Coffee and food was good as usual. Just disappointing that the staff were so unfriendly and unwelcoming, miserable, as if they I didn’t want to be there.

We had a lovely visit to Lime Lounge for breakfast. The coffee was excellent....the best Flat White I've had all weekend in Bakewell and the food was brilliant too. The cafe is clean and there's a lovely easy atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and the guy on the door today was very warm and welcoming. A lovely place fir us to be together before we went our separate ways after our weekend away.

We called here for my birthday light lunch, I am vegan and we had walked round Bakewell not finding anything particularly inspiring, then as we we headed back to the car we saw the Lime Lounge, the vegan menu was excellent and extensive even vegan cakes on offer. I had a vegan tuna melt, it was delicious, atmosphere was great service and presentation excellent, highly recommend, we will definitely be visiting again. Thank you

This coffee lounge looks very trendy, so is the type of place I'd normally avoid, as I've found the trendier/more modern places value style over substance. How wrong I was! We visited this morning for breakfast, and it was brilliant. Fabulous full english cooked to absolute perfection. Bacon tasty and the fat was cooked. Quality sausage. Egg yolk nice and runny. Beans mushrooms and grilled tomato perfect. To top it all, it was served on a hot plate. Best breakfast I've ever eaten in Bakewell. Price reasonable. My only disappointment was no filter coffee (not keen on proper/machine coffee). Special mention to the staff who were lovely, so polite and cheerful, particularly the young chap who served us, he was full of banter and very happy in his job - love people like that.

Chose this place as it looked nice and had plenty of veggie and vegan options. Sadly they were almost all of the fake meat variety - vegan cheese, vegan bacon etc, rather than tasty vegetarian food. Cakes looked good, service was quick but impersonal, panini was alright but nothing to write home about.

Pop being served in cans is a no no for me. Poor presentation and the side salad was very poor (nothing like the photos!!) Over priced and not that much choice (had run out of bacon, eggs, various other things). The panini was nice but not worth anywhere near the £6 price tag. And a waitress with a "piss off" tattoo on her arm?? Really??? I'm not averse to tattoos, have a couple myself but if it's something like that, cover it up when working!!! Won't be returning.

An excellent choice for our first Bakewell Pudding experience. They were delicious, oozing with jam and lovely crispy pastry, which was not at all greasy, washed down with a perfect cup of tea. Everything was served promptly and all Covid measures were in place. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.Later, we purchased puddings from one of the well known shops, these ended up in the bin, nothing like as good, so we wished we’d asked for take away from here.

Had a great coffee here, spent £10 on three drinks so not cheap. First downside was they’re not adhering to covid regulations in terms of staff wearing face masks, seats not being suitable distanced etc. Anyway, we were about to leave as we waiting for our friend to return from the toilet and the older male employee came over and passive aggressively said ‘you’ve been here a while we’re turning people away’ We were sat by the door, no one was being turned away and there was a spare table next to us.... I suggest you read up on the covid rules for hospitality and then focus on your manners

Came into the cafe today wanting to have something to eat with my friend. The atmosphere of the cafe is nice and average. However it’s not the cleanest. As I walked in I saw dirty cups on nearly most tables which didn’t have any customers sat on. I think while COVID 19 is happing places should look cleaner than usual. I went and ordered by nice staff very polite and welcoming. Me and my friend both ordered a bacon sandwich. The sandwich was good for its price but I do have to say the bacon was to crunchy for me and my friends liking. It came with to much of a big portion. However the experience was average.

As a reply to a review by Lucyloo1000, with all respect, with being a regular myself, you might have misunderstood or misread the situation between the owners and the staff (on what was one of the busiest days of the year for the cafe). Not only do they never shout at their staff, but in all likelyhood what you experienced was most likely meant in jest. The owners do nothing but support and take care of their staff (and guests) above and beyond, it's such a wonderful family built environment to visit. I am sorry you didn't fully enjoy your visit, but i feel you shouldn't speak for others in this matter as regulars know we and everyone in the cafe are treated with the upmost respect and understanding.As a side note, best coffee in Bakewell, unique blend sold nowhere else in the area, and the scones are to die for. 10/10 for me.

Went here on boxing day with some friends for a coffee and cake, which was fine, but the experience was ruined when a woman, who we assumed was the owner, constantly yelled and had a go at the counter staff, the other customers were equally horrified by this and one regular said that this was not unusual behaviour for her, i feel sorry for the employees and would not return.

