The Lakeside Cafe in Doncaster

Called in for breakfast after a walk around the lake on a random day off work. Absolutely beautiful! I had a medium breakfast and hubby had large breakfast (full English) Service excellent Cafe excellent Food excellent Deffo be back! Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed

Delicious hot breakfast served with a smile and a cheery welcome, great value for money and lovely surroundings, will go again ASAP

A real gem. My first visit and I spent a couple of hours here today. The staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. So friendly and helpful. Food was lovely and a lovely view of the lake and birds. Thankyou so much . Ill be back 😀

Great food at reasonable prices and very helpful and friendly staff. They put together any meal you ask for.

Really nice place,very good coffe and the staff is also nice and friendly!The place is very clean and food is so tasty!

We were a group of 10 booked in for coffee Fresh scones were made for us and they were very good Most people also decided to have various breakfast options so the order became very complicated but it was taken and delivered quickly and very efficiently Everything was lovely and good value I have also visited independently and had breakfast It is really good and excellent value Thank you for a very good experience

On a cold day this cafe was buzzing. Coffee and cake but also lovely and good value lunches. Our toasty sandwich came with a mountain of chips so we did not bother with a meal later on. Good value and very pleasant staff.

Visited for a spot of breakfast and arrived about 10:30. Unfortunately we didn't get any food until 11:05. Quite bad for a breakfast and a bacon butty (a sausage and some scrambled eggs for Heinz). Approximately 4 other tables in when we ordered.. Was full when we left though. The food itself was nice, nothing extraordinary but not the worst either. Price was good too. Right down the middle. Great location, nice to sit and watch the birds on the lake but its not enough to keep our 2 year old entertained for 35 minutes whilst waiting for some food. Will visit again but hope its quicker next time round.

Waited 15mins for 2 coffees. Sat at a table listening to the Barista banging the portafilter on the knock bar as loud as she could....so unbelievably loud. Maybe invest in a rubber knock bar as the noise is unbearable and constant.

Not impressed walking in on Sunday 9th Jan 3.30 ordered coffee x 2 and wanted to order a cheese toastie only to be told the machines have been switched off you can only have cake not impressed

We visited today after a walk round the lake and a play in the park. Busy before we arrived but still lots of choice. Great value for money and friendly staff. We'd visit again, just arrice earlier.

Call to get soup and sandwiches to take out at 1.25pm today,cafe info outside said it was open until 2pm but after I had been asked what I wanted I was informed food was no longer being served. I was then informed they had run out of food 30 minutes earlier. Would rather correct times were advertised so to avoid disappointment. Really not good customer service.

Lovely place to sit outside with a lake. Had a large breakfast which was about 20 mins. I would describe as a old school style cafe, run of the mill breakfast.

My wife and I stopped here for a lunch one day in July and had an enjoyable lunch of a prawn salad and a toasted sandwich. They were both excellent with a good portion in the case of the salad. It is in a nice location adjacent to the pond in the centre of Askern. Parking is available nearby. Recommended

Great choice and value for money. Location overlooking the lake is really nice and outside seating is available

Lakeside by name, lakeside by nature. A great little place that makes a cycling pit-stop. Good grub and strong tea at a very reasonable price. Nice to sit and watch the swans, geese, ducks and model boaters outside on the lake.
