Net's Coffee Shop in Cheshire West and Chester

Low quality food and drink. Had a turkey baguette, it was a sliced baguette with some turkey slices hanging out, a coffee cake which had a fudge like consistency and was unpleasantly sweet, like cheap sugar tasting. Dreadful coffee served in a glass. Will never go back. Would not recommend.

Went there on a bike ride and have heard about this cafe. It’s in a great location and gets lots of trade from cyclists and dog walkers. This is probably why they charge to much for really poor quality. Nasty cheap sausage and rubbish coffee in a class mug. All in all not great.

This cafe is just great. It has plenty of room and loads of benches and tables outside too. The cakes are phenomenal and locally made. We went just for a cup of tea and piece of cake during a walk. You get either a good big mug of tea or a pot, whichever you prefer. They also do lunches which are very popular with the many cyclists that pass by, it is a popular meeting place for them, but we have always found a seat even when it's busy.

We made a day of it with a bike ride out from Shotton to here and then in to and around Chester. Net's cafe was the perfect place for a bit of lunch. nice panini and Cornish pasty, ice cream and a take-away scone! Fully fuelled up on very reasonable prices.

Not impressed at all, frog marched out as I had a dog, told to go in the SHED which was damp dirty 2 tables and a bench, dark straw all over the floor and a tractor in it. It was raining so didn't want to get wet in there. Come on, this day and age, much more classy cafes very dog friendly suggest you try one before going there. Flissys in Thurstaston 5* well worth a visit.

Cycled here from Mold area. Sited just off cycle path from Deeside onto the Wirral. I’d heard of this from a pal, who’d recommended it as great cycle cafe. Yes even on an overcast / drizzly Friday morning/ lunchtime it definitely not quiet, at least 12++ cycles outside, half dozen folks sat outside, many more inside, but still lots of space inside and out. Menu looked ok as a cycle/ walking cafe - and a few car folks. I intended asking for bacon Butty and coffee, but as I got to the counter , there staring at me was a slab like portion of chocolate brownie for £2.50 very well worth it , tasty rich but not too rich. Bacon bap , white bap, enough bacon, and tasty with just the right amount of brown sauce added - and brought outside to me. Coffee cappuccino was ok , not the best not the worst - served it’s purpose, a caffeine lift to power me through Deeside then back up the hill. In summary would I recommend and visit again, YES x 2 definitely.

Situated on the popular Burton Marsh footpath not far from a small car pull in, the location is ideal for cyclists and walkers alike. The menu includes sandwiches, cakes and some meals in a relaxing outdoor environment with a small indoor barn if the weather is not good. The food is nice, just the ticket if you are travelling by. When we are walking by, this little cafe always tempts us in for a break.

We found this place quite by accident on a cicular walk of the Wirral Way from Parkgate. 6 miles in we were in need of refreshment. It was full of bikes and we founda table outside in the sunshine and had a pop and a huge slice of cake each. Superb way to spend Sunday! Toilets were spotless too.

Love this cafe. They are catering very well for covid safety. The staff are always willing and friendly. The food is varied and the cakes in particular are fantastic. Loads of outside seating, plenty of parking space. Well serviced clean WCs, would always recommend. Never been disappointed.

It’s a great place to walk to with children as very safe . Great that you can sit outside weather permitting . Food is not the best quality and as previous reviews the coffee is poor . Would have cold drinks and cake next time . The sandwiches not to our liking and baked potatoes didn’t taste fresh . Great place just need to up their game.

Have been here several times recently and think its improved,good basic food,great selection of cake,nice service but!!the one thing every one says is,IF ONLY THEY DID PROPER COFFEE!in this day and age people are used to good coffee!from a proper machine not a vending machine.Really think it would make a big difference if they invested in a proper machine and learnt how to make a selection of Fresh coffes,might make a good cafe,GREAT!hope this is helpful.

It's a nice basic place to sit outside and admire the view. There is a basic menu of English type breakfast food. We have been here before. On this occasion the sausages in the sausage butties tasted cheap. Like they were mostly made of breadcrumbs.

