Cotton Weavers Cafe

The cafe upstairs serves top quality food wether it’s breakfast or lunch or just a browse around the ground floor, all sorts of gift ideas, you won’t be disappointed with your visit

What a waste of time!! 20 mins to order, 45 mins and still waiting to get order. This is the second time for such waits was assured last time that it wasn’t normal practice. Obviously is!

they wouldn't let us swap cake for a breakfast or change our mind, very slow service, grumpy staff, gone downhill. no sugars or salt n peppers available, staff not wearing hairnets in the kitchen. Ver carta

Came here for the first time with my baby, we usually go across the road to Gordon’s tea rooms but the menu is limited and not very budget friendly for me as I’m on maternity leave! I felt the menu at cotton weavers was much more reasonable and with more choice. The staff were lovely and friendly especially the lady with the Irish accent. Will be back!

Arrived at 12 o’clock ish, cafe was rather busy, assuming because of the Christmas markets on over the road. We ordered cheese and onion pie and corned beef hash, food arrived promptly and piping hot! Was the best cheese and onion pie my partner has ever had, and the hash was delicious! Staff were very friendly and attentive, will definitely come again

Been lots of times but won't be going again. A 40 minute wait for our food with lots of people arriving after us but being served before us. No apology from the staff. Very disappointing. When the food did finally arrive it really wasn't very nice and certainly not worth the wait. The burger van over the road is far better value and the staff there are friendlier too. Ver carta

Have been here several times over the years and always been great food and service but the last couple of times have been awful. Apart from a 40 minute plus wait on both occasions the food itself was terrible the salad on my plate had so much water on it the bottom of the sandwich was soggy the bacon on my husbands BLT was to hard to eat we didn’t say anything as we were not prepared for another lengthy wait I wrote to Cotton Weavers about my experience but have not had the courtesy of a reply, I hate leaving bad reviews but will not be returning

This cafe has been completely ruined since the days of the ploughman’s and sandwiches freshly made and the selection of cakes. Now, like most places, it’s all about making money and nothing about satisfied customers. An hour wait for cheese on toast and crumpets. The two stars I gave for the review are for the drinks we were given by way of apology for the wait, although we had bought more drinks during the hour. The food was fine when it arrived (but you can’t go too far wrong with toast and crumpets) but an hour waiting time with no warning is not acceptable so I would recommend to avoid unless you’ve got all day and you’re not that hungry.

There was a small queue waiting to be served when we arrived. I ordered two meals and drinks. We sat having our drinks watching other customers going to complain about the length of time they waited for their meals. After 3/4 of an hour I asked a waitress hoe much longer our meals would be . She returned saying not long 2-3 minutes. Then she returned apologising saying our order for the jacket potato hadn't been started , she asked if I would like a refund for the jacket or everything. I went to the counter and got a refund for everything but no apology from the person giving the refund. In fact they didn't even look at me!!! No customer service. I will not be returning !! Ver carta
