The Lock Inn Cafe - Reservar mesa

This place used to be a gold mine when Dick ran it. We keep giving it 2nd and 3rd chances spaces about a year apart but each time is a major let down.

The Inn was only about a third full...why the wait!!!!?...

Breakfast was excellent best we have had in a long while,lovely tasty bacon,nice sausages hot crispy hash Brown's and fried bread to die for! also hot delicious coffee! The waiting staff on our visit were very good especially a young guy called Louie, his customer service skills were magnificent- watch out management someone will snap him up for their company if you don't look after him!I Overall we would definitely return,cannot understand the bad reviews? perhaps a local rival business with a large family Reserve uma mesa agora
