly and 2) were so spoilt with the great machines that we're pining for a professional one..... We would definitely recommend the course to anyone who wants to enhance their knowledge of coffee and coffee making - and also to anyone wanting to spend a morning drinking it! - Lisa and Dave, Devon

We came to discuss a new coffee supplier. We left with a renewed passion for delivering exceptional quality to our customers. We thought we knew how to make good coffee, after 10 minutes with Howard we now have an insight into making exceptional coffee. With no deliberate marketing push our sales have already increased (in a week) purely by word of mouth. We're looking forward to having you guys train all our staff. We're delighted with our new business relationship and look forward to developing it further.Neil & Lauren - The Nought E Food Co, York

I recently attended the "how to start a coffee shop" two day training course. After being quite a novice when it came to coffee, I found this course extremely helpful. It's given me confidence not only in using the espresso machines but in every aspect of running a coffee shop, Youri and Howard couldn't of been more helpful.David Baldwin

Hi Youri, Howard,Thanks again to you both for your hospitality on |Thursday. It was definitely my gain and Roberts lost ,Due his train delays. I know Howard offered to make up any short falls in Roberts exposure to his skills once I had left. I benefitted greatly from the course and enjoyed being around fellow addicts.The setup and cleanliness of my machine seemed so far out it made me laugh. Once I cleaned up and dialled the grinder in, I can now rest assured that I have the tools to make a really acceptable coffee.Brilliant course and I will feed back on the beans.The latte Art is coming on a treat ( see attached image)Best regards Keith Adams - Scarborough Hi Youri, Howard,Thanks again to you both for your hospitality on |Thursday.

We recently attended a half day barista training session with Youri. The communication leading up to the training and the quality of the training itself was fantastic. We got to have Youri all to ourselves which was invaluable to us as a new business. He was very personable which made the training that much more enjoyable. He took loads of pictures which we can now use in our shop. By the end our heads were filled with loads of information and we were producing latte art - very exciting!!! Seeing the roasting process was a great experience for us as well. Thanks Youri!!!Tracey & MikaelBeanzz We recently attended a half day barista training session with Youri.

Since the initial idea of opening our new venture through to the training we received last week, the service provided by Youri has been first class.. Training is fun and informative and within four hours you will be making first class coffee.. I cannot recommend Youri and the Limini Coffee team highly enough.. - Simon - Evergreen

I had the pleasure of an early sample of Limini Coffee's new premium blend and it's of premiership quality, a true luxury. Must be enjoyed as a straight espresso to get maximum enjoyment. It's well balanced and extremely complex and after tasting with friends we agreed that there are some strong floral notes. All my efforts have been pulled on a wee 1 group machine (Expobar Office Leva) designed for domestic not commercial use and i've found it near on impossible to brew a shot that isn't anything but delicious. Highly recommend! - Louis

I attended a course with Youri of Limini Coffee and he was unbelievably generous with his time, his expertise and his milk and coffee! I got to practice latte art until I was able to produce something recognisable thanks to Youri's incredible patience. I would thoroughly recommend you go to him to learn anything about coffee. Colin

Helen and I have just completed a barista training course with Youri at Limini Coffee in Halifax. Despite the snow and a late arrival we were immediately impressed by the Coffee House and the warmth of the greeting.We had bought our first Gaggia machine a few months earlier, but were a little dubious about what we were doing. My friend Paul recommended Youri, and we are very grateful to him for that.We are both beginners in the magical art of making proper coffee, and when we tasted the first cappuchino made by Youri we realised that a whole new world of coffee pleasure was opening up. Four hours of watching, tasting, and making ourselves, provided a very satisfying learning experience. We thoroughly recommend Youri and Limini Coffee, though I think we will need a bit more practice to reach his standards - Bernard and Helen
