The Crossing Point Cafe in South Lakeland

We visited for breakfast whilst passing through the area, the cafe was full (always a good sign!) and we were pleased to get a table. There was a good menu with lots of choice for veggies and vegans as well as plenty for meat eaters. I had avocado and chickpeas with poached eggs which was tasty and generously sized. Hubby’s breakfast ciabatta seemed to contain all sorts as expected. Coffee good too. Will visit again when next passing through.

A lovely cafe serving delicious freshly prepared food. The vegetarian breakfast ciabatta was gorgeous and very filling. What a lovely combination with avocado, chickpeas and vegetarian sausage etc. The breakfast ciabatta (with meat) was also nicely presented and enjoyable. We are so glad we paid a visit - easy to park outside in the pay and display carpark too. Will definitely return!

What a great little place. Friendly service and delicious breakfast. Great atmosphere and the story of how Elodie’s came to be is so interesting. Will definitely be back when on the area

A little gem. We were so fortunate to find Elodie's in Kirkby Lonsdale. It is dog friendly so we could take our little dog with us. The staff were really friendly. Really enjoyed the great atmosphere and great food. Will definitely go back. Can't recommend highly enough

Superb coffee and great service but OMG, the Victoria Sponge cake was so light and yummy it was off the scale. I quizzed the chef who said they have a commercial oven that cooks their cakes to perfection. Well worth diverting if you enjoy amazing cake!

Food was delicious, atmosphere great, doggie friendly. Staff where attentive. Loved the decor. I would certainly go again

This gorgeous cafe was so accommodating for our little family. Despite limited space between tables found us a space to park our pram so our newborn could stay sleeping. Had two of the breakfast sandwiches with coffees and loved them. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. Would return in a heartbeat.

Great place for a relaxing coffee and cake after a long and muddy dog walk. A really warm welcome and a bowl of sausages for Bruce , our springer and we loved our coffees and Yule log and hazelnut and chocolate cake. Will be first choice when we are next in the area.

Superb experience. Neat and cosy establishment where a friendly warm welcome awaits. The couple running the place are friendly and professional. The food is tasty and served fresh and great value for money. will definitely be back there when in KL again. Well done - you could teach most places a thing or two about the basics.

Lovely little cafe. They were very busy when we went in to escape the rain and grab lunch but managed to squeeze us in. Service very attentive and fast to say they were so busy. My spicy chicken burger was lovely.

Visited twice within three days!!! Fabulous staff, fabulous food - well worth going be it for brunch, lunch, or just a coffee.

We went to Elodie’s for breakfast on Friday 13 October and for lunch on Saturday 14th. We ended up there following a bad experience at Lunesdale Bakery. Every cloud…! My partner and I are vegan and there are lots of options. The food is SO good and the staff are incredibly lovely and welcoming. They look like they love working there and nothing is too much trouble. The decor and atmosphere are fabulous too. Off there again for breakfast tomorrow and Monday before we leave for home.

Decided to call for brunch and a walk in Kirkby Lonsdale as we were going for a meal later on on the evening. Attentive and friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere, lovely decor. Food was excellent, tasty and not too expensive. Look forward to going again. Highly recommended.

Visited on a whim whilst travelling back to west yorkshire. Mainly to stretch and feed the baby. The staff were lovely and attentive. The room was great, the food was amazing. Perhaps the best eggs benedict I've ever had. Everything perfect. I'd highly reccomend and would definitely visit again.

5***** - Only 10mins off the motorway, wonderful fresh food, fantastic friendly service, great wines! If you are like me, fed up with expensive, poor quality and often dirty service stations, this is a great option. Well worth the short 10 minute detour, off junction 36.

Lovely family brunch before we set off on our adventures for the day. Chicken burgers were a hit with the boys and the bacon sandwich was scrumptious. Bread rolls are amazing! Highly recommend.

Called in for coffee and cake. Friendly and quick service. Recommend this cosy place. Meals look good, but didn't get to try them.

Been meaning to review since January....Called in as looked a lovely cafe from the outside. We weren't disappointed. Lovely cosy ambience fires lit in the cafe ,comfy seating and nice decor. Felt a cross between a cafe and wine bar. Food was delicious , had paninis and chips . Staff friendly and hospitable. Great place to stop off if on the way to the Lakes and Kirby Lonsdale a very pleasant surprise which we usually drive past. Will definitely come again.

Fabulous breakfast, full of local products. The sour dough toast was amazing. The coffee was great too. Really friendly staff who welcomed us and the dog - he even got a sausage too! Great experience- shame I didn’t have room for those fabulous looking cakes!

Lovely location and cosy interior. Dog friendly but quite small inside so tricky if it's busy. Great coffee, bacon sandwich and caramel slice. Only downside was that, as it was busy, the service was a bit slow. Think we'd been forgotten, but worth the wait.

Solid 5 out of 5 Excellent place to visit eat at All the food locally sourced and home made cakes loaves etc are amazing!!!

I have just had the best scone with jam, cream and butter I have ever eaten! It just melted in your mouth - amazing. My husband had the fruit loaf which was toasted - it was devoured. This lovely little gem of a place sells...

We saw previous good reviews on trip advisor so decided to visit. We weren’t disappointed. As a group of six we needed a bigger table which was arranged with good humour. The food was great and the service was good. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing . Salmon sandwich with a lemon dressing with chips, vegi breakfast and a sausage and bacon sandwich (3 of us). All really tasty with a lovely coffee . Definitely recommend.

Lovely owners. Great hand made cake. Nice ride here much better than devil's Bridge. Sit in the shade .

