Applestore Cafe in Wyre

Lovely Cafe to have breakfast or lunch. Service was quick and food cooked just right. Dog friendly. Good selection.

What a way to end Nicky Nook walk 🩷 Welcomed by friendly and very patient staff (we kept changing our minds 🤣) Lovely day so we sat outside, surrounded by nature, the cafes grounds are beautiful. A Robin stayed with us for the duration of our visit ❤️ I had the nicest granola bar, followed by ice cream ❤️🩷💙💚 Will be popping back on a weekend to visit the artisan market ✨️✨️

Really cute, quaint, out of the way place, but lovely after a walk.

My wife and i had the smallest ever bowl of soup ever at £6-40 not cheap and it was,nt even that hot ,total rip off ,soup is cheap to make in volume ,there was,nt enough to feed a child ,never again

Lovely place to relax and enjoy the soundings perfectly peaceful x

Food good. Service good. A good, people watching place! Very friendly .

An Amazing place , and Team or so helpful thank you 👍🌞

Food was lovely, the scenery was beautiful and the staff were very friendly

We had a Father’s Day lunch and absolutely loved the food and the service was fab! The goats cheese salad on the special was amazing :)

An excellent venue. Highly recommend

Took a lil' drive to the quaint village of Scorton and had a lovely lunch at our fave café in the area. Thoroughly enjoyed the slow-cooked pulled beef brisket on ciabatta served with roasted onions, horseradish, roasting stock gravy, skin on fries plus slaw and Leek & potato soup. Cosy ambiance, charming walled garden and glasshouse with hearty meals ~ ticks all the boxes for us. I highly recommend this place.

We had booked a large party of 25 adults and 4 children for a family reunion to remember a loved one who we had lost the previous year. The staff at Applestore Cafe were very accommodating to our large party, always happy to help and paying the bill at the end was done with ease. The food was brilliant, with compliments from everyone at the party and the atmosphere was lovely. 100% recommend!!

Lovely quirky cafe. Plenty of choice. Food was hot and fresh and the homemade cakes fabulous. Staff very friendly would defo return.

Lovely as always, I stopped for a coffee and cake after a lovely walk. Highly recommend 🥰

Such a beautiful place to have lunch, I love taking my family here because there's some lovely walks nearby along with great food and service. Really recommend!

A lovely place, great food and amazing staff.

We visited this lovely establishment yesterday afternoon to celebrate my 70th birthday. There were 5 adults and my great grandson aged 15 months. We ordered food off the lunch menu which was very tasty. Beef brisket, onions and horseradish on a ciabatta bun with a yummy jus, fries and coleslaw. My great grandson had chicken goujons and fries. The chicken was a bit too spicy for him, but he devoured the fries. He was then presented with a delicious homemade butterfly cake with buttercream and homemade jam which he absolutely loved. The meal was finished off with a huge slice of lemon and mascarpone cake, brought out complete with candles and everyone singing happy birthday. A lovely afternoon in a beautiful setting with friendly staff. Although the weather wasn’t great the setting is beautiful. I will return and would definitely recommend a visit.

Called in today (21/05/24) 3:15pm was quiet 4 of us I had meatball ciabatta with chips really tasty! And rest had coffee and cake which was fresh and moist, the staff we encountered were really friendly. Great experience and would recommend.

A sunny day in May (well, actually any day) is the perfect time to visit the Applestore Cafe. Not only is there a varied and interesting menu with something for everyone, but there is a choice of indoor seating in the bright and light conservatory, but also plenty of outdoor seating on the grass and terraces. The food is always delicious and it's licensed so you can have wine, beer, gin, etc as well as a great choice of soft drinks. The leafy environment makes it my perfect cafe ❤️

I ordered a Tasty Lancashire granary bap at lunchtime before going for a walk over Nicky Nook. Instead received a white bap with grated mild cheese, possibly mild cheddar. After waiting for sometime for the order to arrive, I decided to eat it anyway but not satisfying at all.

Great cafe overall, lovely area to eat at but I’ve only eaten at the outside seating so can’t comment on the inside eating per day. It wasn’t very clear for a first time where to get the menus or where or how to order without having a wonder around and asking the staff is I would say the only downside. The staff themselves are friendly helpful and the food variety and quality are very good, lots of nice drink and dessert options to choose from as well.

I booked a table for 9 people and when we arrived there was no record of our booking. The staff did their best and got us a table for 6 and our kids had to sit outside!We ordered food and it took an hour to arrive by which point all of our children were getting very hungry. The food was very nice when it arrived. The staff seemed very harassed and they stopped taking all food orders at 2pm. Unfortunately this place is a victim of its popularity and does not seem to be able to cope with the numbers of customers during busy periods.

