Very misleading ! There is a wonderful lake but this can only been seen if you sit outside! As the weather was cold we sat inside and it could of been any transport cafe in England. Not enough staff lead to 40 minute wait. Tables were left uncleared and could see in to washing up area which was a real mess. We were so hungry that the breakfast and burger tasted ok. Sadly will not be going back!

Went here for breakfast with friends on a Sunday morning where we were the only customers there. Food was mostly ok if you like anemic sausages and scrambled egg you could smash a window with. When we were overcharged and questioned it, I was called a ‘bitch’ by the waitresses mother. Finally got the difference back, plus a free attitude problem!

Discovered during lock down but only just had a chance to actually recce. The gentlemen running the cafe where really helpful and welcoming. It's perfect as a pit stop for our bike rides. Lake side views while you drink tea and eat cake. Will be returning. Absolutely recommend if in the area, even if just fancy a cooked breakfast!

Who would have thought that just a stone's throw from main towns this idyllic setting exists. The Pondwood Lakeside Cafe should be a 'must visit' on everyone's list. Fantastic food, fantastic service, fantastic setting. Friendly and welcoming. I cannot praise this gem of an eatery enough! Don't just take my word for it, go and experience it yourself.

Special night with 15 tasters of diabetic friendly foods. Each made on site, exciting and delicious. Attention to detail is second to none. Heading back there for breakfast today.

Today Saturday - my hundredth trip to Heidi’s cafe. Normally first class. Today at 10.00 am salad - yesterday’s i assume as soggy and inedible. Jam doughnuts - normally fantastic, burnt and tough. What is happening , will stay away for a while now - shame

Eliane is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, the beautifully designed interior sets the tone for a warm and inviting experience. The attention to detail in the decor creates an atmosphere that feels both stylish and comforting. The food? Impeccable. The mixed vegetable quiche was simply incredible—rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The selection of fresh vegetables to accompany the meal is a standout feature, offering variety and vibrancy that elevate the whole dining experience. But what truly sets Eliane apart is the staff. Incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, they ensure that every visit is nothing short of delightful. Their commitment to excellent service makes the experience feel even more special. Eliane is a rare find—one of those places that leaves you planning your next visit before you’ve even finished your meal.

The best place for a hamburger. We moved out from Ascot 9 years ago and each time we come near this place ,or even if is not that close , we have to stop to get a hamburger . This is the only thing we miss , since we left. The best place ever.
