The Honey Pot Restaurant in Allerdale - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Love this little restaurant and pop in when we’re in Keswick. However, tried yesterday, Monday, and it was closed, that’s absolutely fine we understand it could be too quiet on a Monday to be worthwhile opening, it could be closed during January when it’s quieter or due to illness, the problem is there are no signs to say when it is open, we thought we may be too early so wandered around then went back, still closed. A simple sign giving opening times would be great Ps went elsewhere, nowhere near as good

Great for breakfast or brunch, very good prices! Very friendly staff! Nice and quiet, we found a little gem!

We had lunch here and the food was good and reasonably priced. The staff were really friendly, efficient and helpful. We were very pleased with the service and would visit again when in the area.

Easily accessible cafe that caters for all tastes. We visited twice for coffee, I was delighted to be able to have decaffeinated latte and Cappuccinos. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Excellent service, pleasant environment and good food. Visited twice during our week in Keswick and really enjoyed both visits.

Pleasant Staff and Efficient.We called in for a drink and a rest after a hectic walk.The staff welcomed us and we were served in minutes.The service was second to none and the cost was fair.The place is spotless and well serviced.Well worth a visit in the heart of Keswick.

Have used the Honey Pot several times when visiting Keswick in July. When my husband was confined to a wheelchair this was the only place that he could access and the service could not have been better. All members of staff were friendly, polite and professional. The food was always freshly prepared, cooked to order, well presented and value for money. This year I was on my own and received the same level of service as previously. Cannot fault the service I received and will definitely use again when in Keswick.

Stopped here for a coffee and a hot chocolate and then a toasted T cake. Staff very friendly and helpful. The place was clean and tidy. The only thing I would say is the T cakes needed be slight more toasted.

Called in earlier this week for a lite lunch and we weren't dissapointed in the least, their food is always fresh & well cooked. The young girl that served us was really nice and could have been more helpful if she tried, well done to all concerned.

Looks good from outside shame the older staff member didn’t reflect that, not welcoming at all. Food does not match price and more representing a cheap road side cafe than a really good looking eatery. Two toasties arrived warm not hot, the cheese in one had not melted, limp and not that tasty. The young waitress was very good though and deserves to be employed by a place that matches her attitude and helpfulness. Would I use agai no

A photo says a thousand words. 1 sausage cut in half in a bun costing over £5 I ordered a toastie which was meh and kindly presented burnt side down. Coffee was also meh Long wait - we appreciate the shortage of staff but it doesn’t justify the quality of food. I’m all for helping out local businesses, but give this one a miss, greggs does a better sandwich.

Spent a week in Keswick in holiday and had lunch twice in the Honey Pot. It does not open in the evenings. We variously had panini with salad garnish (who knew panini could be more-ish?), jacket potato, baguette and chips. These may not sound like adventurous menu items but everything was done well. Generous milk portion with your hot drink. Quick service by mostly young staff despite busy custom. Only one men’s WC cubicle and one for women/changing/disabled but very clean, as was the whole cafe. Bright and friendly place with a few outdoor tables but mostly indoors.

Called with my family last week and had a fantastic lunch, the young ladies that served us were first class and couldn't have been more helpful if they tried, I can't understand why anyone would want to complain about this establishment. Well done to management & staff - Thank You

We ate here after finding Jasper's full. Plenty of room inside but the atmosphere seemed dead. We ordered two English breakfasts, which were ok but had some strange items on them, including potato waffles instead of hash browns. Nothing particularly wrong with the restaurant but there are better places for breakfast in Keswick.

£ 9.95 is quite reasonable for a meal in Keswick and my pasta, salad and garlic bread was OK for the money, just nothing outstanding, and the pasta portion could have been larger, although it did taste nice. I'd say to people to try The Honey Pot if you want a meal for under £ 10, just don't expect anything fantastic. Another thing, some people have complained about the attitude of the staff. I had no complaints about the waitress or the owner, who seemed pleasant. Also with COVID cases rising again, the staff wearing face coverings is a good sign in a busy resort like Keswick.

