Casbah Coffee in Eden

Lovely little set up here and my coffee was perfect, especially on a cold weekday morning before getting the train. Would definitely recommend to anyone, never mind just coffee tasting lovers. There was also such a lovely vibe with the music playing and warm set up.

For sure the best coffee you’ll get in Penrith, possibly England. Totally know their stuff on all of the variants. No burned 1 litre lattes here, this is a real cup of coffee.

El mejor café en Penrith, y un servicio tan amable también, lo recomendaría encarecidamente. Nos contó sobre los mejores lugares para comer en la zona.

This little van is a welcome sight on a chilly day in Cumbria whilst waiting on penrith station provides a hot brew cheerful music and friendly banter

Este servicio de café, aperitivos pequeños y periódicos es bastante nuevo en la estación de tren de Penrith y es muy bienvenido. Vendedor alegre, mucho mejor café que el establecimiento de al lado de la calle o el vagón del tren.

This was a very pleasant surprise; to find a real quality coffee with excellent service and a distinctive ambience by the entrance to Penrith station. We sat at one of the pretty tables in the sunshine, and enjoyed glancing at “The Life of Johnny Cash”, one of the books and magazines provided for customers. Open every weekday until 1.00 pm; we loved it and will be back for more.

Starbucks was excellent, not a place I usually frequent for coffee, but the service, coffee and staff were excellent

I had some troubles paying with Apple Pay, but the barista was incredibly friendly, happy, and outgoing! Once everything was sorted out it was easy to have a chat and walk away feeling like there are nice people everywhere. Would absolutely come back, and recommend for their excellent coffee for a long train journey:)

This place is rebound for its great coffee so glad my wife and i got yo try it for ourselfs! loved!!

This little trolley sits right outside the front of Penrith Station (not where it appears on the TA map!) serving top notch coffee. My flat white, prior to the long train journey home, was served by the knowledgeable owner at the perfect temperature. Highly recommended for fellow coffee lovers.

Superb coffee. Have not had a better latte. Great coffee flavour & lovely frothed and creamy milk. Doesn’t get any better. Fantastic music whilst you wait! Worth a trip to the train station for a coffee

Train delayed. Found £1.20 in my pocket. Not enough for a flat white. But just right for a piccolo. No idea what it was but the guy said it was good. How right he was! It's like a micro flat white. Delicious.

On way home down south and needed petrol. On my way in and spotted the tent! The others went to McD! I headed back and got a superb coffee. Rather than the soul-less service at McD! I met a really nice guy with a great story and some great coffee! Now next time I’m up that way, prob Xmas I’ll definitely take a drive from Kendal to get another coffee. Rock the Casbah!

This coffee bar at the front of Penrith train station is a gem! The coffee beans used are five-star, whilst it's great to be able to support a local business. Definitely stop off here before boarding your train!

Definitely the best coffee around! Mike's coffee (from the talented Rinaldo) is delicious, and for me preferring decaf that's a very rare find. Smooth, skilfully made coffee, a very friendly welcome in all weathers and snacks and papers to speed you on your train journey. Commuting has become so much more enjoyable since Mike's van arrived.

If your anything like me and you have to travel from Penrith early in the morning then there is nothing better than starting the trip with a quick chat and coffee with Mike. Not only does he make good coffee, but he plays half decent music and is able to discuss most subjects under the sun with a smile. For that I am always grateful.

A little known gem of a place - such a small station but such good coffee, provided by Mike who is always happy to chat and serve his lovely brew. Just what you need on a morning before the train - coffee, Mike and his music.

We got to Penrith Station early and had time for a coffee. Outside the station is a Casbah coffee van. Charming barista. Fantastic coffee of Flat Cap Coffee Company standard, a few brownies and newspapers, a table to sit at. Very civilised. Un cafe come se fossimo in Italia.

If you travel from Penrith Station, don't buy coffee on the train, buy it from Mike at the Casbah Coffee Van outside the station. Great coffee. Greta chat. Occasionally silly hat!

Had to get the train from Penrith and had a coffee from the red van outside.The van was quirky and had some great jazz music playing which brings a smile to your face. If you have time, talk to Mike, the owner. He will tell you about the locally sourced coffee and the locally sourced delicious selection of tray bakes. He obviously loves coffee and you almost taste the care he has for it. Sells coffee roasted by Rinaldo Columbi from Kendal. Also sells the coffee made with soya milk and lactose free milk so don't be shy about explainig your dietary requirements. You wouldn't believe that you could get such brilliant coffee from a little van.

I saw the coffee machine first ,immaculately clean ,I chatted whilst I waited for train he told me all about the local product he sells.Very proud of his van and he knows his coffee products. He even has music on his little van,I was able to sit down in the sunshine and drink first class coffee. Well done Mike he spoke to me about his twitter as well.
