The Cafe @ Manor Wood in Cheshire West and Chester

The pretty views outside on the patio area overlooking the lake make this cafe a delightful venue on hot sunny summer day or cosy inside on a wintry day. We hadn't been to the cafe since it was taken over. The inside decor has had a freshen up with comfy seating and lovely warm colours. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. We only had coffee on this trip, but the food looked delicious and there were plenty of homemade cakes. The caravan site is very nice for a gentle stroll around the lakes. The site itself would be perfect for a holiday and has an open heated swimming pool on site and is close to lots of amentities.

What a fantastic gem by a lovely lake. Fantastic food and friendly staff. Afternoon tea is home made and one of the best we have had. Highly recommended

Lovely modern dog friendly cafe. Tables well spaced out. Staff were pleasant and friendly. The food was of high quality and served quickly. Will be back.

We ordered a simple meal of beans on toast x2 & bacon brie & cranberry wrap. We were told 30minute wait which was okay cus the kids can play with toys. After 60minutes of waiting we asked about the meals. Told us their making them now and the delay was because they were under staffed. We counted 5 people working their, and ordinarily we have seen 2, so that was a lie. Other customers who ordered more complicated meals before us got theirs first and they only just decided to start making our food. 75 minutes in, the cafe was mostly empty and still no sign of our order. Another couple was waiting for 60minutes, saw another family who just arrived get their order first, and ask for refunds. Absolutely abysmal, it's one thing to feel cheated out of your money it's somthing else to feel cheated out of your own life.

Lovely spot by the lake , really peaceful watching the ducks and fishermen. Very friendly and helpful service, enjoyed a really good breakfast bap which I was allowed long after the cut off time for breakfast and much appreciated .Great place to stop on the bike , quiet country lanes for cycling ,perfect !

Brilliant find, we were staying at a cottage nearby and drove past the camp side and cafe. Large concrete visitors car park, nice deck overlooking the lake. Plenty of outdoor seating. Dog friendly. We had breakfast, very comprehensive menu and about 25% cheaper than most chain restaurants. Very friendly team of staff, food ordered at the counter and brought to your table. Good coffee. Cooked breakfast decent portions and lovely sausages in a roll. Definitely worth a visit, we came on the Sunday of the bank holiday and not too busy

I met three friends here for lunch, our first visit. A nice menu with lots of choice, we eat had something different and were pleased with our choice. Reasonable prices. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. We will definitely return

Popped out with a friend to try a new cafe we had seen, set within the boundary of a caravan park with good parking alongside a small lake. The setting is really nice and modern, unfortunately the weather was grim outside however the decked area looked great for the better days. We had already eaten breakfast so tried the coffee, which was freshly made and I had a Bakewell slice. Both were excellent, the cake selections all looked homemade and look forwards to trying more. The cafe is dog friendly and they can be taken inside and it looks like a really good place to stop off if your cycling too, there's plenty of place to prop up your bike and even a cycle rack. Looking at the menu the prices seemed mid range and there were quite a lot of staff in so guessing they can handle busy times however they had not long opened and maybe only 6 customers in whilst I was there.

We stumbled across the cafe after seeing a pavement sign and went for a light lunch. Lovely setting overlooking a small lake with geese and fishermen. Lovely sandwiches, all very fresh and great prices too. Would definitely recommend.
