Barnsdale Gardens

Highlight • Rest Area

Visit for several reasons. Good cafe with nice food and cakes. Plenty of tables inside and outside in the garden. My pictures of outside tables are not very good it's much nicer than they show. Excellent toilets and bike parking. All this before entering the gardens and paying. But it's also worth visiting the gardens many of which have featured on the BBC.

An absolute pleasure to return here!
Plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. Also, many places to leave your bike in sight from the cafe.
Staff is always pleasant friendly and helpful.
The menu is classic but very good value and staff are knowledgeable and very happy to adapt stuff for dietary requirements. The food came quickly even on a busy day and was fresh and tasty.
Beautiful location too!
