Can only describe Charlie,s as excellent,the food was delicious on a cold and wet day and staff so friendly and helpful.We all chose the full English served with piping hot tea and coffee and have to say the sausages were top notch and the prices very reasonable. Could,nt understand some of the negative comments about the staff as we could not fault them in anyway. To the staff thank you for the tasty lunch and pleasant service.Top marks for Charlie,s

Great service perfect menu for breakfast - ideal for our family aged 67 30 and 8 as it had appealing food for the different age groups! BIG portions ! Well worth the money.

We went to this little cafe last week to try English breakfast. The menu was easy to order for us. So, I went for the £8 breakfast. It was a feast ! The staff were friendly too. We will be back next time we visit.

After trying other cafes nearby in Windermere village and being disappointed with poor service and mediocre food and drinks especially in two of the busier cafes which I tried as they were looking busy so I presumed they must be good I really had no idea where to go and today I decided to try Charlies cafe as I had passed it many times and never been in before so checked trip advisor and thought they can't be worse than the others I've been to in the village. So I went there with my mate today I must say it is absolutely spot on, really good food and a cracking latte, I didn't know what to expect after reading a few negative reviews and now after experiencing Charlies myself I'm puzzled and have no idea where some of the moaning reviewers have been to I'm sure its not Charlies cafe My experience there today was good , very good the staff are really friendly and helpful and coupled with delicious food it's a must try if you are in Windermere. To sum up pass the other nearby cafes by and go straight to Charlies cafe . I'm sure you will enjoy it as much as I did, my Bacon and sausage toasted bun was superb , cooked nicely and brought out to the table quickly, this was Just what was needed to set me up for the day, Thanks Charlies I will be certainly be back !!!

Looking back at other negative reviews, we certainly experienced similar issues. Lack of understanding and customer care etc … we are paying for a service here , if we want mushroom on our toasties then please be a little more accommodating… not ‘if the chef agrees’ hahha it was almost like a sketch show than an eatery.

The first downfall was the lack of understanding of their own menu. Upon enquiring about sandwiches and optional fillings we were told that they were unable to offer us a sandwich with any salad in it. A member of our party was forced to order a toastie instead, much to our confusion the toastie arrived with salad on the side and as much as I understand a set menu with minimal flexibility the poor quality of the food did not warrant not being able to serve a sandwich (just don’t toast the bread) and filling with some salad (use the side salad somehow provided). Secondly, the service wasn’t as welcoming or warm once the sandwich debacle ensued. The rest of the ordering process felt rushed and uninviting. Once the food arrived, the waitress presented a burger without knowing whether it was a cheeseburger or a plain beef burger and the plate was just given slapdash to the wrong person. The quality was the poorest we have seen for the price it was. The food provided was frozen and processed, presented in a manner that resembled a car crash. If in Windermere for a lunch, visit somewhere else.

Looking for a simple and quick lunch on a wet day in Windermere. Stumbled across this place. Toasties and teas did a great job of warming us up and refuelling us for the afternoon. Service was fast and friendly, and the sausage, cheese and onion toasted sandwiches were delicious!

Not the best. I ordered the special, avocado and prawns on a crumpet. It was stone cold. I mean just out of the fridge cold. Nevertheless I ploughed on. Big mistake. By the time I got to the middle it was actually frozen. I sent it back. Waitress came to see me with no apology but the assertion that as I had eaten half she would only discount half. Friend’s scrambled egg came on white toast when she’d asked for brown. Eventually a round of brown came out. It was not toasted. Other friend’s streaky bacon had hardly seen a grill too. Awful

Fantastic experience today when we found a quite little just of the main drag cafe for Breakfast. Wonderful warm welcome and a simple but good menu. Offering the usual breakfast choices and a vegetarian option. 2 lovely Sausages, a hash brown, 2 x Fried eggs, beans (a tomato (I didnt want one)), and a round of seeded bread toast. Good choice of drinks lovely surroundings and very thoughtful.

