Visited with my Mum for a light bite mid afternoon. The food was excellent. tasty, hot, and well presented. The outstanding feature, however, was the quality of staff service and going the extra, in particular, Pip. She made a lovely and kind comment about an item of clothing Mum was wearing. Little did she know how much that meant given Mum had just lost her brother, and she was feeling quite low. Pip spoke to Mum for several minutes, offering her condolences. Just as we left, Pip presented Mum with a boxed cake to enjoy with a cup of tea later that evening. The kindness and loveliness that Pip displayed today meant so much and served to highlight what absolutely outstanding staff work at BVGC. Thank you, Pip.

Been here and had lovely food - came with sisters for brekkie - clearly they have changed things no waitress service anymore, prices have gone up a lot and quality has gone down, staff pleasant but breakfast wasn’t great - poached egg was snotty and inedible bacon overcooked and i know it was busy but felt harassed to leave by hovering staff - can’t recommend sorry to say

Great views across Morecambe Bay and the chips were excellent but the menu needs attention. for example they offer various meals with mushy peas - but no alternative. Many HATE mushy pease so why not offer green garden peas as an alternate? Steak offered- is rare. Fine for some but not everyone likes barely cooked steak. A restaurant of this size ought one able to offer a choice. My wife didn't think much of her. meat pie, thought it was indigestible. and had to leave most of it. On the positive side the chips were some of the gas tI've found anywhere. Credit to the chipper.

My partner and I visited Bay View Restaurant on Saturday 12 Th October. Food was nice and most of the staff were very professional. We were amazed though that half way through our lunch we saw a male member of staff, not in a uniform so perhaps he was a member of management? I don't know. Anyway he cleared some tables of dirty pots, then proceeded to serve people with his bare hands ( no gloves ) various cakes. He didn't use tongs etc like all the other people seemed to be doing, but used his hands and was swapping from cake to various cake. God help anyone he served if they had an allergy because he obviously didn't care about that or hygiene. Amazed .

As a visitor to Morecambe, saw the Garden Centre advertised and decided to visit. Nice Garden Centre with plants, gifts and of course Restaurant. Decided to have lunch and it was good to see small portions available. My husband and I decided on the Fish & Chips which was served by very polite and efficient staff, we sat in open air area with beautiful views of countryside towards the sea. If in the area again would certainly visit as we did notice an area for coffee/cakes (looked delicious). Would recommend.

Ever seen the Ricky Gervais/Afterlife scene where he tries to buy 2 child’s portions for himself and his young nephew in a cafe? He simply isn’t that hungry. They refuse to serve him until he finally says his nephew will actually order 2 child portions in that case. It’s very funny and obviously pointing out quite how ridiculous it is to refuse to serve you the size of portion you’d prefer, because you’re not a child. They actually do this at Bay view. We go here often and today went as a family of 6 for brunch. One of our party has a very small appetite. They wanted to try the pancakes but knowing it’s a large portion, asked if they could have the child portion. ‘No sorry. Very strict rules in place about that’ we were told. Nobody likes to waste food or feel over faced so they opted for a toasted tea cake instead. We ended up spending less money. Where is the sense in that? Surely there could be some discretion used when it’s just a genuine situation? A party of 6. We all ate and we all had drinks. The food is nice. The rules are a bit silly.

Third time of visiting but unfortunately each time has been a huge let down, I thought a mid week lunch would have been better. My glass arrived, obviously covered in lipstick but I had to point it out, the panini was stale and the green salad was so old it had pretty much turned to black liquid and should never have been sent out as it was visually very obvious. Maybe ok for coffee and cake but we didn't stay to find out.

