My sister and myself attended the 'barista and latte art course', we were made to feel very welcome and were inspired by Youri's passion and enthusiasm for good coffee! We certainly learnt a lot over the day and even though we weren't very good at the latte art it certainly didn't diminish our desire to make a good quality coffee. Limini has set us off on the right track an now we can't wait to put our new skills and knowledge into practice. Sally

A brilliant two days training with lots of information, facts ,figures and fun.!! Fabulous coffee too!! ..a big thank-you to Stu and also to Paul for sharing his expertise. - Kim

The course was great! Stuart is a great teacher and as well as learning a huge amount I also had fun too. He was great to bounce ideas off and I would definitely recommend this course to anyone thinking about starting a coffee shop. - Elspeth

I attended this course as I am about to open a new coffee shop. The reason I chose this course was that I not only wanted to to learn how to make great coffee but also wanted to know about the business side of the industry and get all the necessary information. This course more than fulfilled all the requirements and feel it was definitely worth the money, four hour drive to Bradford and additional hotel expense. All the staff at Limini are wonderful but the course instructor Stuart is just amazing. He has incredible knowledge, expertise and patience. He is a superb barista but also has so much knowledge about the financial and day today running of the business. He is an amazing instructor. He made the course not only very informative but also very enjoyable. They had also arranged for another coffee shop owner and a Limini client to spend the whole day with us and it was wonderful to get insight into the his experiences. It was also lovely to meet Youri, the owner of the business. His passion and knowledge of the industry is also very infectious. The after course support information is also very detailed and extremely useful. Thanks to everyone, especially Stu and Paul at Limini for a wonderful couple of days. - Bonny

We originally attended the 'How to start a Coffee Shop' training a few months back at the start of our business venture. This time we were returning for more practice on coffee making, and also to get some great tailored advice for our business now we are much closer to this being a reality. The course did not disappoint, and Stu's expert help and guidance have been vital in our business start up progress. Another great day of training during which we were made to feel so welcome, and we are looking forward to continuing support for our venture from Limini! - Julie

My business partner and myself recently attended the 2-on-1 'How to Start a Coffee Shop' day course with Stuart. The day was very informative but relaxed and fun at the same time. Stuart really knows his stuff about coffee and the industry and it was great to spend the day with such a passionate and enthusiastic individual. The day was very well organised and well structured between the theory and practical side of the course. Over the day you get to learn to make (and drink) lots of different coffees, learn all about the equipment, grinders & beans as well as practise some latte art. The rest of the day was extremely informative and we where able discuss and ask lots of questions regarding the financial side of running a coffee shop business. We both left the day feeling so much more confident & prepared to start our own speciality coffee shop in London. Massive thumbs up to Stuart and the rest of the Limini team for offering such a great course plus all the after course support. We would highly recommend it to others looking to get into the industry. Thanks again - Roshan & Ryan

What can I say apart from firstly a big thank you to Stuart for his expert guidance, help and patience. And secondly, I went on the course only being able to make a mediocre coffee at home but WOW what a difference a day makes, I have learnt so much about many different aspects of coffee, a first class course and lots of useful information. Thanks again Stu and all the best to the Limini team - Steve W

Brilliant course. Very enjoyable. Four hours definitely well spent. I learnt without a doubt that choosing the right coffee and using the correct techniques and machines will lead to success. I also learnt that there is no substitute for quality. The coffee is fantastic. Thank you Stuart for making it look easy. Janet - a self confessed novice. - Janet

I really enjoyed my Home Barista course yesterday afternoon. Stu is a very skilful teacher; patient, knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and concerned to focus on my own specific concerns and questions, and not simply give a standard talk. He seemed to teach each person in the room at their own level (and I was the least knowledgeable by far!), and yet also draw us together as well so we could learn from each other too. I feel I learned lots, and am much more confident about making coffee now; but still aware there is much more to learn, and that I can learn it at Limini. Highly recommended. - Ian

Have just completed the 'How To Start A Coffee Shop' course today and cannot recommend it highly enough! I did the one day, one-to-one training with Stuart. AWESOME!! He is so passionate about coffee and I have learnt so much today. A totally relaxed, fun day and very well organised. Lots of time to practice making the different coffees, but also lots of useful information and lots to take away. I now feel so much more prepared to start my own coffee shop. Will definitely use Limini again in the future. Thanks again to all of the team. - Jez
