Bought a BLT and ham salad sandwich. The bacon in the BLT was hardly cooked, very fatty. Almost broke my tooth on something in the sandwich, must of been a stone in the salad. Very expensive for what you get. The brownie was good though. Would recommend going elsewhere

Stopped in here to pick up some takeaway sandwiches before a hike. Staff unfriendly and didn’t have hardly any bread in - it was 10:15am. Felt like a inconvenience that we wanted them to make us two sandwiches. We paid over £14 for 2 takeaway sandwiches and crisps. When I opened the paper wrapping it was very very basic. Avoid.

Went in for lunch and was greeted by the manager who seemed very condescending and patronising her tone was very blunt and unprofessional to say the least. When we sat down the table was sticky and the menus were covered in water stains and barley legible the pricing was appalling I paid £6.95 for a tuna and cucumber sandwich which tasted awful the tuna was gone off and left me feeling very unwell and being sick for the rest of the day. Also I was sat in side watching the way the manager was treating her staff there was 2 young girls one of which obviously hadn’t been trained properly (not her fault) she was being berated for not knowing what to do when it wasn’t busy (cleaning and place holder jobs) which was shocking coming from a manager who’s job is to train her staff members I find this terrible coming who is a manager at a hospitality business I can’t lie I don’t understand why she is a manager because she is clearly incompetent and just seemed like a bully in general

Wouldn't go again. Walked in and nobody greeted us or said hi or anything. Sat at a dirty table and picked up some menus and went to order and pay. Drinks arrived and were plonked on the dirty table, still not offering to clean it. Soya milk was completely lumpy and off and upset my boyfriends stomach to the point where he was throwing up most of the day and had to cut our holiday short. The breakfast wasn't even the best, very standard. Asked one of the girls for toast with no butter and we just got a 'sure' and walked off. So if you want to treat yourself to miserable young staff and a bog standard breakfast, go here+

stopped here for a breakfast bite before we travelled home after a few days break , firstly I thought the menu was a bit limited but we decided on an egg barm and a Cumberland sausage barm , bit surprised I was asked to pay before we received our food , understand now as I wouldn't of probably paid , how wrong can you get two barms , my wife's egg looked like it was run over by a steam roller and my sausage was burnt to a cinder , pre cooked breakfast ingredients were just put in plastic containers and left on a cold shelf , think the owners or staff were completely out of their depth .

Decided to try this cafe as my husband had been here a number of times in the past, ordered at the til took a seat first thing my husband said was we’re gonna smell when we come out of here this was down to the smell of grease, 2 pots of tea came in 2 different sized pots, raspberry and white chocolate brownie was ice cold and very stodgy, my husband asked for his chocolate brownie to be warmed up and for cream added which they did, the lady behind the counter along with the 2 young lads working with her were very loud and conversations were not what we wanted to listen too while having a cuppa, I noticed the dust on the shelves and the hand washing sink was dirty, there was a hole in the wall near the serving hatch which had insulation visible, the serving hatch was unkempt and paint scratched off, one of the glass front fridges had paperwork, letter etc in it didn’t look very appealing, the lady who was serving did t look very professional and even though she was serving food didn’t have an apron on, they were washing dishes at a sink next to the hand washing station, when we left I did check there food hygiene rating and it’s been given a 5, I’m not sure how they have that when the place looks anything but clean, my first visit also my last!

The highlight of our Keswick visit was always a scone and coffee at Laura’s. Not any more. The coffee was ok but the scone came cold, half the size, no vanilla and not pleasant. The shop now looks unloved, trashy with pink isolating tape on counter front and generally not as friendly. What a total shame the new owners have not taken some advice. Won’t be going back. Sorry.

