Cafe Autisan - Carta

A welcome respite on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday whilst completing a Treasure Trail in Whalley. Excellent GF chocolate cake

Cafe Autisan is in the grounds of Whalley Abbey Fantastic cafe, staff are always polite and friendly and it always looks clean Would highly recommend

Stopped for cake and tea after a look around the Abbey. The cake was absolutely delicious and the service really warm and friendly and the price very reasonable. Ver carta

Drove all the way to this cafe as was advertised as open however when we arrived at 1pm it was closed all day!! -appeared to be a staff meeting in progress, would have been helpful to know this in advance

Appreciated this cafe is run by autistic people and that is invaluable but lots of people dont know that and get aggravated with long cues.....does need someone to over see and keep things running smoothly ...rather disorganised and shambolic I am sorry to say

Is a nice cafe with nice food but they use takeaway packaging even for those sitting in. Whilst I appreciate is a social enterprise they really need to think about how much waste they are generating. I would avoid it in future for this very reason. I only drink black tea and they could not give me any extra hot water for the tea (it was a tad strong without charging me for another cup! Couldn't take the existing one from me and top it up either. I am not sure if that is a Covid issue (which has been found not be transmitted by touch .. or what. Ver carta

It was about 14:50 on a Sunday afternoon so I would have thought not an unreasonable time to be seeking a sandwich. We left in search of lunch (and found Holdens, which is excellent).

Wow I attempted to have a breakfast and a cup of coffee and it was a disaster. Initially they didn 't do breakfast so I settled for a sandwich and a coffee, the coffee arrived and it looked like warm dirty water and tasted nothing like coffee. After asking it was confirmed they had forgot to put the beans in the grinder therefore I was drinking water and coffee remnants, the second cup came and it looked like dirty dishwasher water and tasted metallic, I politely said forgot the coffee. Surprisingly a third cup came out no lie I was told I have tried to coffee and it 's nice I drank from this side of the cup therefore you drink from this side WOW WOW WOW!!