Vi las buenas críticas en Tripadvisor y aunque lo probaría. Menú divertido con muy pocas opciones para el desayuno, inglés completo o vegetariano y luego algunos baps o tortillas, no es bueno si solo quieres una opción más pequeña. Las chicas jóvenes que trabajaban en las mesas, lo suficientemente agradables, ordenadas y la tetera llegaron de inmediato, la comida tardó un poco más, debido a que solo una persona en la cocina intentaba hacer todo.Salchichas y bap de huevo estaban bien, huevo cocido y salchichas sin sabor, llegó inglés completo, mismas salchichas, tocino de baja calidad y champiñones crudos que sabían que habían sido cocinados en agua, no es realmente difícil cocinar un desayuno inglés después de pasar 35 años. como chef me daría vergüenza servir lo que recibí.Sin embargo, el té era muy bueno y una olla grande para dos, no hay alternativa al azúcar que es molesto cuando eres diabético.

Walking around a very wet Windermere with my dog, I was looking for a pet-friendly cafe to buy a tea and make it last a while.The sign on the door announcing dogs were allowed was a very welcome sight, so I made a bee-line there. Staff were very friendly, invited me to sit wherever I liked and they'd be with me shortly. Decided to get a Full Breakfast and to pay for an extra sausage for my furry companion. The staff even brought a nice rug for Holly to lie on!Food was delicious, each of the 3 staff were incredibly polite and nice, and when I got the bill they hadn't even charged for my dog's sausage!Whenever I'm in Windermere in future, I'll definitely be calling in to Charlie's.Thanks very much guys :)

La mujer que nos servía y preparaba bebidas estaba hablando en voz muy alta y con un comportamiento poco profesional, como cantar canciones de radio, cuando intentamos disfrutar de un desayuno al llegar a Windermere. Sin modales, nunca me preguntaron si todo estaba bien. La comida (desayuno pequeño) era de mala calidad, beens acuosos, ingredientes baratos: el ketchup Aldi y las copas de dentista para el tipo de agua lo decía todo, el café no era bueno. En general, solo una decepción demasiado cara, un servicio al cliente inexistente. . ¡Evitar!

Todo estaba muy limpio y nada era demasiado problema. ¡Incluso a nuestro perro le dieron galletas! Excelente relación calidad-precio también. También en el menú había sopa del día, papas fritas y toasties con una buena selección de rellenos y comidas como pescado, papas fritas y platos de pasta. Muy recomendable.

The staff really made are visit happy they all had smiling faces and extremly polite ,We ordered tea for two and a full English breakfast , The tea was Yorkshire tea full of flavour the toast was still warm when brought to the table the plates warm and the breakfast cooked to perfection . I loved the welcoming atmosphere ,There must have been 40 persons enjoying breakfast ,i had a chat to a Japenese couple who absolutely loved the meal and left a very generous and well deserved tip, I left with a smile on my face , I honestly can recommend the cafe excellent

Bad weather and a quick look on Trip Advisor made us choose this place .It’s a cafe but the menu is extremely basic, friendly waitress ,really nice. Ordered a latte and pop for the kids ,sausage beans and egg for my 9 year old boy (no children’s menu ),which was small but ok for my boy. Toasted sandwiches with chips for the rest of us. Found my meal tasty but a bit mean with the chips . Bit overpriced for what you got !!Was also near the kitchen which is more or less next to the seating and found they were very loud with getting the orders ready -could hear everything they were saying which I found off putting . Tasty but lacking that spark ,wished I went to Greggs,which would have been half the price and filling!!

Windermere has a wealth of eateries & places to go and relax with a cuppa. Windermere town itself seemed to have a dearth of coffee shops which when you're hankering for a warm brew is frustrating. That said this was the first place we came across and, gasping for a coffee, we went inside the pleasant-looking shopfront. The overwhelming aroma of fried foods left our nostrils glazed with a greasy sheen, the menus equally slippery with cooking oils. Reviewing the items on the menu we were aghast at how pricey the various breakfast and lunch options were (nary a salad in sight), especially compared to prices back home in the south where most things are extortionate by default. Considering the venue's low-rent values it was a contrast to the high-priced food we decided against ordering, settling for a run-of-the-mill coffee each. Nothing desperately bad here, but considering the setting and what you would expect from a traditional greasy spoon we weren't enamoured either. Great if you like your fried breakfast at a premium.

