Devil's Bridge Snacks in South Lakeland

We all really enjoyed tasty burgers and good coffee.Lovely views of the river Lune and scenic walks.Definitely recommend.

We parked near Devils bridge to walk into Kirkby Lonsdale, the aroma of bacon was delicious, we couldn't resist a bacon bun and a mug of tea whilst taking in the lovely surroundings . We will be frequent visitors to this buttie van.

Perfect place to stop on your travels for a bite to eat. Definitely the best sausage I have ever had and love that it says where your local food comes from. We had the pleasure of meeting 3 generations and happy to support family businesses.

One word…… Amazing Fresh produce, cooked to order, to a high standard, which tastes fantastically delicious and with scenic views.

loads of bikes at weekends , if warm good swimming spot and van do good food .good roads nearby but watch for speed cams .

We bought a BLT and a double burger from the van at devils bridge. Very tasty with lots of bacon and salad. Good value for money . Nice friendly staff

Sampled a sausage/egg bap/batch ... AGHHHH !... the supposed sausage was disgusting, tasteless and like cardboard. The guy serving looked like he'd lost a tenner and found 10p, miserable, smileless that made us feel unwelcome. We only went because I had read the reviews of lt online. Would not go back there if it was free.

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve visited this place on my bike. Every time I visit for a brew, the guy serving always seems a little abrupt. After today’s visit, having experienced zero manners at all, I’ve decided I won’t be parting with my cash anymore. It’s a real shame, because the food is OK and they make a nice brew. Perhaps they’ve just got complacent over the years? Who knows?

After 3 days in a award winning Cornish Hotel, gourmet dining every night on a £75 per person menu plus drinks at £8 a shot, it was good to get back to Devils Bridge Snacks after a two year absence due to Covid. Double Burger, cheese, onion, potato cake brown sauce, a mug of mashed tea and a slice of fruit cake for £9. Every bit as good as the pretentious 8 course meals I was eating in Cornwall, at a tenth of the cost! All top quality products as well! My only criticism is that no one was there to push my chair in and unfold a napkin on my lap!

Ive been coming to this snack van for a great breakfast for over 15 years. Its my favourite stop on my way to the lakes for a climb on a sunday and i'd consider myself a semi regular. However, for some unknown reason, the menu has now been halved until after 11, meaning I can no longer order my usual double cheeseburger with onions on my way up to the lakes as it would be too late. I thought this was just a change for lockdown but it looks like its permanent. Im heartbroken at this change and unfortunately i've had to change which van i now visit which is a huge disappointment. Please revert these changes!!!!!

My order is always the same: Bacon, egg, sausage, cheese and mayo - I know not exactly everyone's taste, but they make it for me without batting an eye. Absolute perfection, friendly family run, delicious, fast, and all with an incredible view of the river Lune. They are bringing back the Christmas Butty too, not to be missed while it is on. If you are in Kirkby Lonsdale, it is an absolute must

You made my husband and I very happy with your thoughtfulness great quality bacon , out standing lemon cake and when I say outstanding I MEAN OUTSTANDING your friendly welcome and kindness thank you for being part of our honeymoon we will always remember it

This snack bar is in a beautiful location on Devils Bridge in Kirkby Lonsdale. For years, bikers have used this as a meeting place for a chat and bite to eat. We passed it on Sunday and it was packed out to the rafters. The next day we easily got a parking place and sampled a bacon and a sausage buttie - very nice too. A tad expensive but we didn’t mind just for the experience of eating from the famous shack.

Love here and made a special effort to come off the motorway for a brew on the way back from North Lakes. Not quite the same out of a paper cup, but I'm assuming that's due to the situation. Hope the mugs will be back! Worth a stop to check out the River Lune and the bridges, lovely walk along the river too if you have time and picnic tables out in the field.

A good mug of tea or coffee with other drinks if required. Great breakfast buns Good service at a fab spot. Love it!!

This snack van has really upped it's game! Been stopping here over the last couple of years and the food gets better - the bacon & sausages are really good quality, as is the bread butties. They now also do tomatoes which they didn't before. Definitely not just for bikers, a good little stop off point. Great mugs of tea too

If the weather is fine this is the best venue in town, right next to Devils Bridge. the bacon butties are 'old school' delicious and the brews served in mugs. this place gets really busy, but it's worth it.

Superb views up and down the river. Popular stopping off point for motorcyclists in particular on the death run between here and Hawes. Just spend some time watching the other idiots trying to kill themselves by jumoing and diving onto the rocks in the river below this aptly named bridge.

