The Best Cafes in Lostock, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom (2025)

Loved this little coffee shop, could not believe how many vegan options there were (of course plenty of regular stuff too) but it's refreshing to have choice for once, especially in Bolton! I had the vegan cheeze and tomato toastie and added a cup of celery soup, really delicious and very filling all washed down with an oat milk latte sprinkled with vegan choccy! The atmosphere was great too and the staff all very friendly and helping to open the door for my elderly Aunt Babs. I also got a slice of vegan carrot cake to go which was also yummy, very impressed and have actually reserved a table to come back with my mum and sister on Friday! Thank you and I've added you to Happy Cow for other vegans who would like to have options for lunch in our area 😊 Edit: went back and had the portobello mushroom salad and a cup of soup and my sister had the halloumi open sandwich which looked great and mum had the beef sandwich, all tasted fab! Really great coffee too :) thanks!

This is not merely a coffee ‘shop’; it is a treasure trove of archived memories, where celebrating the pride and glory of ex-Bolton School students uplifts every visitor, young and old. It fosters a profound sense of community, instilling great pride in all who enter. Community spirit at its finest! 🏆 not to be missed x

Came all the way from Texas and somebody recommended me to visit this coffee shop. It did not disappoint! Ambience is lovely, plenty of people in there creating a nice vibe (obviously popular). Coffees were delicious and lots to choose from on the menu! Highly recommend this place!

Came in was met by a lovely worker explained the menu to me, halal options were great. Did opt for the toasted and panini was lovely. Also ordered the pancakes but wanted them hot so worker told me to give her heads up was perfect will be back again if I am in bolton

5* Service! Had an amazing experience at this cafe! The service was outstanding, the coffee, hot chocolate and food were all delicious, and the prices were very reasonable. A warm and welcoming spot, perfect for spending time with friends or family. Highly recommend!

Busy Saturday morning but we was seated quickly. Juices were fresh and food was delicious. Only disappointed was the coffee it tasted like they was form vending machine which was quite surprising.

Beautiful atmosphere. Amazing food. We had a Ceaser Salad and the Egg Benedict with Smoked Salmon on Sourdough. People are friendly. Highly recommend this place. Chicken is halal.

Superior experience. We came for a soft brunch around 11am since we had some small bagels earlier in the morning. First we were waiting around 10 mins while being seated. Order was instant. We followed advice from waitress and got pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. Fantastic combination. Flat white and English breakfast tea is a must have option. Restaurant has temperament atmosphere; staff is friendly; served food looks excellent every way I was looking at; and important thing premises are clean. For me nice place for tasty morning breakfast or late morning brunch.

First time walk - a few other paths to take next time. Some lovely views and lots of dog walkers about. Nice cafe at the end of it and toilet facilities in the carpark.

Nice place for a walk, pathways muddy in places but not too bad. Parking isn't great, but managed to get a space in the end. But what is it with dog walkers letting them do their business all over the pathways, just spoils it for everyone else and even themselves when they end up coming back for a walk, it doesn't magically disappear!

Fantastic place, I live local and like to get out and take some sunrise shots. Had a great walk around the Jumbles yesterday. Little gem of a place. The car park is great, lots of space and easy to access the trail.

Had a breakfast here this morning. One of the nicest I’ve had for awhile. Nice quality food, well cooked, friendly staff. Highly recommend 👍

Small breakfast easily enough. Well cooked, Well presented and service with a smile

First time we've visited these Premises. My daughter had cheese on toast & crumpets. I had egg mayo sandwich. Didn't want a bap, put side salad with sandwiches, just the right portion. It was great because we could see our food being freshly made. Premises clean, atmosphere great child friendly, and staff polite, courteous and some customers appeared as though they were regulars. Will definitely be going again and have no problems recommending others give it a try.

Amazing service and delicious comfort food. Couldn't recommend this place more😍 you've gotta try their barm cakes!

Always brilliant food and friendly service it’s now my favourite cafe love the specials always something new to try

Just been up to The Lemon Tree and had breakfast. Absolutely top service, the food was amazing, no waiting around for my food. Nice and hot. Highly recommend. Thanks Risa & Molly xxxx

Took my parents for a breakfast dad my dad’s a fussy guy . He was buzzing with the breakfast that was served. Mum had a omelette with chips and salad I had a big breakfast with chip .. didn’t even cost me that much . About 26 odd quid with coffees and orange juice.. . Can’t argue with that.. now doing deliveries too . If your parents need a good munch I’d be ordering them good food. Places like this puts peoples minds at rest if you can order knowing they are eating well if at work .. free delivery within 3 miles .. thank you guys so much for putting my mind at ease knowing that my oldes are looked after .. 👌🏻👊🏻

Grabbed a ham salad sandwhich today. It was fresher than fresh. But the customer service from the funny guy made it even better. I've passed the shop a few times and never stopped but I think I'll be back.

Excellent as always. Great service, delicious coffee's and food. Very clean establishment. The staff are friendly and really keep on top of things wiping tables down and making sure the tables are always ready for the next customer. All cakes are covered which is very hygienic. What's not to like, the owner knows how to run a successful cafe 👌👌👍

What a fabulous afternoon in a beautifully tranquil and relaxing atmosphere. Greeted with a lovely glass of pink lemonade. Had a lovely afternoon tea with delicious sandwiches, and mini quiche. a huge scone with jam & clotted cream. And fabulous selection of slattery’s cakes. Staff were amazing - so friendly and attentive and very welcoming. Looking forward to returning soon

This cafe is a little gem. Always a very friendly atmosphere. The staff are lovely... The food is really nice. Whatever you decide to buy, it will always be fresh and very tasty. Portion sizes are always just spot on. I usually visit on my own, and I am always made welcome. The perfect place to visit, take a book to read and enjoy a lovely lunch.

A hidden gem. So pleased for the owners as they have the right ideas and mindset to run a well established cafe to serve the community. Take my son for a treat here he has a waffle with all the trimmings. The place is always clean and the staff are polite and very helpful

A treasure of a find ✨️ 💖. 1st time visit to La Vita, certainly won't be the last. Beautifully clean, warm and inviting. Lovely staff serving a rich Italian coffee. A good menu too to choose from for our next visit...breakfast 😋 Highly recommended Latest update, we returned for breakfast and it was awesome 👌 We opted for the "Maxi Breakfast" minus the mushrooms and we weren't disappointed, very delicious and expertly cooked items 😋 And the latest review, returned with our grandchildren to sample the waffles...wow!! They speak for themselves, tasty and made with Kinder Bueno and love. The staff in La Vita are amazing, nothing is too much trouble ❤️

Fantastic little cafe,menu good variety and reasonably priced,very organised and friendly staff, nothing to much trouble,quality of food excellent,good chef,we took cakes home with us and they were home made and a different level,cafe nice decor and clean,we will return.

A really busy little place with a warm atmosphere. Cheery, bright yellow chairs. Does not smell of fried food. Gorgeous cakes in the cabinet. Actually got what I ordered. Smily staff. Tables cleared in a timely manner. Food nicely cooked and tasty with a good option of variety. Smoothie served with a glass straw, eco conscious

Just visited for the first time and was very impressed. Food was fabulous, great service and lovely place to eat. Highly recommend.
