Syke Farm Tearoom in Isle of Wight

We went for walk to lake Buttermere and discovered this tearoom on the way. Such a cozy place serving great dishes and coffee. I had the lamb stew and loved it! Husband had a pie, that was great too! Alas, we were too full to try out the very tempting cakes or icecream.

Loved this place. From arriving to leaving, it ticked all the boxes! The staff are all really friendly and helpful and the decor is modern but has kept a rustic feel. The food is delicious. They have a wide variety of savory options, pies, ice cream and cakes and everything looks tantalising as shown in the photos. They even cooked the bacon, on my egg and bacon sandwich well done on my request. A must visit if you're in the area!

Today was our second visit to Sykes Farm Tea Rooms and my memory didn't lie to me . It was a beautiful day but we sat inside with our little dog to get a break from the sun . We sat on one of the four tables down stairs but there is also seating upstairs and some wooden bench tables outside . It is dog friendly which is great and honey our cavapoo was gifted a dog treat and a cuddle from one of the staff . We both had the steak and ale pie with mash and mushy peas and it was delightful.Very tasty and a good portion size too. My boyfriend also had a scone with jam and cream followed by cherry ripple ice-cream ( homemade on the farm ) he said both were great 👍. We probably should try the larger tea room in the village but we enjoy it so much here that I think we will always return . We parked in the carpark just up the hill which is run by The National trust but there is also 2 car parks in the village and some road parking just outside the village but it's limited and deffo first come first served .

A great selection of homemade produce, they cater for every taste and need. Lovely setting, friendly staff with a very good coffee and good selection of food.

Always a great place to stop off after a walk around Buttermere..On this occasion we took the family and with 3 of us getting the Pulled Pork Yorkshire Pudding Wrap and 2 getting the Lamb Stew..All the food was gorgeous with great friendly service in lovely surroundings.As usual afterwards we got the homemade ice creams that are always amazing in this fab cafe!!

Great offerings from pies to cakes and luscious ice cream. We had goat cheese and sweet potatoes pie which was one of the best pies we ever had. Lime, lemon & cashew ice cream was a nice discovery. Apple pie ice cream didn't disappoint. Ginger and carrot cake tasty, maybe a bit dry, needed the icing. A bit pricey overall. Great location after a walk around Buttermere Lake. Very busy at peak time. Lovely staff

Tasty homemade cakes and delicious food! Yummy-looking ice cream. Seats inside and outside. Free WiFi. Highly recommend visiting here after you have completed Buttermere lake walk - to re-fuel and have a well-deserved rest.

We came here three different times during our stay in Buttermere and were glad we came each time! The food and service are excellent, and staff are very friendly. This is the perfect spot to finish a hike around Buttermere Lake, especially if you need to warm up or stay dry, as the trail approaching is beautiful. We also enjoyed take-away one day for our hike, which was great.

Lovely cafe, great food and ice cream and really friendly and helpful staff. I forgot to ask for GF bread for my sandwich, but the lovely staff were kind enough to swap it for a GF salad instead , all with smiles! Will definitely visit again.

Visited last week after a long walk and had the most delicious vegetable soup ever! We also bought some pies to take away for dinner and they were amazing! We had a steak one and a goats cheese and butternut squash one. Go on… treat yourself! Best pies we’ve had in a long time!

We had been for a walk around Buttermere in beautiful bright sunshine, but very cool. We really needed a drink so called into Sykes Farm Tea Room. We are so pleased we did. We were a bit early for lunch but when told they had home-made lamb stew with dumplings we decided to eat early. DELICIOUS. The portion side was just right and the coffee was good too. My husband had mint sauce with him portion, but to be quite honest it wasn't really needed it was so tasty and there was mintiness in the dumplings I think. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. We did like the look of the amazing cakes but were too full for that. It can get busy, especially with people buying takeaways to eat whilst on their various walks so just be prepared for that. There is limited seating downstairs, but there is some upstairs and on a nice day there are lovely seats outside. If I go to that area again I will most certainly call in here. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I might of said this a couple of times, but honestly this place is a true hidden gem, Come across it after 9 mile hike with my wife around the local area. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, venue was very clean well finished. Plenty of food options and could honestly say 10/10.

