A. A.

Wonderful and friendly staff, I was catered for and made to feel so comfortable as soon as I entered premises. Very efficient and service is second to none, the food is glorious guys and to be fair with you I would of paid the same price for just one of these Eggs Benedict...2 of them just so so filling, great cafe and will definitely be visiting more regularly 😀 😊

K. H.

What an absolute treat for the village of Tarleton. Each dish freshly prepared. Perfect location. All completed with highly professional and courteous staff. Cannot recommend this beautiful eatery, high enough. xx

A. L.

Fantastic little village cafė. Not too crowded and very fast and efficient service. I had a pot of tea, toasted tea cake and some halloumi fries; very tasty indeed. I was served by Willow who was a great ambassador for the shop.

L. G.

Great little cafe, our first visit yesterday and it was totally worth it! Staff was very friendly and helpful even though it was very busy. Food was very good and quick. Recommended!

M. J.

Little expensive portion size on a takeout was smaller than expected. Lovely Victorian lemonade. 2 panini supposedly served with salad and crisps but if order chips charged for chips and get no salad or crisps 2 bottles of water £20.

J. C.

Really nice place for a quiet coffee. Entrance is at the rear of the business. Lots of tables outside and it's a proper sun trap as well. Nice variety on the menu all at reasonable prices

R. T.

Went today with friends, really enjoyed my fruit and nut waffles, good portion sizes. Perfect hot chocolate, just how I like it. Staff really nice, attentive but not kn your face. Recently taken over by new management in autumn, nothing to dislike at all. Will return happily.

g. t. b.

Had the full English breakfast, maybe a little bit more expensive than some places but you certainly get what you pay for, quick friendly service and great hot food in nice surrounding,loved it, would definitely go again

G. P.

Very nice cafe to visit. Food good and staff very friendly. Plenty of parking and several shop's nearby to browse after you are feeling refreshed. Will go back.

K. D.

Friendly staff and good soup! And a 3 cuppa pot of tea!! Building works going on outside at the moment but still easy access and plenty of parking.

J. H.

Delivered a 2" doorstop crusty sandwich for child's meal. Also delivered hard boiled eggs instead of poached on the eggs benedict.

V. B.

Breakfast was really good. Great options for those with a gluten intolerance.

D. W.

Very nice food although slow service as they were busy. Great chocolate dipping platter.

G. M.

Excellent food and service , we have tried a few places recently and this is by far the best , we had fish and chips today was superb.

A. W.

I so enjoyed the interview tonight on Radio 4 PM programme. The friendly atmosphere could be felt even though I’m way down south. Fair play to you all and hats off to Chris Brown. He put a big smile on my face. Can’t wait until I’m in the area and can see you all in person. Grub up!!

A. H.

Amazing afternoon tea. Both standard and vegan options were fresh and delicious.

A. K.

Boskins do takeaways and dine in. We have tried both and have never been let down. The menu is designed to cover most people's tastes including all day breakfast dishes. The food was delicious and always hot. They also have a specials menu. For those who want a beer or a glass of they have a cask ale and a lager pump. The staff were very friendly and welcoming with prompt service. Whilst they accept walk ins, I recommend that you make a booking, especially around lunch time.

A. M.

Generally good. Friendly staff and food good if a little on the expensive side.

N. P.

Always worth a look into Boskins in my opinion...

a. m.

D. t.

THE AFTERNOON TEA'S ARE FANTASTIC

C. S.

Cosy little café. Generous portions, not keen on the huge chips

M. M.

Truly lovely breakfast and friendly staff

P. C.

Brilliant, lovely staff , level access ample off street parking, Coffee on par for such an establishment. What isn't there to like 5 stars plus.

V. G.

Heard the place is run by the only Brit to ever win the Alpine World Cup on 22 January 2022, Dave Ryding. Well done, Dave, and fingers crossed for another success at the Beijing Olympics!

P. L.

This place is very useful for if your child deserves a treat. They have got from small little bizesize treats, to mountain size ice cream sundaes. This place is clean and has reasonable prices to the standard of the refreshment. It is also a great place for afternoon tea or a light lunch. This is great for children and the older generation. It is also avaliable to sit outside if you have a dog or it is a hot summer's day. Great job! 👍

M. O.

Very nice setting for afternoon tea or something more substantial.

S.

Best Coffee around!! Had a lovely breakfast here this morning. Its our first visit and we will certainly be returning. 5* service

R. S.

Once again my friend & I had our monthly get together at 'The Chocolate Rooms'. We are never disappointed. Lovely smoked salmon & cream cheese sandwiches served with coleslaw, hand cooked crisps & salad plus a pot of tea...followed later with a decaff cappuccino & a delicious mince pie ( it's Christmas after all). Absolutely wonderful. We love it there. It's a real gem for our village. Thank you.

C. S.

Would 100% Recommend, Staff are lovely and extremely helpful with getting information regarding GF allergens. The food was unbelievable and we will definitely be back in!!

c. m.

Great breakfast, worth a visit 👍

P. H.

Friendly, welcoming staff. Lovely coffee and hot chocolate. Good choice of cakes and scones. I haven't tried a meal there yet, but the menu looks inviting.

L. M.

Lovely brunch of smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on croissant. Coffee is fabulous! Also there's a great chocolate, tea and coffee shop with some really special stuff. Staff were really friendly too :-)

P. J.

So very grateful Boskins Cafe can serve takeaways, really have enjoyed their yummy bacon on toast & drinks en route for walks with my friend.Will look forward to dining inside when they can reopen!

V. B.

Really great coffee.. Not been in since Choc Amor sold it.. Nice simple menu.. Good honest food.. Great options for Sunday cyclists with their all day breakfast options.. Will definitely visit more regularly

m. a.

I recently started a Ketogenic lifestyle and the menu here is heavily loaded towards flatbread etc but the chef/owner restyled a salmon salad for me and it was outstanding. New management has made several changes but kept the best bits and any future plans should benefit loyal clients. The menu is interesting and home made cakes and pastries would be a treat for a ladies luncheon or club meetings. They are willing to cater for bookings. The venue is pretty and parking free.

V. S.

Lovely little boutique style cafe, with emphasis on specialist chocolates in the shop as the previous owner is a chocalatier! Very tasty food, and good service. Not cheap (£20 for two hot drinks, soup/bread and quiche/salad) but all homemade and worth the money. Plenty of non dairy options for hot drinks, including soya and almond milk. Choice of light or more robust meals includes vegetarian options, plus good range of cakes and deserts.

C. H.

Always a great welcome. The food was really well cooked. Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, sounds so simple but it was done perfectly.

I. L.

1st visit today won't be the last curry excellent went with my friend and god daughter everyone of us agreed.

R. M.

Stopped off today on a bike ride. Sausage on toast and piping hot coffee fueled the rest of our ride. Probably a bit expensive but it's posh round that end 😆. Was nice though 👍👍👍

C. C.
