I wouldn’t say this was the friendliest place I have visited. We didn’t get a smile from any of the staff. Part of the experience of going out for food and drink is the way the staff treat you. I don’t think it’s somewhere we will go back to in a hurry.

Wilf's is known for breakfasts and lunches. For years cyclists, hikers and ramblers have been stopping in Staveley and Wilfs has been a big favourite. But all this time they have never experimented with Dinner -until now and they have nailed it. Believe me I have been to many Lakes eateries from L'Enclumbe to Lucy's but this is a winner. It's a select menu with excellent choices. Its only open on a Friday and Saturday - so its a test and could be described as a popup but its a classy one. Having spent a lot of time in France this food is what is known as rustica -great well cooked family food I have the Portobello mushroom and the Pork with red cabbage and it was delicious Also the great news for such great food is it was great value and we definitely plan to go again. Wilfs is next to Hawkshead Brewery and right next to the weir and waterfall so it is a great place to spend some time.

A nice cafe for lunch. However, the Rarebit was absolutely not Rarebit. It was cheese on toast. Rarebit is a thick sauce, like a thick roux with cheese, mustard and black pepper, possibly with beer in it, spread on toast and grilled. I was disappointed sufficiently to give just three stars. There are plenty of cafes in the area who make a fab rarebit.

We popped our head in and asked if they were dog friendly. We were greeted with a warm smile and a reassurance that they were very dog friendly. Clean, bright, and welcoming! The food was fresh, nicely presented, and really reasonably priced. We were offered water for the dogs and generally felt very content there. Would highly recommend!

Went for lunch with my husband as we've always liked this cafe. We both ordered a salad meal, I asked the member of staff who was taking the orders if the salad was vegan and she said yes. Sat down, food arrived about 5 minutes later, coleslaw and potato salad included. Asked the member of staff if it was vegan. She said yes. After 5 minutes another staff member approached to tell us it wasn't vegan, took our plates away and swapped out the salads for vegan alternatives, which were nice. Bit disappointed though, as never had this issue previously.

Lovely venue to meet with friends, as I did today. I chose a filter coffee and toasted tea cake.. Both under par.. The coffee pot was only half filled with hot water, thus only just filling the small cup I was given.. None left to top up... The tea cake was toasted yes, but hard and not nice and squidgy. The butter couldn't soak in as was cold. Either previously toasted or not fresh... Certainly not what I was expecting.

Arrived just before 9am on Sunday to have breakfast, quite a few other customers ahead of us so was expecting a wait, no problem with that. But the food came very quick and what a disappointment. The sausage was barely cooked and not hot , bacon dried up ,cold and was obviously from the day before. Coffee not good. Best part was beans and lovely fried eggs! Yes I could have aired my views at the time but we would have been late for our onward destination. I hope I got the kitchen staff on a bad day and it was a one off but won’t return

Awful ordering system! You order at the counter then wait for drinks. This leads to large slow queue. Very difficult with family and small children as can’t leave then at the table while you order (took 15mins in the queue) wasn’t busy just slow. Food average, small portions for price, ‘mega bacon bun’ just normal size. Staff pleasant enough just lacking any love. Plates definitely need updating. Salt and pepper empty on the tables.

All Covid rules followed, we called for lunch before going on to our hotel. I ordered a small all day breakfast and my husband a sausage sandwich with a tea and coffee, the tea bag was put into a disposable cup and then water poured in, I said I prefer my tea weak to which the server said we will give your more water, just wished they had left the tea bag out, when our meal arrived it was served on disposable plates, it didn’t look very appetising, I had half a slice of bacon and my fried egg was well done and not runny, it was so rubbery, the mushrooms were small pieces chopped up, the sausage was ok. My husband said his sandwich was ok. Lovely location out of the back, but not that thrilling if sat inside. I would not go again, not particularly friendly, got taken in by the lovely views but the food is not great. Sorry disappointed.

Paré para tomar un café y un pastel con mi novia. Ambos estábamos decepcionados con nuestros pasteles de bandeja. También me decepcionó que, a pesar de que comimos en la bandeja, los pasteles vinieron en platos de papel con cubiertos de plástico y nuestros lattes se sirvieron en vasos de papel. La mayoría de los otros lugares que visitamos han logrado quedarse con platos, cubiertos y tazas adecuados, ¿presumiblemente lavados en un lavavajillas? A diferencia de visitas anteriores, el lugar era tranquilo, frío y carente de ambiente. Probablemente lo deje un rato antes de regresar.

