New Cafe And Education Centre in Gloucester

Our grandchildren are spread across the country from South Wales to Kenilworth, so after detailed research on Trip Advisor, we decided to meet for a family picnic at this park. After lunch, we went for a long and challenging walk and returned around 4.15 pm desperate for a drink for the adults and ice-creams for the children. In fact, the thought of this kept us going on the steeper climbs! We were SO disappointed therefore to find the cafe was closed! Why build a beautiful new building and then close so early, in the middle of the school summer holidays? It was a real anti-climax to what, up until then, had been a really successful day. Please, please re-think the opening times or have signs indicating that there is only a short opportunity to purchase food and drink there.

Regularmente vengo a pasear a mis perros aquí y, a menudo, voy al café a tomar algo y comer algo. Hoy el personal era inútil y desdichado: absolutamente no había espíritu navideño a la vista y aparentemente no había comida disponible porque "no tenemos suficiente personal". Un poco extraño ya que yo era la única persona en el mostrador, nadie estaba esperando comida y había dos miembros del personal que tenían tiempo para una buena sesión de gemidos. Aquí se requiere un poco de capacitación del cliente, comenzando desde arriba con el gerente muy gruñón que rara vez puede sonreír y pasa la mayor parte del tiempo mirando a sus clientes. Si dice que sirve comida (y esto fue mucho antes de las 3 pm cuando dicen que se detienen), entonces debe hacerlo, una experiencia muy decepcionante. . . . . . . . .

Decidimos parar en la cafetería Crickley Park para tomar un café durante un recorrido en moto por los Cotswolds. ¡Un lugar hermoso, arruinado por una señora muy grosera del café antes incluso de tomar un café! No hay espacios para estacionar disponibles, así que decidí hacer estallar la bicicleta en un área para bicicletas (¡eso pensamos!), Adyacente al café. Después de desmontar, sin casco y caminar hacia una mesa, se abrió una ventana desde el café y nos gritaron que moviéramos la bicicleta a un espacio de estacionamiento. Una solicitud silenciosa hubiera sido suficiente, ya que no se apreciaba una humillación pública. Es comprensible que no nos hayamos quedado. Evitaría compañeros motociclistas, no es un lugar amigable en absoluto. . . . . ¡vergüenza!

Esto debería ser un buen café dada la excelente ubicación. Sin embargo, demasiado pequeño; el desayuno era normal en el mejor de los casos y tenían opciones limitadas dado un aparente fracaso en la compra de existencias suficientes para cubrir las horas pico, por ejemplo, el domingo por la mañana! Para colmo, el personal necesita capacitación en servicio al cliente: después del desayuno promedio (que tuve que preparar ya que todo lo que me dijeron fue que 'no tenían mucho') una simple pregunta sobre el helado en La oferta (antes de decidir comprar y unirse a la cola cada vez más larga) resultó en una respuesta corta y rápida de la nerviosa dama que trabajaba con el pelo rojo para "llegar al final de la línea". Es bastante vergonzoso delante de mi esposa, mi hija y todos los demás en el café. No volveré a ir a las horas punta de nuevo, lo cual es una verdadera lástima ya que este lugar podría ser genial. !

Mis amigos y yo gastamos mucho dinero en este café, y el hombre que trabaja allí por las mañanas, se mostró increíblemente grosero, pasivo agresivo y hostil, cómo él trabaja allí todavía está más allá de mí. Excelente ubicación, arruinada por este individuo. Nunca volveré.

Took a group of 43 to see the spectacular view across the Cotswolds at Crickley Hill. Some of my group visited the café, which is unfortunately run by a very rude and aggressive man. As soon as my group finished their tea, we left as quickly as we could. I have a complaint in about his behaviour with Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust. The view is stunning, but I'd avoid the café and take a packed lunch!

Went with the London Cultureseekers Group as part of a tour around the Cotswolds. We came here to see a fantastic view and to stop for a tea in the café, unfortunately the aggressive Café Manager took an instant dislike to us, he forcibly removed Robert, our group organiser out of the café and was bad mouthing him in front of other members of our group, highly unprofessional. Obviously this café is not interested in people coming in and spending money

Small cafe near car park on Crickley Hill which is excellent for a quick cuppa and piece of cake after a spin around one of the signposted walks on Crickley Hill.

Arrived at 9.40 on a Sunday. My girlfriend is a vegetarian and the only veggie option sold out yesterday. I asked if he would mind making a cheese toastie instead and he said no, toasties from 11am only. I said ah well and we left him to do nothing with his zero customers. Can't recommend here with such a poor service attitude.

Dropped in on Sunday afternoon, cold febuary day to find a queue to the door. Staff overloaded and not able to cope. Commented on the slow service and was told, by the manager, theres only one machine to make 2 coffees at a time, and if I dont like queing, dont bother coming on a Sunday. Expressed concern at his agresive attide and was told not to be rude. Will be taking his advice

Lovely walks for couples and families. The cafe has friendly and hard working staff. They serve some lovely local produce. The only things they could do to improve is not burn the coffee 😳! The toilets are metal and freezing aswell. But overall love coming here, and visit frequently

Great coffee, delicious cake, friendly and efficient service and beautiful views - what more could you want.

New cafe - service a bit slow but not a problem. Friendly, good snack type food (jacket potato, toasted sandwiches etc), good looking cakes and great coffee and milkshakes

Three of us had come along to look at the area regarding the limestone and it s geological history and when we saw the cafe we couldn't resist popping in and having some refreshments. What a treat. Home made cakes. Spotted the Rodda clotted cream from my home county. Unfortunately our plans included evening meal in a pub for a meeting two hours later so it had to be a snack and couldn't resist my favourite cake. Lovely staff. Very friendly and helpful. Hope to come back when backk in this area and explore the many trails. Loved the location

A new gem of a Café for Gloucestershire countryside provided by Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust. Buildings, including an Education Centre, have recently been refurbished. (Aug. '16) Inside plenty of seating; outside benches for those happy to 'take-out'. Good menu displayed on a blackboard opposite the entrance. As well as drinks the menu offerings include Breakfasts, Toasted Sandwiches, Baguettes, Salads, Jacket Potatoes and Ice-creams. Modern barista catering equipment ensures coffee does not take an age to make. This Café will brighten any visit to this wonderful Country Park. I shall be going back regularly.
