Herdwicks Cafe

We visited this lovely cafe several times during our recent visit to the Coniston area. The team are very friendly and they made us feel very welcome, especially the dog! Their food and drink choices are good, the food is exceptional and very generous on portion sizes - do not miss them off of your places to go 😋

Lovely very dog friendly cafe. I love the idea for the dogs to lie on the sheep rugs. My frenchie loved it. The staff is very friendly and the food was amazing. No problem to cater for dietary preferences either. Highly recommended.

Stopped off here prior to climbing up Old Man Coniston. Had the beans on toast and some of the baked goods along side tea and coffee. Atmosphere was lovely and lots to look at, enjoyed looking at the needlefelted art in the hall near the toilets aswell!

Very nice family run cafe. Had a great breakfast in the outdoor area.

Great dog friendly cafe with good quality food, freshly made and sourced locally. Always enjoy a visit here with or without the dog!

This place is so comfortable to sit and have a drink. Staff are warm and friendly. Our Bailey's coffee and double hot chocolate were delicious. The sheep-themed decor is ever so sweet, yet tasteful. A variety of music plays in the background (not all of it to certain staff's tastes), but it's not loud. This place was recommended by Tourist Information and I'm so pleased it was.

Usually fine, however man serving had no time for customers. Food was mediocre, coffee was warm verging on cold. Interior looked like it needed a good clean- quite scruffy. Usually there are nice items from the local artist but were only a few items.

Interesting little cafe with lots of outside eating. food was good and team were happy even though it was really busy and 30 min wait on food... worth the wait. check out the specials before ordering!!