The setting of Applestore is wonderful and is hard to beat on a sunny day. We did a 5km walk around Nicky Nook before having an early lunch in the garden. The food and drinks are good, but nothing special. Where it falls down is on service. While the folks who work there are polite and friendly, it always feels chaotic and like there is no real system. For example when my friend went to order she didn’t know the table number and then after nipping back to find it was forced to queue all over again after. When the food came out of the kitchen, the man serving yelled out the table number, as if he didn’t know how to find the table. In that case, they could just use order numbers. Although his yelling was a bit of a vibe-killer so not sure why this had to happen and why the staff don’t know the table numbers. But as I say, it doesn’t feel like they have systems in place for efficient service which is why I’ve given 3* not 4*

The Applestore Cafe has a lovely setting but when it’s busy on a Bank Holiday, don’t expect to get seated quickly and expect to wait at least an hour for food. They take your table number and call you to order but the management work off two different lists, so we walked out after others that came after us got served first. Very dis-organised.

This place was really nice and relaxing with all the nature inside the cafe. The cakes are delicious and the milkshakes are amazing the staff were really friendly thanks for an amazing time really recommend the apple cafe.

Been once, wouldn't go back. Disappointing

Fabulous food, & lovely artisan shops - paintings, woodcraft, fossils, gin making, pottery, beauty & health....

We went here today for the first time We were made very welcome and had the best scones we have ever had!! The home made jam Carole gave us was to die for!! It's a must visit

I dont like giving bad reviews because sometimes businesses have a bad day, a run of bad luck, etc. But given the price of the food, the lack of service and the fact this is supposed to be a wedding venue, then im going to have to share We hadn't been in a while, but it looks like they've changed the name to the Striped Apple? Not sure why, have they changed hands? They used to make really nice chunky chips, now they make generic fries. So that was the first disappointment. The staff were pleasant enough initially. My pregnant partner made out right from the beginning when ordering that she was gluten free, but when they brought her hogless roast sandwich, she had to double check the bap was gluten free, as it looked the same as mine. The waitress went off to check, came back and took the dish away as it wasn't gluten free and whoever works the kitchen replaced the bap with some generic slices of gluten free bread, unbuttered. Her dish came back a little colder. I had the Swiss Steak Sandwich on what was supposed to be a ciabatta. It just looked and tasted like a standard bap to me. It came with a small portion of tasteless fries. At no point during our meal did anyone come to ask how things were! This is basic catering service! Several hours later, my partner now has symptoms of gluten ingestion. Call it a hunch, but we think they scraped the hogless roast from the gluten bap onto the gluten free bread, thus cross contaminating it. Both meals, by all accounts, were extremely bland. We just couldn't taste anything. I even separated out some of the ingredients to sample by themselves, but they were all texture and no flavour. So too was the hogless roast. Although it did taste like someone had squeezed some cheap bbq source into it. For the price, really poor. Ordinarily I'm a cake fiend, but given the price of the food and the lack of flavour we decided to cut our losses and leave. My bland sandwich cost the best part of £14, my partner's hogless roast sandwich was around £12. For £30 and considering this is supposed to be a wedding venue, we would have thought the food would have some flavour to it, that the staff would communicate our fairly basic dietary requirements and that the staff would check in on us at some point to make sure everything was OK. Again, this is basic catering. The coffee was good though. Just don't waste your money on the food and probably give it a miss if your have any food intolerances. Hopefully these guys don't do the wedding catering or you'll have a wedding meal to forget. A real shame, as this place used to be alright.

Good to stop for the facilities but the food and drink is extremely overpriced and took ages to arrive. Coffees were spilled before they were handed to us, tiny plate was inappropriate for the huge bit of cake, and the soft drink wasn't the one I asked for. 15 quid for a couple of mediocre coffees, a slice of cake and a soft drink is ridiculous. The cake was nice at least!

Used to love this place. However, since the change of menu and change in chefs/Striped Pig, unfortunately, the quality of the food has gone down significantly. Maybe just a few teething issues, but I didn't think the food was worth the money. It's such a shame. I will maybe try again in a couple of months...

Lovely food and really attentive staff. Thoroughly recommended.

Very pleasant breakfast in quiet surroundings. Might get a bit hot on some days because the bit we were sitting in is basically a greenhouse.

