Most Disliked
Sometimes, the café can be busy, especially on weekends, leading to longer wait times. A few visitors have noted that, while the food is generally excellent, the portion sizes can be less than expected for certain light bites. Additionally, while the cozy atmosphere is inviting, some may find it a bit cramped during peak hours. A minor complaint may be regarding the limited selection of desserts for those who relish choices. Despite these small drawbacks, the overall charm of Dawn's outweighs any inconveniences.

I popped into Dawn’s for a quiet afternoon tea and ended up discovering my new favorite dessert – the Raspberry Pistachio Roulade. It’s light as a cloud, with just the right balance of sweet and tart. The pistachio cream is silky and nutty, and the raspberries taste like they were picked that morning. It’s honestly the prettiest slice I’ve had in ages – and it tastes even better than it looks. Perfect with a pot of Earl Grey. Can’t wait to come back for more! 💕🍰

Booked into Dawn's yesterday for a breakfast with 3 friends prior to a round of golf at nearby Knott End GC. Very clean cafe, great friendly service and lovely food. Highly recommended.

Best cafe I've been in for a while. As we walked through the door we were welcomed by a nice little lady behind the counter. I said can we have two of your home made Pies, chips & gravy. It was absolutely spot on. As a chef myself I couldn't have beat the meal for quality price & service. When Arriving at Knotts End hungry head straight to Dawns tea room & bakery. You won't be disappointed. It's very rare you get homemade chips these days and good roast beef gravy but this place has nailed it. We sat right next to the cake counter so bought four nice cakes to takeaway. The whole visit cost £15 now that's a price you won't beat.

I went a few weeks ago it was my first visit. I can't praise it highly enough. The reasonably priced food was delicious, I had a full English. Both Dawn and the waitresss were very friendly and welcoming. I definitely will be going again, highly recommended 😃

Came in today with my 1 year old daughter and had a really good time, there was only one women servicing and making drinks and taking food out but my god she smashed it… She went out her way to get my daughter a high chair and was very welcoming. I ordered a big breakfast and a children’s beans on toast with an egg. Which came out on a child’s plate suitable for a 1 year old. Would recommend for anybody with smaller children