We had a snack lunch here with friends and family. We also had 4 dogs between us, but that wasn’t a problem. We sat upstairs. The food arrived quickly, mainly bowls of soup which were all delicious. I didn’t have a coffee as they only had full fat milk. A good walkers retreat. Cosy and warm on a cold day too.

Stopped in for a coffee before walking around the Lake, and have been here for breakfasts and snacks in the past. Really cute cafe with nice decor and free WiFi.

Popped in here for a late lunch after a hike up to Whiteless Pike. The cafe is so much more than a cafe. The meals are superb and as you order you can even see the lovely chef preparing the food and looking out smiling at people. I had the vegetable soup with a cheese scone which so so divine I could have eaten it again if I wasn’t so full. My husband had the Scotch egg which came with a lovely salad. Hot chocolate with marshmallows & a slab of chocolate was also to die for. Lovely happy cheery staff made the visit even better. Thankyou ladies for a great lunch x

Lovely little tea room. But very meagre portions. Cappuccino in a very small cup. Half a bowl of soup in-fact out of the 2 bowls purchased one didn’t even have half !! Tasty but disappointed with value for money. Probably go to the other cafe in the village next time

This has got the be the best tea room I have ever been to !! The staff were extremely friendly even give my dog a homemade doggy cheese scone , the pies were exceptional just what we needed after a chilly walk around the lake not to forget the vegan and gluten free options for cakes which were just heaven !!! Keep up the good work guys

We visited Sykes for escape from torrential rain & winds, hoping for a quick sit-down to dry off and a coffee. Myself and my boyfriend live in London and are no strangers to cake & coffee shops - but Sykes’ cakes were unparalleled over those we’ve sampled in London. We had the coffee cake and the vegan apple and cinnamon. Both were absolutely sublime, and the apple & cinnamon was the best, most exquisite vegan cake I’ve ever tasted. If I could’ve purchased a repeat delivery subscription for that cake alone, let me tell you I’d have paid a fortune for it. Thanks for surpassing all expectations!!

Fabulous Tea Room with wonderfully friendly staff, and the most divine vegetarian pie I’ve ever had! I have to admit that I really wasn’t keen on the idea of a Curried Cauliflower Pie - but I was hungry and thought if I don’t like it at least I’ll have mashed potatoes to line my stomach. But I couldn’t have been more wrong - everything from presentation to taste and texture was superb! My son and daughter-in-law also enjoyed their food options too. We did eye the cakes (which looked amazing) but there was literally no room for any more food! Highly recommended and definitely worth visiting.

Lovely place in a great location with lovely staff. We come here every year and it’s always lovely. We got giant Yorkshire pudding wraps off of their winter menu. We will be back in summer for some delicious icecream. Keep up the good work!

Once again, another delightful coffee, yummy homemade cake, and lovely friendly staff! It's not my first visit and certainly not the last 😋

Soup and pies arrived so hot ( microwaved?) they were inedible for ages. One pie ( meat) very dry, one pie wet and mushy ( veggie). Really disappointing as this used to be my favourite cafe in Buttermere.

Ordered a pie and 2 bottles of water. No one else was in there to be served. Sat there 25 minutes waiting for the pie despite the pies being on show. 4 customers came in and were served straight away. I asked where my pie was they had forgot ? Why ? The lad said pie sh$t! They weren’t actually busy, god knows how they would cope in a busy tearoom or cafe. I asked for a refund as it was beginning to get darker and the weather was turning. We politely left. Shame really as they looked lovely pies but I’ll never know.

Delicious food in a comfortable atmosphere served by friendly staff. What a great way to relax after a day wandering in the Buttermere fells.

As you drive into Buttermere the Old School House is on the right and Syke Farm Tearooms are on the left. We came across this lovely tearoom (adjoining Syke Farm) as we finished an anti-clockwise walk around Buttermere. The cafe is run by a group of welcoming ladies (from the farm) who bake the wide range of delicious cakes & scones, etc. They also provide hot lunches (filled Yorkshire puddings, soups and pies etc). The cafe initially looks quite small inside with limited seating but there is a large mezzanine floor with plenty of room. We only stopped for coffee and scones (which are served warm from the oven & were excellent) We’ll be certain to make sure we stop there again on our next visit.

Nice little tearoom for when finishing the Buttermere circuit. Good choice of cakes and pies. Staff friendly.

