Lakeside Cafe in Craven - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great atmosphere and very tasty food at weekends. Staff and customers are all very welcoming and friendly. Would recommend a visit.

Have eaten here many times - both lunch and dinner on a Friday. The food is freshly cooked, tasty and the service is great.

On a sunny Saturday in June, we found .. peace and quiet, amiable owner, great value breakfasts (served till 1 pm: £6 full vegarian, £7 full English) and sat by the window with pretty views of the smaller lake. Afterwards took a short stroll to view the larger lake, then made our way through lanes to Cowling to see the amazing views from Wainmain's pinnacle -- we'll be back!

We visisted here for drinks and also breakfast during our stay at the hideaway cabin they run. Great bar, lovely decor, spotlessly clean. Friendly hosts and the nicest breakfast sandwiches! On a nice night grab a drink and sit out over the lakes, amazing views and a tranquil area. Cant wait to return.

We had a lovely walk up to Raygill cafe/ bar for breakfast. A full English breakfast with coffee was absolutely spot on, great service and beautiful views. Always a warm welcome from Amanda, highly recommended.

Owners are lovely, the food and drink are splendid and the views are to die for. Must recommend the burgers- Amazing! Can't wait to go again!

If you are looking for local hand pulled beer, a cheeky Prosecco or a great cuppa this is the perfect place. Highly recommend the delicious gourmet venison burgers with Stilton! Also a great place for events which are fun and well attended by both local village residents and visitors.

Popped in for a spot of lunch with some friends and children. It was a cold, wet and miserable day but we got a very warm welcome. We ordered hot chocolates, milkshakes, coffees, toasties, sausage sandwiches and a burger with homemade cakes and biscuits for pudding. All of which were delicious. I hear they have since opened a bar and started serving food in the evening. we will definitely be back.

After visiting Raygill lakes take a detour to the lakeside cafe where there is a brilliant range of burgers and other things on offer ! When I say burgers , there are at least 5 different types to try including a wonderful venison burger I tried topped with cheese a spices all washed down with wonderful Italian lager ! The well stocked bar has something for everyone and is well looked after by the lovely Amanda , mine hostess , I repeat this is not to be missed , a real hidden gem ! ! !

This is an excellent place to visit with the little ones, even if your not into fishing there's still plenty to do and see. The cafe was very clean and was full of history of the quarry and the minerals that were quarried there. The food is excellent too. We came to do the nature trail which the kids loved especially the big cave lion!

Just popped in for a look round. The food coffee and cakes are very good pleasant surroundings overlooking the Lake with lovely service will be visiting again.

What a pleasant surprise this was, a real gem of a find in the middle of nowhere! We were going to sit outside but it turned a bit nippy so reluctantly we went inside but Wow, it was lovely with a good seating area and a fab view of the lake from our table. Great homemade burgers (hubby said it was the best ever!) and the kids loved the homemade chocolate cake. The coffee was good too. It looks a little untidy outside but I urge you to venture in and meet the owners, very friendly and informative on the history of Raygill. Great old photos in the cafe. Will definitely be back to try the toasted sandwiches soon, the next table had them and they looked yummy. Seek this place out, you'll be as surprised as we were. :)

Had a lovely sandwich and drink here this morning and the children enjoyed their milkshakes. Just what we needed after our lovely walk.

Having a ride out in the area with our Grandson we decided to call in for some lunch. We parked the car in a large car park and then walked up the road past the lake - very pleasant indeed. Please note that if you are unable to walk the short distance, you can drive up to the café and park your car just behind it. The café has just been decorated and has old photos of the quarry on the walls, it also looks out over the lake and the distant hills. The menu has a good choice of cold sandwiches, toasties and also hot sandwiches. Sometimes, especially on a weekend, the owner, Amanda has some of her own made burgers either pork or venison and they are very tasty! Also there is normally a couple of homemade cakes and some cookies, scones as well as ice creams, chocolate bars and crisps Afterwards we bought a bag of duck food and went and fed the ducks and geese.

3rd visit in recent weeks. A lovely, friendly little cafe with views over one of the lakes. Called today with some friends and our dog (well behaved dogs welcome). Menu is limited, mainly sandwiches - hot, cold, burgers etc., nice cakes and a good cuppa (no chips or fries) but what you get is good and freshly made. Started off as a cafe for the fishermen and it appears the 4 lakes are well stocked from the catches we saw. Nice walk around the old quary after lunch. Would recommend a visit for light snack.
