The Bench Keswick - Allerdale

We'd been in the town centre on a very busy Saturday afternoon. Started looking for a cafe just for a coffee and sit down, everywhere was packed. Spotted a cafe board down a tiny alley off the high street and was so glad I followed my gut!! This is a little cafe on the front of a jewellery shop/workshop. The service was quick and with a lovely smile. We only wanted a drink, but for future ref, there were other menus items like waffles and bagels etc, some vegan options too. We will definitely return!! A beautiful view as well and a little touch of binoculars in the window to have a peek at the hills nearby.

Without doubt, one of the nicest places we have been to for a while. The best carrot cake and espresso caramel brownie we have tasted. Make sure you go down one of the passageways off the High Street to find this lovely cafe with very pleasant staff. Just wish we lived closer

A great quirky little cafe in a jewellers shop. Pretty seating area, unusual coffees and snacks and delicious chocolates. Very friendly pleasant staff and owners. A must visit! Highly recommended!

Great little dog friendly place. Lady who served us was very welcoming friendly. The cheesecake was lovely. Hubby is going back to try the coffee chocolate deal next visit

The customer service was 10/10 and was matched by the food. So good we came back twice and will stop by again! Well done to all the staff that made this a nice experience, from Sarah, Mike and Owen the dancing baby ;