Nice lunch selection of soups and sandwiches and gluten free options with tasty gluten free bakery items. Nice staff too.

£25 for two coffees and two pies. Pies were reheated in the microwave so pastry was rubbery and chewy. Wasn’t given the option if we wanted this. Wasn’t handed a menu on entering and seem more focused on hurrying orders out. Cake selection looked good, but again, no prices listed. Disappointing considering the prices.

Great find in Buttermere Friendly warm welcome received, shame we only wanted coffee and cake today! Cake was delicious and my latte was excellent muchly needed on a very wet day ! We ended up taking home two homemade steak pies which were absolutely scummy well meaty and tasty highly recommend a visit !

Visited for lunch after a stroll around Buttermere. Very pleasantly surprised to have several vegan options including two soups (with vegan butter for the bread) and four cake options. Very friendly staff.

We were looking for somewhere to have a coffee and a bite to eat after walking around Buttermere. We were glad we found Sykes tearooms. The pies looked amazing. So we ordered the Steak and Stilton with gravy and mash. The taste was amazing well worth having. People were coming in and ordering pies, some seemed to be regulars.

I loved it! We only stopped for drinks as we were going on a hike but staff were all kind and the cakes did look very nice! I stayed in the campsite and I wish I had came here for breakfast one tome!

Spoilt for choice for breakfast and lunch, don’t go hungry as I did as you will order too much due to the fantastic presentation of the various options. Service was great, the young lady we were served by made us feel very welcome and bought the food and tea out to our table. Good experience all round!!

We travel a lot and it always involves trying to find the best local ice cream. This tearoom has by far the best ice cream we have ever tasted! We also got a couple pies & slices of lemon and carrot cake which were all delicious too! If only we could get this ice cream in Cornwall! Highly recommend this tearoom after either a hike or driving honiston pass.

We found this tearoom on social media which is great and ventured straight there for breakfast after parking up in Buttermere. The food was fabulous especially the breakfast pie, which hubby had, I just had beans on toast. It was a lovely setting with two very friendly ladies. We purchased cake to take away with us and would definitely go back.

An amazing little gem tucked away on a working farm near Buttermere. Really good coffee, fantastic homemade cakes, and fresh, made on the site ice cream. A perfect place to start, finish or pause a walk in the beautiful countryside.

Pies so good my husband wanted to take one home with him! Lovely ice cream made from milk from the farm’s own herd. Top notch coffee. Would recommend a visit if you are in the Buttermere area.

Great spot for breakfast or lunch and dog friendly! Tasty breakfast (full English and vegetarian we fantastic), delicious pies and sausage rolls and tempting cakes! Wifi was great too considering we were camping with no signal :) (no photo of the pies because they were wolfed down on a hike so quickly :))

Lovely ice cream and the food is good. Only problem was it was busy and there only seems to be one toilet which is for men and women to use, had to queue for quite a while.

What an absolute gem! Sandwiches scones cakes ice cream pies sausage rolls quiche! All homemade quality stuff. Highly recommend, we visited here after bagging Haystacks and Fleetwith Pike to refuel. Ice cream also tasty super creamy. Highly recommend! Dog friendly too!

Bought some chocolate bars to keep us going until we returned to buy lunch at the cafe. Three of the four bars we bought were out of date. But unfortunately we noticed these when we had return home later that day. Annoyed as the chocolate...

I had the vegetarian Haystacks breakfast and my wife the Red Pike (english) breakfast- both were very filling and delicious. Highly recommend the coffee here and if you are around lunchtime or later the home made ice cream is a real treat

With being diabetic I was desperate for food.We ordered 2 sandwiches on a baguette,1 ham,1 ham & cheese, plenty of filling with a side salad but I thought they were on the expensive side at £9 each.Tea was brought with extra water,always a good idea.Mine...

Called here after walking around Buttermere Lake .We had ice creams and a slice of coffee cake which were all tasty -Great setting with nice outdoor seating

Lovely cafe, dog friendly too. Had a lovely lunch. Lovely friendly staff. Would visit again. Good value for money.

Can't fault quality of food but the prices were just plain greedy. My partner had a vegetarian pie, which was £6+ and was asked if he would like mash and gravy or salad with it. As the assistant did not say 'at an exxtra cost'...

