Joeys Cafe in South Lakeland

Loved the offerings in this cafe. It’s not all vegan but most is. And delicious! The no steak pasty was very tasty. Best hot choc I’ve had in a long time too. Unfortunately everything is served in single use packaging. As an environmentalist myself I’m all for being eco-friendly but the most sustainable cup is the one you don’t use. A ceramic cup can be washed and reused many times. A cup made of plants still has a carbon footprint in its manufacture and disposal so I think this needs a re-think.

The Cake and hot chocolate was nice and sold dog treats too. However it’s quite expensive and sorry to say it was Very Very slow service

Exclusively vegan. Can you imagine what a vegan would say if there was nothing but meat on offer. They would think it outrageous. Well I have to eat strict low carb, so nothing for me here. Won’t be back.

We stopped at Joey’s near Claife viewing station, while we were waiting for the ferry from Ash Landing to Bowness. I had a flat white and my husband had a latte, all made freshly and were very nice and hot. I had a slice of fig, date and oat cake and my husband had a slice of cherry brownie. We both thoroughly enjoyed them and our visit from a little Robin. Very reasonably priced.

We visited Wray castle and pleased to see a sign for cafe we expected it to be a basic coffee place but boy we were wrong. Joeys is a quirky cafe which sells lots of vegan friendly products and not one can of fizzy pop such as coke or tango instead all juices and smoothies. We ordered coffee and tried the tortilla chips with guacamole and cheese and beans and what a nice treat. The dish was £10 but good bit of food and enough to fill two of us sharing, we sat outside under cover with the rain falling eating a hot meal just perfect. Dog treats and you can purchase doggy food and ice cream. Even decent toilets. Would highly recommend.

If I could give Joe a 100* review then I would. My husband fell off his bike not far from Wray Castle and Joe's girlfriend stopped to help, and rang Joe to come and help us. I cannot thank Joe enough, he was with us within minutes and very kindly took us (and our bikes) back to Ambleside. My husband was hurt, but not enough to need an ambulance We didn't have any money and he said he wouldn't have taken any even if we had. This could have been an absolute nightmare but because of Joe's kindness, it just made things easier. What a guy, thank you so so much, I can't tell you how much we appreciated your help.

Great cafe and it’s vegan. Yay. Great coffee and cake. Friendly staff. Lots of good options whether you want sweet or savoury.

Amazing little cafe and so friendly. Gentleman in cafe offered us left over food as cafe was closing which was most welcome due to long drive home tomorrow. Coffee perfect too.

Great coffee. Yep. Banana cake was old. Ginger cake was just pure sweetness. No depth or breadth to it. Disappointed in the cake game. Impressed by their coffee.

We fell into Joey's cafe at Wray castle after a longer, and more challenging, than planned walk up from the ferry. We shared a Coronation chickpea sandwich and a roasted veg baguette - both very tasty. I also had a coffee, which was very much needed! We bought a piece of blueberry polenta cake to share on our walk back to our car - also very tasty. Lots of seating in and around the cafe, some inside, some under cover and some more overlooking the lake. Very pleasant staff. All good, nothing negative to say!

Terrible cafe , over priced and everything in paper cups and cartons . Refused to pay top prices for tea in paper cups ! Surely it's more environmentally friendly to have plates you can wash . Really disappointed as was looking forward to a scone and a cup of tea , as you would imagine would be a standard offering at a NT property . Oh and after charging so much of course you have to put your waste in the bin , the only mugs are the ones visiting this cafe !

Delicious food - I had a 'steak' pastie and dhal followed by some gingerbread and a cup of tea. All wonderful. Really nicely presented in a cute café. Very friendly robin outside mopped up my crumbs. Ignore the negative comments on here. So it doesn't serve meat and dairy (except for teas and coffees)? You'll cope for one meal and may be pleasantly surprised. They also had vegan soft ice cream although that would have been a bit greedy.

This cafe is brilliant!! Such a quirky little place and it was dog friendly too. Loved the selection of foods, cakes and juices! The coffee was also very lovely too!

If you are on the west side path on the edge of Lake Windermere heading south for the Ferry ,Joeys is there to refresh you with fine vegetarian food and great assortment of cold and hot drinks Really friendly and the cauliflower chick pea and onion bhaji pastie …. well !

Visited with our son and 3 young grandchildren. I really liked the ambience (vibe), we had excellent Daal with Naan bread , good carrot cake, coffee and other assorted bits, we sat tucked away inside and it felt as if we could have been in a warm Nepali cafe. A surprisingly pleasant change from the usual National Trust cafe .