Con las hordas de visitantes en la zona no he vuelto a comer desde febrero. Me sorprendió la solicitud de un bollo de tocino para llevar que necesitaba completar un formulario de seguimiento y rastreo y, muy específico, párese aquí y luego párese allí para las solicitudes.Fabuloso bollo con 3 lonchas gruesas de tocino para luego pasear por el patio del molino bajo la lluvia (todavía no me siento cómodo para mezclar dentro) Pero ahora creo que me retiraré a la seguridad de mi hogar hasta que todo esto termine.No todos los clientes son turistas y es posible que no estén acostumbrados a que los Procedimientos Covid se hayan mantenido alejados de las hordas después de perder varios amigos a causa de este virus.

I am local and am a reasonably regular visitor to the cafe, but I was very disappointed when visiting last week to find the management had decided not to take my reusable mug. I had always thought they were an environmentally responsible company. It is not in the government guidelines to refuse reusable vessels and purely a management decision. I explained that they didn't need to touch my mug if I put it on their tray without its lid, they took the tray and filled a ceramic mug of theirs and poured it into my mug, returning it to me on the tray. The staff member was very surly, so I'll not be going there again in the foreseeable future.

Paré aquí para un desayuno tardío después de caminar en la nieve desde nuestro campamento a unas 2 millas de distancia. Está situado junto a la fábrica de cerveza Hawkshead, tan fácil de encontrar. Tan pronto como entramos al edificio, había bastantes personas haciendo cola en la caja registradora para hacer pedidos, y se tomaron muchos asientos. Afortunadamente, este lugar tiene muchos asientos arriba y abajo, así que encontrar una mesa no fue un gran problema.Pedimos dos de los grandes desayunos carnosos (7. 90 cada uno), que consisten en 2 huevos, 2 tocino, 2 salchichas, champiñones, tomate a la parrilla, tostadas gruesas y una taza de té / cafetera de café. Teníamos hambre, así que también pedimos una ronda de bollos (2 con mantequilla y mermelada por 1,50). Aunque casi 8 para un desayuno parece bastante caro, la calidad de la comida era muy buena, todo parecía de origen local y no de su supermercado. Muy sabroso. Y los bollos venían con mucha mantequilla y mermelada de fresa. En general, lo recomiendo encarecidamente, y este lugar admite perros, vimos algunos perros bien educados ir y venir durante el tiempo que estuvimos aquí.

He estado comiendo en Wilf's desde que comenzó Rock and Run en Ambleside (Dios sabe cuánto tiempo hace); y en su camioneta de catering móvil en los eventos de Mountain Biking, Orienteering y Fell Running en el norte de Inglaterra.Wilf's en Stavely admite perros y niños; el chile vegetariano es consistentemente bueno, los especiales también son buenos (el cordero al curry en esta vista fue excelente); los pasteles / bandejas horneados son solo el combustible para ciclistas y corredores que caen (el flapjack es especialmente 'fiebre del azúcar').Una objeción; No creo que el rarebit sea lo que solía ser desde el fondo del tiempo (aunque ese puede ser mi edad, el síndrome del viejo gruñón). El rarebit de Wilf solía ser casi una tostada gratinada: una tostada servida en un plato gratinado, sofocado en una salsa intensamente cursi, cremosa y mostaza. Parece haberse convertido en un poco de queso tostado ordinario.. . . aunque no va a impedir que venga mientras todavía estoy caliente y respirando y puedo subir a mi bicicleta o caminar por las colinas. . .

Hemos estado aquí muchas, muchas veces y hemos logrado caminar desde Kendal a lo largo del río en un hermoso día. Aunque llegó tarde para el almuerzo, el lugar todavía estaba bastante lleno (vacaciones de Semana Santa y un fin de semana), así que tuvimos la suerte de encontrar una mesa con vista al río en la terraza en la parte posterior de la cafetería. Es un gran lugar para disfrutar de su comida. Deliciosa papa de chaqueta (atún y guindilla) y un fabuloso queso con un increíble queso de calidad y una deliciosa ensalada para acompañarlo. Buen servicio rápido, nos alegramos de leer los periódicos y las revistas disponibles para pedir prestado, y cuando comencé a caminar de regreso a la cafetería para pedir más agua caliente en mi tetera, me la quitó un encantador servidor que Lo rellené por mí y lo devolví a nuestra mesa. El personal siempre es excelente y muy trabajador, pero este fue un gesto muy especial. Cuando nos fuimos, ya era tarde y "a la hora del té", pasamos varias rebanadas de pastel devoradas por clientes muy felices. La comida siempre es confiable, se utilizan ingredientes de buena calidad, su pan es delicioso (obtenga la ensalada Wilf's con una gran cuña), hummus delicioso y sabroso, chili vegetariano muy sabroso, y el queso es excelente (aún así, sé que Lo he mencionado antes). Tienen una buena conciencia de la alergia, por ejemplo, las papas fritas y los rellenos no contienen gluten, por lo que la ensalada también lo es (otras ensaladas pueden tener ingredientes que contienen gluten, pero solo avísenlas).