Four of us came in for coffee and cakes mid-morning. We asked for a quiet table because some of us have hearing difficulties, and got one close to the entrance and the servery; it wasn't very quiet, but at least there was no music playing and most of the time we could hear each other. Chantelle looked after us beautifully, taking a couple of off-piste requests in her stride. We were sad to discover that there was no cheesecake, but the gluten-free carrot cake was excellent, rich with spices and orange zest. The toasted teacake was very good, and one of us chose a GF bacon sandwich which apparently was also very good. Nice view, nice vibe, good food and drinks, reasonable prices, friendly helpful staff. Can't ask for much more than that.

We have been going to bay view for a few years, we have taken family, friends and have always enjoyed the experience until recently. Most of the time we go into the dog section, but for several times we have waited for a ridiculous length of time before going in and asking for service! The young members of the team stand around looking into space and in no urgency. As the weather hasn't been brilliant, amazed they have taken down the all weather covers to the sides in the dog section, so you actually sit and freeze if you can brave it. Why oh why is one person not allocated to just taking orders in this section? East fix. Sadly it has put us off as there is lots of choices instead, but not what we want as we love the food! Sort it out please, us dog lovers shouldn't be penalised.

My wife and I visited this restaurant in order to obtain either breakfast or lunch. We arrived at 10 past 11 this morning and managed to park in a disabled bay. When we were shown to a table my wife asked if we could move to another one that would facilitate my crutches. The young lady was very obliging and moved us without any hassle and informed us of the waiter/waitress service. After about 10 minutes we were approached by a waitress asking if we wanted breakfast or lunch. We stated lunch and agreed to wait until lunch menu started before ordering. At 11:30 another waiter took our order and within minutes our coffees arrived. A short time later our meals arrived and they tasted very nice. The only problem that we had was having to attract the waiters attention in order to obtain vinegar. I wouldn’t call this a problem, but maybe, as we have found in other garden centre restaurants, the waiter/waitress could just ask if the customer “would like anything else” before they leave. Regarding the disabled parking, would it allow more bays if lines were drawn straight out with let’s say a metre of criss crosses between the vehicles. Anyway, although we have read the previous feedbacks we can assure you of our return very soon. 5 stars all round. Regards alanwilcox64@gmail.com.

I'd never visited this place until a year ago. Now I've been three times! I can highly recommend the afternoon tea, halloumi & avocado and the sandwiches. Service is always good and the place is spacious. Oh and did I mention the cakes? I really should have. They're ace. Oh and the views on a decent day. A perfect blend.

My grandma had come in for a lunch with her friend. She has been very ill recently in and out of hospital therefore she is not feeling up to eating a lot. When in the cafe she asked if she could get a meal off the kids menu where they said they will go ask a manger after when she came back she said she can't my grandma explained her situation of how ill she has been and they offered no other service to her on what she could have. My grandma is not one to want to waste food and why should she have too. So they both her and her friend left and this only results in the business missing a sale and also just a let down customers. I would not recommend this place to anyone anymore

A week of coffee in the morning culminating in a breakfast with friends just before we returned home. We sat in the conservatory as we had our dog with us and each day received excellent service and friendliness from all the staff we came into contact with. It was also great to relax with our dog and to meet lots of other dog owners enjoying the experience. Thank you. We will be back.

Sadly, yet again we couldn't come into the café as there were no available disabled parking bays. There are only 4 bays, there would be room for more if the parking spaces were designed better. Anyway, all 4 spaces were full, all 4 cars did not display a blue badge. We were disappointed 😞 we couldn't park further as away due to my disability I can only walk very short distances. The food here is always lovely and unfortunately we had to go elsewhere due to inconsiderate parking.

We walked into the cafe at 3pm to see with great pleasure there were many, many free tables. We counted capacity for at least 30 people, just within our sight. We stood and looked at the cakes, as we only stopped by for a cake and a coffee. We were then told by the woman on the desk by the entrance they weren't doing anymore cakes as there were too many people waiting for seats. Total disbelief, as there was so much visible space. Shame, as local customers we won't be coming back. Having just returned from a really busy Inn in the lakes where everyone was catered for, service was excellent and accommodating and no one turned away, even when there wasn't space, we concluded that although the cafe looks a nice place, it appears to be ran with incompetence. Luckily, there's plenty of other local places to choose from.

