I've commented on those negative comments before elsewhere! Yes, at certain times, the cafe does get busy with lots of hungry, thirsty cyclists queueing up. At those times, it will take a while to get served. Chill out! The reason that the cafe is busy and full of cyclists is because it is a good cyclists' cafe!dodgy said:Is this Country Kitchen café in Waddington any good? Mixed reviews online!
If people want instant service they should go down the road to the McDonalds in Clitheroe. If the staff make a mistake or forget something because they are rushed off their feet, just remind them - no problem.
It's a friendly place and cyclists can get the kind of refreshments that cyclists like at reasonable prices.
On one of my forum rides, we'd scheduled a stop at Country Kitchen but my lack of fitness meant that we descended Waddington Fell very close to the cafe's closing time. I think it was due to shut at 17:00 and we got there at 16:50. Despite that, there was no hint of "Sorry, we're about to close" - the staff welcomed us in and kept the cafe open for us until we were finished which was about 17:30. I think that kind of thing deserves a mention and that kind of cafe deserves our custom.
Don't we look satisfied? (L-R longers, Calum, PaulB, Me (ColinJ)). A member of staff even rushed out of the cafe to volunteer to take the photograph!
PS Damn - longers beats me again! It's bad enough him getting away from me on every hill, now he has to beat me at posting too!
