Lovely little place. Had to sit outside because of covid but there was lots of space and a lovely atmosphere. Food was amazing! My mum's ploughman's meal was huge. Pretty reasonable prices too 😊
I eat at Lizzy’s every time I come to visit our daughter and family. Hog Roast on Monday was so delicious🐽don’t forget her delicious dessert’s. I will be back in August for more of her great cooking and wonderful staff.
This place never fails to please me. I look forward to eating here all the time. Generous portions of gorgeous tasty food. Even the pot of tea for two is very generous. The service is great too, nothing too much trouble and all done with a smile. I've been here several times and I'm looking forward to returning.
This rating is based on the at least half a dozen times we ate at Lizzy’s while settling in locally, so have a read before you let a few one/star write-ups change your mind. The first time we went in, we were starving and on our way to look for antiques when we saw the conveniently located Lizzy’s Cafe. Lunch was almost over, but Sarah and Annette served up a comforting jacket potato with tuna and the hubby had something equally tasty. The best part was definitely the strawberry rhubarb crisp in custard at the end. Everything tastes fresh and everyone was up for a chat, which is why we lingered for tea and dessert. We came back a few more times for lunch, coffee or tea and dessert, Sunday roast (which is currently some simple hot dishes rather than elaborate roasts for the summer). I’ve had the kiln smoked salmon and the salmon and prawns and liked both. The kids love the tuna sandwiches. We saw all the hot dishes come out of the kitchen the Sunday we were there and they all looked good and we heard compliments from other tables. I should warn the desserts are so tempting. So far we’ve had the chocolate cake, the walnut cake, the lemon ginger crunch, the fruit scone, and the brownie. You can’t go wrong with the scone. The lemon ginger crunch is our favorite so far. The cakes are not to sweet, but if you order the brownie, share it with at least two maybe three because it is decadent. We met Lizzy after the third time we went and she is hardworking, dedicated to her restaurant, and just lovely to talk with. Occasionally, you will also see some local teenagers working there. They are learning and very polite and eager; it’s nice, as a small business owner, she provides that opportunity for the younger folks in the community. And bottom line, that’s what Lizzy’s is about. You’ll see plenty of regulars in, but also the tourists from far away who help Risby by buying antiques or plants from the garden center. We think the service is spot on for the size of the kitchen and restaurant and the food tastes homemade. It’s like going to a friends house for lunch or tea, and she just happens to be a really good cook and baker. Go with that in mind. Take your time, talk to the folks working there, get cozy and read one of the magazines on the table...like you would at a friend’s house.
Lizzy's Cafe is in my local area and last week was the first time I have visited. The cafe was full but our large party enjoyed some lovely cakes and scones and teas and coffees. We will deffinately call in again soon.
Visited Lizzy's cafe at Risby barns a few weekends ago in need of a coffee! Such nice location and the chef (I assume was Lizzy) was polite and accommodating so much so we stayed for a lovely lunch panini. Certainly will be back soon as very confused about any negative reviews.
Great food, reasonably priced. Service was good, it's a small place and only 1 waitress and cook. Don't expect speed, expect good food!
Good coffee and cakes - great place to rejuvenate along a bike ride.
Very nice place. Food first-rate and reasonably priced.
Nice food and good coffee, served with a smile😀
