As someone who was born and raised in Meanwood, I enjoy returning occasionally.
The park always brings back happy memories.
We visited the Three Cottages Cafe with high hopes having read the good reviews. We went a couple of years ago on a bitterly cold day and appreciated some delicious soup and a hot chocolate.
Sadly today, the soup was off the menu. The ham and cheese toastie was nice but nothing special considering the price.
For the 5 of us, the bill was £53.
The eating area was outdoors, which was nice on this sunny day.
Service was good, but could have been a bit friendlier.
I'm very happy to support local businesses and I really wanted this lunch to be something special. Unfortunately, I was left disappointed.
The single toilet is in need of some TLC but large enough for a wheelchair and has a changing table.
The small car park is free.
Disabled access is good.
Lovely cafe and bar next to Meanwood Park, with an impressive array of very delicious looking bakes and cakes (brownies, blondies, pastries, etc). Good range of drinks, including some lager beers (Birra Moretti) and it was nice that they offer table service, and staff were very prompt. Lunch time menu as well offering salads, soups and other dishes. Lovely to visit on a sunny afternoon, and there is some indoor seating as well.
Sadly the cafe had completely run out of ice cream when we arrived.
Overall it was a lovely experience, except their one toilet was pretty dire. The toilet is disabled-friendly, has a baby changing table, and is unisex. There were endless queues for the loo, and I was disappointed to find it wasn’t well maintained or checked on - the sink was blocked, there was water (or other fluids) all over the floor, and there were no hand towels.
Great little cafe with superb customer service from Rachel and Rob with a sausage, bacon and egg ciabatta sandwich.
Quick service with a great atmosphere and lots of options to choose from.
I will certainly recommend wonderful cafe this to friends who visit the area.