Lovely pit stop on the cycle route. Friendly staff. Toilets in use with sanitizer - clean. Bins regularly emptied. Good service. lots of cake on offer and other hot food too. Nice tasting coffee - good price. Plenty outdoor space

Great little spot to grab a brew and a snack whilst enjoying the views. If sitting outside you will rewarded with the company of the local birds. Staff are friendly and helpful and have been great during COVID.

Great location on the edge of the marshlands at Burton . A very popular stop for cyclists. Unfortunately the coffee was awful.

Friendly, attentive staff, great snacks. Perfect pit stop for walkers, cyclists and visitors to The Wirral. Tables are kept scrupulously clean and every care taken to COVID-proof the cafe. Definitely recommend the bacon and egg batch!

Took myself on a cycle. Stumbled across the cafe. Nice spacing. Nice coffee. Nice view. Toilets in use. Cakes looked good

No indoor seating at the moment but plenty of tables outside. Great if It is sunny and a barn to sit inside if raining. Wooden tables do not have to be sprayed with disinfectant after use. There is not a full menu to choose from and you give your orders at the door outside. On our visits the staff have been welcoming and genuinely are happy to be open again. Food is good. The interior furniture and shape of the cafe apparently make it difficult to social distance inside. So I agree not all want to sit outside but at least you are safe. This is very busy at the moment and you could find yourself queuing but it is a lovely place to sit and relax or people watch. The toilets are in a separate building. Hopefully at some point when winter comes we will be able to sit once again inside.

Our first chance to have coffee and cake on a bike ride since lockdown. Well worth it - friendly staff and great cake. Felt like a real treat. Popular with other cyclists - and even the loos were open!

Looking forward to a cooked breakfast and was just offered a cheese or tuna sandwich and no catering for vegetarians at all.Breakfast batch I was curtly told was bacon and sausage roll.The advert for this place shows a cooked breakfast but no explanation was given.

We have today had a fabulous takeout afternoon tea. So much food and beautifully presented. Can't recommend enough. How lucky are we to have such a wonderful place on our doorstep. Thanks to everyone at Nets.

Am missing my regular trips to Nets, lovely, friendly & helpful staff & a great place to catch up with my family ... Go AWAY, Corona .👹👿💩.. & come back NETS 😀☕️😆☕️😃☕️😁☕️

Food & coffee ok but facilities for those with dogs, in bad weather, not very good. An old draughty barn with one bench. Other cafes in Neston much better for dog owners. Missing a good revenue stream when bikers allowed inside in wet weather.

Called in here today, what a gem of a place. Really good coffee and cakes at reasonable prices. Nice stop off for cyclists. Will definitely call again some time... ☕🍰

Pleasant surroundings, nice coffee and cake. Able to sit outsside as weather was good. Peaceful. Might not beasgood when weather is coldand wet.

Full of friends and families out walking or cycling on lovely days sitting outside enjoying the food and drinks on offer. If it’s a miserable day there is a large welcoming area to sit inside to treat yourself to the array of food on offer. Friendly staff, great atmosphere . Dogs welcome outside.

Nice food, efficient service and very pleasant location alongside the river dee estuary overlooking the welsh hills. The inside seating room was very clean and pleasant.

Have came here regularly since the Net 1st opened. It has gained a lot more business cyclists, walkers or family’s enjoying fresh air. The food has always been good and fresh. Recently they do not seem to be as good as when they first opened. My concern would be that the portions have gotten a lot smaller. A extremely small jacket potato served with bits of lettuce including two pieces of tomato,cucumber, with one strip of red pepper and a spoon of coleslaw cost £4-95. Hopefully this is a over-site and a one off. It does seem more expensive than other cafe’s.

Good location, at extended end of Greenway and close to Wirral trail. Great cakes but terrible coffee and staff that never smile.

Had a lovely coffee and sausage toastie today lovely and clean and great customer service. Lots of people enjoying the sun and plenty of water for our Pooches.

