I was lucky enough to attend a one day 'How to run a coffee shop' course with the wonderful Vicky.. From the moment I walked in I felt completed at ease. Vicky was an absolute legend.. She really knew her stuff and boy did she know how to make a cup of coffee.. Nothing was too much trouble and she was more than happy to give advice and suggestions which I have now taken on board.. I never realised how much there was to know about coffee and the many factors that could affect the taste. I had an absolutely fantastic day and I cannot praise Vicky enough.. She was brilliant!!. I am now looking forward to my one day Barista and Latte Art course... Lots more coffee!! - Chrissy Dobbs

I visited Limini twice .First I did Barista course, second How to open a coffee shop . What a wonderful time I had. So much fun and new information. Such a great place where to start off. People are so nice working in there. Will support with everything. Thank you so much for everything! - Monta

Had a great day. Youri was very knowlegable and personable with a good sense of humour. The course was very informative taking you from the origins of coffee, blending, roasting to the practical elements of grinding and making every coffee on the menu. He also ran through the set up, financials, marketing and running a coffee business. You could ask anything you wanted bespoke to your own plan which was very useful. The wealth of tools and information provided to read and use after the course was vast and very useful. If you are thinking of starting a coffee shop I would thoroughly recommend the course! Thank you. Justin

We really enjoyed our one-day coffee course with Limini. Vicki is a fantastic tutor with bags of knowledge and experience, plenty of energy and a good sense of humour. We learned a lot and had fun along the way; there was a good mix of practical skills training and the business side. The support and materials are also really helpful and we feel well-placed to progress a potential coffee shop to the next phase. Thank you! - Julie Flower

My boyfriend and I started thinking about potentially opening a coffee shop a few months back but we are both from a completely different background and were a bit unsure of how doable this was.... Then we found Limini and signed up for the 2 day course on how to start-up a coffee shop and it was such an eye opener! In 2 days we covered more stuff than I could have possibly hoped for, from coffee to steaming milk to latte art, writing our business plan, budgeting for costs, designing a shop, etc. Our trainer Vicki was so much fun to work with, she is an amazing person full of energy, passionate about what she does, knows EVERYTHING about coffee and the coffee business and she answered all 5000 questions we had! My mind is still buzzing and I am so excited and can't wait to get started! The atmosphere at Limini is like nowhere else I had been before when I started thinking about coffee as a business, I would recommend to anyone to sign up. BEST SPENT MONEY EVER. Thank you Vicki and Yuri. - Valentina

After I decided to quit my job and start a coffee shop, I needed some guidance in how to do it. Even though Limini Coffee was the first course I found online I tried to look for other courses closer to home in London. After a long search, I decided that Limini looked by far the best. So I booked the course and went to Leeds. I had the pleasure of having Youri as my trainer. Even though I have done many other courses before and even trained some myself, I feel that this course was truly special. It was extremely personal and tailored to suit my exact needs. Youri made me feel very comfortable and it felt that I was spending the day with a good who was very knowledgeable about coffee shops. He gave me very clear direction on where to start and what to do until I open the doors of my coffee shop and run a successful business. Even though I use to be a barista before, I learned things about coffee I never knew. And trust me, Youri makes a mean cup of coffee! So my advise for anyone who is in my position is to make the booking and do the course. You wont regret it. Limini also offer a great after service and loads of very useful information to take with you. So even though the day might seem pricey, you get so much more. Apologies for the long review, but I want to give you a clear picture on what to expect. I have no regrets and feel that my new career as a business owner is starting today. Thanks Youri for a great informative day. I will definitely be in touch with you in the future! And to everyone reading this; Best of luck in your new ventures! :) On a personal note, thank you for yesterday. You are really an amazing trainer. I got exactly what I needed from you. This morning I feel hopeful and that I have a good solid starting point. I will be in touch with you again in the future. Also sending you some more customers :) Hope you have a lovely day, Dewald

What a great course! I did the How to Start a Coffee Shop 1 day course which was a good mix of practical hands on coffee making and business theory. Vicki was so friendly and knowledgeable and I learnt a lot. I think the course was good value and would definitely recommend to anyone considering opening a coffee shop/cafe. Vicki had lots of tips and tricks to avoid getting caught out during the early stages of the business. And the Limini coffee we used was delicious :) Thanks a lot! Matt

It was an unusual birthday present, but going from zero to mastering every coffee on the menu (not to mention understanding why bad coffee tastes so unsatisfying) was the most fun we've had in a kitchen, and I've never laughed so much on a course - Vicki is a fantastic teacher - I wouldn't have believed I'd be banging out excellent flat whites within a few hours. We headed to Zucco's Italian in Leeds for superb tapas for lunch with our heads still swimming on a caffiene high, and it turned out their staff were at Limini the next day for the same course... I can see why! Thankyou Vicki & Limini! - Jon & 'Jill'

A big thank you to Limini, and especially Vicki for making us feel really welcome and for teaching us everything we need to know for a new business , we both hope you enjoyed your day as much as we did ours, we shall keep you posted on our new adventure. Many thanks J&H
