Breakfast - lovely choices, I had porridge with rhubarb and ginger compote. Couldn't fault it. Service was good and staff were friendly (but not ott - which I prefer). They clearly have loyal regulars too. Such a pleasant place to be. Seating upstairs, downstairs or outside. Magnificent view of the narrow canal and awesome Victorian railway viaduct. I will be back.

Visited today but won't be returning. Food great but service dreadful. Waited ages to order and it wasnt particulaly busy, waited about half an hour for food, order was wrong and waitress didn't apologise just silently took it back to the kitchen - she originally took the order too 🙄 correct order eventually arrived, again no apology. We could hear another waitress complaining about customers outside. Unprofessional all round

She eventually did and took out order . We sat their waiting , and waiting , 40 minutes latter no food ! My friend went in ! They had lost our order ! It eventually was delived 10 minutes later ! We had to rush our food , to get back to the village . Such a shame . We won’t be rushing back !

Called in for lunch on way into Uppermill. Food quite expensive. I ordered Fish finger butty. The bread was quite thick and the crusts a bit chewy. For £8.50 I would expect home made battered fish goujons but not 4 standard frozen breadcrumbed cheap fish fingers. My wife had the Turkish eggs which were OK but were served on top of the tzatziki which was fridge cold therefore making the eggs cold as well. Why not serve on the side? Service was a bit slow and noone bothered to ask us if everything was OK. I told someone anyway that we were disappointed with the food but they didn't seem that bothered. Loads of places to eat in Uppermill so have a look round there instead

What an amazing cafe! The breakfast menu has lots of options and is served all day. Staff were very attentive, seated us promptly and took a coffee and food order soon after which arrived quickly on a seemingly busy Father’s Day morning. My father and I both had eggs Benedict, although I had halloumi and my dad had bacon. The bacon was lovely and crispy and the bread looked like a fresh seeded loaf. We’ll definitely be back, certainly in the warm weather to sit on the balcony overlooking the canal. Big thanks to the LimeKiln team!

My partner and I stopped off here on a walk. Thankfully, it was just for a coffee and cake as the service was utterly shocking. Had it been very busy and staff were run of their feet then it would’ve been understandable. The staff on shift (around 6) spent the duration of our visit stood chatting and occasionally serving. I had to ask twice for our table to be cleaned and for something to prop the table up with. The coffee and cake were enjoyable but there certainly needs to be some discussions with staff/ more supervision and direction. A group of them stood chatting is not a good look and just appeared as very unprofessional.

Went today after a long journey to get there and the service was appalling. We sat waiting to be served for 10 minutes then as the lady was taking our order another member of staff shouted over to her that is a forty minute wait for food due to them being busy however it wasn’t even full. Great location but very badly managed, therefore we will not be returning.

3 of us went for breakfast, 2 adults and a child, we arrived and was sent upstairs where we waited well over 10 minutes for anybody to approach and take our order or offer us a drink, the tables where not the cleanest either. I had the pancakes and syrup, my partner had cherry tomatoes with mushrooms on toast, my child had 1 price of toast, beans, 1 bacon, 1 sausage, 2 teas and an orange. The pancakes were served without syrup, the bacon was streaky but not crispy so the fat was like rubber, all the food was very average, it cost £8.50 for 4 plain pancakes with syrup? That’s ridiculous as they where clearly out of a packet. In total it cost £34, I think that’s shocking to be honest especially since the quality was not great and the actual amount of food ordered didn’t even make 2 full breakfasts, over priced average food with a poor service experience too, Wont be going again.

Called on a cold rainy Sunday lunchtime. Ordered a Limnkiln favourite Portabello mushroom and halloumi burger on with potatoe skin fries . My special request for sweet chilli sauce was met and it came with d delicious dressed salad. Our latte came first lovingly prepared by Lucy our resident barista. Her coffee foam art was a nice touch but the flavour and temperature was just right. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful or friendly. Thank you Limekiln. I ve tried all the rest but I keep coming back to the best.

Visited on a Wedesday afternoon at 3PM. The menu looked interesting and we were looking forward to ordering.Waited a few minutes to be seated and once sat down a waitress came and wiped crumbs from the table all over seated customers - us. Dog hairs all over the floor. Waited 10 minutes to be offered drinks by a pleasant enough waiter who was having to manage on his own during a busy period, the waitress having other coat on and left.Nearly 30 minutes later, no sign of being served, dirty and cluttered tables all around us, so we left.PLEASE EMPLOY MORE STAFF!

It has been a while since we have eaten here as the place gets very busy. We called early-ish on a Monday morning and there was only one other table occupied. (No dogs or buggies which was a nice surprise)! We ordered scrambled egg and a sausage and a light breakfast with scrambled egg. We didnt have to wait very long and the food was delicious, the eggs were light and creamy, generous portions too, particularly the wholemeal toast. We will certainly return to sample other meals from the interesting specials board!