Initially we missed this place on the beginning of a loop around buttermere dropping in another good tea room. However we saw this on the way out and decided to pop in on the way back and was stunned by the initial greeting & friendless....

Lovely calm sunny morning. Stroll around Buttermere followed but a coffee. We both love Buttermere and walk around every time we come to the lakes. We always finish our walk with tea or coffees here. While I marshalled two soaking wet labradors my wife went...

I was staying at the Syke Farm Campsite for a weekend in April, so a visit to their tearoom was a no brainer. What a wonderful decision it was to visit though. We arrived too late for breakfast, which felt like a shame initially as...

Tearoom specializes in pies, and they are very good. Lots of different pies, all with excellent home made pastry. Option of types of mash or chips. Plenty of gravy. All very substantial and excellent quality. Excellent service. Dog friendly.

We popped in for an early lunch after a very pleasant walk around Lake Buttermere and has just missed the breakfast rush. The pastry and pie fillings for voth the vegan and meat versions we had was very good and the fillings were tasty. Would...

The atmosphere is warm and inviting. Perfect place for something to eat after a walk. The goats cheese and caramelised onion baguette was delicious. Would visit again. Yum yum yum

We dropped in following our little walk. The menu was really good and we chose the curried cauliflower pie. Truest amazing the flavour. The sandwiches were absolutely delicious. We then took away some cakes. Yummy is an understatement. Highly recommended.

Wow. What a find. Such a warm welcome from the staff and the tastiest pies around. What's more, they welcomed us in with three Border Collies. Plenty of seating for small or large groups. Honestly, we cannot recommend this place enough. We will be back...

We always stop here when we visit Buttermere lake. It is a well run tearoom, with much to offer including ice cream.

A snack and drink for two over fifteen pounds.A bit too much.After a brisk walk around Buttermere,we came upon this pretty cafe,which proved to be a lot more expensive than expected.

Called in on a wet windy day ,had a lovely warm welcome, I had my dog with me the lady give him a dog biscuit , I ordered a bowl of soup to warm me up ,it came quickly and was very nice , also...

I bought a hazelnut flavour and a rum and raisin double ice cream. Both of them tasted of nothing whatsoever. You couldn't tell the difference between them. The ice cream was very chewy as well. I wondered if they put some kind of artificial thickener...

On our visit to Buttermere on a very wet and windy day, we were immediately drawn to this tea room by the cosy vibes it was giving from the outside. We were greeted with perhaps the friendliest waitresses we have ever met - the tea...

Stopped off during our walk in the local area for coffee and cake and it was amazing, lots of choices of cake and scones including several gluten free options. The main meals looked great too but unfortunately we didn’t try these. I would highly recommend...

Having completed the delightful 2½ hour walk around Buttermere, we stopped at Syke Farm tea room for some refreshment. Mostly seating outside – a few tables inside. We enjoyed coffee, lovely cake and an ice cream. A good place to stop and only a short...

Two visits to Buttermere on this years trip to the lovely Lake District. Each visit starts with a cup of tea and slice of home made cake, a walk around Buttermere lake and then a really nice lunch, all of course at Syke Farm Tearoom....

We stopped here after a walk around the lake. It was exactly what we needed! The pies are incredible, we had beef and stilton. There is loads of beef packed in and just the right amount of Stilton. You get a choice of flavoured mash...

This was recommended to me by a local, so I popped in for a coffee. Sadly, I'd already made my lunch for the day, otherwise I'd have been sorely tempted by the wonderful looking food on display. Settled for a slice of cake with my...

Love it here. Amazing staff, beautiful food and in a gorgeous setting! The cafe itself is so nice and all the cakes and options are delightful. We will be back!

We stopped off for a pie, cake an coffee before a walk around Buttermere and absolutley loved it! The service was friendly and helpful and the setting is lovely. The steak pies are wonderful. Really meaty with lovely crisp pastry. The selection of deliscious looking...

Good choice of snacks and decent coffee. Returned for generously filled sausage sandwich and coffee. Clean, nicely decorated and a good choice of ice creams.

This is an amazing little tearoom with a brilliant selection and serves AMAZING ice cream! Marmalade one was by far the best!! Ideal for a stop off if driving round Honister or Newlands pass! Q

We stopped here after a morning of hiking. Found a table upstairs, very pleasant surroundings. Plenty to choose from on the menu, we opted for baguettes & pies. What can I say about the pies, absolutely delicious, best pies we have had! served piping hot...

