Nicolas lakeside cafe

What a surprise !

I have driven past the entrance thousands of times and live within walking distance. Today was the day that I gave it a try.

Once getting past the shock of passing a load of men smashing the ice to fish on a cold winter day I got inside the warm cafe. A warm welcome and all the fishermen were outside in competition mode so quick service awaited.

I was met with a smile and a welcome. Not long followed by a full English breakfast. Had a chat with a few friendly fishermen and enjoyed the atmosphere.

Really impressed and I will be back.

Enjoyed the small breakfast today, refill of tea/coffee included in the small and big breakfast. Well worth a visit

Just visited for the first time for Mother’s Day afternoon tea and it was lovely! Lovely staff and surroundings and the food was delicious. Will definitely be returning, looking forward to having a drink outside overlooking the lakes on a sunny day 😊

A massive thank you for looking after our backpack with all our valuables which we forgot when we left. We also enjoyed the tea and friendly welcome! Thank you very much.

2nd time I've been here . I took a few mates this time. Lovely setting by some lakes. Nicola and Grant run this place. Great food, biker friendly . Great hosts. Fishing was popular I don't fish but there was a competition on looked like they were enjoying themselves . If you're on your bike just be a little bit careful bc there's a couple of gravelly spots getting down the driveway. no problem but just be aware ! Loved it. Thanks for hosting us.

Can be a bit more cheerful but it is a cafe food is top Noch that's all that counts

Cracking breakfast and a cracking fishing venue. Grant and family are slowly turning this place into a fantastic day out I would highly recommend 💯

best food ever tasted the staff are lovely famley run business so much to do here grate prices and wheel chair access aswell I recomend 100% 🙂

Very good breakfast for the price.

Friendly, good food, good value. Can't recommend enough!

It's where I go fishing.

A lovely little spot and most impressed by the lovely decor and friendly service The breakfast was delicious and free refills of coffee was a big bonus .Shall definitely go again when the weather gets better .Did not give a full 5 stars as toilets were not on site and a bit of a walk away

Great breakfast, served in a timely manner. The owner was very friendly.

A good breakfast

Terrible staff when we went. Completely ignored us, said there’s menus on the table and there weren’t, no one came to take an order. Complete lack of customer service. Very disappointed
Just ended up leaving, staff didn’t even care they lost customers