Our visit to this cafe exceeded our high expectations. Our table wasn’t ready when we arrived so we were put outside to wait and offered a free drink by way of an apology. We all ordered off the Christmas menu, I had vodka and beetroot cured salmon with the thick sliced being very tasty. For main, I had turkey with the usual trimmings. It was excellent, beautifully cooked. All washed down with a lovely glass of house white. The staff were very friendly and provided great service despite being very busy. I would definitely recommend a visit to this fabulous dog friendly establishment

This is a small, very popular cafe. The menu is varied with good options for a wide range of dietary preferences. The food is fresh and appears to be homemade. It's a good place to eat if you want healthy options or to just tasty, filling food.It attracts a wide range of customers including plenty of walkers.The staff are welcoming.My only reason for not giving a 5 rating is due to the building. If you are sat at a table between the main entrance and the door to the outside balcony it can be drafty and cold. The toilets are outside.They really need a larger venue.

A lovely little cafe but very busy when went went and very little seating. We had booked so we had a table. There is an outdoor eating area but on a rainy and windy day as it was when we visited that was not being used. Good food although the wait was longer than expected for the food. It is very popular with visitors, mostly walkers and cyclists being on the edge of the Pennines.

It’s lovely and cosy and we look forward to our visits.

We have been regulars at the cafe for a number of years and the good things first. It has a great vibe and location, and food is always great. However we have been left frustrated on a number of occasions, by the poor customer service here. They have a ridiculous system of allowing tables to sit empty for a large period of time as they allow all their tables to be reserved which is unbelievable for such a small cafe.

Sat surrounded by chips on the floor near my feet, table covered in other people’s leftovers staff did not clean tables outside where we were sat and allowed people to sit at these tables without wiping them. The floor was covered in bits of food the staff may be busy but it doesn’t take more than 5 minutes to wipe up tables - this is a certain neglect of basic hygiene the staff are polite and the food was ok but there is a need for training in hygiene and food safety please. Hope this will be taken as constructive criticism rather than a complaint as it was a lovely cafe...

Midweek lunchtime is a busy time at Limekiln & on our visit we had to wait a short time for a table. The location is great either by food along the canal or by road 2 minutes from uppermill, the food is consistently good & we didn’t leave hungry. The soup is homemade & the meals all seem to be presented with imagination.

What a great place for a short walk with a great cafe for eating afterwards. Just outside Dobcross, the canal walk from Lime Kiln Cafe to Standedge Tunnel is a great place for families with plenty to see and do along the towpaths. If there are any Tunnel Guides around when you visit, have a chat with them. They are full of interesting facts about the Tunnel (towards Huddersfield) and the canal.

We were exploring the area whilst on holiday and saw a brown sign for Brownhill Country Park so pulled in. There were a few parking spaces so we parked up and took the dog for a walk along the old railway track to Delph. On returning we saw the cafe and there was a suitable outside table for the five of us and the dog. We asked if we could have the dog with us and the staff member said 'Yes you're very welcome'.

Though it was busy the service was good and the staff attentive,the food was excellent and came within a short period after ordering. The venue is ideally located next to the canal and you can walk along the canal from easy access from the restaurant.

The Limekikn is literally the best place in saddleworth to go for well, anything really. Whether you want a simply coffee and a piece of scrumptious cake (they have plenty of choice and we’ve never had a bad one yet) or a three course meal, Limekiln will be able to meet your needs without fail. They cater for every diet going too. Whether it’s gluten free, lactose intolerant, vegetarian or Vegan, there’s plenty of choice and their specials board delightfully changes regularly with new and tasty treats to try from smoked salmon Pate and sea bass to Jack fruit Bao buns and Buddha bowls. They will help no matter what dietary requirement you need catering for and they do it without fuss.

Canal side café serves up tasty, good value grub and very good coffee. It can be a bit chilly on the terrace unless the sun is shining. The staff are really pleasant. The only downside is that lots of the inside tables seem to be reserved between 12.15 and 1.30. This means you can't just walk in from about 11.30 until 2pm unless you sit on the terrace. I can't help thinking they are losing lots of business because of this?

I’ve been visiting this place since it opened. The menu is excellent with something for all taste and the food is delicious. When The Lime Kiln first opened, anyone with dogs ate outside. However over the years, dogs have been increasingly present inside. The eating area is only small and fairly cramped. On my last visit there were five dogs, two of which were constantly barking at each other, another one peed on the floor. I was bitten by a dog a year ago which was a very frightening experience. When I’m out eating, I want to do so in a relaxed atmosphere. This type of set up is an accident waiting to happen. Sorry, Limekiln but unless you review you dog policy my friends andI won’t be visiting again. Without the dogs this would have earned a much higher rating.

Spent the morning and early afternoon having a walk around Dovestone reservoir and Chew Reservoir. Never been to Dobcross/Uppermill in my life. Had a look on TripAdvisor and saw this little café. It took my fancy so we decided to give it a try Situated by the canal as you go out of Uppermill to Dobcross near a roundabout. Its set back a little on the left just before the roundabout. If you blink you will miss it. It had been a nice spring day so the café was very busy. The only table left was outside on a veranda overlooking the canal. No problem as the sun was out. Decent menu with an extensive specials board as well.