Totally reliable simple, quality sandwiches, snacks etc. Sausage, bacon buns are very good Can’t go wrong here

The staff on the van were most helpful and tried to assuage my curiosity over the name of the bridge. The food was fresh and reasonably priced

Been coming here on my motorbikes for donkeys years, never fails to satisfy. My strong black is always just as I like it and cheap too. Sausage sarnie and brown sauce on a crisp spring morning, brilliant. Long may it continue

Every time we've visited it's been superb. Top quality and unbeatable value. You'll have to try really hard to beat their bacon and sausage butty with a piping hot mug of tea. A must.

Watch either adventure sports in the river or bikes in the carpark with a coffee and amazing hot sandwiches. A must

Second visit on my bike. Excellent first and second time. Just what I needed. Plenty of bikes to look at and admire

Devil's Bridge Snacks is a must for anyone loving their bacon butties. This is a fabulous location where bacon butties have been serving for years. A favourite stop for bikers, families, couples and anyone who wishes to break up their journey for a bite to eat. The snack bar serves locally produced sausages, beef, eggs, cheese and onion potato cakes, beefburgers and vegetable burgers. A good variety of drinks - Tea, coffee, bovril and hot chocolate. There are toilets at the other end of the bridge. Car parking not too bad although weekends and summer holidays may find you struggling for a place. Well worth the wait though....

Great breakfast butties, no paper plates or plastic cups. Lovely setting by the side of the river. Parking for cars at the weekend isn't great but great for bikes!

A revisit after some time away. They still do the best bacon butties you can get (really, I've tried lots), and properly brewed tea in proper mugs. A roadside stop to treasure!

We like this place as long as the weather is decent, a decent cuppa served with your butty which is cooked fresh, if it's busy a little bit of a wait but no problems. A motor bike bolt hole, very popular. Decent service with good basic scran at a reasonable price.

Quick stop for some breakfast, think I paid £3.80 for a sausage and bacon bap which was fairly large. Seemed to be cooked fresh so there was a 5-10 minute wait, but worth it :) very nice.

We arrived at the van on a fine sunny day....but the welcome was very different......stressed man serving....which did it really

I am not a biker but this is a fabulous spot to have a mug of something hot, I prefer tea, a decent bacon or breakfast bap and have a wander around the chrome. It is a great place to stop; you can sit by the river, you can sit on the bridge, you can stand and have a chat, wherever you choose the atmosphere is awesome. My favourite roadside feeding spot.

Quite simply, to anyone who travels in this area, Devil's Bridge Snacks is an institution, and has been serving superb sandwiches and mugs of tea to crowds of bikers, as well as a few humble car drivers, since 1955.

Stopped here for a snack and ordered a cheese burger with bacon. It came with onions, was a freshly cooked with a large slice of bacon and cheese all in a large fresh soft bun.. Absolutely delicious!

When out and about with the dog always stop by for a buttie and a brew... Staff are lovely, food is always good and when the bikers are there en masse the atmosphere is fabulous

Call in here for a brew and a butty when we are out that way, great butties and big mugs of tea/coffee, great stuff even when it's raining and blowing a hoolie, try it.

One of the best burgers you could hope for from a snack bar! Nothing fussy, just a decent-sized, well-cooked and tasty burger at a sensible and fair price! What's not to like? My wife and I travel this road from Dundee to her folks in Earby, and we always make a point of being hungry enough to stop!

For a bun brimming with freshly cooked bacon and egg to get your day off to a flying start this is the place.

Friendly service, excellent large bacon butty - made with a lot of local, good quality bacon. Proper mug of well-brewed tea. £4. Great quality and value. Recommended.

Called here early morning with friends for bacon and sausage barms and coffee. We have had sandwiches from here lots...

I'd read reviews and I wasn't disappointed. My friend and I had a lovely Sunday morning walk around the area...

If you are on a motorcycle and happen to be in these parts do not miss a stop to wet your whistle here. Location is legendary bike stop and scenery from bridge stunning. Proper mugs , none of your polystyrene nonsense, and friendly welcome. Gaze at the bikes and the scenery!!

Después de un paseo en exceso de 50 millas a menudo listo para una taza de café y un butty nunca deja de satisfacer también barato para decir que el mercado, sin duda no es una estafa

Hemos estado dos veces a este muy popular butty van la primera fue justo antes de Navidad y la segunda vez hoy! Tengo que decir que la salchichas y sandwiches bacon no era tan buena como antes, aunque muy agradable la previsión para esta visita pudiera tener algo que ver con eso!

Tropezamos Puente Devils mientras estaba en viaje de negocios, nos detuvimos para almorzar temprano. Como otros han dicho, salchichas y bacon Barm mejor que me he encontrado. Unas cuantas personas haciendo cola cuando llegué allí y tienes que esperar unos minutos para su comida para ser cocinados a la orden, pero es más que vale la pena esperar.

