Changed ownership 3 times in last 4 years and unfortunately none have had real success, part of that is i suppose is the there are too many cafes in such a little village. The ther 3 are all well known and loved for their individuality but this one doesnt offer anything above and beyond. Coffee, cakes. jackets sandwiches toasties and breakfasts so unless it develops its own unique style it will never be a roaring success.The quality and taste is just average and is somehing you can buy and make to the same quality at home for a fraction of the price

A weekend away and a walk down memory lane for us. We lived in longridge 30 years ago and enjoyed seeing that some things don't change. But it was nice to see some new cafes! We went into Hawthorns because it was dog friendly and what a lovely surprise we got! It is so pretty inside! The staff were lovely and the sandwiches were delicious! We did of course have to treat ourselves to a Wallings ice cream on the way out and it was delicious! Highly recommended!

On a mission to try all the cafes in Longridge, we ventured up to Hawthorns...Having tried Tayah's and Cafe 65, Hawthorns was pleasantly different: clean, bright, modern with matching chairs and tables and nicely decorated in pastel colours.We sampled the cakes and were surprised by a decent selection still available half an hour before closing. We were served by a friendly member of staff who took our order promptly. Delicious chocolate cake and a scone arrived on pastel coloured plates which were complemented by matching white coffee cups. I must say that I wasn't too keen on the coffee: my latte didn't taste creamy and the coffee was bitter rather than mellow. That aside, we had a pleasant experience and will be back to try the breakfast.

A lovely spacious, clean cafe; with attentive polite staff.Plenty of options on the menu for all tastes and ages.Not as pricey as some other Longridge cafes.Take away menu available and also one can just drop in for ice creams which is Wallings so is very tasty. Bookings taken also for afternoon teas.We would definately revisit.Slightly higher up the hill than the other establishments but well worth going to.

Debemos han mirado 5 o 6 cafeterías en Berry Lane en nuestra búsqueda de un lugar razonable para tener un almuerzo rápido. Por suerte, nos decidimos por Hawthorns y quedamos muy satisfechos, lo hicimos. Una buena selección de paninis capturado nuestro ojo y cuando vinieron, nos quedamos encantados. Muy bien decorado interior - un montón de servicio ligero y agradable de terminar una visita muy satisfactoria.

Visitamos un par de veces y es uno de los mejores cafés en longridge. La comida es sabrosa, la batidos son deliciosos como mi hijo pequeño me dice que el café es bueno. Está limpio, el personal es amable y han interactuado con mis niños pequeños. Tienen una pequeña colección de libros para niños (para los niños) y revistas prensa jaja/para disfrutar mientras espera. A un precio muy razonable y buenas porciones. Visitaremos de nuevo

He visitado varias veces desde su inauguración Hawthorns y hemos disfrutado de cada visita.El café es luminoso, espacioso y limpio y también es muy accesible si tienes un cochecito con usted. Hay mesas y sillas para granja encantador sentarse en, o si lo prefiere, un cómodo rincón junto a la chimenea. El personal es amable y servicial y encantador también con niños!El menú es claro y simple, con opciones para todos los gustos (la carne asada es deliciosa y liberar con una guarnición de ensalada encantador!Como extras) y papel para colorear lápices los niños son muy apreciadas y las sillas altas y para cambiar pañales están limpios!Hawthorns es, de lejos, el mejor café de Longridge y volveremos merece una visita!

Visitamos dos veces en 1 semana hawthornes. Encantadora y espaciosa con personal diferente cada vez que estaban en cada visita muy atento y muy dispuesto a agradar. La comida era adorable y muy buena relación calidad-precio. Este es un café muy limpio y amplio, con personal que se desviven por u. Espero que sobrevive teniendo en cuenta la competencia de otros cafés de la zona y también es un poco más lejos de otras cafeterías en Longridge. Es mucho bien merece una visita.

No baked potatoes available at 12.15 on a Friday?? Opted for a salad, but this was bland and boring. Nice inside and pleasant staff but food needs addressing.

Al ser un local que pensé que podría probar esta nueva cafetería. Los alrededores son encantadores y un tiene un ambiente relajante cuando entras. Pedí un té descafeinado, pero sólo podían ofrecer el establecimiento de earl grey que personalmente me no me gusta así que pedí un café descafeinado con leche, hizo otra vez que no podían hacer esto, así que pedí un vaso de leche con un queso y jamón gratinados. Pedí en la guarnición no pepino ensalada.La camarera era muy agradable y nos trajeron mi pedido. La leche estaba medio vaso, y no fue sino un pequeño pan de baguette. La guarnición de ensalada no tenía pepino como lo pedí pero era espolvoreado con salsa de chili! Lo siento, pero no hay ninguna mención de la salsa de chili una escasez de panini.Por favor, mencione este cliente como alguien con reacciones alergic podría estar en problemas.

