Camphill Restaurant in Milton Keynes

Great service, a nice sized slice of cake, and good value for money 😀

Lovely food - they have a specials menu to cater for vegetarians. The staff are really polite and always happy to help. The cafe had plenty of space and is well worth a visit.

Had a lovely coffee and cake. Cafe is spotless and service is very good. The cake was delicious. Would definitely go back as have good choices of cakes and other items especially as I am gluten intolerant.

A small piece of carrot cake & very dry quite expensive

Great fresh baked bread, cakes and coffee for a good cause too!! We stopped here whilst driving up North and it was just the perfect place for a break. They have an orchard and a great outdoor seating area. My son loved it!

Amazing vegetarian café / restaurant run by the friendly Camphill community with Chrysalis Theatre. They make great food with love. Their baked vegan Rosemary Focaccia bread is delicious and not excessively soaking in virgin olive oil. The café employs and shows compassion to neurodiverse staff, who may have learning difficulties and mental health challenges. The differently-abled café staff are friendly, kind and very helpful. We need more places like this across the country / planet earth. A must venue if you're visiting Milton Keynes.

We loved every second of our visit, looking forward to our next visit already! And they yummy cake!

Lovely vegetarian cafe which is staffed by support workers and residents of Camphill, who are adults with learning disabilities. As I work with adults with learning disabilities, it is great to see them working in jobs they really enjoy. There are some residents front of house, some in the kitchen and others help with the gardening and the bakery. The food is really nice, simple, fresh produce, using as much as they can from their own gardens and bakery. We had the special, which was roasted root vegetables, cooked with fresh herbs, all from their garden, on a thick slice of their own sourdough bread. There was homemade hummus and salad, too. Really simplistic, but so tasty and fresh.

Lovely cafe, nice snacks and they do meals but I think you have to book a table for those. Very friendly staff.

Always brilliant and good value.

Lovely and welcoming cafe in a scenic location with a tasty vegetarian menu. There are plenty of homemade cakes and bakes, as well as fresh soup and a daily main meal made with locally sourced ingredients. You can buy handmade bread there too! Prices are great and you know you are supporting a good cause.

This is a fab cafe to meet friends at, but you do need to book in advance. We did and it was great to see how many other tables were reserved. The food and service were great and everything is very reasonably priced and the proceeds go towards maintaining an amazing community. Well worth a visit and their fresh bread is lovely... Especially if you time it just right as it comes straight out of the oven 😋.

Love this place. So laid back and friendly. Delicious food ❤️

The Festive Menu 2023 beckoned a family group and we were richly rewarded! The stilton walnut & mushroom paté on sourdough was wonderfully crunchy with a rounded taste, well supported by the sourdough. The carrot roulade with the seasonal filling, accompanied by seasonal vegetables, was really satisfying and a delight to eat. The finishing touch was a wonderfully sublime lemon & white chocolate cheesecake with spiced (and locally grown) berries, all accompanied by a hot spiced non-alcoholic punch. Portions were just right too! This is a local vegetarian jewel that deserves to be fully supported.

If you need to avoid physical reaction to foods containing gluten there will not be a brilliant selection save for the lovely salads. The few gluten-free cakes are far too sweet, but. There are no meats, nor fish and fowl foods but I'm pleased to say that you may have milk in your coffee if you prefer it. My only criticism is the absence of meat on the menu. Perhaps it is too expensive, requiring more effort to comply with handling, I don't know. Nevertheless, it panders to the whims and fancies of the veggies which choose to avoid meat but not those who need to avoid gluten for strict medical reasons. Not many of these compared to the vegetarian faddies that may feel upset by the mere thought of eating meat, I suppose. On the whole, CCMK café does a good job for its staff and it's very good that some residents are employed there, too. The bakes and salads are lovely and it deserves support.

First visit and despite it being late in the afternoon we were made very welcome. Offered coffee and cake and able to buy quality fresh bread before we left. Friendly staff and excellent service.

Excellent homemade food. Warm and friendly atmosphere. Better to book a table beforehand

A fantastic cafe! Delicious food and the staff and atmosphere are wonderful. Some lovely items made onsite that you can purchase as well. Highly recommend visiting.

Had cake that were brilliant staff were friendly and kind. My only gripe not enough sign on tje canal to let people know of there whereabouts.

First time I’ve ever been there and most impressed I was, liked it soon as I walked in, pleasant atmosphere , friendly helpful staff and seeing as I was being taken out as a treat on my birthday, I couldn’t have been happier, thank you Dave

My absolute favourite place in MK.. where food is always perfect and the friendliest staff. Always a joyful experience.

Food was a delight with fresh and innovative flavours both in main meal salad and seasonal dessert. You can take home lovely bread and other baked items like premium biscuits. Service was good and welcoming. Nice space for outdoor dining in fine weather.

Popped in for lunch and have a tasty filling meal. Very friendly staff too. I will be back! Small shop inside where I bought some lovely bread.

