π Priory Country Park, Barkers Lane, Bedford, MK41 9SH
Tier Achieved:
Mediocre energy. You'd probably do better cooking at home.
The epitome of "does the job." Safe enough, food's fine. But let's be honest β your kitchen's probably cleaner AND tastier.
Cloverdale Retreat (Cafe) is the kind of place where hygiene shines like a freshly polished trophy, but the food and service could use a solid pep talk. Sammy O'dell gave it high marks for cleanliness and friendly staff while enjoying a coffee near the lake. But letβs not ignore the service hiccups; Jakk Johnson and UK Photo Journey have tales of chaos in the kitchen.
With a decent menu and a picturesque view, it's a relaxing spot, but don't expect speedy service anytime soon. If youβre looking to kill time and enjoy a caffeinated beverage, itβs a decent pitstop. Just donβt come starving unless you fancy a long wait and a side of disappointment.
"The cafe was very clean; with plenty of seating inside and out."
"Lovely atmosphere everything nice and clean."
"Service was extremely attentive and server came over several times to see if we needed anything else."