Fantastic little stop off,lots of bacon and plenty of sausage all cooked from fresh. No queue when we arrived but then after we had ordered lots of people arrived.Drinks served in mugs if you ask and a range of sauces. Plenty and filling start to the day.Mmmmmm

Whilst on a driving business trip,called into Devils Bridge Snackbar on a dreary Saturday afternoon in late October. A few motorcyclist had braved the weather. Parked the car up and placed our orders, Double Cheese Burger and single Cheese burger. Whilst we waited had a very welcoming brew.The food is locally sourced with the Beefburgers from Dales Butchers.Well the burgers were the best I have tasted for a long time....Highly Recommended.......

A great little place to stop for the best cups of tea and bacon sandwiches/rolls. Have used it for years but recently stopped at the end of a walk and it was great.

Not much to say apart from the food is great after a few hours ride to get there. Double burger and tea for me. The satisfaction from the first bite of the roll doesn't seem to lessen after over 16 years of making the trip here. And they should be awarded something for managing to squeeze a full crew into that tiny van on a busy sunny (eh!) Sunday.

The caravan serving bacon butties at Devils Bridge has been there since the 1950s (is it still the original one? I'm not sure).Visited again on a trip to the UK and its at least 30 years, possibly almost 40 since I was last here. It remains the quintessential roadside snack place. Mugs of cheap hot tea and great sandwiches. They even offer a veggie burger now (although I didn't try it). Very popular with motorcyclists.I'm sure there are now other options between Pendle and the Lakes that didn't exist when I was a teenager heading up early on a weekend morning to go walking or climbing, but this is an original that has stayed the same. Take a break, grab a mug of tea and a butty and enjoy a slice of history

Called here after a few days in the Lakes, as it was a Sunday all the Bikers were there. We thought we would have had to wait ages for our food but it was only about 10 minutes & it was served with a smile & a mug of tea, I had a sausage Teacake, my husband had sausage & bacon. They were both delicious & the tea was good too, eaten in a lovely spot on a sunny day, its a long time since we have been there but we will return.

We visited on a sunny Sunday and it was very busy. We were told there was a 15 minute waiting time for hot food, but we were happy with this as we thought it would mean it would be freshly-cooked. It arrived within the time and the staff were pleasant. I had a bacon roll which was OK, although rather a lot of roll for the amount of bacon. My partner had a double burger with bacon and cheese. He said the burgers were so well done you could use them to slate your roof and the bacon to tile your bathroom. Why the wait? The ingredients would have been over-cooked when we ordered, let alone waiting another 15 minutes. I think we'll bring sandwiches if we visit again.

I love the butties from here and the tea. This butty shop is what make Devils bridge for me. The family who run it are very consistent , they provide a great service, rain, shine or snow. 10 out of 10 Well worth a visit , they bacon sausage and egg buns are first class and really fresh,

We have been stopping off here for decades on our way up to the Lake District. Bacon butty - mug of coffee - or what ever you fancy except jumping of the bridge! That is now forbidden. This is good food - served quickly - and convenient potty break on a long drive.

When visiting Kirkby Lonsdale it's so good to park up near the bridge and get a proper mug of tea from the snack van and stand on the bridge and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. There's always plenty of visitors to pass the time of day with too. An excellent mug of tea for a quid what more could you ask for?

A write up on a butty van..what is the world coming to..ho my word..booked a table for 4..got there and they didn't have any..ha ha..top butty van though

Great place to meet like minded bikers. Grab a fry up and a good brew. fantastic views all around and toilets.....you have to pay to pee though

We always try to visit here when we are visiting, and have always enjoyed our burger. Today we had double cheese burger with onions, the rolls were fresh and well filled, with 2 mug of tea. They have a good system organized with the food ordering, didn't have too long to wait. A great place to watch the bikers come and go and watch the river. Don't know why some people have mentioned the price is about average and the burgers are very substantial.

Excellent food decent size mugs and always friendly excellent service prices are good Plenty of parking and it's one of the main motorcycle meets on a Sunday in Lancashire

The sausage sandwiches are the best lunch in the area. The weather today made it extra special but we have been in all weather's and it's been fantastic. The motorbikes make it.

Call in here for a snack lunch when we are passing. Had a veggie burger and a sausage bap with tea and coffee served on a tray that we took to the car as it was raining. It was all good and fresh. No bikers today. Thats a shame, got chatting to one last time who thought I had been to a disco as I was wearing a sparkly top. The staff are great and the customers entertaining even the black headed gulls that wait for left overs. Don't miss the devils bridge and stroll into Kirkby Lonsdale for good retail therapy. A good reliable cafe serving sausages bacon etc that are all local. Good for special occassiond I expect if you are a biker at the weekend. Car parking restricted at the weekend for cars.

