Mr Tilley's is a well established coffee shop, a few years ago it expanded to the upstairs of the…read morebuilding, and at one point this was the smoking area. The cafe sells tea and coffee and soft drinks, sandwiches and cakes. They also do some hot meals with quiches and salad, and they do a lovely pie, peas and beetroot. All the food is fresh and extremely tasty. The staff are friendly and the price are very reasonable, the cafe is not to cramped especially upstairs. However, it is a little small for pushchairs and when there is one in the cafe, then if can create a bit of a obstacle.

The cafe is on two floors with the toilet upstairs, so its wheelchair accessible if you don't want the loo. Everyones friendly. Some of the cakes, weren't homemade, but everything else is. You couldn't spend more than £5.50 on a main course here. Sandwiches and a side salad come in at £3.40 - 80. It was very pleasant coming here.

We visited this little cafe for the first time a few weeks ago, and were very impressed! It's not…read morebeen open long, but has already gained a reputation for doing the best cooked breakfasts in Barrow - and deservedly so. The cafe itself is located on an industrial park a few minutes drive from the town centre, which probably means it misses out on a lot of the passing trade from town - however they seem to be very popular with students from the local college. The industrial park itself is not very well signposted unfortunately, but if you look for the block of small buildings with red drainpipes and roofs then you should find the cafe easily. It's welcoming when you walk in - bright and airy, with a comfy sofa by the door and all that day's newspapers to sit and read while you wait for your meal. I'm not sure what other food they do, but the breakfasts alone are worth going for! They serve them all day, and have a variety of different options written up on boards above the till - you can have an absolutely massive 'Trinity' breakfast for about £6, which seems fairly expensive at first until you realise it's HUGE, comes with tea and toast, and will easily fill you up for the rest of the day! It includes the works - bacon, sausage, beans, mushrooms, hash brown, tomato etc etc. You can also have a breakfast bun, or choose your own individual breakfast items in whatever combination you like. Our meals arrived really quickly, brought over by the chef himself who was very friendly. Everything was hot, well cooked and deliciouswell worth the price. I hope this place does well, as it really deserves to - they are not trying to do anything too ambitious, just delicious filling simple food, and they do it very well.

What a totally outstanding café!

The Wolfhouse café is part of small 'Wolfhouse' complex of converted outbuildings and wooden cabins also comprising a gift shop, a gallery, and a quirky garden with children's play area. The gallery was shut on our January visit, but everything that was open was in the best possible taste and oozing a relaxed charm. Although only going on one visit, the culinary firepower here seems to be beyond outstanding! Ignore the fact that their website lacks contact details or even an address - this is probably just them being arty! Instead, click through under 'Goods' to 'Savouries' http://wolfhousekitchen.co.uk/goods/savouries/ and 'Pâtisserie' http://wolfhousekitchen.co.uk/goods/patisserie-menu/patisserie-menu-2/ and feast your eyes. Both myself and my friend had different and interesting Pukka herbal tea blends, and a chalkboard advertised that their coffee beans were roasted by a local Lancaster business, with Valrhona hot chocolate, so I think they have the drinks covered. I had goat's cheese, pistachio and prune cake which I think may be this recipe http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/cheese_pistachio_and_85849 from The Little Paris Kitchen series on BBC2. My friend had a salted caramel slice, which I also tried and it was good. But my cake worked for me on a whole lot of levels - the colours, sweet-savoury flavours, the textures - see photo. The cake display was very impressive, with other options spread along the sweet-savoury spectrum. I note that the pâtisserie list on The Wolfhouse website just goes on and on and on, with 20-30 items on the list advertised as being available each day. This quote from their 'Savouries' webpage sums up the cheerfully inventive spirit, "When we run out of one thing, we find something else to cook. Simple! It's just so much more fun that way!" With so much inventive spirit, plus everything so well-sourced and made from scratch, I think we can safely say that this 30-seater café is a better option for the serious foodie than a lot of fine dining places. Plus, it is totally relaxed with great staff, and priced at not much above your average country tearoom. Highly recommended.