Only an overall 1 star for this place. Expected a lot more as so many of my friends recommended it. But in reality it wasn’t good. Visiting on a Monday morning there was room on the car park. This is NOT a place to visit if you are managing a mobility disability. Path to restaurant quite difficult. Steps with single handrail into the eating area. Tables are rickety. So are the chairs. We just chose a bacon / egg bap and a latte each. The bacon was cooked nicely but sadly lacked flavour. The coffees were brought to the table with most of the coffee swilling out of the cups when the young lady was carrying them to the table. Overall disappointing. Tried it once. Don’t need to go again

Love this place, staff are wonderful, food is tasty and good size portions, not to mention it came in record time even though we were a group of 8. Lots of room to sit outside. And near a playground for the kiddos to enjoy. Attracts lots of dogs/dogwalkers, the dogs were all very well behaved and looked after

Lovely place with excellent food and quick and friendly service

Impromptu visit here after a trip to the lakes we had a quick search of google maps and found this on our route home. Lovely place in a great spot. Food was really good and the place is dog friendly 🐶. We hadn’t booked but not a problem on this Sunday lunch time. Would visit again :-)

Lovely meal and the staff were helpful and friendly.

We had some Coffee, Tea, Scones with Jam and Clotted Cream and a Victoria Sponge cake.

Fantastic. Delicious salad, custom made for my complicated dietary needs (gluten-free, dairy free, onion free). Very accommodating and reassuring. Said it was no bother at all.

The chicken and watercress soup was mind blowing. Without doubt the best soup I've ever eaten. I've been thinking about it for days. I ordered it with a hot pulled pork sandwich, this was also very nice. The soup was so good I wish I'd just ordered two bowls of that though. Exceptional.

Excellent service, delicious variety of vegan and vegetarian food options in a beautiful picturesque setting.

Our chicken and veg homemade broth was lukewarm, thin & not plentiful! It was served with a small barmcake/butter. It was also far too expensive for the portion size. The place was busy both inside and out and the staff were very rushed but all were friendly and efficient. Improvements are being made to the infrastructure incl toilets thank goodness and there is more parking. Overall we probably won't eat there again but maybe just for a pot of tea or a coffee. Not as good as it used to be.

Unfortunately when I went to the restaurant after my great walk ( it's a very beautiful area for a walk) it was 8.30 In the morning tried to get in but was advised they were not yet serving so I cannot give any advice on this one I went elsewhere.

Went here with 12 girls for breakfast on a hen weekend. The new owner couldn't do enough for us, food was delicious and the setting was perfect. Would highly recommend

Went for lunch today. Opted for the tomato and chorizo soup with beautiful fresh bread. It was just delicious. Service was quick and the staff were very friendly and accomodating. The setting is really lovely and relaxed. Also bought a slice of cake to bring home.

Had the most amazing lunch today with my friends will definitely be back Thank you ☺️

It was closed but advertised as open. Drove all the way there to find out.

Perhaps they could update their Google entry. THE PLACE IS CLOSED

This is such a fabulous spot. I absolutely love it. Amazing setting in a beautiful area, lovely staff and great coffee and food. I'd come here every day if I lived a bit closer!

Nifty nosh near Nicky Nook We had a fab family feast after walking up Nicky Nook. Arriving early with fewer relatives than expected the people there accommodated us perfectly with attentive but not intrusive service. Everyone was delighted by the food: burger; fish and chips; huevos rancheros; and a Tuna sandwich. The coffee was excellent and they have some choice local bottled ale. The place is light and airy but was warm and welcoming on a wet wintry day to a bunch of wet walkers with drenched dachshunds. We’ll be back for more

Yes we went the other week went for a breakfast but just missed so got a lobley Bailey chocolate drink 🍸 And a sandwich was good will go back again

Excellent cafe with fabulous home made food and cakes to die for. Staff really lovely. Great kids playground in the woods. Love the build your own breakfast on the menu !

Good food and staff and dog friendly.

Lovely place. Fantastic club sandwiches.Dog friendly.

Came for festive dinner evening, service was very good, great food and a great atmosphere. Christmas dinner was brilliantly cooked.

Really nice cosy, classic barn type cafe. Well worth a trip.

A very busy cafe with a great range of food and drinks. The burger I had was very good value for money. The only thing they could add is a draft beer option. They currently only have bottled beers.

Fabulous food and location with craft shops on-site. We stopped off for lunch after a circular walk. They were incredibly busy, but the service was still good.

Great food and amazing cakes. Brilliant after walking nicky nook, or cycling up there.

Lovely place. Met up with some friends had a hot club sandwich followed by a carrot cake. Let dogs in which is a bonus. Nice staff and quick service. Didn't feel rushed to eat our meal. Very relaxing 😌

Amazing place to walk and go for breakfast or dinner or tea... Lovely setting lovely food.

Waited 50 minutes for two cups of coffee and a Coke! After 30 minutes I chased this up, they apologised saying that they had a large number of people arriving. Well it was 1pm on a Saturday, dinnertime 🍽

Great little cafe for food and drink.

Lovely service and always has some nice specials, dog friendly with a nice atmosphere

Love it at The Apple Store. Their coffee and cake is really yummy.

Beware the cost of toast. £2 for 1 slice with butter another£1 for a small jar of jam. Sorry Applestore way to expensive even Costa give you 2 thick bloomer slices butter and jam for £2.50. Won't be coming to you again. Jean and Mike Garstang.

