Mathilde's Cafe - South Lakeland

Been coming here for many years and the food is excellent, lots of things with a Scandinavian twist. Definitely recommend the cakes!

A but if a different menu with a Scandi twist. Lovely setting with shop and gallery yes we did purchase some art) to explore after coffee and snacks. The cakes looked great and our choices were both great, had to get something else to take away which was just as good. Went back on another day for breakfast lovely tasty eggs, and we bought some prints this time to adorn our walls.

Called in for coffee mid morning and were so impressed that we went back for lunch. Lovely view from the window, almost like an artwork itself. Staff friendly and cheerful, service great. Food excellent in every way, served on beautiful pottery with tasteful style all around. Toilets beautifully clean and even a pastel art exhibition to enjoy on the way. Loved this place and will definitely be coming back as often as possible.

This is such a lovely café! We called in after a long walk and had a very welcome pot of tea with a slice of scandi tea loaf. It was so delicious we called in the next day too after another walk and ordered the same again! There were lots of other delicious items on the menu. Even the crockery was gorgeous!!

The cake is delicious, the staff is helpful, and the ambiance is great. It's a bit expensive, but overall fantastic. The location in Grasmere is wonderful, and the abundance of outdoor seating with a lovely view is especially enjoyable on a sunny day.
