Lakeside Cafe

Only had an ice cream, so can't really comment on the food. Had a Mr Wippy, but due to a botched delivery, they didn't have any flakes. Nice setting, restaurant looked clean. Set in a lovely park with playground and model boating lake. Lots of wildfowl, including Ducks, Canadian geese and Swans. Lots of free parking right nearby.

We took our dog for a walk and decided to sit by the cafe for a break and some food. Firstly, the owners were extremely friendly, helpful and kind. On arrival we were greeted by a young gentleman, although quiet at first, he was extremely helpful and polite. Nothing I asked was too much trouble. They have ramp access for wheel chairs, bowls of water for dogs and toilets situated a couple of metres behind the cafe. Our chips and coffee were lovely. There were many syrups to choose from in my coffee, which was lovely. We chose to sit outside with our dog, the owner brought us our food. We had such a wonderful chat and we appreciated the conversation. The atmosphere was lovely but quiet, it is a lot more noisier during peak times. It can get quite busy too, so it is just to be mindful of this to avoid disappointment in the seating areas. New ramps area for keen skaters and a wonderful play area for children. There is a boating lake nearby and children's rides, used in summer weather only. The lake grounds in general are a great day out, with areas for blankets, picnics and gazebos for small get togethers. Great for dog walkers too. There are benches along the promenade for sitting and watching the boats come in and out. The cafe has a great selection of food and drink overall and is a great place to meet friends. Don't believe it, why not see for yourself, it doesn't disappoint. Beautiful scenery, wonderful service and a great place to visit.

I had a very good day here the food in the cafe is very good not greasy and not too hot but mot cold either. Very nice view from the seaside lath and nice to come down from the lido down for some chips. Only improvements would be maybe some goal nets as there is a lot of space on the grass area but very nice location for a day out and £1 duck food is available in the cafe.