Good location on Market Square, really nice couple running cafe. Very Covid aware but also a welcoming atmosphere. Coffee was excellent and the home made cake very tasty indeed

Visited yesterday and what a treasure it was. The cafe was at the square in a great location. On entering we were greeted with a very warm friendly welcome. The decor was fresh, modern but still very quaint. The owners chatted happily away to us....

We were so excited about returning to Kirkby Lonsdale, our first trip out since lockdown restrictions eased.My husband had been yearning for a Crossing Point breakfast for weeks. This morning I joined him and had the same. It surpassed all our expectations - it was amazing!We left with a huge slice of chocolate cake and two bottles of wine too. The wine selection is brilliant and there is a bottle for all budgets and tastes.See you again very soon!

My friend and I where very wet from a walk down the river on a soggy May Friday, we were met at the door by a cheerful chap who showed us in, what a lovely friendly cafe with top class food and a great day time menu. Something for everyone. The wine looked amazing too, but had to drive, had a coffee instead it did not disappoint. Will return soon. Top Class, made a wet day very .

Enjoyable late lunch on our way to the lakes- Liz had the BLT which she enjoyed & I devoured the All Day Breakfast sandwich in Sourdough bun - all very taste . (& COVID safe added as we are still in this social distancing mode at time of writing)

Excellent,cosy, friendly staff, lovely food and licensed if you fancy a drink with your meal. Will definitely be going again.

Warm & oh so welcoming!We have always enjoyed our annual visits to the Crossing Point when in Kirkby Lonsdale.This year we were welcomed by one of the new owners who has a wonderful passion for what they do.The homemade soup (amazing Cauliflower & Hazelnut!) with sourdough bread followed by a delicious festive sandwich was a perfect end to a muddy walk.Definitely dog friendly, a bowl of water straight away with the offer of sausages too.The wine list is extensive & varied, staff are happy to point you in the right direction.Do not miss out a visit to the Crossing Point when in Kirkby Lonsdale.

Great to be back here! Popped in for lunch with my Grandaughter. I had the turkey sandwich special which was fabulous. Plenty of delicious turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and a pot of gravy, oh and some fries! Very filling! As always staff were lovely and attentive. (There were more fries before I took the photo!!!)

Coffee was great! Breakfast ciabbatt best I've had Andthe French appale cake was amazing Lovely fire and atmosphere staff are lovely highly recommend

We visited as a family today for lunch. I had the big schnitzel sandwich, my wife had the bacon and brie and our daughter had the chicken nuggets. The food was fresh and very tasty and all locally sourced as I understand it. The staff were very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. Certainly not a cheap and cheerful establishment but not pretentious either. Really great food with excellent customer service. We will be returning soon.

Lovely feel to this place. Very friendly family atmosphere. Cosy with excellent coffee. Didn't try the cakes but they looked amazing and were going down well.

What a great little find as a stop-off travelling from Scotland to Harrogate Very friendly welcome - all CV19 safety measures in place Had a really nice light lunch - we shared a soup and a tasty sandwichWill definitely be back to KL and back here again

Little pricey however the food is presented nicely. Varied choices of sandwiches/cakes/coffee. They follow covid regulations.

Stopped off in Kirkby Lonsdale on our way home from a family day out. As it was after 3 p.m. we struggled to find anywhere serving hot food. We finally discovered the Crossing Point and received a warm welcome. After sanitising our hands as requested, we were soon enjoying delicious food from an interesting menu, which catered for vegan, vegetarian or meat eaters like ourselves. Local sausages on sourdough bread went down well as did my smoked salmon and poached egg kedgeree. The nine-years old with us said the homemade soup was the best she had ever had. The service was excellent and the all the staff were very friendly. Well worth a visit.

We received a warm welcome from all the staff today for a quick break in this cafe. Drinks and toast were fine. Good conversation with the newish owners (November 2019?) about some good local walks. We will return here again. Highly recommended.

Great cafe. Friendly, welcoming with excellent coffee and cake. Highly recommended. Went back for more coffee after a 14km walk! Well worth the extra steps.

Amazing place fantastic service nothing was too much trouble, food was amazing definitely recommend this place and will definitely be visiting again , the fish finger sandwich was the best I’ve tasted

I absolutely love the Crossing Point cafe. I popped in on their first Saturday since reopening and everything was perfect - from the delicious food (the tea loaf is to die for) and coffee, to the service with a smile. You can see how hard they have worked to get Covid secure and still be warm and welcoming. I will definitely be back and have already recommended to loads of friends who are planning trips to the Lakes this summer. A must visit!

We were on a day trip and the menu caught our eye. We were not disappointed and enjoyed a delicious brunch. I had the full English breakfast with sourdough bread. The sausage and bacon were especially very tasty and high quality. They even did a child’s portion for my daughter. As a family we also had the veggie ciabatta and a sausage sandwich. The service was excellent and we were made to feel very welcome. Reassuringly we waited outside fur a table to become available and we sanitised hands on entering. We will definitely be returning.

My husband has been shielding since March until yesterday so was understandably quite nervous going out for lunch for the first time in ages.We waited at the door to be shown to our table - we had booked in advance.As soon as we entered we were asked to sanitise our hands.I ordered beetroot hummus with goats cheese which was served with skinny fries, hubby couldn’t resist a fish finger sandwich again served with skinny fries. I had a glass of house white whilst hubby had a coffee - he was driving.The food was fabulous, the atmosphere great, and service superb.Above all else we felt safe. All precautions re Covid-19 have been taken.I really can recommend The Crossing Point without reservation.

The delux hot chocolate from the crossing point cafe so make sure you pop in for an eyepopping experience I definitely recommend it
