We were a group of 5 people all of us bought drinks and some ice creams from the gift shop. One of us needed to use the toilet, and were told that we had to be customers of the cafe to use the bathroom, so we went and bought something from the cafe just so our friend could use the toilet. The cafe was also empty, noone inside. After we bought the crisps, the friend went to use the toilet and we got shouted at just because it wasn't the specific person that bought from the cafe? We then specified that it was only one of us that would use the toilet, and they still said that whoever bought is the only customer. Very rude and did not make sense!

Welcoming place on a cold day. Wheelchair friendly. Children and dogs are welcomed. There is plenty of parking nearby. Lovely view of Coniston Lake. Friendly staff, helpful too. Good menu choices are available in the Boatmans cafe. Public toilet facilities are available in the car parking area. Catch the boat up the lake, and learn about Donald Campbell, who died testing out the famous Bluebird. Interesting commentry during the boat trip. Excellent views around the lake.

Awful staff and very rude. No disabled facilities. November 2023 What terrible staff with attitude. Me and my disabled wife who is in a wheelchair went in for some lunch. I couldn't get the wheelchair through the door and the staff just looked at me no help. I asked where we could sit because most of the tables were reserved. They said in a nasty way there is one over there. My wife needed the toilet but no disabled toilet!! So I asked the staff where she could go they said the ladies. Not disabled friendly!! I said I needed to take her to assist her because she cannot walk. I asked if I could go in and they said I suppose so in a very unfriendly way!! I said this was not acceptable and had to go in the ladies without them even checking the toilets were empty. I then asked to see the manager and a security man came to see me and said I had upset there staff. I explained what had happened and he was on there side. I find this kind of behaviour very unexceptable. My wife felt very humiliated and discriminated for being disabled. The staff should try and see what its like to be in a wheelchair. We are going to report this behaviour it should never happen ever. PLEASE AVOID..You just have to read the other customers reviews to see how rude the staff are!!!!!!!!

The tour bus of my fellow church retreat attendees stopped here after we came from Southport. This establishment was so warm and welcoming to us all. Everyone raved about it on our way back to where we were staying. This whole town seemed somehow disconnected from the passage of time, although it witnessed all the historic events for many centuries, it has not lost its charm from the time when life was simple and the world had not encountered the mad rushing of the 20th and 21st centuries. I am SO GLAD I CAME HERE!!! THIS IS THE NEATEST TOWN ON EARTH! AND THE WARMEST PEOPLE IN ALL THE WORLD, TOO!!!

Rude Staff!!! Two steps into the doorway and the waitress decided to shout from across the room that me and my family were not allowed toilets if we're not a customer. Literally two steps in, right on the doorway, in front of all the other customers. We had not mentioned or asked anything about toilets. It was raining and we wanted to get some coffee. We also had two more families joining us from the other car parks so we thought it'd be a good spot to meet up and get away from the rain before getting onto the cruises nearby. We felt humiliated and honestly at the time we were very speechless. I still can't understand why we were treated this way. The staff was extremely rude. She saw our faces (we're east Asian looking) and thought that's what we are all about??

Its human decency to be able to use a toilet especially disabled. Shes shouting and stopping people using a facility like this. Don't listen to her ranting on or any staff member for that sake.

Worst customer service experience Very rude staff We went to the cafe to have coffee and breakfast. My parents went to use the washroom, where one of the staff stopped them and asked where is your coffee order. I immediately saw that told the staff that I have already placed an order. But still he asked me if i ordered for each and every person. This is the first time I had such a bad experience in such cafe. I would recomment NOT to use this cafe as the staff is very rude.

Rude staff, we were on a coach trip and a sales man gave us a speech as a way to pay for the coach parking. I asked if there was a toilet in their cafe and I was told to use somewhere else. After getting back on the coach, all of the women I spoke to were offered the cafe toilet... Seems a bit odd. Also broken products sold for a discount but not even that cheap.

Arrived to find no body in the cafe, asked about breakfast as it was only 10am but was met with a very rude woman at the tills who told us that they weren't serving breakfast until after 11am because they were short staffed. There were no signs to say what exactly was on the breakfast menu which is why we asked. The same woman then proceeded to walk past us (the only table with people on in the whole cafe) and lock the toilets up so we couldn't go in even though the sign on the toilets stated that you could use them with a purchase. Would not recommend.

Fails the basics and generally under par Both urinals out of order Old covid signs still up Initially refused to serve us hot food as they had a pre booked party arrive after we had got there and been queueing. Then said it was 30 minutes.... Even though again we were there before the pre-booked party. We had to eat quickly so in the end bought Sandwiches which were ok but given we are still in August and trade should have been strong the place was half empty when we arrived and bar the pre-booked party nearly fully empty when we left at 12.15pm Disappointed as it really should be a gold mine given its location

Visited today with my partners family, 8 out of 9 of us had ordered our food and drinks. Getting to my turn I had only wanted a small meal as I’m pregnant and was feeling nauseous so asked for the kids meal of chicken nuggets and chips, the lady walked away from the person before me and just started talking to another staff member and I heard her mutter under her voice because it looked like she couldn’t be bothered to serve me. She then told me I’m not allowed that meal as it is for under 15s even though half the kids with us got an adult meal so it really made no difference to them? Really shocked by the customer service and we weren’t happy as a family that we’d already paid for the food before or we would have cancelled and went somewhere else. Customer service was terrible, didn’t feel welcome, and served overpriced food which was Wetherspoons standard. Definitely won’t be returning and please find alternative nicer coffee shops in the area that are worth spending your money on.