Great great place for a brew or something to eat. Amazing hidden gem. Lovely outdoor space, dog friendly. Just enjoyable

The service was excellent...A very nice remote location, over looking the River Dee onto North Wales

Lovely friendly little cafe with the most glorious of views over the Dee estuary. Popular with cyclists and walkers with good reason.

Coffee could be better but I'm very picky. Great for dogs inside and out. Lovely walk with views of the River Dee estuary and marshes. Very accomodating for cyclists and walkers

Always had a great cup of coffee and lovely cakes here. Lunch time selection is great too, with a great selection of lovely sandwiches etc.

Stop here regular with my 5 year old lad we ride out from Deeside. Cheese and onion toastie is perfect. In fact the best around all the local cafes that cyclists go to ! Price reasonable too...

Great place to stop for a cuppa and a large piece of cake after a push bike ride around the Wirral. Its situated at the start of the Millennium Route to Chester.

Usually find the food here really good but was disappointed today! My bacon sandwich hardly had any bacon in it !

Walked down to my 'local cafe' to enjoy some fresh air . Stopped off for a bite to eat . Lovely friendly staff . As a lone female sometimes it's hard going to places on your own but the staff were lovely . Brought my tasty bacon butty and coffee out to me . Plenty of bacon and hot coffee ... Highly recommend ( and the home made cakes are scrummy) . Obviously will return !

Dropped in during a bike ride for a cuppa. We had bacon butties and tea (decaff for me) and these were excellent. The staff are very good and friendly and the food was delivered quickly. Fully recommended.

Great full English breakfast, lovely cakes, friendly staff, great value. Lovely location. A fab place for cyclists, walkers and dogs.

This is a lovely coffee shop, staff friendly and welcoming. They do breakfasts, snacks and cakes. I had gluten free toast (done in a seperate toaster) which came buttered.

Called for tea & cake when out for a ride with grandchildren. Always a friendly welcome. Very popular with cyclists & birdwatchers.

It's great to nip in to Nets after a long cycle ride. At my last visit I met friends who had driven their car to have a drink and a cake, so it's enjoyed not just by people using the coastal path.

Great discovery on cycle path walking route but cars can get to cafe if needed and car park at rear.

Nice place to stop off on a bike ride. We enjoyed the food and service but it was somewhat spoiled but this awful cyclist who kept farting and shouting ' wind assisted'. He clearly liked his own joke but my lady friend was not impressed and the smell was repugnant.

My rambling group arrived here after a six mile walk. We were served delicious, inexpensive food, very quickly.

Net’s is a great place whether you just want a snack or want to treat yourself to a wonderful piece of cake or go the whole hog and have a cooked breakfast. Ideal after after a walk along the coastal path. It’s great to have somewhere to stop come rain, shine or even snow.

Tucked away on the Marshlands walk pathway, this great cafe is a must stop off for walkers and cyclists

Lovely place, clean with friendly staff not to mention delicious cakes and dogs allowed as well. What more could you want.

Just popped In on my break makes the nicest bacon and sausage barm on the planet !!, lovely friendly staff, deffo going again when I work here 👍

Have been hearing good things about this place from friends but only just managed to venture here today! What a fantastic setting - totally off the beaten track but on a fantastic cycleway/walkway so ideal for a refreshment stop. Basic lunches such as sandwiches, toasties, jacket potatoes and a wide selection of cakes (some homemade some not - the bara Brith which was was amazing!). Reasonable prices too. Will definitely be back, hopefully on a sunnier day to enjoy the outside space and views!

We use this cafe regularly as keen bike riders. It’s lovely having a good hot drink and sneaky cake when we nip out to cycle up and down the Wirral and Chester - we’ve had chats with fellow walkers and bikers which breaks up the journey. Lots of space for children to run around while you take in the views.

After a good walk along the marsh side, what could be nicer than a refreshing drink of your preference and a good slice of carrot cake at the lovely Net's, I was privileged to know Net's mum and dad. There can't be many strangers to this area now, but those who are must be delighted to come across Net's coffee shop, both with a warm welcome and a wonderful choice of food and drinks on offer.

