  “As always, an amazing Christmas cream tea. 3 adults and 2 infants under 3 months. We felt at home and were given a table which allowed the babies to breast feed and Mum's to eat comfortably. The staff were amazing- friendly, funny and helpful. The food was delicious! A great choice including sandwiches, cakes (lots of choice on flavour), crisps, coleslaw, scones and salad. There was also an endless supply of hot drinks (teas and lattes), which were topped up constantly throughout our stay. Any food we didn't eat we took home. We also had christmas crackers and chocolates dotted on the table. I really couldn't recommend Parkside Cafe enough! Go to Parkside cafe if you're looking for a fun experience, delicious food and great service.”

  “We live an hour away from Parkside Cafe & we book the Christmas Afternoon Tea every year as our “little treat” before Christmas. This is our 4th year of doing this & Dan & his little team have never disappointed us. Everything is freshly home made (including the coleslaw which is soooo good!), absolutely delicious & there’s so much variety cake wise to choose from. You won’t leave here hungry!! We honestly can not recommend The Parkside Cafe enough which is why we make that 2 hour round trip year after year. Thank you so much for your hospitality & absolutely fantastic food. See you next year!”

  “Lovely, great value, local café with delicious food and run by friendly, helpful staff. It kind of feels like having lunch at a friend's house. The portions are very generous. It's very small, so although we were lucky and got a table immediately, I can imagine it would be easy to go and find no tables free.”

  “Took my dad for afternoon tea. So nice and so much food ,we had to bring some home. Delicious sandwiches and freshly baked cakes and scones. All served on pretty, dainty china as afternoon tea should be! Really friendly too. We'll be back again, maybe breakfast next time.”

  “The Headline - Excellent Value For Money, Great Quality Ingredients and a Lovely Atmosphere. Read on for Full Review We've lived in Weston for many many years and have tried pretty much every cafe in Weston, but this was our 1st time trying 'Parkside Cafe' in Locking. It's owned and ran by Dan who cooks all the food and his Wife, who works as front of house. 1st impressions were very good, from the outside it looks very cute, inside was very clean and tidy, good quality table and chairs, it was quite small inside, but that gave it a nice homely feel. We were lucky getting a table, I would recommend booking if you want to go yourself, to avoid disappointment. As we walked in, the lady (apologies I didn't get her name, and I can't find it on their website and/or the Facebook page) was very attentive, offering us a high chair for little one. She took our drinks order, while we checked out the menu. There was a good choice of food on the menu, including some great breakfast options without being overwhelming, including vegetarian. From what I can gather they specialise in their 'Afternoon Tea'. We placed our order, I chose the 'Large Breakfast' (photo below). While we waited for our food, lots of people were coming in and out, either to eat in or to grab a coffee on the go. It's clear to see they have built up a great relationship with the local community. Which is key to running a family owned cafe out of town. We had a short wait for the food, 1st impressions of the food was again, very good. You can tell they use high quality ingredients and everything, including my poached egg was cooked perfectly, no grease in sight. I'm sure it was locally sourced. One of the signs of a great fry up is a good quality sausage, we've had so many fry ups, where a cheap sausage has let it down. These sausages were amazing, along with the bacon. Even the bread was fresh and not just your normal cheap supermarket loaf. You can have a great breakfast, but if the place decides to use 'cheap' immatation sauces, it can be ruined. No complaints in this area again, I can't confirm if it was the well known brand of sauce, but both the red and brown was very tasty. All through our time here, the service was impeccible. We'll definitely be coming back. We're looking forward to trying the afternoon tea next. Another bonus about the cafe is it's located just opposite a park, so if you have young children they can burn off all their sweet treats. There is also outside seating avaliable to. Thank you to Dan and his Wife for one of the best breakfast we've had and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Mark, Kate, Freya & Olivia x”

  “Seen happy reviews and decided to try this place. 20 minutes waiting time for a regular breakfast is not good. We were served coffee straight away, but by the time we got the breakfast, of course, the coffee was stone cold. Customers, who came after us, got their food sooner. To make things worse, sausages were half cooked. Should have gone elsewhere.”