Went here for lunch on our day out at windermere. The space looked cosy but a little too tightly packed with more tables. The staff were courteous but the guy taking our order was not very helpful though. Asked him what the burger comes with as sides, he said it comes with whatever is written in the menu, which was nothing. ordered the burger and was extremely disappointed. We got just the burger, asked for cheese but there was no cheese in it and the meat was still pink inside. The coffee was very thin and was not strong enough, at least for my taste. Price wise would have expected a bit more quality and quantity for what we ended up paying.

I loved this establishment as it is smart, unpretentious & serves a good range of decent food at very reasonable prices.

Our little party of five happened upon this café and what a surprise ! A really friendly welcome, good food at a good price and an adequate menu to suit us - five people, three different choices. We would recommend this café without hesitation and would gladly go back if the opportunity occurred.

On a cold wet day in Windermere we stumbled on this little cafe! When all the the others we passed had no room for five of us the staff here went out of there way moving furniture to allow us space to eat together. Though not the largest menu I have come across there was ample choice for lunch and what we ordered was not only delivered quickly but tasted great. I can reccomend the Angus burger!

We visited on a very cold day so the lovely warm atmosphere was greatly appreciated. We both ate sandwiches which were a good size. The star of the visit though had to be the hot chocolate. It was literally like eating a bar of melted galaxy! Warmed me through but I had to share it as it was far too big for 1 person. I would go back for the hot chocolate without hesitation! It's a must!!

Warm Welcome from staff and lovely seating area. Chatty and quick to take our order and food was was our Super Quick!!!The food was great and wasn't covered in grease like some places. Seemed a bit cold with a small halogen heater that didn't seem to do much. (Even when sitting next to it)Clean and Tidy too. Will be coming back here again.

Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. Comfortable but the most boring naff caff type menu. They used to have a really good lunch menu here a couple of years ago. Maybe changed hands? OK if all you want is a bacon bun, but you can get one cheaper at Greggs. I hope they get a decent lunch menu as theyd be onto a good thing!

Terrible customer service! The young girl at the till clearly did not want to be there. She was huffing and puffing at customers! Yes, it was very busy as yesterday, 15th October was a beautiful autumn day but I would think they would be glad of end of season trade! I could not sit down because they were so busy so opted to ask for take away coffee and cake, only to be told by her 'I'm not doing take away'. Really? The local co-op is closed for a refurbishment and they really could capitalise on that if they employed more capable, less miserable staff! Shocking!! Won't return!

Called here for a takeaway lunch, used them several times before. Service was disappointing to say the least. Not a please or thankyou from the ladies working in the shop - even when I pointed out they'd only charged me for 1 flat white! Previous reviews also highlight the fact that the staff are miserable, they respond but do nothing to address the concerns raised. Also, I would've thought that as u was the only customer in the shop on a very wet day would have been positive for them - obviously not! Not sure I'll return here.

Visited here with my Dad today. Asked for a tea cake and then a scone both not on the menu anymore. I had a bagel with salmon and cream cheese paid over £8 and that was it no sides, no even a bit of salad - didn’t taste great. Dad ordered pancakes in the end 2 tiny pancakes on a dish - still hungry when we left. Not great service either. Disappointed!

Stopped to have a tea, latte and a slice of carrot cake. Great service and a huge slice of cake that we shared. Great value for money.

Called in for a coffee and snack after our frequent walk along the bay and round back into Arnside. When this first opened I was a little wary as we are used to small intimate tea/coffee shops in Arnside. However this was our second visit and as we entered we were greeted by obviously the front of house guy “David”. Wow does this guy know how to do it Welcoming ,friendly, Northern (always a bonus). Had a lovely coffee and Hubby had a great crisp bacon bun. The vibe in this cafe/restaurant is great., modern but great service. We live quite locally and are encouraged to go in the evening now as well. In our opinion the best restaurants are always about the front of house and Crossfields has it right. Everyone in this place has a great view of our beautiful Morecambe bay.
