The Filling Station in Allerdale

Had a fantastic breakfast here on the way back from holiday. Highly recommend to anyone in the area, especially the breakfast pancake stack!

Great biker hang out staff Great and food amazing

We called in for a late breakfast on our way through Keswick. We ordered two large full English breakfasts and two coffees. The food was good, with two fried eggs which were cooked to perfection and were very tasty. The Cumberland sausage served was made with quality meat from a butcher. The coffee was amazing too. The staff were also very friendly and professional. We will definitely call back to sample more of the food the next time we are passing.

The filling station is a must visit if travelling through Keswick, situated on the outskirts, just as you enter down into the town, is a regular stopping place for cyclists/motorcycles & car clubs... Through the summer months I regularly visit, especially on the bike nights for a pleasant evening, and great food!.. from breakfast to dinner, they cater for all 😀

Fantastic food, good motorcycle cafe. Lots of memorabilia.

Nice atmosphere but the black filter coffee was just bitter and rubbish. Didn't stay for food.

Lovely venue, decent food but the young lady serving was not as friendly as the usual lady there .. plus no eggs benedict till after 11 am was very disappointing .

Good service , Great food 👍just what you need before climbing Skiddaw .

Always call in at least once when I'm in the area. Great food, great service especially if you like pancakes for breakfast.

Really great staff and I loved the food, Dog friendly which is always a bonus

Great staff, great food and go on a Friday, it's bike nite from 5.. love it ❤️

Food here is excellent, plenty of choice. Great breakfast/brunch menu. This was our first visit in a couple of years, as the cafe has been closed for a while and has new owners now. The pancakes were fantastic, I had mine with crispy bacon and maple syrup. Really good. Can be very busy at weekends and is popular with bikers so pick when you come as it’s quite small. Outside seating is good in fine weather. One of our favourite stops when in Keswick. It’s a 10 minute walk from town through Fitz Park alongside the river. The only downside here is parking, there are 3 or 4 off road spaces, or you have to park on the road, again it does get busy. Staff were super friendly and chatty as well.

Pull up on your bike and have a fantastic meal . The staff are wonderful. The vibe from like-minded bikers makes the place feel like a community .

Called in for a lovely breakfast and a cuppa... Made welcome by all the staff, highly recommended.

Great motorcycle cafe, with loads bike pictures and things

3 hungry people on the way to crooklands. So glad we popped in for breakfast 😁. Yummy and great value for money 💰

Good food great brue ladies wear a bit warm but veary cheerful

Smashing roadside cafe in the lakes. Biker friendly.

Legendary brunch pancakes and full english . Biker friendly and very welcoming

Nice bikers cafe, seating inside and out. The road is a little noisy (traffic) if you're sitting outside.

Really enjoyed my breakfast apart from the toast. I like my toast to be crisp & browned 😋

Really great biker cafe serving 5 star quality food (we had the all day breakfast) at very fair prices. Super friendly and helpful staff and a cheery welcome crowd of customers showing off some cracking bikes.

Very nice place. Good variety on the menu. Food and service was excellent.

Was recommended by a few locals to try here for breakfast, was not disappointed. Good size portions, delicious food, friendly team, cool decor, what’s not to love? Reasonably priced too, 2 x small breakfasts, coffee and a coke - £25 ish 👌

Great food, nice price and service!

Great place for bikers and a good spot to park up and go shopping just be sure to support the cafe.

Great service, food and atmosphere

Lovely place to eat good! Dog friendly Might get really busy on a sunny day 😃

Perfect burgers, milkshakes, and big and fluffy pancakes. We found out that we were the first to get the homemade patty in their burgers and hope that they carry on doing them this way. It was obvious from the appearance that it was a proper homemade patty and in a different league to any recent burger we’ve had in terms of taste and texture. Brill staff and great cost/quality ratio. Same sort of price or mildly cheaper than everywhere else but soooo much better.

Really friendly staff, and a good menu

I am always sceptic when I see “American pancakes” or milkshakes on any menue since we moved. I can say without a doubt that the pancakes here are some of the best I have ever had!!!!! And certainly the best I have had outside of the US! My daughter got the milk shake and was a little nervous when she ordered it because American milk shakes always have ice cream and milk and are thick, this one exceeded expectations!!!!! While the food was out of this world! It was the atmosphere and the people that were working that made this experience so notable!! From the moment you walk into the front door you are welcomed so warmly and with so much kindness!!!! If you are traveling to or through the Lake District this needs to be added to your place to go!

