Hello My business partner and I attended the 2 on 1 course in late January. It was a ray of sunshine on an otherwise grey, wet and dull day. The course was informative, interesting and inspirational an on occassion... fun. The passion for coffee was evident from start to end, as well as the knowledge shared being invaluable. Really enjoyed the day, tasted great coffee and by then end of it we were making great coffees. The end of the course marked a beginning of the great coffee adventure. Cheers Youri Ben and Sam

I recently went on the Barista and latte art course with Stu. It was a really excellent course, really informative and I learnt loads, not just about making good coffee at home, but where it comes from, how it is roasted and what makes a bad cup of coffee. Stu was an excellent trainer, really knows his stuff and is really passionate about coffee and was able to answer every question asked. He made the latte art look so easy and I could only wish my hearts and tulips looked so good. I would thoroughly recommend this course to anyone who enjoys drinking coffee, has a coffee machine at home or is thinking of getting one and wants to learn how to make a good cup of coffee. - Mena

I recently attended the Coffee Shop Course with Stuart as the trainer. I not only really enjoyed the course but I learned so much over the two days. Stuart is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable; he was happy to tailor the course to each individual's needs and made a real effort to answer all of our questions. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in opening their own coffee shop or with a general interest in the coffee i\

'+!\[\]]* a theory course with Youri and was impressed with his knowledge of the business and depth of research. Not only was the material covered on the day helpful, the resources we were given to bring away and use for ourselves in developing our business plans was invaluable.

Hi, I attended the full day Barista and Latte Art course with Stu as our trainer.( Sorry i was late, sat nav issues eneded up in wrong carr bottom road), I rang and Stu was really friendly and assured me it was fine and they would wait for me, a relief as already travelled 80 miles and didnt want to miss it. FANTASTIC, what a great day, Stu was passionate about coffee, which shone through, his knowledge was excellent, being not only able to answer questions but adding his own passion to the answers, which is infectious. Reading all the reviews, I know now why they are all so positive. Well done Limini and of course Stu im hooked and saving up for a coffee machine, in the meantime im honing my Cafetiere skills. My knowledge of coffee, i,m ashamed to say was limited to drinking it, I came away with a lot more knowledge of how to make the perfect coffee. I enjoyed each and evey moment of the day, Stu made us all feel relaxed and helped us enjoy it. Despite my tulips looking like twigs!!!. I managed eventually to create one, it was like scoring a hat trick at anfield for Liverpool against Everton( no offence to evertonians, ha ha). Seriously the course is really well structured Stu knows his stuff and encorages you through each stage. I would highly recomend the course to anyone, my course was a present what a great gift it was. Thanks again to Stu for making it a special day. Be back one day for the business course, and to hone my tulip skills/ Paul Ainscough Merseyside.

This is a really great course, and I would recommend it to anyone thinking about starting up their own coffee shop. You can learn a lot from your own reading, research and experiences, but you get a whole lot more from Limini. Stuart is a very friendly and professional trainer who clearly loves coffee and working with and helping people. The hands on experience of working the machines and making great coffee was invaluable and lots of fun. I am glad too that I went on a course with 3 other adventurers - you can learn a lot from your fellow participants too. Thank you, Stuart and Youri. - Alistair

I thought the How to Start a Coffee Shop course was excellent. It was well paced, suited to our needs (we booked a 2-on-1 with Stuart) and we left with the knowledge and reassurance needed to go on and set up our venture. I though the ready-made spreadsheets for planning and financial control were perfect for our needs - easy to understand but thorough and very useful at our business planning stage. Stuart was a very knowledgeable and professional trainer. His passion for the coffee business shone through and inspired us even further. I couldn't recommend the course highly enough. - Brendan

I would highly recommend the coffeeshop course for any start up business regardless of what how much experience you have or research you have previously done. It highlighted some flaws in my existing plan whilst equipping me with an in depth knowledge of the industry, especially the financials. Youri's knowledge is second to none, very professional staff and made to feel welcome by all. - Sarah

I attended the one-on-one course with Youri several months ago, and had a fantastic time! Youri is so knowledgeable, and so passionate about coffee and coffee making...he made it a truly enjoyable and productive learning experience. I'd have no hesitation recommending the course to other people interested in learning more and honing their barista skills. A great gift for those interested in learning more, and essential foundational knowledge for those interested in a career with coffee. - Sam

Me and my partner had recently returned from travelling, and whilst away visiting these wonderful places we realised how excited we got about coffee, but knew nothing about it. We researched and come up with the idea of owning our own coffee shop, but we were questioning ourselves, could we do this? Could we afford this? Could we learn enough to make this happen? We came across Limini coffee, and read all the amazing reviews. We had ones closer to home but they didn’t come close to Liminis reviews. My Dad came along too, he kept an open mind but came to see if he would be willing to invest in us and a coffee house from the information we would receive. All three of us were completely overwhelmed to how much we learned over the 2 day course with Stuart and Youri. They are completely passionate with what they do and it’s refreshing to see. Stuart was our main teacher for the 2 days, and he was very patient with us. It was a brilliant mix with the coffee making and practical side of things to the business side of things. The room was brilliantly set up, so clean, fresh and easy to use. We never knew how difficult it was to actually make a proper€™ cup of coffee. We loved the learning and tasting, grinding and even ROASTING our own coffee!! We can easily say now, esp with the continuing on going support from Limini Coffee, we could confidently follow our dream and open our own coffee shop (along with my Dads investment alsoŠ) Thank you Youri, Stu and the whole team, and continue doing what you do best! - Deanna, Mike & Richard