A hidden treasure in the hills. A beautiful setting and great food

Always a great experience! Staff are polite, food is excellent, and the location is superb. Well worth a visit. I travel over 4000miles twice a year to visit. UPDATE: Latest visit 1st of Oct 2023. Absolutely appalled by the decline in service and quality at this establishment. I have been a loyal patron for years, but after my latest visit on Oct 1, 2023, I have decided that it will be my last. The service was abysmal, with clueless staff failing to fulfill simple requests and failing to seat us properly. And don't even get me started on the food. The order was completely wrong - instead of chips, we were served measly wedges. But that's not all. The chips we did receive looked like they came from the bottom of a fryer, as shown in the attached picture. To top it off, the chicken wrap we ordered had a grand total of three pathetic portions of chicken. It is simply unacceptable that such subpar food and service would be offered at such exorbitant prices. This feedback has been shared with friends and family who used to also frequent your establishment.

Very bust at times, but nice cake and tea....great after a walk, sit outside with a nice coffee and cake.

I always enjoy taking lunch at the applestore & treating myself by taking home a piece of one of the many freshly made cakes. On this occasion, I took 2 elderly lady relatives for a treat, which they both enjoyed.

Lovely food and atmosphere, friendly service too & great value for money! Thank you 🙂

Great burger and chips, very pleasant sitting in the conservatory. Very good, polite service. Good value for money.

First visit. Great atmosphere. Outside inside. Just had 2 hot chocolates with cream. Hot and very nice. Friendly team. Worth a visit.

Tranquil cafe with excellent quality and range of food

Really nice spot. A little out of the way but good menu and tasty food in lovely surroundings. We will be back.

It is a lovely place, we sat outside with the dog and it feels very private as the benches are far apart in the garden. Food was excellent. And we bought cakes to take home. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Super Frühstück, tolles Ambiente, schöne Umgebung mit kleinen Shops einschließlich Gin-Tasting!

Sticky table, Poor over cooked fish and chips. The chips looked like they had been cooked the previous day then re heated, the fish was mainly batter and seriously over cooked also the peas where probably not cooked - cold . Awful food. My hot chocolate was not hot either just Luke warm. The place looks nice though - shame.

A lovely cafe in a great walking location. We went on a bank holiday and despite being very busy, service was prompt and the food was good. After travelling back to Oxfordshire we realised we left a pair of walking boots in the car park. Sally from the Cafe kindly retrieved the boots and posted them to us. Such great service!

Very good and pleasant sevice quick Izzy absolutely lovely girl

Very nice sat under the shade, lovely atmosphere. Not a lot of choice gluten free cakes.

Gorgeous food and lovely staff thankyou x

Lovely cafe, beautiful setting, helpful and friendly staff!

Great place very popular, lovely food.

Nice cafe, lovely location, friendly staff.

Pleasant cafe with helpful staff. Daily specials ( the special burger today was was really nice), good size portions. Reasonable prices. Brunch, lunch and afternoon menus.

We sat outside in the garden which was lovely.Really enjoyed our Jacket potatoes and milkshakes.Staff are lovely.

Lovely little cafe, good was delicious, great menu and staff

Delicious food. We visited several times over our visit and the service and food was excellent every time. Thankfully they still had the chocolate flake cake so the boy was happy.

Ein sehr schönes Café mit sehr gutem Frühstück, tollem Personal und zauberhaftem Ambiente. Unbedingt vorbeikommen!

Great place, good food , good walks...bloody sold out of scones though 🥺

Lovely setting for a quick lunch.

A Cafe with Great Potential Hindered by Service Issues I've been a regular at this cafe for some time now. It has such huge potential as is such an amazing setting with what seems like lovely management. Unfortunately, my experiences have been consistently overshadowed by unfriendly and unhelpful staff. It's disheartening to encounter the same issues every visit – from staff reluctance to smile to outright rudeness. This place holds so much promise, but the service really lets it down. The food is average, and I've wanted to love it here, but the unwelcoming atmosphere created by the staff has pushed me to explore other options. With some attention to staff training and friendliness, this cafe could truly shine. I hope the management takes this feedback constructively as a chance for improvement.

Lovely meal with friends, highly recommend.

Lovely little cafe with plenty of vegan options.

Great breakfast after a swim. Very friendly staff.

Great place to visit food is great price and lots of activities to work up an appetite

Lovely surroundings, small craft businesses with classes (pre book) wood crafting, art photography, paddleboarding; nice walks, parking.

Good food and a nice place to eat , weather permitting outside dining has a good outlook ie views, prices are reasonable, toilets are accessible outside, however wheelchair access could be a struggle with some of the entrances, children's playground is good, plenty of parking
