Secret Garden Cafe in East Lindsey

Ordered 2 all day Breakfasts, 2 cakes and 2 coffees. The Breakfast was perfect, cooked to perfection with all quality ingredients. The cakes were fresh and delicious as were the coffees. Shame it’s not local to us. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

5/5 for me, called for lunch today, jacket potatoe with a large coffee, very friendly staff, great food, great prices, so glad it’s reopened,going to be back again soon 👍🏻

Surprised that the cafe was so quiet at a lunchtime. My first choice was unavailable as they had run out of mushrooms! Opted for a jacket potato with cheese, which was quickly delivered, but I was disappointed that coleslaw was on the plate with the salad and cheese, I hate coleslaw and expected it to come in a little container so I could give it to my husband. The jacket potato was fine apart from that. Hubby had a tuna and cheese melt which he enjoyed, but we had to wait for cutlery which was ridiculous considering the cafe was almost empty! Very disappointed and it could be so much better as it is in a prime position in Louth.

15 of us turned up without booking and this wonderful place welcomed us in and gave us a great breakfast service. We really can’t thank the wonderful staff enough. The cafe is clean, the food is great and the staff are friendly and capable. It was the perfect end to our visit up north

lots of good reviews led us to try this place for breakfast. it was bright and airy, and nicely decorated, but noise travelled so hard to have a conversation till we moved to the other side of the room! The service was just so slow, there was only 1 other table being used, but we didn't get our food till at least 15 minutes after them. The food was very disappointing, dry and overcooked egg and bacon, and tasteless mushrooms and sausages. I wouldn't bother again

It really is secret - hidden away above the Cooplands bakery. I'm so glad I found it listed in Tripadvisor and decided to give it a try. I wanted a break from the hordes of people in Mablethorpe, so headed to Louth for some shopping. This is definitely the best cafe I have found in Louth for breakfast. The cafe was spotlessly clean and I had a table that overlooked the shopping street. The ladies who served the breakfast were polite and well-spoken. The English Breakfast was cooked perfectly and came with a free pot of tea. (The tea pot poured easily without any spillage too, unlike in many places.) My only small criticism was that the plate was a bit small for the size of the breakfast. The bacon was so nice I that I couldn't resist wrapping up the second slice and taking it home to make a bacon buttie for later. (Shh! Don't tell anybody!) I think I'll be going shopping in Louth more often in future!

My wife and I called in on Monday lunchtime for a drink and a bite to eat. The café as very clean and was obviously following Covid procedures. We each had a ploughman's lunch and a drink, which looked and tasted lovely. It was simple but wholesome food, nicely prepared and we felt very safe visiting and eating here. The staff were lovely and we would certainly call again.

This is a Great secret in Louth....friendly staff..always clean and good Covid measures in place. Had the cooked breakfast with a free cuppa and was excellent value and well cooked and good quality especially for the price. Would recommend a visit if in Louth.

Have had full English breakfast with drink as a deal which is excellent value. Also had bacon bap which again was excellent. If you want decaf coffee they will do this and you can have got milk if you wish. The staff here are excellent, always welcoming and friendly. It is upstairs so could be a problem for people with mobility issues. However, it is worth a visit.

Upstairs so not good for people with mobility issues. Friendly staff, pleasing atmosphere and great vegetarian food. Tea from a teapot that didnt cover the table with tea. An altogether pleasant experience.

I often take my mum here for afternoon coffee on a Saturday. It's clean and staff are pleasant with a good choice of snacks.

We called in here for lunch. Not been here before and first time in Louth. The service was very good and quick. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We had sandwiches and toasted sandwich all of which were very tasty. We enjoyed the visit so much that we did visit again later in the week and found everything as we did on our first visit. The premises were very clean. So too were the toilets.

Had a lovely lunch here, first time we have been. The restaurant is lovely and roomy and clean, there was someone cleaning all the time. If you don't mind the stairs you will have a really nice meal.

I had a quiche salad and my wife had a tuna salad. Both excellent. 2 decaf coffees as well. Very clean cafe and welcoming and friendly staff. Very reasonably priced. Will go again. Recommended.