We were completing a 10.5 mile walk starting at Parkgate along the Wirral Way.

We passed the cafe on our way north towards Thurstaston on the Wirral way, we thought we would call on the way back after our cycle ride, what a good idea that turned out to be. Although only having snacks and drinks they were both well received. The carrot cake was particularly good. Be reminded that food stops being served at 3pm.

We love Nets as the starting point (and end point) for our cycling trips. The group come from all directions on a Sunday morning. We meet for coffee/tea and some have breakfast. We build up quite a hunger out cycling and it’s great to come back to hot chocolate and the most scrumptious cakes. The staff are brilliant and service is superb. Perfectly placed for a walk along the marshes, some bird watching, great for families.

Overall v good. Stunning location and no shortage of space if you turn up with the kids or even a pram or two. Never had a problem getting a table as there are plenty, and loads of room to sit outside when the weather is good. Service is good, staff are friendly, cakes and food I've found to be excellent - and getting better if anything.

The staff are always so lovely and welcoming and nets breakfasts are the best, will 100% be going back!

Excellent views from what is really a cyclists and walkers venue, but it has been discovered by all sorts of visitors. Food is fine ambience is good.

Popular with cyclists and walkers, this out-of-the-way marsh-side cafe serves great baked potatoes, tea and coffee. And the home-made cakes are wonderful. Sit outside and watch the birds on the feeders. Recommended

Lots of cyclists here Lots of conversation Excellent full English Polite staff Clean and tidy Highly recommended 10/10

A beautiful location right on the marshes. A great stopping place whether you're walking or cycling. Great for coffee, cakes, breakfasts and light lunches. Seating inside and out. It will quickly become a favourite place.

Have been visiting Nets since it opened a few years ago and have never been disappointed. Great breakfasts, service and clean surroundings. Can get busy of a weekend with cyclists.

Called into Nets Cafe on cycling day out. What a pleasant surprise. Excellent coffee and cake. Large slice to keep the carbs up for long cycle. A brilliant place with great staff. Recommend to all.

Great place to visit on your ride back from Chester - cakes to die for. Great outside dining and very friendly staff.

I love trying new places but I was stunned to realise that this coffee shop was less than ten miles from home and yet felt like I was on holiday. We parked in a lay by and walked along the cycle path although parking is actually available at the coffee shop. The views across the marshland to North Wales are stunning. The coffee shop has ample indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside as we had our little dog with us. The menu was typical cafe fare with jacket potatoes, sandwiches, paninis etc. We really enjoyed our lunch and our walk. Can't wait to visit again.

Stopped in when riding, reasonable prices and really good cake selection. Coffee machine/style could be updated though.

This cafe does the best breakfast, and so reasonable. Staff are very helpful and always pleasant. Nothing is too much trouble. The setting is lovely and on a nice day you can enjoy your meals outside in the sunshine.

We called in when walking along the marshes.Clean, basic cafe offering reasonable priced sandwiches/cakes. We had breakfast baps & teacake. Staff were quiet & I personally prefer someone who chats but will still call in again when walking.

We regularly ride as a family along the bike path to different destinations. This cafe has been our favourite stop for two years. Wether it be a hot drink or a stop for lunch.Today we stopped for breakfast. It was delicious and cooked to perfection. Our children are always made welcome and also our family dog Rufus. Staff are very friendly and because of this we will always stop off here when we are out on our travels!:)

Stopped at this lovely, friendly little cafe, yesterday while out on a bike ride.Food excellent & staff very helpful. We enjoyed paninis, salads & one of our group had the gluten free toastie option. Fab cups of tea all round too. We sat outside in the sun, but indoor seating was also available.Will return & recommend.

Visited this café yesterday with my husband on a bike ride. The panini and toasted sandwich were nice but the salad was none existent a bit more salad would have been nice. The cakes were delicious but the coffee was not very nice.The views from the cafe are breathtaking.

Excellent hub for cyclists, walkers and families. Always a warm welcome and excellent cakes!!I meet my cycling club there every Sunday, as do many other clubs, always a friendly atmosphere.

