After hearing all good reviews about the restaurant we as a family decided to give it a go. After waiting 35 minutes outside for a table while other people who were behind us were taken first because there was two of them and there was three of us which should not happen. We finally got a table. Ordered our food which was lovely and then decided that we would have a dessert. We all tried to make eye contact with waiter/ waitresses with no success. After waiting 25 minutes for someone to take a dessert order we gave up. When paying we made it clear we were not happy. The staff were all standing behind the counter offering each other cups of tea/coffee. Not good customer service at all.Thank you for your review - there is absolutely no excuse for what happened to yous - we as management are always telling our staff to get out on the floor and make sure our customers are being properly looked after -we have always prided ourselves on excellent customer service. I have addressed this with my staff this morning and will continue to monitor how they are doing - this is one thing I am passionate about. Again thank you for bringing it to my attention.

It doesn't get more real than this. We only needed a coffee but what a pleasant experience. With two fires burning away it was very welcoming and must be great in the middle of winter too!

Found this lovely restaurant with an incredible selection of tray bakes, scones and delicious goodies. It has so much potential except for the fact that tray bakes were handled onto the plate with no serving tongs. This worried me as I saw the waitress just before picking up the tray bake walk across the floor with a teaspoon of hot choclate to decorate a drink. The sprinklings not only fell across the floor but when it spilt on the counter top, she immediately swept the spillage into the floor. Not washing her hands she picked up the traybake and placed it onto a plate. There were other little things she did. Poor waitress has no training in the service industry especially with regard to washing your hands , either using gloves or tongs.

As many others returning to the cafe after the 6 mile walk along the reservoirs is very welcoming. The selection of food sandwiches and hot drinks are very good. They have a unique selection of flavoured scones, white chocolate and raspberry, mint aero and what we thought was cheese and chutney ended up being a mars bar scone ! Honestly truely unique and worth a visit.
