The Ramblers is a great coffee shop in Shipley Park. Fabulous cakes and nice hot and cold drinks. Ample seating inside and outside, it can be busy sometimes. Great food served every day. Nice and friendly staff.

Such a wonderful place, a pity someone at the council seems to won't to close it down.

One of my favourite meeting places with friends, especially when doing a walk.

Fabulous cafe situated next to the Visitor Centre in Shipley Park. A wide range of home made meals are available at reasonable prices. There are also sandwiches, panninis, toasties and a beautiful array of delicious home made cakes. Well worth a visit if you are in the

A good place to stop for food and drinks when out for a walk. Always a good selection of home baked cakes, sausage rolls etc. Closes quite early, especially in winter months, so always good to check opening times.

Visited for the first time, didn't read reviews first as we like to find out for ourselves what places are like. Wish we had! There are a few talking about this cafe closing early and at 2.30 on a bank holiday Sunday afternoon that's what we experienced. My husband went ahead of me while I paid for parking and when I followed and tried the door it was locked so he had to ask the young girl who had locked it to let me in. Her face said it all and she then blocked all but two tables off to start cleaning, even though there were 4 separate customers at the counter. Anyway, drinks and cakes were nice but it was so obvious that they wanted to close and were emptying all the cake cabinets and cleaning down that we felt uncomfortable being there. When my husband asked to speak to the owner to point out that our visit was disappointing she said that they were open till 5 ?? and when she quesioned the girl about locking the door she denied it - even though we overheard the same girl asking the owner if they were still finishing at 3!So...won't be returning or recommending and hopefully the owner gets the message that when we try to support small businesses the service needs to reflect that they are thankful to anyone who walks in the door. We'd actually bypassed a packed garden centre cafe up the road to visit this one, our mistake but maybe that reflects other customer's experiences?Parking: Car park charges every day, all day.

Many years since I've been to Shipley Park itself, never mind the café and found both very welcoming. Will definitely be going back ?

Completely hit or miss if it's ever open! Why have opening times if you're just going to close early when you feel like it ?

Wonderful homemade scones and other goodies. You can have a snack or a meal, whatever you decide will be delicious. The staff or pleasant and helpful. The cafe is clean and bright. For young children there is a fairy hunt, see how many fairies you can find in the cafe. A lovely place to sit and relax after you outdoor activities in the park

Food usually nice but VERY slow and disorganised. Queued best part of 30 mins for a pre order, the order was wrong, told 30 mins more just to replace a toastie. (Thats a complex piece of toast...) Wasnt prio'd in any sense and still charged for the wrong item despite it going in the bin if I didnt take it. Pretty shoddy customer service. Not impressed.