Food was mediocre and took a really long time to arrive although it wasn't particularly busy. The three meals were brought out separately with at least five minutes gap between the first and last. Not awful, but pretty disappointing and I wouldn't go back again

Wow, after a lovely wander around Keswick, we decided to drop into the Honey Pot, more like the Melting Pot. Tea for two arrived, with one tea bag in the pot, my husband wouldn't let me complain, so we suffered with the very weak tea,...

We’ve been here before and always had good food and service and today was no exception. Portion size very generous.

Staff are terrible, asked what the soup was and told its on the board near the door and walked away, ended up with a dry slice of cake for £4.25 staff need sacked.

Attempted lunch in this cafe . Not even acknowledged by staff when we sat down. Waited 10-15 minutes . On seeing the waitress take somebody’s order after he arrived after us , we asked if she could take our order. The response was “ I’ll...

We were visiting Keswick and came across this little, cute place in center of Keswick. We decided to take a break and have a cup of tea. Place also had food along with tea and coffee. A good place for a snack or a cup...

Food wasn’t bad just edible major issue was just staff u could barely get a word out of and we’re just straight up rude and ignoring people simple please and thank you goes a long way

We found this tearoom around the back of town, but we’re not impressed. There are better places to take tea in Keswick.

I visited at the weekend, the scones were delicious, and the waitresses were lovely (especially the young lady who served me - she had brown hair and worked on Saturday afternoon), they were all very busy and very efficient. However... I was very very shocked...

Popped in for lunch. Had a caramel latte, pot of tea, bacon bap, and egg and sausage bap. Drinks were lovely and hot, and the food tasty. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Prices were reasonable. Will visit again.

Visited this establishment on our visit to Keswick and was pleasantly surprised by how nice it was. The tea and cake were delicious and reasonably priced. This restaurant insisted on wearing face masks which was the only negative.

called in for a cuppa and slice of fruit toast, very nice, the whole place nice and clean and very pleasant staff Thanks

Traditional coffee shop restaurant slightly off the Main Street Clean , friendly attentive staff ( young blonde haired girl ) Quality home cooked foods , good well presented portions Exceptional value for money. Grat cleanliness standards evident . First visit would definitely return.

My partner and I were visiting the Lakes and on our final day we were looking for a place to get a big breakfast before we began our mountain hike. Not many places were open at 10am on Sunday so we eagerly went inside the...

Stopped here for a quick bite to eat whilst exploring Keswick. Its a ‘no frills’ kind of cafe but the food was OK and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Pretty good value for money too.

We were just lucky to arrive just before closing to grab a quick lunch (2 x Toasted Cheese & Onions Sandwiches, served with side salad garnish) - and we could well have been arriving just as they had opened for the freshness and cheerful service...

Lunchtime Mon 6th Sept we entered the cafe to be greeted by a mature lady who appeared hot and bothered under her mask. Throughout the duration of the visit her attitude and customer service skills were shocking. How she is employed beggars belief. The food...

We have been here quite a few times and have had positive experiences each time until this week. My wife is coeliac and so we always ring to book lunch the day before ( as requested by the manager) so the food can be prepared...

Called with husband and French Bulldog for breakfast on our first day in Keswick. Dog friendly outside only but as weather was pleasant we were fine with this. Managed to get our order in quite quickly as place filled up both inside and out very...

We sat outside as we had our dog with us. The staff were very polite and friendly. Although we only had coffee and fruit bread toast it was delicious and reasonably priced.

A really lovely looking cafe that we stopped at for a late lunch. Food was really nice - we had a selection of Toastie and drinks. Problem arose when we came to pay. As couples we wanted to pay I. Lairs, and this did not...

The cafe was very busy when we turned up and as I am in a wheelchair it can often be difficult to get in places and can be made to feel like it’s an inconvenience having to move things to let me in. However this...

