Stone Close Cafe in South Lakeland

Wonderful food, great drinks and lovely staff.

I have been contacted by the owner of this venue asking for an explanation as to why I pnly gave them a one star rating. Perhaps I was a little harsh in my judgement? I have upgraded to two stars. Perhaps it was me? I felt that all the way through the meal we were hurried. The waitress appeared to be in a constant hurry for us to order and we felt pressurised throughout the meal. I got the impression you were short of staff? Not a particularly pleasant end to our day having just driven over 300 miles. I have to say the food was ok. The ambiance was far from conducive however.

We took our son for his 3oth birthday ,lovely staff supurb food their version of a currant favourite salt and pepper chips are unreal excellent house wines .we love this place .Dalton in furness is lucky to have them

A lovely meal and such lovely staff. I would highly recommend this place 👌

I am trying to be as objective as possible, writing this review.. 4.5 stars or 5 starsThe food was really good, we really enjoyed the vegetarian breakfast. I don't know who's the chef, but he's absolutely dedicated to his craft. The sausages were perfectly cooked, hash browns were crispy, the tomatoes were so juicy! The slices of bread were rightly toasted and adequate butter was provided.. The beans were fine. The vegetarian option included vegetarian bacon which I chose not to have, so I was given 2 extra sausages instead, and I thought, now that's a very generous portion :) The poached eggs were also perfectly cooked..My only issue was.. The customer service.. It was as if the people there, needed time to warm up to us; which is why I am hesitant to give 4.5 or 5 stars..

Not sure we may have hit a bad time but we were disappointed with our meals. Had the crispy salt and pepper squid- no sign of salt and pepper. My friend had the lasagne which was just that- not like the photo on here which shows salad and chips- just a dish of lasagne. I chose the fish pie which did come with a pleasant salad but because I declined a cheese topping just had mashed potatoes on top- not even browned (evidently they have no grill). Disappointed as had some lovely meals here in the past.

We ate here Friday and the food wasn’t nice at all. Firstly the fork I got given had crusty food on it. Secondly Nowhere on the menu does it say you have the gammon on top of a bed of onions it looked like a full onion had been put on the plate. The chicken tasted abit weird and the sticky toffee pudding was really dry not moist at all. The only good thing was the food was piping hot but I Wouldn’t eat here again

Well what can I say, been to alot off places around barrow, Ulverston etc but by far the best around for quality food, price and service a very quaint place no time scale for Being kicked out lol, Catherine I believe to run the place was very friendly and welcoming she was even worried why we had left some food not for the quality just our eyes were bigger than our bellys, would definitely go again without a doubt. Would advise anyone in the area to try this beautiful restaurant 😋

It's not a big resteraunt but it has a lovely ambiance, staff were very nice, and made you feel like a regular even if you're not. The food was reasonably priced with a good selection of hot and cold dishes. There are no steps, and it has a ramp up to the toilets, there's no parking outside however you can park in the co op car park across the road.

Brilliant service and the food was excellent, would recommend. I had steak diane and my hubby had veg enchilada.