Excellent full English and scrambled eggs and smoked salmon delivered speedily when chef advised we were in a hurry. Also had soy milk along with delicious coffee. Friendly waitress, clean and pleasant surroundings. Will definitely pop back in for the scrummy looking cakes when next in the area.

This coffee shop only opened some six weeks ago is at the top end of Berry Lane in Longridge.In view of all the competition in the same area this was a brave decision.

GF likes here as the chicken liver pate and accompanying pizza garlic bread also hit the spot. So there ended up a couple of those on the table plus a king prawn ginger starter. All OK. Mains a bit more disappointing especially the Sunday Roast Beef. Thin tough slices of beef served with their basic veg that they serve with their other dishes. No effort there. The Madeira pork was nice and GF enjoyed her fettuccine paradiso. Couple of desserts - one someone’s second sundae of the weekend and the other a decent crème brûlée. £36 for a bottle of standard Soave is outrageous and I have to say the place lacked any atmosphere and the staff any warmth.

This was not our first visit to the Calf’s Head but it has to be the best meal we have ever had. It was a large family gathering and despite the size of the party the service was friendly and efficient. Looking forward to a return visit, hopefully not in the too distant future.

Great food, great service, reasonably priced. Would recommend. I ordered the ox cheek pie and husband ordered the fish and chips which were both lovely, being really picky the mash were a bit on the dry side, but I would still recommend.

Turned up at about 8.50am on Easter bank holiday Monday. Had checked the website before hand. It said open at 8am. So we went along. 4 of us. Three adults and a 2 year old. Got to the door, which was open. Was told “we open in 10 minutes” we asked if we could sit inside for that time (because it was a bit chilly outside) but the dark haired girl said she was doing the cashing up so no we couldn’t. I was there with my daughters and a 2 year old. We were hardly going to rob the place. Plus, it turned out when we got inside that this was a building with a very open communal seating area which she could have let us sit at for 10 minutes. We ordered our food. I asked if there was any juice for kids (the 2 year old) - the dark haired girl working said “only what we’ve got in the fridge”. I said “don’t you have any orange juice or anything like that?” The reply being - “only what we’ve got in the fridge” which was those pretentious glass bottles of 1930’s fizzy pop (the brand that does stuff like dandelion and burdock). I bought two bottles of “Orange and Mandarin” thinking they weren’t fizzy. They were. More fool me. Basically Tory Fanta. Anyway. I went and sat down with my older daughters and my 2 year old son. My daughters ordered avocado on toast with salmon. I had a full English being the uncouth soul that I am. I asked if they have a kids menu for my 2 year old. The answer was no. I ordered him beans, one sausage and some scrambled eggs. I was told this could be done from the side menu, that alone cost £7.50. The beans, sausage and eggs came out on the same plate as one of my daughters breakfast. We had to guess that was the case (not mastermind but still ridiculously daft that they’d do this) we had to ask for a plate for my 2 year old who was in a high chair. Anyway. Another family came in about the same time as us. Low and behold another of their staff bought out two huge glasses of orange juice for them. So they did have other drinks available. My full English was ok, but it wasn’t great. The bacon was burned. It wasn’t crispy like the menu says. It was burned. So if the proprietor/owner wants to reply to this with a clever comment. The bacon was burned. Also, the poached eggs were COLD. And I don’t mean not quite warm, they were cold. We were the first people in, the place wasn’t busy and somehow I was served cold poached eggs. I’ve re read through the menu tonight before writing this review. Whenever I choose a place to eat again I’m always going to look for the word “Artisan” because that to me, on the whole means not very good. The “Artisan” toast I received was just sliced bread, but toasted. They even claim to have an “Artisan” Brioche bun If you look up the definition of “Artisan” in the dictionary it says. a person or company that produces something (such as cheese or wine) in limited quantities often using traditional methods —often used before another noun artisan breads I don’t think that you can claim that obviously pre sliced bread or even a Brioche Bun is “Artisan”. There’s too many mediocre cafes/restaurants who have latched onto this word and used it. The company website claims “We focus on quality and sustainability above all, which extends to everything we do. From our suppliers to takeaway packaging, we carefully select each element keeping you and the planet in mind. We support local, and well-being of the community is at the heart of what we do.” This is nonsense. My daughters asked for some tap water, they were pointed towards one of those fancy upside down glass water bottles, and plastic cups, plastic lids. Lots of plastic. They had paper straws. I don’t know about you, but if you want to be really sustainable, if someone asks for tap water, give them a glass of tap water in a glass. Zero plastic, zero waste. To finish up. Pros - pretty pattern on the coffee. Cons - Really incredibly gormless staff; bad cook who can’t even cook bacon or keep a poached egg warm; rude; not child friendly as no kids menu even at weekends/bank holidays (although there was a couple of high chairs). As you can imagine I will never be going back to this place. I’ve given them two stars because my daughter liked the swirly pattern on the top of her Flat White.
