The Lamppost Cafe Burrs Country Park

Lovely friendly staff and great coffee and cake Shake the pub across the road doesn’t have the staff in this lovely cafe/resturant

Had the most amazing Afternoon Tea…the right combination of sandwiches…savouries and cakes washed down with plenty of tea and coffee. The service was excellent and it was a lovely touch having the owners come to our table. They even kindly boxed up our leftovers. I would highly recommend a visit. Thank you for a great experience.

Absolutely love this cafe, staff are very friendly and professional, the owner always takes time to come and speak to us. The food is always made to a high standard and quality food products used. We have been for breakfast, lunch, coffee and cake on numerous occasions and never had a bad experience. They also do many gluten free options which is why we keep coming back.

Been twice now. The first time we had a very tasty salmon cream cheese bagel, with salad leaves which were excellent. The second time we popped in for 2 flat white coffees. They were superb and probably up there with the best we've ever had. Those Peruvian beans they use which are roasted in Manchester are a winner. A highly recommended cafe in a lovely beauty spot. It does get busy at week-ends and with limited seating inside you may have to wait for a table for two. We went midweek and there was plenty of room.

Horrible experience, myself and my daughter were made to feel extremely unwelcome. Staff reluctant to find us a table as there were only two of us and the only tables they had seated 4 or more. When eventually we were seated (and by that I mean reluctantly asked to perch on the end of the largest table they had?! , we were then approached by who I think was the owner, in a very rude unfriendly manner, asking if someone (a member of her staff had seated us there. Insinuating by her tone of voice that we had chosen the table ourselves and she was not happy about it as we had taken up 'valuable space '. When I informed her that we had indeed been seated there by a member of her staff, she was clearly annoyed and then proceeded to ask me to remove my daughter 's small stroller pram and leave it outside. We are nice people and I have never been made to feel so unwelcome. Seems to be plenty of nice treatment for dogs, but not a mother and her very well behaved little girl. Isn 't this meant to be a community cafe, where everyone is welcome? Certainly doesn 't feel that way! Will absolutely not be returning and neither will the rest of my family, who on hearing about this were utterly horrified.