This little cafe used to be our 'go to' cafe and have loved it for many years, but what a shock it was to see the changes. No dogs allowed inside anymore, the once delicious cakes have gone and the two brownies that we ordered were inedible. A once great cafe is now no longer, needless to say we won't be going back again, such a shame.

we were in at the weekend and a large table was ordering food . we were told it might be a wait of about 10 minutes but we were fine with that . The waitress was visibly grumpy and we heard her talking to her colleague complaining of how busy it was . We have been in her on so many occasions in the past . We ordered 4 breakfasts as they would not do my daughter beans on toast . The portions were not very good and the bill came to just short on £50 which was a good portion would not have been too bad

First time visit. It was not the Laura in the Lakes I was thinking of, later I found out it has changed hands. Very disappointing. The cafe smelled of cooking fat. Very average if that, compared to other cafes in Keswick. The waitress waited at the till at the side waiting for our order which was off putting. I ordered a panini tuna melt with nachos, my partner a breakfast bun which he enjoyed. My order arrived as a baguette not a panini swimming in greasy melted cheddar cheese, I had to dig out the tuna, with spicy nachos, a strange combination. Not very appealing to the eye. The coffee was fine. The food was edible. The service was nice. Wouldn't go back unfortunately.

Visited here on the 24th September 2022. The cafe has now been sold and is now moshing more than a takeaway with a few outside tables to eat your carryout at. We were very disappointed as have used gjis place many times before and have sways been pleased with the food, staff, service etc. The food on offer was all prepacked, the pannini's we order turned out to be baguettes microwaved in the bags grey were packed in, drinks all came in carry out cups. Definitely no longer a cafe. Hate to say it but think the food would have been better at Gregs. Loved this place before but will not be rushing back.

How the best has fallen. From the best cafe in Keswick, under the old management to easily the worst in a few months. Gone are the china crockery, the excellent coffee, the amazing home made cakes and excellent lunches. In has come disposable cups and pre wrapped food. What a disgrace. Awful.

The milk shake was warm and expensive for what you got, and the panini was inedible… not to mention the attitude of one of the staff members behind the counter was shocking! Dirty tables outside along with an overflowing bin onto Keswick Main Street! Laura where are you? The cafe NEEDS you back! Such a shame is it use to be my all time favourite cafe in Keswick!

Honestamente, no puedo creer algunas de las críticas negativas en esta página, especialmente la que se refiere a las medidas de Covid 19 que están vigentes, ya que he estado compartiendo con mi familia lo brillantes que son en comparación con otros lugares en los que he estado. Habíamos estado en el lago y vinimos a Keswick para comer algo. Mientras esperábamos una mesa, observé a un miembro del personal limpiar las mesas y sillas que acababan de usar otros clientes, luego, cuando estaba listo, el miembro del personal con una máscara facial nos saludó cortésmente y nos ofreció una mesa limpia para que nos sentáramos . Elegimos nuestras comidas y bebidas de las tablas y dimos nuestro pedido. Mientras estaba sentado allí, noté un letrero laminado en la mesa que se colocó en el costado con una marca roja, informando al cliente que la mesa había sido limpia y en el otro lado había una cruz verde a la que le dio la vuelta al salir, esta luego le informaría al miembro del personal que la mesa necesitaba limpiar nuevamente para el próximo cliente. También le pidió que pusiera todas sus cajas de comida y cubiertos en el contenedor provisto. Pedí un americano con lasaña, ensalada y pan crujiente y mi esposo comió un americano, pastel de carne y papas con frijoles y una papa asada, ambas comidas estaban deliciosas y mi café estaba tan caliente que me lo llevé y lo bebí mientras miraba alrededor de las tiendas. Las comidas se servían en una caja de cartón para llevar que parecía reciclable con un cuchillo y tenedores de madera que pensé que era una idea brillante. El personal era muy amable y no tuvimos ningún problema con que nuestro perro también estuviera allí.