Bad food and worse service. One to avoid! They were arguing with another customer when we got there. They then got our order wrong. We ordered jacket potato with cheese and beans for the kids, and they brought it without cheese. They then started complaining...

Very unwelcoming, you could have cut the atmosphere with a knife. Shame as it looked a nice place but they need customer service training and waiting skills

Honey pot is a nice cafe and has potential to be one of the best in Keswick, however for £5 you can have a sausage sandwich, which is one sausage inside an overly large bread bun. Bless them they did try to make it look...

The lady who greeted us at the entrance was a bit wasp-EE—-thought she was in the wrong position for front of house.After just coffee we where pleased to BUZZ off

Visited this cafe earlier today looking forward to what looked like lovely food. However waited outside while the young staff seemed to take forever to clean the tables. We then sat for ages while they served someone who came in after us first. I then...

Attitude of the manager... Awful, rude and abrupt, making comments to customers which aren't appropriate. Food nice but slow service. Wouldn't go back ever. Plenty other places to eat.

Visited today - met by the rudest, roughly spoken and hard faced character I have ever had the displeasure to be served by! A total let down for what could be a beautiful place to eat and drink - decided not to eat or return...

This is a tea shop with quite a limited hot food menu, but has a wide variety of cakes, sandwiches etc, including a good range of gluten free options. Friendly and attentive staff and we never failed to get a table when we needed it.

With octagonal tables and rustic chairs the atmosphere is set. The soup bowls are so big you will be lucky if you have room for anything else! The soup is delicious, and so are the toased sandwiches, not to mention the various cakes on offer....

We went for breakfast and it was nice. They don't allow dogs inside (which in Keswick most people have dogs with them) so we had to sit outside, so our breakfast got cols quickly. Nevertheless it was nice and good value. The service was good...

I visited here today with my brother and sister all in 50's we waited 45 minutes before I went to ask where our food was .the young lads serving us was lovely and went to ask kitchen staff .I offered to take mine round to...

My partner and I stop in for lunch today Toasties are really good Staff very friendly and welcoming 😁

We stopped off at the cafe whilst in Beswick, the staff were very nice, polite and efficient. We thought that the food was nothing special though.

I’m feeling the staff have read the (not so good) previous reviews because I experienced a well run, safe and friendly service. Yes, old fashioned, but everything was as I ordered - hot drinks and tasty sausage and egg butties for me and hubby. Friendly...

We visited the shop yesterday only to be told to keep our daughter quiet by two rude members of staff. Coffee was also poor so overall a terrible experience and we will not be back.

4th in for breakfast just gone 9am, appreciate covid protocols but the female who greated us lacked a bit of customer service and came across a bit grumpy. Waited an age for our food, would have been nice if the coffee was still warm when...

The young waitress asked ‘have you used the NHS app to check in?’ Yes, we said, she replied ‘ show me your phone and prove it!!! The staff were horrible through out, do not go there for food or drink..you have been warned!

called in for a cup of tea and a tea cake, waited to be seated at a nice clean table, service with a smile (under a mask) very nice , thankyou

The waitress who came to the door was not personable at all she needs to learn people skills. I ordered a banana milkshake which was sour and tasted off the staff were good at changing to a hot chocolate. The chocolate cake was hard and...

I used to visit here quite regularly when I worked in the area, so on a rare trip to Keswick on Sunday my in laws and I thought we'd pop in on my recommendation. We waited outside, the Sergeant like waitress came out and told...

Went to the honey pot today and our visit was spoilt by a staff member who was very rude and shouting not only at us but at other customers. The staff member who served us was very pleasant but what should have been a pleasant...

Visited as a three some on the first day of the new QR Covid arrangements. The staff appeared somewhat overawed by these. Otherwise: 1 Clean and well organised premises. 2 All we ordered was well presented and of good standard. 3 Good range of menu...

As a NHS worker, I realise that during COVID you have to be careful about cleaning, social distancing etc. however I don’t expect to be yelled at and shouted at like a schoolchild. The sign outside says to take a seat at an empty table...