We have visited The Lime Lounge lots of times (virtually every time we come to Bakewell) and we have never been disappointed. Today we had a range of coffees, teas, cakes and hot meals - the sausage melt ciabatta and the fishcakes were especially good. The coffee is great but what really makes this place stand out from the rest, is the excellent staff - staff who look genuinely pleased to be there and are so happy to help (such as extending one of the tables to make extra room for us to accommodate our little one in a highchair). I can't recommend highly enough!

After a walk that was much longer than initially planned, we decided to call in to the first café we came across in Bakewell, and this – just over the bridge – was it. It was a little past peak lunch time, and we found a table seat easily.We both chose items from the vegan menu, primarily because we hadn’t spotted the “standard” menu options from a blackboard slightly out of sight away from our table. But no matter, the vegetable casserole and the butternut squash Wellington were both very good. One minor point: we asked for tap water, and were each given only a small glass, which later we asked to be refilled. We had to ask if a jug of water could be provided, which it duly was … it would have been better if a jug had been provided as a matter of course. Still, we enjoyed the food and the ambience, and are very likely to return on future visits to Bakewell.

Just over the bridge from the car park as you enter Bakewell, this smart cafe, with squashy sofas, wooden tables and window seats looking out on the town, has a welcoming friendly buzz about it. We've been a few times now and The Lime Lounge has now become the first port of call on our arrival in Bakewell. The food and service are consistently good here; lovely hearty breakfasts, an interesting blackboard menu including some nice vegetarian options, excellent choice of well-made cakes and scones - can't fault anything!

Super service, squashy sofas, magazines, table service..... and there's more. The food is freshly made, as are the beverages, and the portions are herculean. It is truly an oasis of excellence on all fronts. I had a cheese and onion soft baguette, my friend a tuna and mayo soft baguette. We almost came to blows over who had ordered what, as, frankly, I wanted both! I ended the impasse by sticking to my own order and it was probably one of the best I have ever had. It sat there on the plate (looking very large) and just like a perfectly ordinary (but large!) cheese and onion baguette. But it wasn't at all ordinary. I was so taken with it I approached the counter staff afterwards to ask what cheese they had used - suspecting it was a 'local' number! No, apparently not. Perfectly ordinary Cheddar. Well, I begged to differ on the 'ordinary', and the young man added that 'of course, we also sprinkle all our food with a good helping of love'. I adored the speedy riposte and made my farewell by stating that I was now sure they also served 'bull'. They loved it, We'll be back!

We always seem to gravitate to the Lime Lounge Coffee House whenever we're in town at lunch time. Their specials are tasty and not the usual run of the mill food and there's always a vegetarian option. The butternut squash Wellington with side salad is a favourite but there's plenty of other choice and their breakfasts are very good too. Staff are always efficient and friendly. The only room for improvement is the quality of the tea which is not good. A case for Yorkshire Tea perhaps.

Having visited this cafe previously, we decided to nip in for a coffee. Being a group of 6 ladies we found a table in the corner and grabbed a couple of extra spare chairs which we moved to one side of the table, only to be told off quite abruptly by a member of staff advising that we couldn’t block a wheelchair access route. We were a bit taken about by the bluntness but understood so moved to another table in another corner of the restaurant. The couple on the next table offered us their small spare chairs which we put under the end of our table- not blocking anyone’s access. Suddenly a young waitress appeared shouting to staff - move these Bloody chairs its dangerous’! Looking at us and muttering “bloody hell”! We then got another ‘telling off’ from the staff, at which point the couple near us left saying we could use their table for 2 of our party. Had we not already ordered our coffees we would have walked straight out. I have never encountered such rudeness from a member of staff anywhere- not how you treat paying customers. No apology from the manager either. Unfortunately will not be returning!

First of all after reading some of the reviews where someone said they would rather be somewhere else and when in Bakewell do they want to sit in a café, I have to wonder why they went into the Lime Lounge and why they stayed in it if they know of other nicer places?! I went in really to try it and am so glad I did. It is airy and clean, has a good choice of food and beverages and the staff we came across were very efficient and pleasant. When a table was vacated the staff immediately cleared and cleaned it. When they brought me a second drink, they cleared away the pots from the first one. The toilet is spacious and clean!!

Visited the lime lounge today with my family. We sat and ordered at the counter where we were served by friendly people who brought our order to us promptly. Whilst sat enjoying our drinks an incredibly rude woman stormed in to the cafe, loudly demanded we moved our pram, which was in no ones way (before dragging it to where she wanted it herself running over my sisters foot) told us we shouldn’t have moved a chair from a different table which was not being used by the occupants of said table!! Because it was blocking wheelchair access to the toilet (ironically where the chair was subsequently moved to made it more difficult to access the toilet for the invisible wheelchair that was no where to be seen) before insulting her staff because they had failed to reprimand us for moving an unused chair! The awful thing is that if she was in any way nice about the situation and politely asked us to move we would have and of course if a wheelchair user was in the building and needed access I would always be the first person to help! But the horrible rude woman has lost mine and my families service, as well as the surrounding tables who were equally horrified by her outburst!

