Quick info
About Draycote Water - Waterside Restaurant
Draycote Water Waterside Restaurant sits at the Draycote Water Visitor Centre, with a terrace overlooking the reservoir and room for cycle parking on the decking at the rear. The kitchen runs as both a restaurant and a cafe, covering a wide menu of food and drinks alongside cream scones and cakes at the counter. Sunday lunch is offered with fresh vegetables, and an allergen menu is available for those who need it. Dogs are welcome on site. The setting makes it a natural stop after a walk or cycle around the reservoir, with both indoor and outdoor seating to choose from.

Customer Review Summary
Cream scones are the draw, with one reviewer pairing a burger and a scone on the terrace overlooking the reservoir. Others praise the cakes, a Sunday lunch with plenty of fresh veg, the allergen menu and friendly service. One reviewer finds it hard to reach when walking is difficult. Another reports the ladies' restroom water was too hot to wash hands.

“Great place for walking. Pretty reservoir. Would recommend.”
- Montserrat Casanovas
“The water in the ladies’ restroom is extremely hot—so hot that it’s impossible to wash your hands without getting burned. As a result, I have to leave with dirty hands because I can’t use the sink. Please fix this issue as soon as possible. Thank you.”
- Jorge Costa
“Just a nice place to relax and enjoy with good food i couldn't ask for better with allergen menu available”
- Hugh Mulligan
“Excellent bike friendly cafe. Usually lots of bicycle parking places but during the refurbishments they are very limited, best to cycle to the rear of the cafe and park up on the patio / decking area. Very good cream scones and cakes and a wide menu choice for other food and drinks. Very friendly service and good value.”
- Barry Chamberlain
“Difficult to get to if walking is a problem!”
