During peak times, the cafe can get quite busy, which might lead to longer wait times for food and service
Limited parking availability can be a hassle, particularly during weekends when visitors flock to the lakes.
A few diners have expressed a desire for more vegetarian and vegan options on the menu, although the existing dishes are quite satisfying.

Came across this cafe by chance, had a full Sunday roast! I’m gluten free and nothing was too much trouble - had the full works including Yorkshire’s. Very friendly staff, great food and reasonably priced! Just be aware to take cash as the card machine can be temperamental for them.

Wow!! Booked last minute afternoon tea to celebrate my Mum's 80th. Loads of delicious sandwiches , cake and scones , more than enough for the 8 of us.Also tea topped up as much as required. We ate in the Summer house overlooking the lake which was lovely and the staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Had looked at other places in town which were double the price but cannot see they could have offered anything better than the quality and service we got at Parklands.

Lovely food and fab service. Even though the weather was dull and slightly damp, I can't give anything less than 5 stars. This was the 3rd visit by our family and friends. We were welcomed by staff and even other customers. Such a lovely lunch experience even outside with 2 active dogs. It's in a great setting too, near the fishing lake behind a quiet caravan site. Thanks so much.
