Although we were originally heading for Gillams, location and general availability of tables (it…read morewas Father's Day AND the Stan Laurel 'Another Fine Fest' over this weekend, so many places had taken booking or were full to the rafters) meant we decided to have a late breakfast / brunch / lunch at The Hot Mango instead. The other half's parents live in the town so have frequented The Hot Mango a number of times but this was my first visit. Our table did have a reserved sign on but not until 1.30pm - it was around 12pm at this point - and the waitress was lovely and welcoming, encouraging us to take a seat despite this. We ordered some drinks and looked over the menu. Well, we were presented with three menus, which was a tad confusing; it transpired that the main 'formal' menu was only to show us the drinks options, and then there was breakfast served until 3pm, and then a main Sunday lunch menu, with roasts and hot or cold sandwiches. Once we managed to get our heads around this, it was easy enough to decide what we each wanted! Not wanting anything too heavy, I ordered a simple sausage & bacon roll with red sauce, and split a portion of chips on the table for £1; for the record, I also snaffled some salad from the other half's baguette but that's nowhere near as exciting as chips. The roll was lovely and soft - proper white bread - with plenty of butter seeping in as it was warmed by the sausage & bacon. It was a bit of a treat but nothing crazy, and totally worth it. Other dishes around the table were mushrooms on toast, an omelette with hash browns on the side, and a goats cheese & roasted vegetable baguette. It really is a menu with something for everyone, especially if you want different types of meals i.e. breakfast vs. Sunday dinner. A friendly, relaxed environment which reflects the feel of Ulverston as a whole with some tasty food to boot.

Although the young people working there have always been extremely pleasant, there is one older waitress who appears as glum as the owner, though if he was my boss, I would be equally down in the dumps. He has clearly never heard of the saying the customer is always right, and on one occasion, had an argument with a friend of mine because she wanted unsweetened soya milk in her tea (he could have walked through to his shop to get some, but instead, verbally attacked her in front of a tearoom full of customers). During the last few years, there have been times when it has been warmer outside than in this tearoom (maybe it was the frostiness of the owner). He was also insisting on people wearing masks even if they were exempt, and when there was no government requirement for them to do so. Instead of being able to look for a seat without a chaperone, you now have to stand behind a barrier (no doubt to be vetted by the owner) before you are let in and not given a seat of your choice. Gilliam's website states that the tearooms offer the same quality and service that the Gilliam family is famous for, but in my experience, this could not be further from the truth. If the owner can afford to treat people in such an appalling manner, he is obviously charging any remaining customers he does have way too much money.

The trouble with sitting at the back of the shop, I find, is it gives you time to look around you at all the goodies which pack the shelves. Worth mentioning are the various jams and pickles made by local companies, such as Damels Pickles and the Hawkeshead Relish Company.