Decidimos probar este lugar en nuestro último día en Keswick y nos recibió un miembro del personal muy amable que nos acompañó a una mesa al aire libre y vino a tomar nuestro pedido poco después de haber tenido la oportunidad de ver los paneles del menú .Realmente me apetecía un bollo y chocolate caliente y ambos estaban deliciosos, el bollo claramente hecho en casa, delicioso, húmedo y de buen tamaño. El chocolate caliente estaba delicioso y no demasiado dulce con una generosa ración de crema y malvaviscos. Mi marido tenía un panini que disfrutó.En otra mesa, alguien tenía una caja de ensalada que se veía tan hermosa que terminé recibiendo comida, envidia y pedí una para llevar a casa para la cena, estaba deliciosa y muy bien llena.Las medidas de Covid son buenas; mesas completamente limpias (asientos al aire libre solo por el momento) y a una buena distancia. Definitivamente volveremos a visitarnos la próxima vez que estemos en los lagos.

Elegí este lugar basado en la señalización exterior y agradable, área de descanso y menú, etc. Pedí un par de tés y bocadillos de pescado. Wow, nunca había visto un butty tan decepcionante en toda mi vida. Fueron literalmente 3 palitos de pescado baratos en un lote con un poco de salsa tártara en una caja. Sin lechuga, adornar solo un puñado de doritos picantes, ¡que no sirvieron para nada! Era suave y beige. Me habría sentido avergonzado de haberlo servido. La cantidad de esfuerzo y orgullo fue pobre. Según las expectativas iniciales, la experiencia fue abrumadoramente mala.

Después de mis mejores ojos de cachorro, me permitieron un poco de tocino y puedo confirmar que era encantador.A mis humanos les encantaba que las mesas tuvieran letreros de volteo para asegurar que ninguna mesa no se limpiara accidentalmente entre usos. ¡Fue muy reconfortante saber que todos estábamos a salvo! También fue un precio decente comparado con otros lugares cercanos.Lo único que diría es que en realidad no había mucho espacio entre las mesas, cuando me acosté tomé literalmente todo el espacio a pesar de que estaba recostado y estirado, ¡mi ancho era el ancho del espacio! ¡Me preocupaba estar en el camino de las personas y ser una molestia! ?? 4/5 Major woo's

Fantastic little cafe right in the centre of Keswick. After an extensive tour of the many tea rooms/cafes in the town, this was by far the best. We had both breakfast and lunch here. The hubby declared the cheese scones not only the biggest but also the best of the many he tried during our trip. The selection of cakes and tray bakes are to die for!!! We can recommend the Guinness & white chocolate cake, chocolate & beetroot brownie, and the cappuccino crunch tiffin, all very tasty! The staff are all lovely and the service is excellent. No gimmicks just a great little spot with fantastic food and lovely staff, we will definitely be back.

Called into Laura in the Lakes for a quick bite, after seeing some good reviews on TripAdvisor. Although not overly busy was lovely and warm and a very well presented counter. Ordered our snacks and drinks which came promptly. Hot chocolate was to die for! But the fish finger sandwich was like a tartare sauce overkill! Literally over powered the whole thing. Plus considering how large the bread was, to only have 3 fish fingers in it was a bit unexpected considering the price tag attached to it. Tried to attract the staffs attention, but this fell on deaf ears. Might have just been an off day they were having. And more then willing to give it another whirl whenever in back in the Keswick area. Although will add the selection of Tiffin looked amazing!

We came after a walk up Dodd, on our way to a walk around Bassenthwaite Lake so stopped by for a coffee and cake. It has to be given credit that they have vegan options- I got an almond milk cappuccino and my sister got oat milk. The cake portion sizes are very generous and taste great! Would’ve given 5 stars but the use of single use plastic around the tiffin was slightly annoying when sitting in, no need for the plastic waste and they could just give a little bag if ordering to take away

Had paninis and coffee outdoors. The paninis were delicious and the bread was light and tasty. The table however, wasn’t very clean however, and I had to ask for it to be wiped, as the food plate was placed on top of the remnants of the previous meal.

Pleased that we chose this Cafe There was another one across the road that looked equally inviting but decided to plonk ourselves down at one of the Tables outside.

We were staying in Keswick for a week. On day 3 we tried Laura in the Lakes for breakfast. We were not disappointed. The food was of the highest quality, The staff were all very friendly and approachable, willing to answer all questions on both their menu and things to do in and around Keswick.

