Chester Lakes Cafe in Cheshire West and Chester

Just had coffee, tea and an egg bap. They were nice.

Excellent food and great staff ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very good service and just the best sausage bap. Good hearty food, which after three hours on our bicycle is what we wanted.

Mark Burrows enjoyed a succulent Club Sanwich style BLT, whilst cycling with the Wirral Cycling Group, on a 🌞 sunny shortest day of the year.

Cycle group called in for lunch. Delicious food, quickly cooked and with friendly and efficient service. All for a great price. Whats not to like?

Just been to chester lakes cafe for my breakfast it was lovely

Lovely place to visit fishing is good got some nice size carp in the lakes loads of ponds to choose from well worth a visit

Did a truck show there wow it was so peaceful. Sat overlooking the lakes having breakfast 😋 loved it.

Nice camp site bar, cafe, Rock music bingo, showers, lakes.

Went to the Pulp Disco event and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves

Went to this café today and ordered two slices of toast and coffee. I asked how much the man behind the counter said £3.60 please. I gave him the money and he said do I want the coffee now. I said Yes! I found a table and began drinking my coffee. It was only instant coffee which I thought was a bit expensive for what I was charged. I waited for my toast and waited and waited. Twenty minutes later my toast arrived. It was nice toast mind but it shouldn't have taken that long to toast and butter considering there were no other customers there. The café is in a beautiful setting with lakes all around but I'm sorry I will not be visiting again. Too high prices and slow service!

The food was pleasant enough but pricey. The service was very slow, over an hour for 3 burgers (we were the only customers in) as the single member of staff was too busy doing take out food. The cafe is also very cold.

breakfast looks much better than it tastes

We had a full English breakfast eaten in the cafe and a takeaway burger chips and pizza in the evening........Great service and great food.

The burgers and there pancake are amazin cant wait for next time were there c u soon

We often visit, with our grandchildren, and have a wonderful walk around, dropping off at the café/bar, with a small play area for the children

Very friendly service, very friendly atmosphere

Great campsite, greaf facilties with a cool little cafe and marquee bar area. There's also playpark for the kiddies right outside so you can keep your eye on them! Menu choices are great and not bad pricewise, with the added bonus of ace customer service!!!

Food good but prices are a bit high

Went here for breakfast with a few friends, booked in advance and gave our arrival time, food is currently served in a large marquee tent. Although it was not busy service was extremely slow, when ordering we were not given a ticket number, when my expensive full breakfast arrived, there was no sausage or mushrooms and it was cold, no body on my table received what they ordered, as we had to leave due to time constraints I did not complain at the time, I certainly will not be visiting again and my friends have said the same. Rubbish service, cold food and not what we ordered and on top of that; expensive!

Lovely beautiful lakes but was charged an extortionate amount for 2 scoops of icecream... £4.60!

Had a brilliant time with are grandchildren. Definitely worth going. X

Very friendly staff and great food

Love the chester Lake we go about 6 - 10 times a year. Will be going back hopefully end of October, in the pods, 1st time so really looking forward to it.

Friendly staff fair prices food good also

Very good nice place nice food good facilities and clean

Great place for camping and rallies can't wait for the Growler rally

Classic car and bike meet, third Sunday in the month. Great vibe!

Had 3 nights fishing and really enjoyed it. Coping well with the present difficulties. Staff were very good

sad day today rest in peace lee brooker

Lovely food, friendly staff, very clean couldn't fault anything

Good food, very friendly staff.

Very clean food beautiful cooked staff made you feel welcome .

top service from top people! burgers delivered straight to my fishing peg what more could you ask for!! nice portions aswell would definately reccomend a visit!!

Chester Lakes is a lovely place. We visited on a dull dreary day but it was still beautiful. The cafe is very good. Very warm and the girl serving was very friendly. Only one gripe though. The toast could be made with thick bread and more beans on the beans on toast. Bacon toasties are nice.

Beautiful place, but quite expensive

Great venue and excellent staff.

A good old proper cafe serving good food. What more can you say. Ideal for the location! oh and v friendly staff.

Food served in takeaway boxes even when eating in. The oven chips could have done with a bit longer in the oven to defrost them fully

Being servied for the hut side, staff was very slow and a brew was £1.50

Wet day pleasant company lots of food. Lots of lakes... lots of people fishing...

Lovely place, cafe staff very friendly, food is really plentiful and reasonably priced

Lovely breakfast cooked to order nice friendly staff Great little place would certainly recommend if your visiting

Recently had 4 separate camping trips here, with friends and family,from 4 to roughly 20 odd people of all ages,cracking place to stay and the cafe serves top grub. There is a bar in the entertainment marquee which has excellent staff.

