What helensK8030DK doesn't like about Cottage Kitchen:
This cafe used to be our go to stop for food. Visited the other day for lunch again after not visiting for a long time due to covid. Great covid measures taken but was really disappointed with the quality and portion sizes of the food... View all feedback. What SolLakes likes about Cottage Kitchen:
Staff welcoming and friendly. Speedy service. Great breakfast. We had full English, small English and a sausage ciabatta roll, tea and juice. Reasonable price, very tasty food. Will visit again next time I’m visiting Kendal. Recommended. No pictures as we were too keen to eat. View all feedback.
