Gadebridge Cafe in Dacorum

I used to visit this café regularly, especially throughout the Covid epidemic when it re-opened. The staff were always so friendly, providing great service with a smile and engaging in witty conversation. They were always accommodating when I wanted to make adjustments to my meal, which was really nice. The Gadebridge Cafe was the heart of the community and helped bring in customers for the other local shops. The food was always cooked fresh and served in generous portions, and it was always delicious. 😋 However, everything has changed now, possibly due to a big group that pre-booked a table. As since there are no more outdoor seating, staff seem withdrawn and various people and dogs are banned. It's such a shame because the locals used to enjoy sitting outside, never taking up too much space, while enjoying a smoke and some drinks, and saying hello to others passing by. No more community spirit.

This place was awful. I’ve been a few times now. The manager of the place is rude, always on the phone talking his own language shouting at the staff and customers, if his not in the kitchen his at the front smoking. He really bullies his staff, shouting at them and getting really upset with them. I have never seen anything like it. Our food order was completely wrong, and when I got my food it was cold and raw. I did tell them about it and took longer for me to get fresh food again. I see the old waitress has returned and she is so miserable. My daughter whose 8 asked where the toilet was and she was ridiculously rude to her just pointed and my daughter didn’t know where to go. The staff 3 weeks ago was amazing always smiling they would go out their way for us. Always asking if we needed anything made us feel comfortable. Looks like he has new staff who has no manners and who are unfriendly. Gadebridge cafe has really gone down hill. The manager needs regular staff who are friendly and he needs to learn to have some manners himself.

Now this is what I call a perfect Christmas Dinner! It was well cooked, served hot and delicious with homemade turkey gravy. Not at a fancy posh restaurant that cost a fortune, but a family run cafe in Gadebridge. Thank you guys, see you next year. (That’s in about 10 days)😉😍

Popped in for breakfast with my family and received a warm welcome. We had sausage bagettes which had 4 sausages each, great value for money. Will be back for the full English breakfast very soon and another mug of tea!