Top place highly recomend top staff

Having booked the table to celebrate a special wedding anniversary we arrived and were guided to our table The restaurant is in a lovely location near to the lakes and the restaurant overlooks It was disappointing that I pointed out on booking that it was a special occasion but no congratulations nothing However.we had a lovely meal the food was excellent but we felt the place lacked a bit of atmosphere was expecting a band or live music but just felt a little flat but if you are going for the food you won’t be disappointed

My friend and I had a brunch at this place when staying on the lovely Chester lakes campsite. The cafe was very hot so we sat in the marquee and our food was nice and the staff were pleasant. Price was reasonable.

The breakfast was good a bit of a wait you need to go early loads of tables in the cafe no problem getting a seat

Cracking food, excellent service, friendly staff, good value. I will leave my cooking equipment at home & eat here next time we come camping

Fantastic place, lovely food and amazing friendly staff.

Good place to have a days fishing,brill cafe

Cant not wait til I go back again

Friendly and helpful staff. A family friendly site both for camping and fishing. The food in the cafe is excellent and a good variety of drinks in the bar. Friday and Saturday nights is great for rock and roll bingo in the marquee with a variety of different acts too.

Accessed by a long gravelly road to what can only be described as a downtrodden holiday camp scene complete with unappealing cafe that serves barely edible food that takes an age to prepare despite an excess of staff and lack of customers this is not a place to eat.

Very good breakfast and clean banks could do with permanent pegs platforms

Brief visit while cycling. Good service. Nice snacks.

Fisherman's breakfast was decent for 7 quid, nice staff and service :)

Great place. We really enjoyed it. Friendly staff and a cracking breakfast in the cafe this morning.

Good prices, stopped off during a bike ride. Friendly welcome 😊

Very good between fishing brakes.

Excellent afternoon of music and talent

Not silver service but spot on nice big breakfast for affordable price... fishermans breakfast is better value for money compared to standard breakfast. If one downfall would be price of coffee

our first time camping as a family and it was awesome. great cafe, bar and entertainment. loads of go on to pitch. toilets at the time were a bit rough and ready but we weren't there for glamping lol x

Great campsite with different areas to camp

Really good fantastic staff lots of things to do

Great staff very helpful and friendly, good food, kid and angler friendly.

Lovely food and very friendly staff

Nice friendly atmosphere. Food nice for cafe food. Outside area to eat by the lake. Lovely views.

Brilliant place for fishing and camping

Food is always top quality and a t a great price, nice friendly staff, everything you need!!

Great Place the Fishermans breakfast and worth a munch!!!!

Really nice chips and gravy! And cheap too!!! The lady who was serving was so nice to my son who helped him carry the food back to our tent. I think her name was Hayley? All the staff were lovely!! Highly recommended

Great food and good quality service at reasonable price's, superb location.

Small choice but well made food. Clean and tidy. First visit just to drop someone off but nice lunch.

Really good food, nice people and good price.

Up to now my bud its have been excellent but the restaurant has closed until further notice without any consideration for people who had booked a table in advance. Very unprofessional to do so at such short notice . We were booked in with a party of friends fora meal last night which was cancelled by a curt e mail giving no reasons of credability . Also we have been informed that the front of house man James has been let go. What a disastrous mistake that will prove to be, he was amazing, courteous and professional, in fact he made that restaurant. Will not be returning to review this place when and if indeed it gets off the floor again. Totally disgusted with the management.

Just happened to go past a few weeks ago and we decided to give this place a try. To be honest we were all pleasantly surprised by how tasty all our food was. All freshly cooked and the flavours were top notch. The best sauce I have had with muscles and I would definitely have that again. The staff were very attentive and the place is very tastefully done. Thanks for a great night.

The lady who runs the cafe was very welcoming and the food was amazing she does the best chip's and curry sauce. We ate here every day while we camped at Chester lakes, portions are very generous the cafe is nice and clean. Can't wait to go back. ☺

My friend took me here for lunch as a birthday present. It was certainly a lovely experience due to the unique setting, delicious food and excellent, friendly service. As it was a hot, sunny July day, it was the perfect place to spend a few hours relaxing in the sunshine, taking a peaceful walk around the lakes and enjoying the red onion and cherry tomato tarte with tasty salad, washed down with a cool prosecco. We could have eaten on the terrace outside, or in the quirky little beach huts (great for shade or more privacy) but we decided to have our main course inside. Gorgeous interior design and, I imagine, a very cosy place during colder months. Overall, this is a welcome addition to Chester eating venues, partly due to it's quiet and picturesque location, but also because of the super service and good food. Thank you and you'll see us again!

don't eat at this place. It looks far from clean. The food is awful. People behing the counter arr more interested in the locals attending the place.