2nd time I have been and the second time I have had negativity and bad service from Janette. We asked to sit in the window and she pulled a right face at us when she was going to put us somewhere else. Our table wasn't wiped and when we asked the waitress who was wiping tables she said yes then proceeded to wipe other tables and didn't come back to us. The young waitress who looked after us was very sweet and friendly. I had to go and ask for our cakes we ordered as we had ordered coffee and cake and it was nearly 10 minutes.after we had had the coffees. The view was nice and the coffee and cake were tasty.

We arrived at lunchtime and as we had our dog we sat in the “dog friendly” part of the restaurant, which is a side room full of patio tables and with an open area at one side of the room which is open to the elements. We found it a bit chilly as only one heater was working. Never mind, we ordered a tea and a latte to warm us up. We also ordered the cheese and onion pie and the quiche. Then we waited and waited and waited. It got to over 1/2 an hour since the waiter took our order and still nothing, not even the drinks. I went to see the waiting staff about the long delay and there were two or three staff just stood there. I asked politely if our food was going to be much longer. They all looked at their high-tech ordering system phones or iPads and after much deliberation the waiter told us there was a system error and our order was not registered, no apology. I said to forget it as we weren’t prepared to wait any longer, still no response, just blank faces. So unfortunately we left starving and went to the chippy in Bolton-le-sands instead. So, overall not the best experience, the dog friendly part of the restaurant seemed overlooked and dull, just patio tables with a salt and pepper pot, no vases of flowers or decorations. It just seemed like the owners were ticking a box. It’s a shame as the other diners food looked good, but we were just left with cold fresh air Disappointing

She asked the server for 2 more pieces and was told they were 30p each if she wanted them. Never been anywhere they do that before!. Talk about mean profiteering...wont be coming again.

We were greeted by a friendly member of staff who showed us a table to sit at, it was by the window so we got to see the lovely view out to sea. Our order was taken quickly and it wasn't long before it arrived, coffee was very good and farmhouse toast and marmalade to eat. The menu seemed very good with plenty of choice. We had a look round the shop at the Christmas display which was very tastefully set out. Everywhere was nice and clean and the members of staff we spoke to were all very friendly. We will most certainly be back.

We have been a few times to this really nice garden centre. It is very friendly and always busy. Good to see vegan options on the menu. Hoping a few more vegan options will be added or something new soon. Only one cake seemed to be vegan, lovely , but a change would be nice. Views amazing whilst you eat. Service quick and staff friendly and hard working. One thing that I did not like hence 4 stars was the odd way my chips arrived today. In the past I've had the lovely chickpea burger that came with chips, today I just had just chips and my cake. They arrived in a plant pot, fine when the pot sits on a plate, but today I added lots of vinegar to the chips not realising it really was a plant pot, not sealed pot. I only spotted the problem when my sleeve was soaking up the vinegar pouring onto the table. Sorry to be picky as everything else a delight but can you warn us there is a hole in the container for those like me that cover their chips in vinegar!! Look forward to some new dishes and cakes perhaps vegan friendly?

Easy to park, lovely shop, restaurant very busy, they only allow booking for large groups. Today, their IT failed, paper and pencil ordering! When it came to paying, card machine working but no facility to split the bill and take individual payments by card. This was difficult as one person didn't have enough cash to pay for everyone. She couldn't pay just her own by card. The waitress couldn't sort it out! Food was lovely, fish and chips were superb. Took a long time to get the bill. They were struggling to cope today.

We visited on a drizzly dull day with our dog, and as expected, we had to sit in the outdoor dining area. There are only 3 sides to this area, so the outer tables and chairs were wet. We waited for a dry table to come free, and we sat down. Then we waited and waited at a table that wasn't cleared from the previous diners. Eventually, we managed to ask a staff member to clear the table for us. Then we waited again for around 15 mins before anyone came to take a drink and food order. It was as if we were the forgotten customers because we were sat outside. We could see people inside who had arrived after us being served before we were. The food wasn't all that good when it finally arrived and our 7 year old granddaughter had to wait a good 5 mins longer than us for her meal to arrive. We won't visit again for a while hopefully it will improve.