We chose to eat breakfast here mainly because of their 'No dogs' policy. Loved the decor and the chilled out atmosphere. One of us had a bacon roll which was enormous and very tasty. I just had toast and marmalade - it was ok but would have preferred crusty bread instead of ordinary sliced bread. However, this was just a picky thing - the coffee was gorgeous and I had seconds. Would recommend and well done keeping it dog-free!

Nice coffee, ‘Heavenly’ I think, but not as nice as Riccis. Food not bad, but somehow I’d rather be somewhere else. Is it me? Not a critism, just when I’m In Bakewell do I really want to be in a cafe?

Popped in here with the family for a quick coffee and cake and we were delighted with our choice. On entering we were greeted by a stylish, clean, uncluttered and homely space. The staff were all smiles and very helpful clarifying our dietary requirements and showing us the ample choices even for a lactose intolerant person like me. The service was fantastic with the cakes brought to us by another server who was polite, professional and pleasant. Could not recommend enough, should be in the top ten!

We had afternoon cuppa and cake before the 4pm closure, which is common in Bakewell. There was a great choice of cake or tray bakes,but not overwhelming. And a good selection of drinks to wash it down with.

Busy cafe on the main road through Bakewell with views of the old bridge and the old buildings on the street. The food we had was paninis and they were very tasty. All the tables were taken, but we managed to get tall seats at the window bar table.

A lovely atmosphere, very friendly and accommodating service. We visited three times whilst on holiday once walking and twice cycling, each time they offered to fill our water bottles - even when it looked like we weren't staying for food. The lunches, coffee and cake were lovely.

This was a lovely coffee shop near the bridge in Bakewell. The coffee was excellent and there was a good choice. My husband and I also had a sausage and bacon bap which was very tasty. The staff were very friendly and helpful

Called in for a bite to eat and a drink, it really makes a change to go in a place in a tourist area and NOT get ripped off. Nice food pleasant staff, reasonable prices what's not to like about this place would recommend it to anyone visiting Bakewell.

Went here for brunch and was pleased to find a great selection of gluten free options. I had the full English which was tasty and filling. Staff were attentive and the cafe is really quirky inside and also has plenty of outdoor seating

Having been disapointed elsewhere in town, we came across The Lime Lounge Coffee House in Bakewell by accident.

We had two visits to the Lime Lounge and on both occasions it was busy. It looks inviting from the outside and this is matched by the warm welcome inside. We only had coffee, tea and tea cakes, so cannot comment further on the food, but service was prompt. My only personal preference is to avoid the metal tea pots on tables, and prefer crock. They just look better alongside the white cup and saucer and milk jug. But that is only me being fussy because the tea was great. Good to see a changing mat available for babies in the toilet area, and the toy box in the corner shows that this place welcomes children. We will come back on our next visit.

We cam here three times during our stay in Bakewell as we felt it was the best cafe in the town. Breakfast options are good. We were particularly impressed with their more unusual and interesting cake options.

We visited this cafe after a wonder around Bakewell and all the staff were very happy and chatty which made it even nicer. I had a ham and cheese panini which was lovely, proper cooked ham and thick melted cheese. My husband had a chicken tikka baguette and noted how nice and fresh the bread was. The cakes looked delicious but we were just too full! Lovely cafe in the heart of Bakewell.

Arrived around 10:45 am on 10/11/24 only to be informed that there was no hot food being served until 11:15 due to a take away order. Others in front of us left and we reluctantly ordered two coffees, a flapjack and a Pork Pie instead of the full cooked breakfasts we’d hoped for. We were charged twice for the Pork Pie, which we pointed out and were subsequently refunded for. We sat at a table that had the previous occupants breakfast plate on it (which was never cleared, considering the waiting on staff weren’t serving any food at the time) and waited for our coffee which did not arrive. We fetched it ourselves from the counter, at which point around 11:05, they started taking breakfast orders again. The place seemed poorly managed and why you’d turn away valued customers for a take away order is beyond me.

We went for Sunday lunch and it was probably the best I've had, the meat melted in your mouth and the veg was brilliant with meaty gravy

Called here this morning before going for a walk round Matlock bath. Lovely quaint little tea shop with welcoming servers. Just had drinks but the menu stated a variety of food and cakes. Great prices also. Would call again as lots of Covid restrictions in place so felt safe.
