    Popped in here for a spot of lunch on a sunny Thursday afternoon. With it being such a nice day, we…read moredecided to sit outside to enjoy the sun. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough chairs so we had to ask inside to borrow some. Also, the majority of the tables outside hadn't been cleared with dirty cups and plates still left out. We ordered a sandwich and a toastie from the lunchtime menu, which took ages to arrive (at least 30 minutes, far too long for just a sandwich). The food itself was OK. This cafe has so much potential, so it was a shame to have such a poor experience on this visit. My feedback to the management would be, - Get a sign put up on the building with the cafe name on it. - Create a website with all the menu options on it. - Offer free WiFi to customers. - Provide more outdoor seating. - On our visit the staff looked stressed and unable to keep up with the pace of orders. It felt like a kitchen manager was needed to give then some direction/leadership.

    I reviewed the café in Rothwell Park before it changed owner and name and, having been told how…read moremuch better it had got I decided to pay a return visit. My first impression was that the place does look better although it was a bit messy the day I visited and sadly they store a big jumble of summer stuff in an alcove next to the dining area through the winter months which doesn't look good. The food is ok but won't win any prizes and the coffee is pretty standard. All this wouldn't matter too much as this is a handy place to get refreshments whilst visiting the park but for some reason they feel justified in charging city centre prices for a fairly bland café experience. It's good to see that the Pavillion is working, with some considerable success, to be an integral part of the community, they do special festive meals and they are dog friendly (which is a real plus for any park establishment).
