Cafe Morrisons - Barrow-in-Furness

After nearly three years since my last visit to the Barrow in Furness store, I decided to stop in for a delicious all-day breakfast. I was feeling hungry and remembered how pleasant my previous visit was. However, I was extremely disappointed this time. Most of the self-serve drink units were not working due to cleaning, although there was no sign of anyone actually cleaning. The machines were covered in dust and dirt. The coffee cups, while warm from being run through a dishwasher, appeared to have been washed in dirty water or were stained brown from overuse. The utensils were in a similar state. When we placed our order, the cashier asked us which table we were sitting at. There were no signs instructing customers to choose a table before ordering, so my wife and I were unaware of this rule. The cashier rudely instructed us to choose a table so she could put our order through. My wife politely requested no egg with her meal, but the cashier huffed at her. In previous visits, my wife had asked for an extra sausage or bacon instead of the egg, but the cashier rolled her eyes and snapped at my wife, saying that items could be removed from a meal but not added. However, I was able to add black pudding as an extra with my meal. Feeling like an inconvenience, we patiently waited for our food at our table. I noticed that the table was still dirty from its previous occupants and asked for something to clean it with. Before I could finish asking, I was abruptly cut off and told the table had already been cleaned. Despite the good food arriving promptly and tasting as nice as I remembered, I believe this will be my last visit due to the poor customer service my wife and I experienced. Especially during a global pandemic with cases on the rise, I expected higher standards of cleanliness and hygiene.

The coffee from the machine was lukewarm, there was a very limited menu selection, and the service was slow. The tables were dirty and not cleared, overall a very disappointing experience this time. Apologies.

The restaurant was excellent - very clean and followed all the rules. The staff was helpful, and the food was well-cooked and served quickly. I will definitely go back if I'm in the area.

First time back in Barrow in almost 20 years and after a night out on the **** to celebrate : , I just fancied something to eat to settle the stomach and ease that one too many , morning after feeling. So, after walking to view a rental property through horizontal hail stones in (what some of the locals call downtown Beirut , which is soon to be shortlisted as a location for the next zombie apocalypse film, i walked into the local Morrissons on Saturday morning about 11am looking forward to a hearty breakfast. After carefully considering the options, I ordered the Big Daddy . Little did I know, I was in for big disappointment. Instead of the 3 meaty sausages, 3 thick rashers of bacon, 3 hash browns,2 sunny side up fresh soft eggs, 1 round of fried bread, Heinz beans, mushrooms, black pudding x2, and tomatoes (with an e i was presented with the largest pile of inedible **** I 've had the misfortune of looking at since my first xmas dinner with a previous girlfriends family almost 30 yrs ago, a memorable experience indeed....., (Everything cooked at the same time on the same heat the night before, and yes, I was mighty glad to have had a few when embarking upon that meal I can tell you . Anyway, I digress, back to Morrisons. The sausages were re deep fried warm ups, no idea what they were made of (i feared the worse when I i noticed the adjacent barber shop . Thankfully they were still hot, and despite their burnt and crispy appearance, were just about edible. (You just can 't beat a bit of Long Pig . The bacon was wafer thin, and i mean transparrent, similar to that of a skin graft, cold and still squealing (not fully cooked , the hash browns were crunchy on the outside, semi cooked on the inside, eggs, now i used to play squash occasionally, and hell yea baby you could play a whole tournament with these puppies. They looked like they had been hanging around since last xmas. Fried bread, that was Ok! HURRAH or is it Hooray, something that they can cook, Mushrooms, they were once, I 'm sure of it pre cooking, Heinz beans, yea right, if they were Heinz, then that big black sausage shaped cigar thing in the yard is an air balloon! And yes, where were the two pieces of black pudding? Either I was so hungover, I do not remember eating them (which is highly unlikley or they must have done a runner from kitchen to table....or maybe they were even more thinly cut than the bacon and were completely transparrent on the plate. Either way it was a total mystery to me where they went. And yes, if I were feeling a little less fragile at the time, I would have offered some constructive advice and guidance on HOW TO COOK A DECENT BREAKFAST . Come on Morrissons, rise to the challenge and up your game in the breakfast department! So to sum up, if you need a good breakfast, please don 't go to Morrissons Barrow In Furness, but instead go to one of the local independants like the Seabreeze cafe (Church Street about 5 mins away in town, it is far superior, their fish n chips are also excellent.

I had fish and chips here and it was very nice the cafe was so busy ,the staff were rushed off their feet I had a 10 min wait but I was told there was a wait,absolutely great,the place was great very clean ,it's a supermarket not a gourmet restaurant if you want 5* go to the lake district and pay top dollar ,well done Morrison's.