We were visiting the Lakes for a week and booked a boat trip for the morning. On our return to the pier, we were feeling peckish and were offered a 10% discount at the Boatman's. On arriving, the cafe was empty, solemn looking and a bit miserable to be honest! Being hungry and not knowing the area, we ordered drinks and food. The prices are LUDICROUS for what we ordered. £7 for a bacon baguette.... SEVEN POUNDS for something I could have made myself. This didn't even come with chips only a mediocre salad. The fish and chips was £8 and looked like they had come from the freezer. I wish wish wish we had not stayed; there is nothing worse than leaving a place to eat feeling ripped off. I don't mind paying nearly £30 for 3 meals, if I'm getting good quality food and service. This place offered neither.Wish I had read the reviews before coming, but we don't know the area. All I can say is avoid at all costs.

Mi finanzas me acababa de proponer matrimonio en el lago Windemere y teníamos sed y necesitábamos ir al baño, así que fuimos al café más cercano.Nos dijeron que no podíamos usar el baño hasta que hubiéramos comprado algo, aunque dije que pediríamos después de ir, esto no fue suficiente. El hombre fue tan grosero que sentí ganas de salir en este punto, pero estaba tan desesperado por ir al baño que continuamos pidiendo algunos pasteles de té y obtuvimos la llave para ir al baño. Honestamente, no puedo creer cómo el personal habla con sus clientes. Es una maravilla que el lugar siga abierto solo por esa razón.El interior del café es deprimente. El lugar es francamente un tugurio, dirigido por gente desagradable y la comida es muy básica, como una cuchara grasienta. Me recuerda al café al que van los perdedores de The Apprentice.No volvería si me pagaras. Arruinó lo que se suponía que iba a ser una ocasión muy especial para nosotros: lástima de Boatman's Cafe. Quizás debería leer algunas de las críticas abismales aquí y prestar atención a sus clientes que pagan su salario.

The boatman's cafe was our last chance with a desperate and discomfited 4yo in desperate need. Rather than help the staff of ignored us, then charged crazy prices for two drinks just to gain access to a magic toilet key that was never forth coming. Eventually forcing us to abandon the cafe in increasing desperate need to find facilities. Not helpful, terrible service. Avoid.

Este café se encuentra a pocos pasos del lago Windermere, justo al lado del aparcamiento de autocares y frente a un aparcamiento, pero lo único que tiene que hacer es su ubicación.Se supone que sirven sopa del día, papas y relleno, sándwiches, tostadas, pasteles, bollos y comidas calientes, pero cuando fuimos la sopa era brócoli y queso ahumado. . . yuk . . no quedaban patatas de chaqueta y los bocadillos estaban en un paquete. ¡Solo queda una opción de 3! Esto fue a la hora del almuerzo! ! De mala gana comí un sándwich pero el pan estaba empapado y no era tan apetitoso. Había una máquina de refrescos, pero no se usaba y las bebidas provenían de una botella a un costo de 1. 95 cada uno! !Probablemente esté bien solo para tomar un café rápido mientras espera a su entrenador, pero no lo recomendaría para el almuerzo. También fue caro para lo que tienes. Hay varios otros cafés cerca del lago que parecían más baratos que este (y también teníamos un cupón de 10% de descuento), ¡así que prueba uno de esos!

Un terrible almuerzo de sopa, directamente una lata acompañado de un panecillo medio horneado. Pagamos 4. 60 para la sopa de zanahoria y cilantro que puede haber venido de los gustos de Aldi? Las mesas y las sillas estaban limpias pero raídas, cubiertas de arañazos.La única gracia salvadora fue que este horrible lugar estaba a tiro de piedra del embarcadero # 2 desde el cual tuvimos un viaje muy agradable en el lago Windermere. Hicimos el "Tour de las islas" por 9. 00, que dura unos 45 minutos.

Absolutely fuming at the prices. £2.60 for a cup of black coffee that wasn't even big enough to satisfy (pictured for size) and £2.75 for a 400ml bottle of milkshake that sell for 50p in Tesco. I understand economies of scale but there is no excuse for these prices. The proprietors are obviously taking advantage of the number of foreign tourists who dont understand the currency. Shame on you. I wouldn't mind if the decor was nice but it's just greasy-spoon style tables, cutlery, crockery and condiments. Wont be back.

Vape,Vape,Vape, thought it was illegal to vape in pubs in England, not so!!! Just visit Churchills in Boness & vape to your heart’s content. You couldn’t make it up, twinned with the slaughterd lamb!

Unhelpful staff. Items quite dear. Full of children running around without parental control. Unsafe for a Visually Impaired person.

Used to be a little bit different, a little bit higher quality in ingredients and in beer offerings. Now it’s just the same downgrade Peroni to Nastro etc. Save a few pence but turns the product into the same as everywhere else instead of that small cut above. Such a shame.
