"We return here each time in the hope that things improve. Unfortunately nothing does!! The bike cafe has been ‘temporarily’ housed under a fixed marquee , which joins on to an open, large room for about 18m now. Fully equipped and to all intents and purposes, permanent. The food is good, but the service is deplorable. The system seems to be that only designated people take the order, or should I say designated person. I’ve never seen more than one. The waiting staff who can’t take orders, consists mostly of young people hanging around chatting. No one has any sense of urgency or duty. I was watching behind the counter after our order had been taken. About 5/6 people were behind the counter, drinking coffee or water and eating. They were chatting about where they were going that evening. One guy was making coffee. Two coffees went out the back, to staff presumably, and after what seemed ages, our coffee was done. By now, all the staff had disappeared. Then a guy appeared took the coffees but didn’t know which table they were for. Our food appeared, (she didn’t know which table they were for either). I had the jumbo hot dog which was, without exaggeration, the most charred sausage I’ve ever seen. I said I couldn’t eat it and the girl quickly offered to replace it. BUT WHO ON EARTH THOUGH THAT IT WOULD BE OK TO SERVE IT? I’ve no idea who, if anyone is in charge in this cafe, a young girl did go and sit with her lap top, looking officious, next to colleague who was eating his brought in lunch, but she didn’t appear to have any authority or awareness of the appalling service. We have had this experience a number of times (minus the charred sausage) but nothing seems to change. Doddington are missing a trick here as although not heaving, it was busy. I do hope they don’t blame the temporary situation as that’s no excuse. There are plenty of staff and there is plenty of good food. Buck your ideas up!!"

Had tea and scones, jam and clotted cream. The scones were the usual lovely quality, however the clotted cream had been stored somewhere warm and separated into a liquid cream. Visualizza piatti

Nice and warm in the café this afternoon, the staff were very obliging and welcoming. It was a cold day so i chose a seasonal latte and was offered soya or oat milk as I avoid saturated fat where I chose. I particularly noticed the staff diligently wiping tables which is a pet 'thing ' of mine!

I am a loyal customer of Doddington but I must say that recently I have been disappointed. The young staff on a Saturday need guidance. They are confused and do not provide the same level of service as is offered on a weekday. The young waitress spilt my coffee and said she would go get some ‘toilet roll’ to mop it up. The coffee was quite cold and my son didn’t really enjoy his breakfast as it wasn’t cooked very well. You have to go find the staff rather than them being attentive to you.

We ate there a couple of weeks ago. Two coffees, carrot cake and scrambled eggs on toast. Coffee was cheap. The carrot cake was to die for and instead of scrambled egg on toast I got a fruit tea! Went back today. We wanted two hot chocolates, one with cream. What did we get? Two lukewarm hot chocolates, mine had the cream! But marshmallows too! A very average hot chocolate at that. We’d waited that long for our drinks, sat in a drafty old tent that we just couldn’t be bothered to complain. Needless to say we won’t bother again. Visualizza piatti

The new revamped bike cafe is open but it seems without the previous level of customer service. Previous staff have been courteous however on enquiring about a table yesterday I was met with we are full. No sorry or would you like to wait. In fact when I asked when a table would be free I was told everyone had just sat down and I should try the other cafe! Really? This person was meant to be welcoming but she had obviously had enough that day and no training. It is bad enough that Doddington seems to be the last place in England where there is no diversity now we can add rude to the list of reasons not to visit.

Disappointing. We arrived at around 9.30 a.m. after a very early appointment at hospital and my husband ordered a full English Breakfast and I had the Vegetarian version. Nothing was hot even the plates were cold. The bacon my husband was given had either been under heat lamps or had been cooked for a while as it was tough, the beans were cold, the mushroom wasn 't properly cooked, toast only appeared toasted on one side no side plate offered for the toast by the way. The vegetarian version was OK but I 'd sincerely stop doing the veggie sausage, it was dire. My sauté potatoes were 'old ' they 'd been cooked for a long time or recooked. If there is a next time I 'll opt for a pastry. The tea...

"We choose this spot because of the many positive reviews. I guess we turned up on a bad day!I have only been introduced to coffee a few years ago despite being in my mid 50’s and really don’t like coffee unless a well made flat white. I travel the world frequently for work and always ask the same question, can you make a flat white? The reason being unless the person is a passionate barista I rarely get a coffee I enjoy. This question clearly upset the lady serving us who ‘rolled her eyes out loud’ by the question and then represented the request to her colleague in a manner that was more like ‘we have a pain in the arse’ than ‘can we make this gentleman a nice coffee. (Yes we overheard).Everything was fine except the flat white was a milky coffee and not something I enjoyed. Not a problem though. I never said a word but when asked at the counter how things were I thought I would say everything was good except the ‘flat white’. Immediately confronted by both in very hostile way was very surprising as I was only answering a question I thought they were interested in hearing I placed a review on their website and their response is a really good example of their attitude. Instead of focusing on service recovery they wanted to blame me and absolve themselves of any responsibility.I of course mentioned this to a few people in Sleaford and surprise surprise was met with very similar responses, ‘we don’t go there anymore as the staff can be very rude’ Looking forward to seeing how the proprietors decide to respond to this one."
