A little overpriced. From what I saw it appears the cappachino is made with instant coffee and frothed up. Really for £3.30. On plus side friendly staff, and so they should when 10 per cent service charge. Waitress overworked today when visiting but friendly. Also Off putting when you have school children coming to use loo with foul language and trying to jump queue. It should be for paying customers. Staff never asked them to leave.
Thank you for your response.
I was not aware that your coffee was powdered until I walked upto the counter and saw the young guy putting 3 spoons of powdered coffee into a pot , topping up with milk then frothing up. I drank the coffee I had which at the time didn't taste like bean coffee. For all intents and purposes it looked like instant coffee
The people using the facilities were school children iand had friends waiting outside for them. I now that as the young girl said to me can I jump in front of you I'm desperate and need to get back to school
They came of the street, and definatly not customers and did not order takeaway

Read moreI last reviewed this cafe some years ago when it first opened as a proper cafe but yesterday was my first visit in its present incarnation. My first impressions were not wholly favourable. I rather fancied a snack in the form of a sausage roll of the bread type but I changed my mind when I saw this would set me back £7. As regular cafe visitors such as I will know, the average small cafe price for this item locally is about £4.50 and the rest of my visit did little to explain the 55% markup. I am not sure that adding the word Lincolnshire before sausage wholly justifies it. Having scrutinised the premium prices, we decided to opt for a takeaway tea. The only staff visible during our visit were two teenage boys, one of whom disappeared backstage with our order. In typical coffee shop fashion. I stood to one side waiting for my name to be called. And waiting. And waiting. Our teas finally arrived 10 minutes or more later. I am guessing this must be par for the course as no word of regret was offered. The location is, of course, excellent and this may well be enough to see this venture thrive, but neither value or level of service seemed to us...
Read moreWe love this place—there’s nothing else like it nearby. Yesterday, we experienced their pizza night with a chilled DJ set, and it was fantastic. The lakeside setting is stunning, and the relaxed vibe from the music really set the tone for the evening. We had a guaranteed table, were welcomed with a cocktail, and enjoyed a superb charcuterie board alongside some of the best wood-fired pizzas I’ve had in a long time. Overall, a genuinely memorable experience.
And as proud regulars, perhaps we can help with some of the other reviews out there that seem confused about table service. Inside the restaurant area, you get brilliant table service and pay at the end. Outside of this area, you order from the counter and pay as you go, with food still delivered to nearby tables. The freedom to choose whichever suits your mood, or just take your food and sit anywhere along the stunning embankment. You couldn't...