This small café-style eatery is located on the B5289 about 60mtrs from the junction of this road to, or from, the Honister Pass, and a minor road heading north through the Newlands Pass to the northwest of Derwentwater. The farm also has a campsite for...

Just had a lovely week walking in the lakes and had the pleasure of stopping at this little gem of a place with my folks. The pies were delicious (no soggy bottoms here!) and the ice cream was to die for. I got one with...

Slick, efficient service. Nice cup of tea, beautiful cakes. Outside tables. A welcome stop after circumnavigating the lake.

Today I brought my 90 year old Mother who has multiple disabilities for lunch at Skye Farm. All the staff went out of their way to make this visit a success and made an old lady who loves the fells very happy. Oh and the...

We walked to Buttermere from Honister and stopped for lunch at Syke Farm. We both had the chicken and leek pies, one with caramelised onion mash and the other with cheese and chive mash. They were just what we needed to fuel our walk back....

Oh boy, if you like pies, then this place is a must!!! Home made, great selection of flavours, served with a choice of five different flavoured mashes and then smothered in lashings of gravy!!!! Just gorgeous I went for steak and Stilton pie, with mustard...

Situated on the outskirts of Buttermere, opposite the church, parking available, v friendly and cheerful staff, large menu and food all locally produced with a stunning selection of cakes, the ice cream wheel is a novelty. Many thanks, we will return.

Friendly staff and lovely coffee. The food selection was good and the pies and sausage roles were very filling and delicious. The best cafe in the area by miles

This is everything I want a rural cafe to be. It is perfectly situated in the centre of Buttermere village, in the farm yard on the lakeside path. After a circuit of the lake, we sat outside and enjoyed the pies (top notch!), sharing slate,...

We found the other cafe and had lunch, which was great. Though this is better. We took away pies and cake. Find the right one in the village

We called in for a bite to eat after a walk around Buttermere lake and as a group of 6 there was plenty of space for us upstairs. The staff are exceptionally efficient and friendly. They have a great range of very tasty pies which...

We had to visit twice in one day to sample as many things as possible. Everything was delicious, pies, soup, sandwiches and cake. Service was friendly and efficient and will definitely be back.

If you visit Buttermere, it’s a must you visit this cafe. It’s the best place for service and food. We live in Cornwall and lots of cafe’s but I have to say this is the best I’ve ever visited. Thank you we will be back.

We come here every time we are in buttermere! The food is delicious we had a vegan sandwich with a homemade tomato and rosemary soup and a sweet potato, goats cheese pie. Both were brilliant! Thankyou to all the staff. Your customer service is superb!...

Proper sausage sandwhich, lovely homemade soup, nice piece of homemade cake to follow. Whatever time of year we come here the staff are friendly and professional. It's just a top cafe.

Such a lovely spot and nice service staff. But I have to say that the sandwich I had was one of the worst I had in years. They use part-baked supermarket baguettes and cook them in the oven. Mine was not fully cooked. The filling...

Lovely place to drop into for a bite to eat. We'd walked the very popular circuit of Buttermere and we're feeling peckish. We ordered the sub with meatballs and a chicken broth. Both were delicious! The sauce on the sub and meatballs was scrummy and...

We stopped here at the start of our walk for a hot drink (and to use the ‘facilities’). We had had breakfast only an hour before so didn’t have anything to eat but the cakes and pies look amazing! Everything is cooked/baked on the premises...

We have been visiting Syke Farm tearoom for years. We called in a few times again recently while staying in the area and this place just gets better. Lovely pies, bacon butties and cakes - we had breakfast there last week before walking around Crummock...

we did 2 laps of Buttermere and as we were a bit peckish, called in to see what there was. Remember visiting one time and getting a fab icecream from here. Plenty of room upstairs, good choice on the menu inc vegetarian/vegan options- we had...

Skyes tea room is a fantastic pit stop for anyone after completing the circuit of buttermere. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting buttermere.

We stopped at the tea room, after a walk around Buttermere. We hoped for a nice cuppa and cake. When we entered the shop we were confronted with an amazing selection of cakes, and hot pies. We all had a different pie, with a different...
