Country Kitchen cafe in Carlisle

What a wonderful little place, had the full English breakfast and it was fantastic, all cooked to perfection and served super quick, will definitely be back again.

Lovely cosy café that served an excellent full english ! Also very good value for money.

Lovely place with friendly staff,nice garden area at the back and the food was spot on,very good portions at a reasonable price

Nice cakes but not a huge range. Great atmosphere but limited indoor seating.

Great food friendly helpfull staff . Great with kids and pets garden at the rear, brilliant

This is a very small ,but pleasant space in what is basically a room in a terrace house located in the centre of a very pleasant village. If is delightfully different. The meals are delicious in my opinion and the service friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is very relaxed and informal. The prices are competitive and reasonable. We tend to book a table as capacity is limited, but is not a requirement. It is not elegant, it is as the name suggests just like being in someone’s house and that is part of its charm. The total experience is consistent and I always enjoy my visits.

Stopped off here for coffee and cake while on a walk and it was really good, lovely hot drinks and a good choice of cakes

Enjoyed our lunch very pleasant staff Thank you🥰

Breakfast was too greasy and the sausages would be lucky if they were 50% pork. I felt let down as the reviews were good online. On a plus note coffee was good!

Very nice food in cozy surroundings with lovely friendly staff. Would recommend and will be back. Thank you.

Great little cafe. Would highly recommend. Great food at Great prices.

Lovely little cafe. Small and cozy. Parking available outside. On entering you recieve a warm welcome. Great selection of foods available at reasonable prices. We had the full breakfast for £7.50. Wow, what a plate full and as a bonus it includes a hot beverage and toast. Lovely atmosphere as everyone involved in any conversations when spoken to. BIG BONUS..... it's dog friendly Definitely worth a visit ☺️☺️

Fabulous cafe, just love going

We stop here for post ride refreshments almost every week. Hot rolls are well filled and really nice. Lovely quiet courtyard at the back. Definitely recommend.

Family owned and run, a great welcome always. Great food amazing portions at a very reasonable price 😁. Can't recommend highly enough. Looking forward to our return 😄⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It was a pleasant and cosy place for light food, brunch and lunches. It is also dog friendly with indoor and outdoor sitting at the rear. The garden had beautiful flowers and created a calm environment. Food was good with plenty of options. Inside got a little too warm at one point, eventually they opened the door. It did get busy at peak lunch hour. Location is great, right on the main street in Dalston.

Stopped here for a quick coffee and bite to eat. Very nice sitting in the garden while the sun was out. Service excellent. Reasonable price. Will call again.

I had the most scrumptious dinner at the Country Kitchen Cafe! My mother and I, who are both Americans, went to Cumbria in the UK to visit my sister, who is also an American but lives there now. She and her British husband took us to the Country Kitchen in Dalston, where we had the most divine chicken, roast potatoes, veggies, my very first Yorkshire pudding, and lovely scones with clotted cream and jam. I will never be able to eat an American scone again. Joyce's daughter, Wendy, served us. She did an amazing job! Everything is prepared and cooked right there. She was incredibly accommodating when it came to individual preferences and dietary needs. It was utterly delightful and I hope to come back some day and visit again!

Lovely little cafe. Plenty of choice. Plan to return to sample more of the menu. Very welcoming. Thank you.

Excellent little cafe Plenty to choose from off the menu

It's a great little spot for a coffee and bacon roll or something more, whilst offering a great atmosphere. I've been twice in the last two weeks, and each time, the food and service have been spot on. Would highly recommend 👍

Great food and service, spot on as usual 🤗👍

Excellent, great food with great staff, the back courtyard is a cracking sun trap, definitely 5 stars from me, just off chance if you Don't know where it is located, Dalston, Cumbria, not far from Carlisle

What a fantastic wee café! Simple menu, pleasant service and amazing value. We both had the all day breakfast and left stuffed and very happy. Absolutely delightful.

Friendly, good value with copious amounts of tea in a proper tea cup.

A lovely family run café. Great food and good local banter. Joyce is a joy and her eating place excellent. Shame she doesn't open in the evening..

What a wonderful cafe food is brilliant great atmosphere me and my partner loved it we will be back if we are in the area again

Delicious food, reasonable prices, superb service. All you could ask for. The staff in addition to being very attentive to our needs were also friendly and chatted with us. The place is small but very quaint and homely. We had the Sunday lunch and the meat was tender, plenty of food, everything delicious, including the puddings. I asked what the veg was and she said she brings out a separate plate with a selection of 4 different veg. My husband mentioned he only eats carrots and peas, and so she brought out the plate of 4 veg for me, but his plate was heaped with carrots and peas! I can't praise this place enough. Definitely stop by if you're in the area.

Lovely little place packed with atmosphere and my lunch was perfect

A wonderful little gem. You are greeted with a warm welcome and made to feel really comfortable. The meals are absolutely delicious and value for money. The staff are friendly, polite and very helpful. If you want to buy something to eat later then you can, nothing is to much trouble. I will most definetly go back again.

Lovely little cafe, I love how it's been furnished I love to go in the morning for a toasted currant tea cake with jam and a latte. The lady owner is lovely, friendly and very welcoming and they even sell little gifts. I love to visit

Excellent service food homemade and delicious. Friendly staff.
