Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Lovely food and coffees, quick service, great atmosphere. The staff were really lovely! Chilli and full breakfast were both delicious. And the rice crispy traybake and ginger cookie were insane!!!

Called in with our wee dog for some brunch and got a lovely welcome. Great ambiance and service, and latte was one of the best we’d had recently. Food was also high quality and tasty, and very reasonably priced. 100% recommend to anyone wandering through...Kendal!More

Came across this lovely cafe by chance. I always try and look for small/local firms instead of the big chains. What a lovely quaint place. Locally sourced food, local art for sale and first class customer service. Sourdough was fresh, avocado, eggs and bacon delicious...and very good value for money! Would highly recommend.More

While exploring the town of Kendal, searching for somewhere nice for lunch, I managed to have a nice lunch of BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich and a glass of Diet Coke. The sandwich tasted really nice. So, the next time I visit Kendal, I know where...to find lunch.More

Really lovely cafe with friendly staff and the food was really nice at a good price. The cowboy beans that came with the breakfast were really good and so was the sausage. Would definitely come again

Super lunch today in Kendal. Delicious coffee and the pulled pork sandwich was great quality - tasty pork, coleslaw, cheese and not sloppy. Would definitely order this again! Other menu items looked good too.

This lovely little café is on the Market Place in Kendal and it is real quality. Nice atmosphere, great service and superb food and very reasonable prices. We have been to restaurants that could match this combination. If your in Kendal and looking for some...good food or even just a welcome brew then this is the place you should go. We can highly recommend the bacon sandwich and the mushrooms on toast.More

This place is such a treat to visit ❤️🐾 We stopped on route from north wales to North Yorkshire. The staff are incredible and beyond friendly, probably the most dog-friendly cafe’ we’ve been to as a family of four with our cocker spaniel. Lunch was...delish, we had cold and hot sandwiches and paninis. The owner was lovely and checked we were happy with everything and had a really genuine conversation with us. On the way out we took coffees and cakes with us for our onward journey. Highly recommend this coffee and lunch spot. We’d love to come back!More

Just spent 5 days in the Lakes and this is the best place we have eaten lunch. A sandwich and a cup of tea. Made to order sandwich which means it is fresh not stuck in a cabinet/fridge for most of the day. The service...is excellent friendly and welcoming and to top it off the price was far less then we had paid the previous day a little over £12 (previous £17). Thank you David your name is on the receipt.More

Lovely lunchtime visit. Popped in for something to eat when visiting Kendal. Have been here a few times before and again we weren’t disappointed. We had the all day breakfast and the chilli. Both were delicious. Portion sizes were really good too. Service was prompt...and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Good value too. Stayed on for a coffee and a bit of cake. The orange and carrot cake was lovely. Would really recommend.More
