Visited on Wednesday 1.45. Had to queue to have temperatures taken markings on the floor not adhered to! Our table which was pre booked was still occupied so taken to another one,got there and the waiter shouted over it hadn’t been cleaned so we were stood waiting and I’m disabled so after 10 minutes my daughter asked if someone could clean the table. Looking over there was a large queue not social distanced to pay my daughter was anxious and asked a waitress why it was allowed to be like that as we were told it was table service and pay at the table as per government guidelines! We chose off the new menu which we were disappointed with as we’ve been going since it opened,decided soup and a sandwich the soup was way to thick and the bread roll was so hard we struggled to eat in fact one of us left most of it. The menu is a lot of pasta and pizza and some of the regular food has been taken off the menu. The cheese on toast we loved has disappeared along with specials. We felt there were to many people in and it took over an hour to get our food not our usual enjoyable lunch. We won’t be back until better covid guidelines are adhered to and the lunch time menu improves.

Lovely food and great service. Lovely new atmosphere. Decorated beautifully.
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessOn arrival covid measures appeared great but people were queuing close to each other whilst waiting to be booked in and temp taken etc. Love the new decor, food was great and quick service at busy period. Lots of people walking around and did feel like people were brushing past me whilst moving about. Was also shocked to see a table not being wiped down between 2 different bookings and ice-cream cones that customers had ordered being served with bare hands of staff. Also some staff didn't have visors or masks on but most had a visor on. I was looking forward to looking at the Christmas decorations but it was too buys to be able to do with social distancing. But It hopefully means the business is doing which is a great thing.
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessFirst time since lockdown eating out we chose the bake house and we were not disappointed. The food was perfect we each had different meals and all were delicious. For such a busy place the staff all looked organised, well managed and clearly had everything under very good control, waiting Staff and kitchen. In fact the staff all looked very calm and very friendly considering the amount of customers. A very well organised team in my opinion, and this proved with the service as well as the Food delivered. Will certainly be back soon.
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessFood was delicious. No complaints. I was concerned there were a number of staff not wearing face coverings. There was an exemption lanyard for one member but not all. Can’t fault the venue or the door tho. Thank you..
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessHad first meal out yesterday, food was delicious and piping hot. It was very busy, did think some tables were too close together , which made me feel a little uncomfortable. The new decor etc was lovely very attractively finished and the chairs were comfy. My second problem came when I went to the bathroom, the paper towel holder was next to the loo and not over or near the sink, not very hygenic.

The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-Furness5 star.
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessBeen many times to The Bakehouse and the food has always been excellent. The newly refurbishment restaurant is outstanding the whole look is stylish but still keeps the country feel to it. Staff were all friendly and efficient as always and nothing was too much trouble. I need that there were no mirrors in the ladies toilets. Well done.
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessOn arrival the covid checking was good, and the waitresses were very good. The one thing was we waited for 40 minutes for our meals to arrive, and we'd already finished our drinks. This was for a lunchtime booking.
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessMy wife and I enjoyed the afternoon tea at Cedar Manor. The whole experience was brilliant! The setting was beautiful. The service from Jonathan was amazing - really nice guy, enjoyed chatting to him. The savoury starters were all extremely tasty. And then the tiered platter with the cakes and various patisseries was incredible. Gotta say, the stars of the show were the buttermilk scones. Probably the best scones I've ever had. They also offered a great range of teas and coffee, which complemented all the food wonderfully. Can't fault it! Will be returning as soon as we're back in the Lakes.
Cedar Manor – WindermereCouldn’t fault service, setting or food. Outstanding. Staff very friendly and hard working. Maybe helpful to have clearer signage re how to find parking in front of Bakehouse. It’s very tucked away especially in the dark. At first it feels like it’s all closed until you venture to the side.
The Bakehouse – Barrow-in-FurnessThe place, atmosphere and food were great. However service has haphazard, we had to ask for everything more than once, there appeared to be a lot of floor staff just wondering, the cakes had no labels and the table wasn’t cleared until we asked. It took 2 hours for for 2 course. It wouldn’t stop us coming again but we would hope for better service.