Very enjoyable location, just outside city, for drinks outside in the sun for a family reunion. Unfortunately decided too late to stay on to eat but the staff, menu and decor were all very appealing. The very snuggly blankets were welcomed as it became chillier but we couldnt have had a warmer reception at this very peaceful oasis.

Popped in for breakfast after our stay in BBQ pod. For £15 we had a breakfast and 2 bacon and egg baps. Coffee,tea and a can of pop. Pretty reasonable and cooked just right. They do slushes,ice cream n dinner menu too. Friendly staff.

Hemos acampamos muchas veces en Lagos Chester y ver las muchas mejoras que han realizado para crear un gran lugar incluso mejor. Me tome mis 4 hijos y cada uno de ellos disfrute de la pesca. Fuimos este fin de semana para descubrir que el lugar está bajo nueva dirección y se puede ver que de nuevo ha sido un montón de trabajo hecho durante el invierno, pero la cosa me di cuenta de que ESTOY COMPLETAMENTE en desacuerdo con la de los perros es que permite en el sitio! ! Siempre tenía condiciones Chester lagos no perros y por una buena razón. Es inevitable que siempre habrá unos que estropea el resto, y son incapaces de recoger sus desechos perros y este es lo que fue visto en mi estancia. Yo personalmente visto 3 montones de heces de perro y como tengo niños pequeños, es sólo una cuestión de tiempo antes de que uno de los pasos, o peor aún, cataratas. Chester lagos bajo una nueva administración han permitido perros para visitar durante el día, pero no se les permite pasar la noche! ! Creo que este es un mover la gestión excepcionalmente malo y no me puede ver lagos volver a Chester ya que sólo puede ver el problema de residuos Va a peor. También con niños pequeños, un riesgo de seguridad. Con las noticias informes sobre perros mauling hijos pequeños, ahora será un poco incómodo en lo que concernía a mis hijos andan. Solucionar este Lagos chester!

Lovely place to eat very clean and very friendly people really cheap aswell

Lovly food ...chilli was amazing .... absolutely lovly friendly down to earth staff !! Great little cafe ! Thumbs up from us guys 👍

Fui ayer para el desayuno de cumpleaños del esposo, y no me decepcionó. La cafetería está situada a la lagos lejos derecha del restaurante, que ganso se abre más tarde para el almuerzo y la cena. Si quieres un desayuno recién preparado, que es precioso y grueso con tocino sirve buena y caliente, luego el Café Lagos es el lugar para ti. Recarga gratis de café era bienvenida. Debe volver otro día a probar una de las Tartas en la pantalla.

Went last year with father in law and my son, we went mostly for the Carp fishing not the campsite in general, anyway, person I spoke to at reception was very pleasant and helpful, put car next to lake only to be 'told off' by bailiff and told to move car, not a problem, moved car 15ft to car park, unloaded Touareg and set up, 1 hr later ford focus drives past my pitch all the way around the lake to unload and car stayed there overnight & entire time I was there, people to the rear of us had a HUGE open fire with loud conversation till 4am while the 3 families on the other side of the lake had loud music till 3am and shouting at each other, and the worst part of all was the fish care, I did not see a single person with a landing mat for the fish !, when I offered up our fishing licenses to the bailiff he just laughed and said he didn't need to see them, this is a great place but HORRENDOUSLY run !, As a fisherman and a camper this is the worst site I have ever been too, I even reported to environment agency it was that bad for rods left alone, kids with supervision at all I must have unhooked at least 5 fish for kids to save the fish distress !, very badly run place !