Quite disappointed with our visit today! First of all the service was terrible. Went into a dirty table and seats, I was passed a spray bottle and blue roll when I asked if the table could be wiped over. (I didn't actually mind this but it just got worse). Went to order our food and drinks and the couple 'serving' were more interested in flirting with one another rather than serving their customers. We witnessed other customers coming in to be served but the couple had sat themselves at a table oblivious to the people waiting to be served and when they eventually realised they were just giggly and immature. The young girl serving food from the kitchen had zero people skills, she just slammed the food down on the table like she was in a bad mood and didn't utter a word. The food is normally good here, it's our go to place normally but today the food wasn't even that nice either and overall our experience was just terrible. The toilet was also filthy and clearly hadn't been cleaned recently. It's massively gone downhill in our opinion and we probably wouldn't go back after today's experience. The problem is I think places like this don't really care about their local regulars because they have so much passing trade from tourists so if they have a rubbish experience and don't go back it wouldn't bother them cause there'll always be other tourists.

This place never fails to impress, I have been back 3 times over the course of my travels and I am always left completely satisfied

The big breakfast is possibly one of the best breakfasts I've ever eaten. All local produce cooked to perfection, the black pudding was especially good. Friendly service every time.

The filling station was a place I always wanted to go to when visiting the Lakes,Hubby had a hot dog with chips and I ordered Southern fried chicken fillets with Homemade chips,my Hubby enjoyed his food but mine was not very nice the Fillets were burnt or cooked in dirty oil,the chips were skin on and tasted like they was reheated. Not enjoyable at all,however I understand it's a favourite with bikers,just don't try the chicken fillets.

Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff, didn’t judge me when I asked for maple syrup on my sausage egg and bacon on pancakes with icecream and where very nice. Would definitely try here again. Food tasted amazing (I’m pregnant don’t judge my taste) the person I went with liked there waffle also and would agree it’s a great place to visit

Great ride out to The Filling Station Cafe. Excellent food at very reasonable prices, served with a friendly smile. Top that off with some biker talk- what's not to like! We'll be back to this friendly welcoming spot! 😄

Came just after 3(close at 4) kitchen not open. Such a shame as we came 40 mins out of route to try due to the hype. From 2 hungry unhappy travellers :(

Keswicks little Gem thats great for bikers as all made very welcome......

Great food and great service 👌🏼

Great food, great service 100% reccomend to anyone

Excellent food, fantastic staff and a great place to eat. Highly recommended

Biker friendly and excellent food and service, my favourite cafe in Cumbria,,,and anywhere else too.

Couldn't fault their full English. Good sausage and bacon. Very tasty.

Go here on a regular basis and think it's a great place, food is great, staff are excellent, they are always good craic and helpful. Can easily recommend this little spot as I know you could not be let down. Sorry I can only give 5* worth more. Keep up the great work and see you all soon again

We had a lovely walk and stopped for coffee, lovely staff, service was great, and coffee was good.

Great place, really friendly, turned up not knowing they were supposed to be finished for the day and they served me a coffee and cake without mentioning it.

Fantastic biker friendly cafe. Thursday evening was superb

Got here and had to wait to be served. By the time I was served they told me the kitchen was shut. If I'd been served when I walked in I'd have gotten lunch. Won't be coming back

It is a good place to have a decent meal.

Brilliant biker cafe and all persons cafe .

Nipped in before heading out on a day out and glad we did! Friendly service and food was excellent! Definitely would return when coming back next time!

Slow service. Hot food on a Cold Plate

Fantastic Food amazing atmosphere spotless clean the staff and the owner should give themselves a big pat on the back absolutely amazing experience big thank you will be back 😘

Great breakfast during a biking trip to the Lakes, definitely recommend. Great selection for vegetarians too 😊

Cosy relaxed place with chilled vibe. Happy helpful staff!

Excellent food and fantastic staff, very friendly and helpful. Can recommend the breakfast or burgers

We had such a nice experience here. We went in for a spot of late breakfast on a very rainy day. Our lil soaked pup was welcomed with loving arms. Super friendly and welcoming. I had the Berry compote pancakes and my partner had the full English and both had coffees. I had an oat latte myself. 10/10 service, atmosphere, food, all lovely! Will definitely be back. Milo says thank you for all the love and attention 💕

Very nice girls who will look after you, and great food too 😋

3 day trip up from London and we chance upon this gem. The welcome, the food, the service, the cleanliness, the staff. Shame its 290 miles away or it would become my regular stop for a top breakfast.

Great food and friendly service. Came up on the motorbikes visiting for the first time and will definitely return.