Popped in with my wife and two children today, and cannot recommend enough! The most notable thing is the restaurant is not covered in the black and yellow tape that seems to be everywhere, but you are still comforted by the obvious adequate space between...

Paramos aquí para un almuerzo ligero. Todas las precauciones de COVID en su lugar, escrupulosamente limpias. La camarera me preparó una papa horneada con pollo coronación sin lácteos especialmente, lo cual fue muy apreciado. Una buena selección de comida en el menú con una tabla de especialidades diarias. Mi otra mitad disfrutó de su sándwich. También había una gran selección de deliciosos pasteles disponibles.

Estamos aquí dos veces durante nuestra estancia de una semana en Keswick. Nuestra primera visita fue para el almuerzo, donde necesitábamos un calentamiento después de un viaje en bote bajo la lluvia. El joven que nos atendió fue excelente en su trabajo, amable y excelente servicio. La comida estaba muy caliente y abundante.Luego regresamos el miércoles para el desayuno antes de caminar hasta latrigg. El desayuno estaba recién hecho y muy agradable. La ventaja adicional si la oferta de ayuda significaba que podía alimentar a una familia de tres por 11 fue excelente.Esperaré volver la próxima vez que me detenga en Keswick para caminar.

Thoroughly impressed with how the restaurant dealt with the social distancing and cleanliness (considering how small the cafe was). Large variety of lunches, special boards, different teas & presses! Would return :)

Went here with my sister & mam, we had the afternoon tea great choice of cakes & delicious plum bread, scone & clotted cream, sandwiches could be a bit more bigger but it was all lovely will definitely be back.

We ordered the deluxe afternoon tea. It was amazing. Service was excellent and my other half insisted the young waiter looked like Vernon Kay ha ha see for yourselves. An amazing all round experience would definitely come back!

Lovely lunch! It was super busy so think service was a little slower than normal, but staff were friendly and it was all clean and efficient. The Cajun chicken baguette was home cooked and delicious!

Nice food. Quite a wide choice of typical cafe food. Family friendly, but as it is not a huge cafe and is currentlt setup for social distancing you may have to wait if it is busy.

Can't understand why this is so low in the rankings. Small but lovely cafe, serving basic meals, sandwiches and drinks, but of a very good quality and reasonable. The two ladies serving were fantastic and comical (in a nice way). The all day breakfast was great and available in different sizes, my wifes toastie was lovely as well. Worth a visit.

Came across this pretty little cafe restaurant while cutting through a small arcade in the centre of Keswick. Lovely staff, great service, spotlessly clean, plenty of tables. Enjoyed a lovely light lunch. Would eat here again if back in Keswick.

Llamado para café y pastel. Ambos fueron excelentes. Servicio amable y eficiente. Pero fue lo que siguió que fue excepcional. Estábamos de vacaciones en Keswick y mi esposa recibió un correo electrónico que decía que tenía que atender una llamada telefónica importante a las 2. 30 pm. Lamentablemente, no pudimos obtener una señal para nuestro teléfono móvil. Preguntamos en el Honeypot si había una asignación en la ciudad donde podríamos recibir una señal. La camarera no sabía de un lugar y pensamos que era ese. Pero cinco minutos después el dueño llegó a nuestra mesa. Ella nos dio una ubicación en Keswick donde se podían obtener la mayoría de las señales móviles. Le agradecimos y le dijimos que lo probaríamos. Pero luego dijo que no debíamos quedarnos atrapados y que si no podíamos recibir una señal, regresaríamos al café y nos dejaría usar su teléfono fijo. Café y pastel encantador, seguido de modales impecables, fantástico. Gracias.

Party of 5..staff couldn't be more helpful and friendly..food excellent and when one of us asked for English mustard one of the staff popped to shop to get some..service above and beyond

We came in literally out of the rain! The staff were excellent, service excellent and our scones /carrot cake was delicious Well worth a visit!