Nets cafe is located on the marsh with beautiful views over the Dee estuary its very friendly and massively popular with the cycling community and walkers, the service is outstanding with very friendly staff and reasonable prices. Seating inside and out to suit the weather, disabled access to toilets and cafe, also highchairs inside for the wee ones, the breakfast menu and sandwiches are great but the cake is to die for, by far the best i have had, seems to be homemade and not any rubbish from the shops, all in all worth a visit you will not be disappointed

Very handily-situated for walkers and cyclists on the coast path,with good views out to the marshes and the Welsh coast.Plenty of seating in and out-doors.Good and friendly service.Though the quality of the hot drinks is not as good as in some tea and coffee shops,this is reflected in the low prices;and an excellent choice of cakes at good prices.

Nets is a great café for walkers, cyclists, etc. and is becoming increasingly popular. The standard of food and service is excellent with ample seating both inside and out. Breakfasts and cake highly recommended.

Great little cafe and the cakes are wonderful. After a lovely walk or cycle worth stopping off for a drink, even worth just venturing to the cafe to enjoy the coffee and sit enjoying the wonderful views. Picnic tables outside also plenty of seating inside for rainy days. Well worth a visit.

Excellent food and cakes great staff very friendly the cakes are a must. And the cooked breakfast say no more

Great little stop off point overlooking the dee marshlands and views of north Wales you can sit inside or choose the picnic tables outside it can get very busy especially at the weekend as the cycling people use it a lot as do the ramblers and bird watching community the menu is simple but always a good selection of cakes sanwiches and cooked breakfast

Good cafe to aim for if cycling from North Wales to Wirral. Very popular but not open on Mondays Fine views to North Wales coast from outside seating

Lovely coffee shop along the cycle path 568 towards Neston one way or Deeside the other. It is a clean place with snacks and drinks as well as toilet facilities. It seems to be a regular stop for cyclists like myself however if you are out walking, or just fancy a coffee then it is a great place for you too.

Good simple food serve cyclists, walkers and birdwatchers alike. This place is key located on a cycle path running alongside Burton marshes, providing great views, with inside and outside seating.Good food and great cake, are served by friendly staff.

Good coffee shop, not but limited to just coffee! Nice location with views across the Dee to North Wales, great place to meet before going for a bike ride. Good value food and drink selection on the menu. Friendly staff and good service.

3 adults and an enthusiastic dog walked along a road to observe the birds when we found the sign for the cafe. Had hot drinks and cake which was so nice that we went back the next day . This time for sausage baps. Even managed to buy an extra sausage for the dog

Lovely snacks cakes and beverages. Friendly service with clean comfortable surroundings. Plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. Lovely views over the marshes to Wales. Great little cafe.

...then there is way off the beaten track...This place could be the latter, it isn't exactly on a busy route. It is, however on a popular cycle route along the marsh side, between Neston and Chester.Finding it requires a little bit of local knowledge, or a sat nav, but don't let this discourage you, its well worth the journey.The food is excellent, good value for money and there is a wide selection. There is always people there when we visited, with the added bonus of seats outside to soak up the English ( or Welsh, as you are right on the border) sun.It's clean, the staff are inviting, there isn't anything not to like about this place. A recent addition of new toilet facilities add to the appeal.It is a good place to stop on a two wheeled exploration, or if you are the four wheeled explorer then there is opportunity to park the car.It is also round the corner, sort of, to Ness Gardens so there is more to explore once ou have over indulged...Definitely one to visit.

Went for ride on our new bikes across the Dee from connahs Quay over to Neston and planned to stop for a cuppa at Net's cafe as recommended by other cyclist's..was not disappointed. Loads of seats outside, great views and places to park bikes. Spotless toilets. Indoor seating area and very good menu from coffee and cake, soup and sandwich and great lunch menu, all reasonably priced. Very pleasant staff. Also this was a Sunday afternoon and loads busy...very popular indeed. Well worth a visit. We both had coffee and Tiffin cake, excellent and homemade.