Every Saturday we call for tea and cake . It’s clean with nice staff and lovely custards with tea foe two.

Reasonable baked potato with chicken and mayonnaise ,not over generous portion but ok for a quick lunch while shopping friendly staff and good tea,

We used to come regularly, but unfortunately the service and particularly the portions have declined to such an extent that we will not visit again. The café started off very well, but another place in Louth (a national chain) provides just as good food, with much more generous portions and far cheaper.

This is a good place for either coffee and cake or a light lunch. The food is freshly prepared to order and brought to your table. Prices are very reasonable.

We called in to this cafe mid-afternoon for a pot of tea. It is situated above a bakery (with an array of tempting cakes) and is accessed by stairs. The room itself is divided into three areas: a large tabled area at the front and a smaller area in the back shared with the serve yourself style servery.

Reasonable prices, nice atmosphere. Some vege options (menu on their website), access is up stairs from inside Cooplands, and there is a step between the seating area and till area of the cafe. It does not get too loud or busy even at lunch time, and there is music playing quietly in the background.

I can recommend The Secret Garden Cafe for breakfast, I've been here a few times and its always been good.

Super friendly, excellent service, really well priced, thoroughly enjoyed our coffees and cakes/scones - thank you.

Well worth climbing the gentle stairs to this lovely fitted out " secret garden" cafe excellent fresh food and spotless clean, impressed liked it.

The service would be slow for a snail , I only ordered s cheese melt it took forever to arrive and was mediocre when it did , a member of staff apologised for the wait as they had busy rush , surely a cafe should be able to cope serving sandwiches of a lunchtime

I often meet friends here for a coffee or light lunch, the staff are always very friendly and helpful. I would recommend the beans on toast 😊 a favourite of mine.

We've been to a few of the Secret Garden cafes now, and this lived up to the standard. Breakfast for 2 for just over £10 - bargain! Lovely staff too; very polite and efficient.

Tasty food and good cheap drinks that dont break the bank to feed a family, would reccommend to others.

This is not a secret garden but a lovely cafe

Visited here with the hubby on our travels - have lots of good food offers available. Nice spacious cafe with delicious baked potato / cakes etc. We had soup and a roll with coffee on a special offer Very nice

Welcoming cafe with good coffee and fresh cakes daily. Lunches quite delicious. Toasted fruit loaf particularly good.

On entering the bakery underneath we noticed the sign saying cafe upstairs....so we fancied a cup of tea so went up. Expected to walk into a small tea room type cafe...but we walked into a large well decorated clean very welcoming area. The food counter was on your right which had lots of fresh sandwiches cakes etc etc. The lady that served us was very friendly and helpful. I had a pot of tea for 1...but they actually not only give you a pot of tea but also a jug with hot water init so i got 3 cups of tea for £1.62 !!!!! Also had toasted tea loaf.....very delicious.

Stopped off here whilst shopping in Louth. Nice light airy room, good choice of light meals and snacks. Enjoyed tea and a cake.

Situated above the bakery this cafe is a gem. Was getting fed up with paying over the odds for a light lunch or even just a snack and coffee. This little place has an uncomplicated menu, fresh food at a VERY reasonable price. There are also deals on throughout the day

Let's get a cuppa and a bite to eat my hubby said while browsing the shops in the lovely Louth..we looked around and saw a bakery type shop with a large photo of a ploughman's sandwich it looked delicious brown large seeded on top bread roll filled with cheese pickle lettuce and tomoto ....that's it we said we will have one of those and a cuppa we said ...it was a special offer ...we entered the shop and was told the cafe was upstairs ....very steep stairs at least 15 to go in ...lovely cafe upstairs very pleasant smiling staff fetching the food out ...we went to the counter ..one lady serving who was quite slow making hot chocolates..would be better with 2 staff on.

Visiting Louth on 10 April 17 found this lovely place for lunch, we ordered our food at the food bar and paid but the lady serving had a problem putting the order in the till and seemed a bit confused. We went to a table and looked at the menu and worked out we had been overcharged by £1.20, when the same person that had served us came out to clean the table next to us I said I think we have been overcharged but wasn't given a receipt to check. She walked away and started telling another member of staff, I overheard her say what does he want a receipt for, no one ever came back to explain if I had been overcharged or not. Such a pity about this because I will never go back and have mentioned it to a couple of friends, it was them that said I should write a review.

