Just passing so called in for a coffee- not officially open but were made to feel welcome and they were happy to provide drinks for us. Staff were helpful and polite and we were pleased to participate in their training! Good luck with your official opening on Monday!

During a day out at Beeston Castle 🏰 we popped into the Lockgate coffee house as it was very close by. It was a morning visit for a coffee ☕️ hot chocolate and a pot of tea. Upon entering, the surroundings are lovely and a little quirky, I'd say. The staff are very friendly and our orders were taken promptly. The beverages ☕️ we ordered came pretty quickly and they were of good quality and a very reasonable price. 👌🏿 Overall, we enjoyed our coffee and tea stop, and i would definitely visit again. Maybe I'd try some food on the next visit. I'd highly recommend this independent coffee house . There are toilets 🚻 and the place is dog 🐕 friendly with outside seating areas outside.

Wow ! Lovely venue and friendly team. Best Full English breakfast in a long time. First visit but will definitely be back.

Stopped off on my canal walk from Chester to Nantwich. Perfect for a pastry & hot pot of tea. Thank you for great service, clean toilets, & being friendly.

Stopped here on a visit to cheshire on 28/3/22. Beautiful little boutique coffee house. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The food was amazing, lovely breakfasts. Home made blueberry scones baked that morning. Loose leaf tea in special tea pots, view of the locks/canal. Toilets were spotless. Definitely going there again on our next visit, would highly recommend. Also dog friendly with home made dog treats and drinks also available. Keep up the hard work ladies your coffee house is 5*. Food was too nice I forgot to take pics but will next time.

Nice, welcoming cafe on the A49 at Beeston. Ideal for passing cyclists, motorcyclists or motorists. Great to use as a starting/ finishing point for walks along the canal, up to the castle or onto the Sandstone Trail. Seating indoors or outside on a large deck overlooking the canal and surrounding countryside. Gorgeous today in the sunshine. Cakes, scones, sandwiches, and ice cream or a variety of light meals available. Most of our walking group usually opt for scrambled eggs with cherry tomatoes and smoked salmon or poached eggs with spinach and hollandaise sauce, both served with toast, always a generous serving and always delicious. Definitely good value for money. Service can be a bit slow at busy times but it's worth it for the welcome and quality of refreshments.

Friendly helpful service and a great location with easy parking . A little pricey but a pleasant experience . Have to say superb coffee!

Really delicious food and great service! The croissants and baked goods were my favourite. Highly recommend.

A real little gem of a cafe. We stopped by for some lunch before heading out onto the canal with my wife's uncle, aboard his wood fired pizza boat! 🍕 Great selection of food and drinks with comfortable seating both inside and out. There's even the occasional train that whizzes past which our young daughter loved spotting 🚄 A proper little quirky cafe, great customer service - couldn't do enough for us and made our food stop off pleasant and enjoyable. Good value for money and proper real tea on offer too! When we're back - we will return ❤

Fabulous little coffee shop. Great tasting soups, sandwiches and cakes. Friendly service.

Lovely cafe overlooking a small river and canal. Excellent food, cakes and hot drinks. Lovely outside decking and patio area available. Dogs are welcome too 🙂

Had a lovely caramel iced coffee and some lunch of a very tasty salmon quiche. Really lovely atmosphere and a great outdoor area. My dog was also very happy meeting the staff and having a puppacinno

Lovely place for breakfast/lunch, nice decor and very friendly staff! Only downside for colder months is that tables are quite close together so feels small but in the summer when you can sit on the decking and look out to the canal it will be gorgeous!

Lovely little coffee shop. Staff were very friendly, and the afternoon tea was delicious

Family day out to Beeston. The weather was a little chilly so decided to see what’s close by rather than sitting on an outdoor bench. Everything was great, the food is a sorry sight for those with dairy intolerances because I wanted everything. However, everyone loved everything and more than catered for the likes of me. Would definitely come back, even if it’s just popping in for a cake or sausage roll

Lovely place after visit to Beeston Castle. The fairly unique Iron lock is a few minutes away. Food of v good quality. Ploughman's was excellent

I Visited this place twice. Once on the way to Shrewsbury for a quick coffee. Loved the vibe and look of the food so stopped for breakfast. It was very nice and they are very popular with dogs.

A wonderful accidental find and very highly recommended. A lovely, warm, quirky and welcoming establishment. Very helpful and friendly staff provide great service. The food and drink was very good too and I will definitely be visiting again. So refreshing to find such a rare gem after enduring the mediocrity of endless Costa Coffee and Starbucks. Try it - you won’t be disappointed 👍😃

Spotted this wonderful café here on Google maps and having ready the reviews decided to stop for lunch today on our journey from Glasgow to Shropshire. My wife and I shared the Farmers Platter and it was everything we expected and more. Generous portions with a variety of great flavours.

A good coffee and hot chocolate with a nice peace of tiffin. Served by great staff, in a pleasant setting. The choice of cakes was a little restricted. We will be going again!

Wow what a find! We were leaving Wrenbury nearby after a weekend away and looking for somewhere to have some breakfast before setting off and we just happened come across this gem! I ordered the full English and my partner had a bacon sandwich which were both excellent but we also took away one of their chocolate covered croissants, the best croissant I’ve ever eaten, and a sausage roll the size of a beef wellington! Honestly this place is a must try if in the area it was incredible

Lovely place with comfy seating and nice atmosphere. The food was delicious although took quite a long time. The dessert options were a little too 'rustic' for my Granny, (avocado cake anyone?) so we had to go elsewhere but altogether a nice experience. Would go there again, especially on a nice day. Sausage butty was particularly good.

A small delight, with great, individual style and lovely food and drinks. Very dog friendly and staff were helpful. Walking routes on hand. We took the grandkids and they loved it as well.

I am quite particular about where I eat but this was possibly one of the best English breakfasts I have ever had. Food was piping hot, as was the lovely coffee. We will definitely be back.

Stopped here twice whilst passing on a narrowboat. The location didn't look promising and the building is a bit shed like, but tidy. Once inside, it's a gem - good food and drink, great range to suit adults and kids. Friendly and helpful staff and in a thoughtful and attractive decor.

Great cafe, definitely cyclist friendly as they have installed bike racks. Coffee of a very high quality and the chocolate brownie I had was gorgeous. It was a cold day when we visited, but inside was warm, didn't want to leave. Staff helpful and friendly, will most certainly be returning

Pleasant location. Decent car park and a couple of bicycle racks. Has options for both indoor and outdoor eating. The staff were very friendly, the food was nicely presented and the prices were about average. I've been there about 10 times and always been happy with it.

Amazing little café tucked away in a beautiful area. Friendly,attentive staff serving a good selection of home made foods also catering for gluten free requirements. Dog friendly all round brilliant place. Despite living 1/2 hr drive away I will be making it our as regular as possible place to go.😁

Excellent cafe in a lovely area. Laura and her team make the best cakes for miles! I will happily come back here time and again for coffee, cake, lunch -or all 3! Afternoon tea is a must too.

Lovely and relaxing canal walk nearby, delicious food and coffee great pleasant staff.

Coffee was fantastic. The GF brownie was not to my taste. I think it may have had banana in it, which for me was the dominant flavour. Lovely place though, and we'll worth a visit, either before of after a walk along the canal. I will be returning 🤗

Probably one of those most quirkiest coffee shops I’ve been too. Food and coffee was spot on and the service was great. If you like interiors and funky furniture, this is your place.

Called into this lovely little coffee shop on Sunday. Was really amazed with it, lovely coffee and carrot cake (all home made I was assured!!) staff were extremely nice and helpful- will definitely be calling back there!! 👍👍
