I always love visiting Wold Farm, and the experience wouldn't be complete without the Islands View Café. Tosh and Rochelle are some of the loveliest people me and my dad have ever met - I always feel welcomed when I come here. The food is good and seems to be of good value. I have bought almost all of my fishing kit from here - it's very easy to just peruse and look for something new. Fantastic place!

We discovered this cafe by happy accident, despite living locally. It's tucked away, but the directions are accurate. Set beside beautiful fishing lakes. We ordered the full English and the veggie version. Both massive, well cooked, and delicious. Friendly staff made us feel welcomed. Very popular with anglers. We'll be back!

Visited today. Had the Wold farm breakfast. Lovely food, all freshly cooked to order. Nothing was to much trouble as I don't like mushrooms and tomatoes. Tosh left them off and gave me a substitution. Definitely will be back again. Lovely peaceful setting looking out onto the beautiful Islands lake of Wold Farm Fisheries and Country Pursuits. If you want a great day's fishing or air rifle shooting. And some wonderful food. This is the place to visit. OR JUST FOR THE FOOD 5*****

Lovely food and friendly welcoming staff. Breakfast was amazing and sitting outside looking at the lake highly recommend for a quiet peaceful breakfast. Prices are good and set us up for the day. Will be definitely going back.

Fantastic service and delicious food! We have always been looked after by Tosh & Roch, happy to offer help and advise and makes my son smile every time he comes in the cafe! Brilliant availability for tackle and equipment, they even run really fun raffles and competitions. My fishing experience wouldn't be complete without them!

Me and Dad had a fabulous Wold Farm Breakfast today and the wife had Sausage Dirty fries. The quality of the food was excellent. It was cooked perfectly and was great value. The cafe is comfortable and bright with a good range of bait and end tackle. Get yourself down to Wold Farm Fishery even if you just fancy a breakfast.