Discovered the Secret Garden Cafe by chance but what a joyous find! Service fast, friendly - generous portions of food and drinks - very affordable and good quality. Wil be back.

Visited today always impressed very busy but staff were very calm and collect. Serveing everyone saying that food wouldn't be to long ,all staff very pleasant and friendly.Cafe very clean and tidy staff always tidying and cleaning.This is a must to visit when in Louth may it be market

Have eaten here a few times and always have had a good meal or snack.

we stopped here for lunch and were impressed with the meal. They serve good, basic, cheap food. The staff are very helpful and pleasant. The coffee is good. Very busy, but didn't feel chaotic

We visit the Secret Garden at least once a week. The fruit toast is lovely as is the coffee. My son loves a milkshake!

Stopped here for a quick bite to eat, good choice of food. Friendly and helpful staff. This cafe is upstairs so no suitable for wheelchair access.

Very conveniently situated in the town centre. Name is a bit misleading though, there is no secret or garden! Spacious, busy, efficient and friendly. Menu is short and simple. Prices are sensible.

This was our first visit to this cafe, and it won't be our last. We opted for a cooked breakfast with toast and tea. At under £8 for two, it was excellent value for money. The cafe was very pleasant, clean, bright and airy. Toilets were clean. The staff were friendly. I don't think wheelchair users could visit as there are too many steps. There seems to be a good variety on the menu too.

A large cafe on the first floor over the top of Couplands bakery. Clean and tidy and VERY brightly-lit. Self-service and food was OK but nothing to write home about. Exceedingly cheap so very good value for money.

Clean and airey. Staff polite but a bit slow. Food well presented but the salad garnish was a bit mean. Would go again

took family to secret garden @ 80a Eastgate Louth...

We were walking through Louth looking for somewhere to get something to eat quickly and never even knew Cooplands had a string of cafes! It was lovely, great value for money and our lunch tasted so fresh! What made the visit to the cafe so enjoyable was the lovely staff. The woman behind the till was training another girl up I think but they were both so chatty, polite, helpful and genuinely nice people. The service was excellent and a lot better than many other similar cafes I have visited. They are a credit to the company. I will not hesitate to eat her again when in Louth.

On holiday in Lincolnshire and stopped off in Louth for lunch and found the Secret Garden Cafe. My wife and I both chose a different salad and they were tasty, colourful and beautifully plated and the staff were so very welcoming and pleasant. We didn't have time to look around the shops after lunch but returned a couple of days later and again lunched at the Secret Garden. We both chose different salads and they were superb. There were various hot dishes available but as our visits coincided with a mini heatwave we really didn't need any hot food. We were also tempted by the fresh cream cakes which were delicious.

I've been here around 10 times and wouldn't normally have considered writing a review for a café had I not read some of the nonsense on another comment.

The cafe looks nice, clean and airy, however there was no choice of coffee other than milky or not, no cappuccino, latte etc, the beef and onion sandwich was poor, the beef looked like it had spent all dy languishing in boiling water to the point that all taste had been removed and the onions were pale and inciped like they had just been chopped and warmed up in the microwave. On the plus point the cake was nice, but what a disappointment - we will not be returning.

The Secret Garden Restaurant above Cooplands bakery is clean, friendly and value for money. After 2pm a coffee or tea with a cream cake is only two pounds. The main meals and snacks are very tasty and good value.

Really good breakfast , good value for money .Staff very friendly and helpful .Nice lunch menu ,will be giving it a try next time in Louth

Surprisingly large cafe above the shop. Very well designed. We called in for breakfast, very good and value for money.

Called in to the Cafe upstairs called " The Secret Garden" for a quick lunch while visiting Louth. Not as quick as I would have liked, as there seemed to be only one member of staff running the whole thing through lunchtime !

Our old Clarks shoe shop transformed. Wonder where the rocking-horse went :-)?