Great spot for tea and cake while walking around the MK parks , lakes and canals. Its a vegetarian social enterprise for adults who need extra help and they do a great job for the adults and the customers. Also a good choice of gluten free cakes.

Booked for afternoon tea. Pre ordered our food. On arrival told they had been busy & food we had ordered had sold out!! Will not be going back

Pleasant place to sit either inside or out.

Nestled in a charming neighborhood, this café offers a delightful selection of mouthwatering cakes that won't break the bank.The cakes are wonderfully moist and bursting with flavor, making each bite a heavenly experience. The cozy atmosphere of the café adds to the overall charm, making it a perfect spot for indulging in a slice of cake and a cup of coffee.

One of our favourite local lunch places - the restaurant supplies some delicious and well-prepared house specials that have never disappointed, always with fresh salads etc. that are fresh & very tasty. We also on occasion buy the bread and/or honey there. It's been clearly a success because quite recently the car park was extended to cope with the increase in customers. It is also a facility serving the local community that deserves to be supported. Worth ringing first to book a slot though - it's pretty popular!

Great service, nice welcoming…definitely come again…

Cool, relaxing, healthy, peaceful, cheery place to eat!!!

On a Monday lunch, this had a real buzz and the offer included home baked sour dough and fresh English asparagus with a lentil salad with mozzarella. Dessert was a nice ginger cheesecake with rhubarb compote. Whilst we were there, the local Concrete Cow Brewery were delivering fresh cases of their local brew. Service was speedy and friendly.

Had high hopes for this cafe but was a bit disappointed. The restaurant was very noisy although it was pretty empty. It could just be the design of it, lots of wood etc and nothing to absorb the noise. The food was okay, the service was a bit lacking maybe as it was later in the day, not sure we would revisit unfortunately...

Curried spinach & lentil soup homemade bread Latte & fruit scone Lovely cafe though need to book .

Excellent food and helpful staff.

An excellent establishment, very well run with friendly staff Thoroughly recommended 👌

Despite being the last to leave, we felt no pressure to vacate our seats, finding the service kind and courteous. 🙏🥰🙏

Great food with big portions, lovely atmosphere and good service. All in all well worth the visit 😊 I like that everything is either veggie or vegan!

Lovely vegetarian menu and always delicious cake

Great place to meet for a catch up or lunch. Freshly prepared food served by attentive staff.

Had a spot of lunch here. Was lovely outdoor area to eat. Good value. Would be nice to have some meat options (even if it is just a couple), but otherwise was very pleasant.

Great little pretty place. lovely cream tea Friendly staff .

Felt very covid safe. Panelling between tables and mask wearing mandatory. Would certainly go again

Lovely place for a veggie lunch.

Lovely soup for lunch in a niece friendly relaxed atmosphere.

Lovely fresh food. Friendly service. Tables spaced apart with screens. Glad to see it busy.

I really liked this cafe. Works for its community and provides excellent food and drink with emphasis on sustainability. Service from Victoria was brilliant and she took the time to explain the whole community ethos to us. It has a wonderful setting almost alongside the Grand Union Canal just out of Campbell Park in Milton Keynes

Lovely place and lovely people. Food is a bit limited for gluten free. Otherwise 5 stars.

A great place for food and beverage and all the proceeds go to a great cause. Recommend to everyone.

Lovely hot chocolate and a scone

Camphill Cafe近Willen Lake, 係一間 隱世嘅茶座，環境極優美寧靜。食物亦算佳及便宜,值得推薦。

Polite staff and delicious food. A safe environment with fresh air.

Great experience here, fantastic food and service and all in a worthy cause.

Excellent idea. Unfortunately you will be ejected if you turn up 25 minutes before closing time. I must re-read the definition of "closes at 4pm."

Beautiful peaceful place with excellent homemade cakes.

A nice place to drop into friendly staff good food at reasonable price all set In nice surroundings

Wonderful lunch in a community cafe. Highly recommend the salad

Great service and cake was amazing!!

Brilliant place need more of these around the country, well worth a visit even though I only had a coffee, while having a walk along the canal.

My first visit as I had a day off work sadly only open Mon to Fridays.

Definately the place to go for coffee, cake and a chat. Make it the top suggestion for your next coffee and chat meeting

I met a friend and we had coffee and cakes. Both delicious. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

Clean and welcoming. Picnic tables to sit outside when weathet petmits. Different meals at different times of day. Cakes looked good.

Delicious lunch with a great choice of vegetarian foods. Service was attentive and prompt in a lovely informal atmosphere. Would highly recommend a visit to this hidden Gem

Delicious vegetarian food, but do not cater well for gluten free. They usually have a gf cake, but never bread

The atmosphere is very comfortable and the food is great.

Not only is the food lovely but the atmosphere and the beautiful artwork on the walls definitely worth a visit.

Nice location friendly staff. Fresh food.

First visit today and can't wait to go back.