Visited with my mum for our mother's day treat having visited well before the expansion and enjoying the food on our previous visit. We went on the Saturday to enjoy a leisurely lunch. Certainly needs to be leisurely and not somewhere you could visit in...

The place was heaving but we were shown to a table promptly. We were served quickly and the lunch was great and at a very affordable price.

Great Christmas shop but disappointed by the service and the food. Mini breakfast was cold as was the pot of tea. Poached egg was hard asked for new soft egg but when it came it was barely cooked🙁

We came to the Bayview Garden Centre as had booked a table at the restaurant following recommendations from friends. We certainly were not disappointed. All staff were friendly and polite. It was lovely to see all staff within the restaurant wearing face masks. We ordered...

We eat here regularly. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Remember to book if you have a dog as the dog friendly area gets busy and they allow people to dine there who don’t have dogs, which is annoying during busy times. I always enjoy...

I hadn't been to Bay View for a couple of years and was amazed at the improvements, both in the car parking facility (no more dusty chippings) as well as in the high standard of the building refurb and restaurant food. The menu was excellent,...

Great food, service ok. Seemed to forget about us after our meal. Biggest issue was that the restaurant was like a fridge. No one is gonna eat here in the winter unless they get heating sorted.

Food served on paper plates. Coffee served in paper cups. Same price as in restaurant . No bins to put your waste on table. It was windy and everything had to be held down or would blow away. Please use normal plates.

Went for breakfast , staff friendly but service was slow & it wasn’t busy. Asked for some sauce & never got it! Fried eggs were a bit greasy too, that aside breakfast was nice & not bad value for money.

Two friends and I went to Bay View Restaurant for lunch the other day. The service was poor and extremely slow, the main body of waiting staff appearing to be young and inexperienced. This was not the main problem though. On asking what the quiche...

After almost 18 months of hibernation it was nice to visit the redeveloped Bay View Garden Centre and Restaurant. The brand new restaurant is light, airy, roomy and adds a glass wall facing Morecambe Bay with just sand dunes between you and the sea. Additionally...

We went out for brunch to the restaurant. Really good choice of food. Service was really fast will definitely be going back. I would advise booking for the restaurant as the were turning people away but they also have a cafe on site.

I can here with my 3 year old granddaughter. Ordered her a kids meal, 4 vegan nuggets, about 10 chips and a small amount of beans...£6.00.!! Disgusting.!! Then I had to order a drink which didn't come with meal, a small carton of apple juice, and extra £2.00.!! 8 pound in total, and the elderly lady behind the counter, very rude.!!! Park is beautiful cafe is work than a motorway service station.!! Never again.!! By the way the plate in the picture is tea saucer size.!!

A pleasant small pub with high quality ales, impressively decorated and decent entertainment on the Friday night I visited.

We were staying in a lodge nearby and googled Sunday lunches, this place is in a lovely spot, we parked near the level crossing, had a walk on the beach, over the hill to a cafe on a farm then walked along the canal path. It’s a very old pub, 1500’s? it’s quirky with low ceilings and little private nooks. Sunday roast was excellent as was their apple & raspberry crumble, staff were friendly and prices reasonable. Important to us dog friendly and we treated our pooch to a ‘Woofchester’ fish dinner she wolfed it down. Would recommend.

As with previous reviews we got caught out with the scam car park fees, there are no clear signs, why would you be looking for one? It’s a pub car park, as a tour guide who travels the U.K constantly I can’t think of another pub that operates a car park like this, to add insult to injury the food was distinctly average. My advice is if you are going for the Isle of Man ferry, eat on the boat and avoid this blatant scam.