Good food, atmosphere and service

Lovely food and staff.. Will definitely be returning

Great Cafe & bonus Biker friendly. Just had the Cumberland Sausage sandwich & Tea. But the menu looked extensive & the cakes looked fabulous. Staff were very nice 👍

What a great little find. Super friendly staff and amazing food cook to order. Dog friendly and worth a visit.

Great food, good choice, great coffee. Staff excellent. All round 10/10

Absolutely lovely pancakes and waffles, both with bacon & Maple syrup. Very filling. Decor and staff were great! Limited number of café carpark spaces but plenty of free street parking available. Thought we'd try the place out but looking forward to fetching the kids next time! Plenty of seating inside and put. I can imagine that it gets very busy during the summer months.

Try to go whenever I go to Keswick, this time just me and Beth and two dogs! Food is always excellent especially the sausage sandwich!

Love this little cafe, good location, easy to park, really friendly staff, quick service, great food and fab hot chocolate

Proper cafe, with really friendly service. The full English is very good.

Visited twoce during our holiday and both times were superb. Excellent food and very friendly staff.Dog friendly. Thank you.

We called in a couple of times for lunch and breakfast whilst on holiday nearby and both were excellent. They actually did fried bread(a favourite of mine) with the breakfast, not seen that on a menu for years so big thumbs up for that! The place was spotless and the staff were very friendly. We'll definitely be going back next time we're in the area.

What a nice find. Staff were very friendly.

We stayed in a hotel nearby and came here for breakfast 2 mornings. Food was excellent and the staff were attentive. Great atmosphere and easy enough to get parked outside the restaurant.

Amazing food, top service with a chilled, relaxed vibe. Couldn’t recommend more.

Excellent coffee and helpful chatty staff

Fantastic food, bit pricey but worth a visit definitely

Great place to stop for breakfast. Reasonably priced and very good portions.

An iconic cafe 5* review. I waw travelling down to the Lakes to meet a,local friend for lunch and this is a great venue to eat and catch up.

Love this place. Difo comin back

Lovely place for a bite to eat. Lots of bikers use this place nice to see so many different bikes. If you're ever in Keswick and in need of food, this is a must food for most ages.

Visited for the first time today with our two dogs for breakfast.Ordered the pancake breakfast stack and bacon roll with a few sides ..pancakes were amazing ,good size portions and quality produce..friendly staff and nice atmosphere..we will definitely return.

Solid veggie breakfast on 31st Dec - recommended!

Awesome service and food. Definitely a great pit stop.

Wonderful smiley staff, great food. We will definitely be back again soon!

Lovely wee place and great meals great breakfast

Lovely full English breakfast and your able to add extras if you wish making it even more of a belly buster! Highly recommend.

Fantastic little place so warm and friendly. As well as being a dog friendly cafe, perfect

Would highly recommend this Cafe to anyone. The hardworking, friendly staff were happy to accommodate a large group of us and made us feel extremely welcome. The food was lovely and the atmosphere was great.

Such a wonderful place! We were a huge group of 30 and accommodated us so well and were very patient with us! Food was exceptional!!

Incredible atmosphere, super nice and hardworking staff. Can’t fault this cafe or staff members in any way. The food is incredible, the prices are very reasonable and the quality is worth every penny. It is definitely worth the short drive out of Keswick town centre to come and enjoy a 10/10 meal with 12/10 staff

Superb, they accommodated our large group and compared to another certain Wetherspoons in town, we were respected and treated as valued customers. If you want good food and great service, this is your place.

Fan-tabby-doosy. Big group of us came in and sorted us right out. Any missing sausages were quickly filled like our now fully satisfied bellies. The Filling Station certainly filled us with love.

Excellent little hideaway cafe Got a couple of breakfasts and didn't want some items on the list .so should have been offered alternative items or discounted food as turned out expensive.

Lovely little cafe just outside Keswick. Beautiful mug of coffee with nice choice of food.

Really nice food and a pleasant environment. Breakfast roll is a must after a long walk.

Popped on our way to Keswick The perfect start to a morning shopping.

Food was great, no complaints there. Given 3 stars as 1 member of staff (Grace) was really rude and ignorant, also sat playing on her phone at the counter whilst there was tables to be cleared.

Visited the Filling station on Wednesday, the staff were very accommodating with our 2 dogs and they made us feel really welcome. Food was amazing as ever, especially the pancakes 😋🥞

Great place to stop for a coffee with dedicated motorcycle parking nice on a cold day 👍