Such a lovely place. Great food and welcoming staff.

great hidden little cafe. hot scones with jam and clotted cream . Amazing xx Nice seating inside as well as outside. Overall will definately come again

Love this place, good service and tasty food. It's vegetarian which is a pleasant change from most cafes. We're not vegetarians but appreciated the lovely salad that was prepared for us. Definitely reccomend.

Whilst cruising along the Grand Union we decided to stop here for elevenses. What a lovely place. The food was very good value and home made and the service was very friendly. We browsed in the onsite shop afterwards and bought some delicious freshly baked bread which was thoroughly enjoyed later back on our boat. We will definitely be back.

Amazing home cooked food. What a great little place.

Ot visited in ages and it's still as good as ever. Good freshly cooked healthy food, well served and surroundings are great too. Will definately return, it's a fantastic facility employing people with learning difficulties and it's a privilege to see.

I've been working as a volunteer over the past few months and hadn't ventured into the café until only a couple of weeks ago. I wasn't disappointed. There's a lovely atmosphere in there, with some of the residents of the Camphill community working as waiters and waitresses. The walls are covered with artworks, some of which are for sale, an added incentive to visit might be to look at, and possibly buy, some of these artworks. The food is excellent, beautifully prepared and presented. I've had several cheese toasties and the cakes are exquisite. I shall come back on the days I'm there and definitely recommend to others to visit if they haven't already. It must be popular by the number of people that were eating their lunches when I arrived and more were coming in as I left. First rate!

This was our first visit to Camphill which is a charity for people with learning disabilities. The staff were eager to please and this made for an enjoyable experience. I hadn’t realised it was a vegan café but this is self evident from the menu and food (see comment below). I chose to have a milk shake which was disappointing as it was essentially flavoured milk; however my Victoria Sandwich cake was delicious even though the texture was a little unusual. I’m sure we will return as there was seating in the garden where we could sit with our dog but I’ll be more selective about my choices.

Excellent ss always. Great food and location for canal walks.

We enjoyed a fantastic fresh lunch today. Beautiful food and Beautiful kind people! Will definitely be back again soon

Couldn't be better. Lovely people and a great cupa.

Wonderful and heart filling place

Lovely atmosphere and great food

A very enjoyable meal with a friend and friendly, polite and happy Staff.

As always great food with a warm and lovely atmosphere.

This is a vegetarian Cafe, the food is very good, today I had a breakfast of scrambled eggs on wholemeal toast, with mushrooms and baked beans, washed down with Barley Cup, an alternative to Coffee, as I have acid reflux

Been some time since my last visit and once again we were very pleased with todays experience. The staff are so keen to help, proud of their bakery products and it is great to be served by people who clearly like their work. Today we settled for the Broccolli & Almond soup. Large bowl of nice and thick, beautiful tasting soup accompanied by two different breads. Coffee was excellent although the Iced Fruitcake was a bit on the dry side. Tasty though and packed with fruit. Always come out feeling satisfied in more ways than one.

Within a community for learning disabled people serving organic and vegetarian food. Good value. Free parking nearby. Popular with local people.

A very welcoming environment with beautiful food in a beautiful area! I highly recommend this cafe.

Such a lovely cafe right on the doorstep of Willen Lake which is across the road. Vegetarian menu with good choice of snack food. I recommend a visit. Plus the little shop on site is a must visit and see place.

Wonderful place for lunch. Highly recommended

fantastic place food very good and lovley gift shop with fantastic bread

Excellent and delicious lunch with friends

Something about this cafe I love. Calm atmosphere, great food, art. I look forward to coming here - a treat!

Delicious food and friendly sevice

Another excellent lunch at Camp Hill Well done great service and freshly cooked amazing food turned me into eating more vegetarian food

Great place for vegetarian lunches with friends plus shop for home baked bread ,

Camphill Cafe was very busy today and they still managed to serve hot and tasty food. A very popular and confortable place to eat.

I used to visit this cafe a lot. It still lives up to its reputation. Excellent food, great service. Lovely sense of humour from our waitress. Today we just had drinks and scones with jam. Then a lively walk near by to the tree cathedral, Willen lake a d the peace pagoda. Very handy from the cafe as the car parking is free. You can walk over a foot bridge into the Willen park.

It's been a while since I last visited Camphill and I was very pleased to see that the food is still excellent. My friend and I visited with her blind Labrador dog this week for coffee and a chat. We both had the soup of the day, which was broccoli and almond soup with Camphill bread. The soup arrived with two different wedges of bread, both of which worked very well for dunking in the soup and mopping up leftovers without leaving any stray crumbs. The bread also came with a butter portion. As for the coffees, I had a lovely creamy latte and my friend had two cappuccinos. This cafe continues to be a top place to go for vegetarian food, just be prepared to allow more time for service than at other cafes as it is a training establishment.

Nice little veggie cafe staffed by the residents at the Camphill Community. Limited opening hours. Reasonable prices.

A little gem that we found when we were on the canal. Very near to the Peace Pagoda
