The evening starts promptly at 7.30pm with the slide show followed by a light supper such as lasagne, cottage pie etc. always with a Veggie option. You may bring your own alcoholic beverage but tea and coffee will be served with the meal and our usual cakes are available to buy!

However they are only suggestions and can be tailored to fit in with your ideas, a particular favourite dish or just to meet your budget or dietary requirements.
We will set up the buffet on a suitable table or surface covered if necessary, with a paper banqueting cloth.
The price includes tasteful disposable crockery, robust plastic cutlery, serviettes, setting up, washing up of dishes supplied by Wilf’s. and removal of the buffet at a mutually convenient time.
Please feel free to discuss your buffet requirements with us with no obligation.

We are delighted that Wilf's Cafe have chosen to be on Discover The Lakes as we are always happy to eat there and have a pint in the Hawkshead Brewery afterwards!
There is much competition to get the lovely table on the patio at the back overlooking the mill race. The Big Meaty Breakfast is a winner and the staff are really great people.

Staveley Mill Yard is a good place to spend some time with all sorts of businesses to see.If you are staying close by its a "must visit", if you are further away it is still a "must visit".If you go to Wilf's tell them you found them on Discover The Lakes, I doubt you will get a discount but you may well get a smile!
