The Five Rise Locks Cafe — Restaurant in Bradford

I had such a bad humiliating experience from this place, brought my 2 children and my dog for a coffee and a break from the walking that we did. Staff didn’t help me carry my tray to my table when I had hold of my young son and my dog. My daughter spilt juice all over the table staff again didn’t help me was expected to struggle and clean it up myself bearing in mind I still had hold of my younger son and my dog. My son ran off in the kitchen again staff didn’t help me had to fetch my dog into the kitchen to grab him and I was getting stared at. My son was being very difficult for me and non of the staff did nothing to help me just got stared at. I felt so embarrassed they could have at least come over to me and asked if I was okay or given my chid a colouring book or something. I got home and was that upset how I had been treated called the manager and she didn’t seem bothered she said we don’t cater for children. Hmmm okay that’s weird because you have a children’s menu so clearly you do cater for children. She didn’t care. So embarrassing for a mother i was so stressed and upset. Not nice...

If walking along the Leeds-Liverpool canal or just visiting the 5-Rise Locks, one cannot make a better choice than to call into this cafe. It is a place we call into many a time when walking our dog in the area.

The staff are always very friendly and helpful. We generally just have a coffee and a little snack, there is plenty on offer and both coffee and cakes are always great. Even dogs are catered for, the sausage goes down really well!

Always a popular spot, be it with cyclists, walkers or visitors to the area, this café is a good place to call in for a snack or something more...

Amazing food, drinks and service.

We have been here many times before and this again was one of our chosen stops for a Sunday day trip around the area on our bikes.

The food, drinks and service are always excellent even when it is very busy. The cafe is a very popular place as it is right beside the canal and famous five rise locks which attract people from near and far all year long.

It does get very busy sometimes but the surge quickly dissipates and it's quiet once again. I for one will always try and drop in for a drink and a bite to eat whenever...