We stopped by Laura in the lakes late in the afternoon on a Saturday (kind of expecting to be too late to order food). The staff were very friendly. The vegetarian lasagna was delicious and the portion size was huge.

Excellent, friendly and efficient service and the paninis were soooooo tasty made by an artisan bakery. Would thoroughly recommend Laura’s 👍😀

Had a delicious cheese scone and one of their luxury hot chocolates. Both were fantastic. The staff were all friendly and although the same cafe was very busy the service was really quick and the quality was amazing. We will definitely visit again next time we’re in Keswick

Lovely little cafe in the main shopping area. We had bacon baguettes and tea (served in lovely blue teapots) and our son had a roll with sausage and a HUGE hot chocolate, cream and marshmallows. Excellent value for money. Very friendly, very clean and although the toilet was a bit of a hike, it was spotless.

Popped in here after visiting the market. What a lovely friendly team. We ordered the meat pie with beans and the gorgeous vegetarian lasagne, made that morning by Laura and served with salad, so tasty although it could have been hotter. I had a huge cup of coffee but we had no room

We had to visit this cafe as it is my namesake. We were so happy to see vegan cakes are served as are alternative milks, so it's a thumbs up from us already. It was lovely to sit outside and enjoy our drinks. Really nice.

First day in the Lakes, first fuel stop before a long and damp walk. Laura in the lakes with its bright colours and bustling atmosphere took us in straight away. The americano was fantastic and the dairy-free cake was wonderful, think I had a lemon cake if my mind serves me right.

We had huge pieces of cake, which were delicious and coffee too. Best of all we had smiles from the main lady, a laugh and quite often that gets the 5 stars.

This cafe does lovely fresh cobs to takeaway - I had a tuna on a brown seeded cob which came in a great little takeway box along with some crisps. Its the little things that make a difference! No soggy paper wrapper and nicely protected from the rain.

Refused to give me a top up of tea despite advertising free top ups. This is because I asked for 2 cups with my pot of tea (which is the only option for those opting for tea) as my partner and I only wanted a cup each. A really silly system which penalises the customer for wanting what they want.

Great place to stop for a bite to eat. We only had coffee and scones but it was very nice and the scones were amazing. They do serve main meals which from what I saw looked very nice.

We stopped here for lunch and both ordered paninis, they were delicious and freshly made. Great selection of gluten free cakes, it gets very busy here so sometimes have to just linger and wait for a table! Definitely worth the wait. Staff are very friendly.

Being called Laura, I had to eat here whilst visiting Keswick and I was very glad we did as the food and drinks were lovely. There was plenty of choice for veggies (more than the standard 'mozzarella and basil panini or cheese and tomato toastie) and even vegan options on the specials board (definitely recommend the vegan sausage cheese and red onion panini)

Visited here on a day out in Keswick and I can safely say my food was brilliant and my partner loved hers. The order was fulfilled quickly even when it was pretty busy and it's a cute little cafe to eat at. Would definitely come back when visiting again.

Only had a round of drinks between us (two adults and two children) but the service was a delight. Really warm and welcoming. We also got told about some upcoming events we might be interested in that weekend. It just felt like a lovely place to enjoy the sun al fresco. We wished we'd tried the food now.

Sad to say that our trip there was a a big disappointment when it come to the food. We all had beef, it was dry and chewy. When we talked to the waiter, we have been told that is the way the chef does it. It is a shame that they only sell well done cuts of meat...

Fantastic hidden gem. We stayed over for a two night stay and we can’t wait to go back. Food is excellent, in fact the only thing I would say is next time I will go without a starter so I can try a dessert! Staff cannot do enough for you, warm, welcoming and nothing is too much. The atmosphere is pleasant and the way the dinning rooms are laid out is great it can be intimate or it can be more involved. Rooms are clean, spacious and the facilities are all there the baths are large and spacious as are the shower cubicles - if you want a place to stay I would HIGHLY recommend the Swinside inn
