The Railway Cafe - Bassetlaw

Went for steak night today and they have no steaks. Not good at all. Service was slow also. Waited 45 mins for food.

Called in as I had 25 minutes before my next train. A very small cafe, serving a limited selection of food and drinks. I had a Mocha, served in a cardboard cup. Not the best vessel to drink a Mocha from. But the drink was hot and tasty. Apart from the pub on the other platform and 2 waiting rooms, that's all there is. The Cafe does have a wc for customers.

We have been regulars at the Railway Cafe on Worksop Station for a number of years. The latest owners, the lovely Doreen and Paul have transformed the place into a culinary delight for home made pastries, sausage rolls, cakes, scones etc, plus the usual cooked breakfasts, omelettes, and hot and cold sandwiches. They also do great coffees, flavoured teas and cold drinks. Open from 6.30 weekdays and 07.00 on Saturdays this place is always worth a visit even if you aren't travelling. Its even got free spaces in the station carpark for cafe customers. Give them a try, but be quick as the fabulous pork and red onion sausage rolls and the cheese ones sell out quick!! A great place with two great hosts!

I HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE RAILWAY CAFE SINCE FEBRUARY 2020 BEFORE COVID. IT SEEMS TO HAVE CHANGED HANDS. THANK GOODNESS! I ORDERED EGGS Benedict AND A CUP OF TEA. IT WAS RATHER NICE, BUT THAT MIGHT BE, BECAUSE I WAS HUNGRY. I PAID £7.93 ALTOGETHER, AND WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THE BENEDICT HAD NO HAM OR BACON BASE,WHICH IS HOW A TRADITIONAL EGGS BENEDICT SHOULD BE MADE. THE TEAPOT WAS ONLY HALF FULL TOO. WHICH MADE THE TEA RATHER STRONG. THERE WAS NO OFFER OF What TYPE OF MILK I WOULD OF LIKED IN THE TEA. IT WAS ASSUMED SEMI SKIMMED WAS THE NORM. HOWEVER THE FOOD WAS COOKED PROPERLY, BUT MISSING AN INGREDIENT. PERHAPS THE STAFF SHOULD WEAR A POLO Top With THE LOGO ON, SO CUSTOMERS CAN DIFFERENTIATE STAFF FROM OTHER CUSTOMERS.

I googled the nearest Cafes to where we stayed for a couple of nights in Worksop. This came up and I was pleasantly surprised with the level of service from all members of staff; taking the order, chef bringing it out and another worker generally helping all round. They were polite friendly and genuine which goes a long way. Only regret was I didn’t have any change and neither did they for me to leave a tip. I’m sure we will visit nearby again and most certainly get breakfast. Thanks all, it’s nice to get good service and we tend to only moan when we don’t
