Southwater Country Park Cafe

We have had lunch and coffee here several times. There is a great selection and the food is lovely. You can sit outside overlooking the lake or inside if it’s raining.

Amazing cafe it offering a takeaway service lovely friendly staff and very professional bought a amazing coffe cake and somthing to cool ice cream sat on the grass and enjoyed overlooking beautiful lake

Been a couple of times this year. Last time last weekend. We’ve had coffees and ice cream. Staff were friendly. A little expensive but no more than you would expect at a park cafe type place. Toilets outside were clean

It is a year since we visited Southwater and we again found the service and friendliness up to standard. The food although not great value was at least hot and fresh. The coffee was average at best, but overall a very worthwhile stop.The ease of parking is good and at £3.00 all day is good value.

Had enjoyed a nice walk round the park and stopped off for a drink and a sweet bite to eat. Sadly the overall experience was one of substandard drinks and food. Could perhaps have slightly overlooked this given the current times but the cross and moody lady the younger lady was personable was very abrupt and came across as rude! Times are hard for everyone at the moment but after this experience I will not be returning anywhere soon much better places where to go where you are welcomed with a smile rather than a frown!

This little cafe is a gem! With a great view of the lake and outside seating, essential these days! I visit regularly with my husband for a walk round the lake followed by a coffee and homemade cake or a hot sausage roll, lots of good things on the menu.... and ice creams for children of all ages! Open all year its a must for a visit, there are interesting activities to watch on the lake kayaking, model yachts etc. while you enjoy the sun on the terrace of the cafe with a bite to eat. There is a play area in the park for the youngsters too and a pushchair accessible path. It's one of our favourite spots for a stroll, and a place to meet up with friends.

The two ladies in the cafe could not have been more helpful. The selection offered was limited but very delicious. I had a baked spud which was crusty on the outside and perfectly soft inside, I was given a very fresh crisp salad in my container which was a welcome surprise. My coffee was excellent. Children visiting were fighting for an ice cream from the extensive selection and parents were treating themselves to a price of cake which looked amazing. All the knives and forks were wood and containers recycled cardboard I felt very good about that. The views from the cafe were stunning. I would recommend the cafe at the country park to anyone wanting to have an affordable treat whilst soakin...

I have visited this cafe on 2 occasions once during the week and once of a Saturday and this will not be my last visit Our first visit was on a Wednesday we was a bit concerned about it as we had seen a few bad reviews via TripAdvisor so we really wasbt expecting much Meeting friends so never had a choice on our meeting place We had a coffee each and a Jacket potato nothing much could go wrong with that when ordering we was informed that it would take at least 20min to cooker as they was being bafe fresh Whilst waiting for our food it had found there was a very relaxing atmosphere there When our Jacket had arrived it was massive and they plate was full of salad it was very delicious The staf...

There is a lot of good and bad things to say about Southwater country park and their cafe.The park its self its very beautiful and is a nice walk there is a few things that need updating but on a whole its very pleasant, the children's play area gets a bit over Crowded but that is the case in every park there is beautiful swans on the lake and I think it would be a very relaxing place to visit in the summer Went to the cafe for a coffee and a bite and ot was my first and last visit.It was very busy inside no social distancing and only one sanitizer station.They had very loud music playing that made it very difficult to hear the lady taking our order There was 4 staff in there one seemed to b...