Had tea and scones here, beautiful fresh scones with jam and clotted cream, variety of teas very reasonable too!!

Nice and cosy place. Great selection of breakfast(two fussy kids). Friendly staff. Food and drinks were lovely. Sausage and egg bap Bacon bap Bacon and pancake stack Toast and butter Latte Tea Milkshakes.

Arrived here to a lovely friendly welcome with our 3 year-old. Children's meal of chicken nuggets were clearly home made and delicious, arriving on a quirky plate that resembled a Lego brick. We had the big cooked breakfast and found the produce used to be of high quality and cooked perfectly. The portion was very generous. There are some well kept, very clean toys discreetly kept to occupy young visitors.If you want somewhere with a warm welcome with good quality food then if in Keswick you should pay this a visit

We love this place! It's squeaky clean, serves a great range of foods - hot and cold - and it's our perfect lunchtime drop-in. There are plenty of tables, lots of bees (not real) and the staff are lovely. Best of all, for me, there is an amazing choice of gluten free options. My favourite? Caramel Apple Tart. To die for!

Lovely little cafe selling tastes and beverages. Roomy and warm situated in the centre of town. Really enjoyed visiting when on holiday with my family and loved the late afternoon opening hours which are ideal after a day fell walking. A little gem of a cafeteria

Holiday in keswick 20-29 August 2019 this cafe sells the most horrendous tasting coffee I've ever tasted, it's as if they draw the coffee several times over the same ground beans. I ordered a full English breakfast which was most likely part cooked the previous day, the bacon was like cardboard and the fried egg was flat luke a stale egg and the whole meal was tasteless. We brought up our experience that evening at lunch in our guest house dinning room and to our surprise other guests expressed their same anxieties at how poor the Honey Pot Cafe breakfast was for them.

Cafe had 3 customers at tables, virtually empty cafe, we sat for 15mins, before being acknowledged,as we stood up to leave,the lady came to take order,said she was on her own needed staff!! Scone & tea,my hubby choc shortbread.Put on table quite abrupt, we ate and left.WILL not visit again.

The staff in the Honey Pot are extremely friendly and helpful, There is a very good choice of food to pick from. We had the steak and ale pot pie with chips and peas, excellent and very good value for money. We have used the cafe previously when in Keswick and the standards remained high in all aspects from this lovely cafe..

We called in for a late breakfast and received the warmest welcome and service experience possible. Traditional cafe and breakfast choices of good quality served with a smile. Very clean surroundings and would recommend if in Keswick.

Always find excellent value for money from a good menu. Food well prepared and presented. Staff are always helpful. Been going for many years and always look forward to going back.

Visited with family at lunchtime. Unfortunately I can’t eat solid food due to stage four throat cancer but family ordered various items. Later overheard staff comment “we should charge her service charge sitting there not eating” Said loud enough for us to hear. Will never visit again.

Manager took order wrong and was unapologetic in doing so. On paying the bill, despite apologising myself that there was some confusion over the order. She told me that perhaps I should be clearer when placing my order in the future. Once I had finished paying I did say that it was a shame that she couldn't apologise for any confusion and accept any responsibility. It was a shame because the young staff that were supporting her were so attentive. On leaving, whilst we were still in earshot, she exclaimed to him that it was my fault that the order was wrong. I would strongly discourage people from visiting the honey pot.

We had lunch here on the Bank Holiday when Keswick was very busy so we had a bit of a wait for our food - they seemed short-staffed too. Everyone was still very friendly despite the rush and the food was excellent. We tried 4 different all day breakfasts between us (kids, veggie, best and full) and they were all lovely. Good coffee too. Any place that does both breakfast and afternoon tea all day is all right by me!

Visited as a family of 4, had a warm welcome on arrival from a young waiter. Prompt service in terms of asking for our order. Lovely lady explained to our children that there was toys and books if they wanted to use them while they waited.

We stopped off in Keswick and went in here for a quick lunch. Nice simple food, well presented and good portions served by friendly welcoming staff.

