Wonderful place, great ethos, very welcoming team, interested in the community and actively involved. Tea bread and soup were both excellent. Loved the monthly newspaper. A lot of hard work and effort, clearly from the soul, go into everything offered here. I cannot recommend more highly. I wish I lived 3 minutes rather than 3 hours away.
Wonderful and welcoming cafe such that I ended up making a habit of visiting for a morning coffee most days I'm visiting Keswick. They're all about the fresh, local and ethically sourced produce.
The scones and cakes are amazing and the coffee is really well made. Slightly telling is just how popular it is with the locals. You get the impression they owners know most of the people in the cafe.
Speaking of locals, if you get there at the right time, one of the locals may well be paying the piano. If he isn't there, as I understand it, pianists are welcome to jump in his seat. So I've heard anyway. I've yet to see it happen.
One thing to be aware of is that they're a cash only place so make sure you visit one of the dwindling Keswick cash machines before you wander in.
Highly recommended for a tea/coffee and cake/scone. I've not had a meal there but from what I've seen, they look great.
Absolutely delightful place with locally sourced and made food, probably very reasonably describing it as the "friendliest Cafe in Keswick."
Blown away by the gentle atmosphere and wholesome connection; by the end of lunch, Ian knew most of the names of our party of 12. Food was delicious. Recommended.
Loved this unusual little cafe. The owners were so welcoming, I could have stayed there easily all day. Especially nice when a gentleman walked in and played a little tune on the piano. I just had to buy one of the lovely coffee mugs to remind me of my visit. Excellent.
Chinty & Ian always greet you with a warm smile and friendly chatter. The food is fresh and delicious, especially the scones. An absolute must visit cafe in Keswick for visitors and locals alike. I always recommend my hotel guests to visit, and they never come away disappointed. You can even twinkle the keys of the piano if you like!
A beautiful artist in her element, the coffee and scones exceptional, the artwork around exquisite X 😍
It's like stepping in someone's home, and getting food cooked for you. The menu is limited but don't let that put you off, there's something to eat for everyone. The owners are friendly and will ensure you're fed and happy. We had breakfast, scrambled eggs were yummy.
Chinty’s cafe, off the Main Streets in Keswick. Great service and reasonably priced.
Plenty of choices and welcoming atmosphere. Would highly recommend.
This charming cafe is a delight. Super relaxed and quirky with interesting posters and items on the walls. We sat on the comfiest sofa and enjoyed a beautiful beetroot soup and sourdough cheese and onion toastie (locally sourced ingredients) with a flat white. A large bottle of ice cold water was also placed on our table. Great background music too! We could have quite happily fallen to sleep afterwards. Will most definitely reccomend to others and be coming back ourselves next time we’re in keswick. Lovely, friendly staff. We stumbled upon a little hidden gem!
Small intimate cafe, mostly local people are there. I go in with my sister, chinty and her husband are very friendly and coffee and food is lovely. And there are different nick nacks to buy, including lovely pottery.