Little gem of a place in an idyllic location overlooking RSPB mashes and fantastic views over towards the north wales coast lovely tea n coffee and snack hope to visit you again very soon

On a good or bad day this cafe offers tremendous views of the Welsh hills from Connahs Quay to Point of Aire.Nets offers great value breakfasts and tremendous afternoon cakes.The location is stunning!!

This is a walkers and cyclists cafe on the Dee coastal path. Decent food (sandwiches, cakes, baked potatoes), reasonable prices, room indoors but best outside if it's warm enough. They provide some gluten free options (you can park five minutes away) Would be pleasant to go there after a trip to Ness Gardens, which is less than a mile away.

Have called in a few times, staff always pleasant, great place to sit outside with cup of tea, (or shelter inside - depending on the weather) Decent prices, spotlessly clean. Toilets nice and clean.

Lovely food, pleasant staff, great location and views on a sunny late summers day. Highly recommended

Little gem of a place recommended to me via word of mouth! Lovely staff, peaceful location and safe to leave bicycles whilst enjoying a selection of coffees, cakes and meals! Staff were friendly and helpful and customer base is decent members of the public! Highly recommend!

Fantastic place for cyclists walkers or anyone. Perfectly placed on the cycle path, staff friendly, food freshly cooked, breakfasts delicious. Just great food, a must visit !!!

Friendly staff who make nice coffees and serve a variety of cakes and treats with lots of seats both indoors and outside. Attracts a variety of people including walkers and cyclists. Busy on a Sunday in particular but never rammed! Local tip: If you're looking for a second hand bicycle, check out the notice boards inside as lots of local cyclists advertsie their bikes on there. :)

Very useful stopping place on Wirral coastline along Burton Marshes. Plenty of room in the large garden area for bikes/prams. Lovely indoor room which was popular even on a lovely day. Menu is sandwich( in all their incarnations) orientated though they do all day breakfasts too. Very friendly,helpful staff.If you're really only passing through the cold drinks are all in a dedicated cabinet inside to choose from and there's an ice cream/ lolly ice freezer too. Looks as though a brand new loo block ,with disabled access, is almost ready , though the ones in the barn are spotless and fully functional except for disabled access. I looked it up onGoogle to check for closing days, cafes on Wirral are often closed on a Monday, and the only info I could find was via a Facebook page which stated that it was open from 9 am until 9 pm every day ! I queried this when I was there and they knew nothing about a FB entry but they deinitely close at 5 pm in summer and 4pm in winter,

After walking from Parkgate we were ready for a good cup of tea and a piece of cake. The café was spotless and served a lovely pot of tea. My friend and I had a fruit scone each. I was a bit disconcerted that all the scones had sugar on the top, something I have not come across before. I asked if they had any scones without the sugar on but they said no. I chose one with as little sugar on as possible as I just find it too sweet. The scones were full of dried fruit and cherries, again, a little too sweet for me. I would agree about the toilets, only one toilet for ladies which if the café is busy would not be sufficient, also it is outside in a portakabin. I presume it is a temporary measure and they will eventually build new ones. The location is the selling point for this café a stones throw from the marshes and new cycle way.

Net's coffee shop is a hidden gem amongst Burton front/mere. I've been coming here for some time now and watched it flourish. Seating is mainly outside but lots inside too. You are surrounded by beautiful views of Wales and sounds of the countryside. To get to Net's cafe you go down lots of little country lanes, where you find Burton front, one end has the boardwalk across to Queensferry and the other end you will see a sign for the cafe. The food is delicious and wholesome. Plenty of it and very reasonably priced. My favourite is bacon, brie and mushroom pinatti which comes with a side salad. You can choose from a wide variety of cakes too. Good selection of teas and coffee, my only gripe here is I'd prefer the coffee a little stronger. Staff are really lovely, go out their way for you to make sure you have a pleasurable experience. Don't let this place pass you by if your visiting our little Wirral.

We live quite near to Net's cafe & go there quite often . Lovely food, friendly staff, & nice surrounding views. Just a nice stroll along the Wirral Way & a good drop off for bike rider's.