Whenever my wife & I are at home on a Sunday morning, we walk to Wifs Cafe via the riverside path and enjoy a hearty Sunday breakfast. I always have the Big Meaty. She prefers the Small Meaty. These cooked breakfasts are made of excellent quality ingredients (mushrooms, eggs, tomatoes, bacon, sausages, toast & tea) and are usually served promptly, allowing a short time to read the front few pages of the Sunday Times. We prefer the quiet of the rear room on the ground floor. Very good value for money.

Habiendo permanecido en los lagos por tres días, hicimos un esfuerzo para ir a cenar a última hora de la tarde (que en algún momento era una unidad de 20 millas) pero valió la pena. Finalmente, lo mejor para mí fue que le permitieron comprar cerveza en los locales de al lado y beber con su comida.

This cafe is located next to the Hawkshead Brewery and backs on to a river, where tables overlook a small weir. There is even a small fish ladder built into the weir to allow the fish to swim upstream and spawn.

Stopped here, on the recommendation of a friend, for a pot of tea after an exhausting day on the hill. Good scone but I could have used more milk with my tea. I will certainly return when next up there

Had a wee stop off here on way to Blackpool. It's a bit off the beaten track,but well worth it. Good variety,and everything we ordered was lovely. All in all a nice lunch,with lovely scenery,what more do you need.

We went out of our way to come here based on a friend’s review. Be sure to step out the back for the full experience on the river. Good hearty food at reasonable price. Veggie chili and rarebit both good and the veggie and the meat breakfasts were spot on. We were greeted by Suzanne who went out of her way to make us comfortable.

Five of us visited this cafe earlier this month for lunch, it was midweek so it was nice and quiet. The cafe is nice and spacious with a lovely outdoor seating area outside overlooking the river. The menu sounded really promising with lots of choice. However we found the food mediocre and disappointing. A couple of us had chicken sandwiches which consisted of the least amount of chicken possible on a sawdusty cheap bread roll with a blob of mayo and an unimaginative bit of salad. The veg chilli was pretty bland and tasteless. All in all we were distinctly unimpressed and won't be returning.

Great food and atmosphere, friendly staff. But coffee is not up to much. Very weak cafetiere, no taste at all.

I use Wilf's for lunches, occasional breakfasts and to meet people. The food is tasty, wel presnted and smilingly served and there is plenty of variety. So far as I know it's all made on the premises (OK, not the ice-cream) and they have very good salads.

Wilf’s cafe Gluten Free bread is the best I have ever tasted. Sometimes when they are busy they supplement it? I generally go for the Rarebit as I love their salads x

Came here at the recommendation of a local. Located in an industrial type setting, the place itself is a little oasis. We ate a bacon n brie baguette and cups of tea. Great selection of food and a nice outdoor seating area as well.

Fantastic food at a good price, the cafe was really busy but what do you expect in the Lakes in May! Would happily recommend and I’m looking forward to visiting again.

Visted here several years ago and would have recommended it to anyone. Now however I’m not so sure. Visited with my husband and two sons (toddler and newborn) to find that half of the downstairs is “adults only” and yet this areas has sofas and comfy seating and it’s downstairs so pram friendly. Perfect for sitting with a young family. So we were asked to move tables initially... to a table “next” to the adults area, so I’m not sure the reasoning behind it! There was another family of three who we clocked eyes with and could see they thought the same thing - they commented and said they’ve never heard anything like it....! (Which we agreed with!)

The food at Wilf’s is always amazing especially the salads.what more can you ask for on a beautiful spring day. My only little little neg is the tables need clearing faster, not the best sitting at a table that has the last customers cups.

I like wilfs, I hadn’t been in a while so was looking forward to a hearty lunch and as ever took the lovely veg chilli. One day I will try something else. It comes with a vibrant and tasty salad. I do like the kid free zone, it makes for a calmer experience just when it’s needed.

We only wanted a coffee and a cake as it was only 11.15 AM but had to queue for 20 minutes behind people ordering hot food and spending ages deciding what they wanted at the last minute Nice stuff but it needs organising a lot better Guess as its volunteer run it depends very much on what the staffing is on the day They need a separate area for those just having coffee etc rather than a meal

Tried the drive thru...waited and waited was nobody home?, Was it closed? Reversed out and entered the shop and waited at the counter and waited and waited....3 or 4 staff just chatting away oblivious to customers. 17:00 pm on Saturday. Outstanding service.

Lovely setting to relax and enjoy the views having lunch or just a drink. A few had lunch said was nice. Me personally thought expensive for soup but enjoyed my coffee. Worth it for the views.

Good location, pleasant staff but expensive for poor quality coffee and stale cake. Was offered a refund on the cake which I declined.