Had a very good Sausage Bap and Coffee in a proper Mug........great atmosphere with all the bikers being there........seemed to be a very popular place to eat.............very reasonably priced as well.........

This snack bar has been here years. Whenever we visit Kirkby we call for a bacon buttie at least once. Cups of coffee and tea are good too. Excellent tasting butties made in a limited space. Keep up the good work.

I actually forgot we had breakfast bap here while watching the bikers meet up.Not our usual activity but when surrounded by all this tradition you can't help but join in.Bacon, egg and sausage was devoured by us all.So glad our friends invited us to this part of the country, even thinking of buying a caravan in the area.

The food is always fresh made and good the drinks are good and hot i like the proper mugs of tea and bacon buns. The ice creams next door are also very good and pleasant service.

Tea and Coffee and other hot drinks and cold drinks A huge array of sandwiches both hot and cold and not overpriced much in line with butty vans everywhere. The amazing thing is how they all work in such a confined space. Been going here since I was a long haired 17 year old on my 250 with L plates and will continue until my last ride.

Had a drive out here on sat ,used to go years ago on the bike.They must of been having a bad day ,planned on getting 2 teas and 2 sarnies until we saw the prices! sorry but for a butty van they were well overpriced ,yes its a good location but no need to rip people off.Nearly £3 for a bacon sarnie ,with poss 50 pence of ingredients ,don't think so.We just opted for 2 teas which going off other reviews they were having a bad day ,wife threw hers and i only drunk half .Old retail saying "stack em high sell em cheap"

Had a ride to KL on my husbands bike . After an hour I was saddle sore & hungry. Stopping at Devils Bridge was the perfect spot for lunch. My bacon and egg buttie & mug of tea were the best I'd had in years!!!'I could do with one now!!

Stopped here a couple of times and had cups of tea, bacon sarnies and my wife tried the cheese and onion potato bake, we weren't disappointed. Lovely and views were amazing.

Circa 50 miles is a long way to go for tea and a bacon but it is worth it.Perhaps a lifetime of being boxed up in a hot tin can wrings all the smiles out of you,Who knows?One time a guy set up across the road from here but it was not as good. Love bikes Love bacon this is the place to be.

I regularly have the bacon sausage and egg sandwich from here, they are awesome. All of the ingredients are first class and cooked perfectly. Also the tea here is from a proper old school tea earn, people come for miles for devils bridge sandwiches. I don't blame them! Also the staff are really friendly,

Good tea and coffee, but the sandwiches are over priced. It's busy at times and you can be waiting a while for your order. There is nowhere to sit or put down your drink. Parking can also be a problem.

Did not have anything to eat, even though the smells made you want to! Had a great mug of coffee in a real mug, fabulous.

The 2 Café and ice cream caravans sited on the bridge approach are always busy with bikers and day trippers. The food is both nourishing and very filling and good value. An excellent stop off place for a lovely day on the riverside grassy banks and swim. There are large pebbly riverside edges for children to splash in the water, BUT, the river here can be deep and dangerous for unsupervised children.

bought two mugs of tea which to be fair was very good nice and strong but at the price they should include the mug.

A must for everyone! Fabulous mugs of tea for a pound and excellent baps with egg , bacon, sausage or all! Other snacks too but a bacon butty and mug of tea here should be in the Michelin guide!

The best bacon,sausage & egg butty I've ever tasted, when I parked up, people were sat all along the stone wall chomping away with big grins on their faces and the smells were intoxicating !!!

I've been going to Devils Bridge for years as I know quite a few motor cyclists who frequent this particular venue, one of the things I like is that when you buy tea or coffee you get it in a proper cup or mug not a horrible polystyrene/paper cup. Here is a tip if you ever go to a large gathering of motor cyclists have a look on the rear numberplate if you see the image of a black rat on the plate you will know you are in the company of one of my ex collegues of the Traffic Department.

We go here quite a lot with our bike club, the sandwiches are excellent and good value for money with plenty of bacon. Although it does get busy especially at weekends the staff are always pleasant

You cannot go to kirby lonsdale and not call here its a must. Especially at weekends when the bikers are there. Just great.

This van, to one side of Devil's Bridge, serves very good bacon butties and hot drinks. Just the ticket for hungry bikers and appreciated by we less athletic folk too!

Never realised the van was not on trip advisor, what can you say its not gourmet food but it is a good fry up. Not convinced the new lolly stick identification is the best way. If you live 10 miles from here and ride a bike then you can't find a boring route here, 30 plus years going here. Love it.

Ignore the signs in kirkby touting the best bacon butties an get yourself to the bridges for kerry's butties! Best hangover cure ever an 000's of bikers cant be wrong!