A lovely atmosphere in this small establishment, just off the beaten track near the town centre. Our meals were quickly served and well-presented. Server didn't know what was in the Cumberland Pie though (not recommended unless you like black pudding!). We would have stayed for dessert but, although there were few customers, the waitress never looked at us and the younger server was looking over the counter towards the preparation area and never once looked round at the customers! At least five minutes before we gave up and left after paying. Glad we did as local ice creams were much better value for a family that their slightly over-priced desserts.

The Honey Pot cafe is a first class place for good old fashioned wholesome food! Good selection of dishes from morning to teatime! Eaten here many times before, but this year we were here twice. Staff so accommodating, fitting you in as possible if not booked, tho we booked both nights. Food was great and just what we wanted. Hot, wholesome n very enjoyable. The staff were amazing especially when Keswick was extremely busy with the Convention and the cafe was constantly busy busy busy. But oh so great! Thanks to all the staff

Just was walking past and the place looked so inviting we decided to have the soup which came with a warm roll the soup was very hot and a good bowl full afterwards we had a sweet I wanted apple pie but custard wasn't on the menu I asked if they had any and they were very good and made some the staff was very good and price very reasonable

we visited here twice for lunch ,the have a good menuwith plenty of choice.the food is good and very reasonably priced

We joined friends for a birthday meal here. The staff were attentive, friendly and helpful, and the food was of high quality, well prepared and nicely presented.

This was a nice looking place, the food was good, but the over anxious/ stressed manager marred the experience. She had 3 young staff who were fine and helpful, and the place was nearly empty, but her attitude was making everyone including us feel tense. We had a nice fry up breakfast but when we asked for some marmalade for our toast the manager said well you haven't paid for it. I said we would and we only wanted a little bit for the toast and she begrudgingly gave me a small pot and then said I didn't have to pay. This in itself was fine, but her overall attitude just put us off going back and was not a very good role model for the young staff.

Sin lugar a dudas, el personal más capacitado en materia de alergias alimentarias y contaminación cruzada que he encontrado hasta la fecha. Buen menú con muchas opciones. Me sentí segura. Llegamos aquí hace unos años y, aunque era bueno, tuve que cambiar el pañal de mi bebé en el piso del inodoro, ya que no había instalaciones, pero ahora hay baños nuevos y encantadores con vestuarios. Vendrá aquí de nuevo.

Visitamos el miércoles 17 de julio de 2019. Mientras estábamos en Keswick, vimos este café, y pensamos que se veía limpio, ordenado y muy agradable. Ya había un grupo de 5 sentados, y esperando su orden, nuestro grupo de 4 se sentó y miró el menú, habíamos decidido lo que queríamos y esperamos, y esperamos, finalmente llamamos y obtuvimos la respuesta. ', la camarera luego procedió a tomar los pedidos de los clientes que vinieron después de nosotros, así que decidimos irnos, la camarera dijo' Estaré solo un minuto ', a lo que respondimos,' No hay problema, sus otros clientes son más importantes para ti. 'Luego tomamos nuestra costumbre donde fue bienvenida.

dropped in for a cuppa and toastie, very well presented food and tasty, lovely service, can't fault it, will go again when back in Keswick, thanks

We visit this cafe every time we come to Keswick and have never been disappointed, always quick service with good food and very pleasant staff, our favourites are the milkshakes and home made scones

En comparación con algunos de los otros establecimientos de comida que visitamos en Keswick, esto fue un poco decepcionante. La comida era tradicional, y nada que no hayamos visto antes. La camarera que nos servía era bastante brusca (y no solo con nuestra mesa), pero los clientes habituales tenían un mejor trato y fueron recibidos con una cálida bienvenida.

Party of 6,two grandparents,two sons and two daughters-in-law and toddler visited this establishment today,our first family day out with my new grandson. When we arrived there were two ladies and two children,so plenty of room. Yes,we did have two prams, however,the young "lady" wasn't happy at all to be inconvenienced.