On Wednesday 8th March 2017 my partner and his friend went fishing for the night to Chester Lakes Leisure which had been planned for month's and they where truly excited for another great night but unfortunately at 8pm he returned home unexpectedly because of the awful experience they had and that he would not be going back again after being regular anglers for nearly 2 years. At arriving at the complex at around 7am and deciding where to fish they picked a spot to pitch which was the furthest away from the restaurant and started to unload the car, they where approached by a man who we think is called Charlie who stated to them that they couldn't drive on the grass unless they where loading or unloading and that they had to park the car around 400 yards away in a secluded area by the toilets which was completely out of sight. Charlie then went on to say that they where not allowed in the restaurant unless they where wearing very smart clothing and that the café was not open apart from on weekends, when they asked where the nearest place for them to get food/drink was they where told there was a shop around 2 miles away off the complex. At about 6pm after fishing all day uninterrupted they started a small fire in a disposable bbq tray which was on top of bricks on the path so they didn't damage the grass which we've done every time we have visited and stayed the night. A bailiff on a quad came towards them at a ridiculous speed from the restaurant, he then pulled up to tell them in an aggressive manner that they weren't allowed the fire and that it needed to be put out immediately so other people don't copy although they where the only people fishing there; they agreed to extinguish the fire and he then left. Around 5 minutes later the same man then came speeding back over with a bucket and proceeded to swill the fire with water out of the lake which didn't just put the fire out it also soaked a lot of there gear and made the entire area boggy and then drove away with no explanation. My partner Lee and his friend then decided that they were not going to stay the night, lee at this point went to go and get his car to use the headlights to pack up. After around 15 minutes of packing up a black car drove down from the restaurant with the bailiff and what turned out to be the owner in it. They approached them to tell them that they could not drive on the grass under any circumstances, Lee replied to say that they were not staying the night and asked if there was any chance of a refund as to stay the night it is double the price of a day's fishing which the owner replied in a disgusting attitude 'No, as we do not refund vandal's!', because of driving on the grass and lighting a fire although the bailiff had been driving around on a quad for the last 5 hours. The owner then asked if they where definitely leaving, Lee answered him saying yes to which he replied saying 'Good!' and walked away. Lee and his friend then left the complex. I myself am going to make sure that I inform all of our family and friends never to visit and that they tell others never to visit also. The way that my partner and his friend where treated is absolutely disgusting and more than out of order! Not only where they treated bad but they where spoken to in a way which is down right disrespectful and ill-mannered. Never mind should you not run a company or business with a bad attitude problem but especially if you treat your customers like dog crap on the bottom of your shoe. Unfortunately the Facebook page for Chester Lakes Leisure doesn't let you leave reviews but I will figure out a way to make people aware of this horrible event and nasty stupid owner! The way that not only the staff are but the owner as well, this business is not going to last 5 bloody minutes!

Lovely campsite. Staff very friendly and the facilities are good

En el sitio donde el café era, ahora está un nuevo restaurante. El Ganso, y su. . . . Fantástico! El equipo de personal (y realmente es un equipo), trabaja duro para hacer que la experiencia de cena muy feliz. El menú es una nueva interpretación de la británica tradicional con experimentos nuevos y deliciosos, que trabajo como entrante platos pequeños o en combinaciones para hacer un plato principal, una opción principal comida y pudines delicias. Una chimenea abierta con cómodas sillas y un gran comedor. Durante el verano hay "cabañas de la playa "mirando los lagos. Fue una noche de invierno frío cuando fuimos, pero fácil aparcamiento cerca de la puerta principal, bar abierto y un ambiente relajado pero rápido y eficiente servicio hizo una noche muy agradable.

Lovely new place, but very limited menu

Stayed Feb 17. Rather over-priced to be honest. Most of the loo facilities out of action. Fair amount of road noise. Flat gravel area to park the caravan on and friendly welcome. Cafe facilities not open in off season.

Great rices, huge site and lively entertainment. We will definitely stay again.

It's OK when there is no other place to go.

No good for caravaning don't waste your money

24 hours on the specimen lake, great facilities. Staff were great, couldn't be any more helpful and polite. One of the cleanest fisheries I have ever been on not a single rat in site!! Will definitely be returning

went fishing with my little boy there was loads of rats not happy at all will not be going back there again

well over priced facilities shite

Not sure what's happened here, but I hope it's put right soon.This used to be a nice place to go for breakfast/brunch. Sausage sandwich and a brew, that sort of thing. Small, friendly, and nice to sit outside by the lakes in the warm weather.Daughter and I cycled there for a Sunday brunch the other week, and left with empty stomachs. The old cafe has gone, and seems to have relocated into a big marquee. When we arrived late in the morning, it was deserted in there. Finally managed to find d a barely-interested waitress, who informed me that breakfast had finished. Odd - I'm sure they used to serve all day. She said that the only option was the 'chip van' outside. No thanks - we wanted brunch, not a bag of chips.Also the emphasis now seems to have shifted from fishing lakes, with a cafe and some camping facilities, to a full-on Pontins-type camp site. It was heaving with people, there's a stage for 'entertainment' at one end of the marquee, and we nearly got knocked off our bikes twice by idiots wheel-spinning up and down the carpark.Sad to see a nice place go downhill. Hope they manage to get the nice atmosphere and good back some day. Until then, I'll go elsewhere.