This is a delightful little cafe with really high quality and original food. We go there from time to time, and they have a great selection of coffee, teas, cakes, sandwiches, soup and regular meals. There's a specials board that changes frequently. We've never had a bad experience here. The food is excellent and the staff are really friendly. I love the soups - they usually have two different types available and it is always delicious. Highly recommended! We sometimes book a table in advance as it's not a huge place and can get busy but they have drop-in spaces as well. There's a really nice outside patio when the weather is good enough to sit outside.

Came here with my friend for a catch up. A dog friendly cafe with a good selection of cooked breakfasts and hot/cold sandwiches. My friend ordered the big breakfast and i had the vegan breakfast. The portion sizes where spot on and were just right and reduced waste. The price was great and the quality of food fantastic♥️ the toast which came with my meal was lovely and fresh and the cakes on sale also seemed so. The view of the canal was lovely as we ate with accessibility to the canal walk from the patio. The only problem being that some of the outdoor heaters don’t work so unless you can sit next to a working on, it can be cold.

My sister and I meet here from time to time - we both grew up in Saddleworth and is good halfway point for us both. We consistently have great food here. The cakes particularly are superb. I love baking and I often wish I had their recipes!! We will keep coming back.

We loved the Limekiln cafe, we stopped in on our way back to the train station. The staff were very friendly, and they were very accommodating about providing vegan options! The food was so good and the drinks were festive and cute.

The food here is always delicious, great menu with lots of choice of traditional and more imaginative options! Service is also excellent...friendly, efficient, good value and great thoughtful extras like the blankets on the veranda!

Called in for a breakfast on Saturday, only to find that every empty table had a reserved sign on. The time was 9:15, so I could understand that on one table it said reserved for 9:45, but I could not understand why I could not have taken the table which was reserved for 12:00. A member of staff approached and apologised, saying that there where no tables available, so I went elsewhere.

We were recommended to visit and we were glad we did. What a fab place, with fab staff and fab food. We will definitely return to this gem of a place. We sat outside as it was so busy, but staff advised we could move inside of a place became available, which it did. A busy place, with lots of choice and a nice atmosphere and lovely views out back.

Visited this cafe on Sunday...what a disappointment We counted seven dogs from German shepherds to spaniels at various INSIDE dining tables. Most of them looked grubby/wet and obviously been for a good walk beside the canal.

Visited today on my way back from Uppermill, thought I’d just pop in for a coffee and be on my way.

Popped in Sunday morning not having booked and they were more than happy to squeeze us in.We had 3 big breakfasts and I have to say they were amazing.Certainly one if not the best breakfast I have eaten.Top quality produce and the service was impeccable despite being very busy.

Great menu. Love, love the chunky chips. Right next to the canal so on dry days the atmosphere is lovely.

Been to the cafe a few times as it is close to my parents flat. Food is very good and mixed serving a variety of tastes. We normally take my grandson, who needs a high chair. Staff are efficient and friendly. Certainly one of the best places in Uppermill for lunch

4 of us, including 2 x 2yr old's. We ordered breakfasts for all. Burned sausages (yes, served to 2yr old's!), burned black pudding, burned mushroom, stale toast and I've no idea how long the fried eggs had been there, but they were far from runny. It was clear that they weren't cooked for us and had been in the pan / oven / hot area for far too long. They still plated it and served to two toddlers. We weren't asked 'is everything is ok'. We did mention all the above at the end but there wasn't much of response. Nearly £30 wasted and it will be a while before we're back despite it being on our doorstep.

My family & I called in at this lovely little eaterie whilst out & about. Our waitress was so lovely! Friendly, smiling and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu & even more importantly about allergens. I am coeliac. She brought our beautifully presented (and hot) food with a smile & a flourish. I have to say the hand cut chips were Devine! My son & husband had a wonderful pulled pork sandwich and my daughter had a beautiful lamb kofta with olives, flatbread etc. Not the cheapest meal but it was worth every penny. Thank you Lime Kiln & thank you to our waitress Mia!

Ordered four fish & chip meals in addition to two other choices. All four were served up with overcooked chips many of which were dark brown and crispy. Two members of party did eat the chips. Fish was excellent but chips spoiled what should have been a nice family meal. Nowhere near H U normal standard.

Called in for the fresh carvery today.Freshly cooked gammon,but when I asked for some gammon, I was served with some which was hidden behind the fresh joint.Not fresh,a different colour to the fresh joint.I thought the idea of Toby carvery is that you see the fresh meat carved in front of you.Spoke to the manager and he said he would check about what I said and walked off and served someone else.Very unprofessional for a manager.

Amazing place, will be so sad to see it go in a few weeks. Love the food, staff are fantastic, and every time I have been they have been supportive, helpful and fully experienced. Considering some are volunteering, they are an amazing team. The food has always been way above average. Will miss this place.
