I stopped by on Thursday and inquired about gluten free scones (I’m English, but live in the United States). Unfortunately, they were out, but the chef stepped out and said he would make some and I could come back by later on that day or the next day. I went by just before they closed on the same day and the chef had made both fruit and cheese scones! As they were closing I picked some up to take away. They were excellent! I loved them so much, I returned with my spouse and cousin for breakfast the next day (also excellent) and we bought 3 different gf desserts (all absolutely fantastic!). Not only was the entire staff understanding and incredibly nice (they all went far above and beyond), the food is outstanding and the scones and desserts are not to be missed. I give The Cottage Kitchen food and staff my absolute highest recommendation.
For people not concerned with gluten I still give the Cottage Kitchen my highest recommendation as the food is absolutely outstanding. The breakfasts were fabulous and the desserts are sinfully delicious.
Absolutely delicious food. I was able to bring my gluten and dairy free partner here and there was plenty to choose from. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, really really yummy!
Decent place. They have a separate vegan and gluten free menu. Sufficient choices for all dietary preferences. I ordered a chicken flatbread but it had too much sauce. Hoping they can fix this.
Staff was helpful and service was quick.
Went for a breakfast on the weekend and after ordering, the chef here came out especially to check which of the vegan breakfast items would be OK for me, as I am celiac. I was then served most delicious breakfast...Hence I had to come and leave a review, as that level of customer care is really appreciated!
Lovely dog friendly place to eat. Had the breakfast which was really nice. Water and dog treats for the pooches. Very good value for money and the staff are lovely. Gluten free options spot on! Thank you
The North 's answer to Tesco's or Sainsbury's. I was pleased to find a great selection of products, although disappointed at the lack of gluten & lactose free products.
We came here a few weeks ago after seeing they stocked the bags of Red Bank coffee that we use at home.
It's a really light and spacious place and would be great for doing some WFH on the single desks, as well as meeting up with friends. The fire in the centre of the room makes it feel warm and cosy and, most importantly, the barista's really make a great coffee. There's also a good selection of cakes that include gluten free and vegan bakes to ensure that everyone is catered for.
Overall, a great addition to Kendal and we'll no doubt be back there soon!
The best place in South Lakeland for little ones by far. I've been here countless times. Such a lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Took my mum who is coeliac and she was so happy to be offered a gluten free brownie with her farrers coffee. Highly recommend!
Went for a full English, I'm coeliac so no sausage, we`ve been to the moon and back , but G/F sausage is too much to ask. Also black pudding, not even mentioned or served and for some reason no beans, all the other "full English " had them??? I was given an extra piece of bacon and charged full price. Will not be returning. G/F sausage , black pudding is available if cafe owners could be bothered to look.
