I just want to say what a wonderful visit we had! we took my elderly nan along with our two young kids here today and the staff were amazing! lots of support with the wheelchair and the staff continued to check we knew the best routes to go! shuttle bus was very regular and the accessibility information was extremely well thought out! every disability was thoroughly thought of and extremely detailed with in the information section on the website (along with pictures of every area which is perfect for any ASN visitor) thankyou and well done to all staff involved.

A festive wonderland! Recently visited for their Christmas event which included a visit inside the manor with a theme of sleeping beauty and the Christmas market with light trail outdoors. Wonderfully accessible place too, wheelchair friendly and disabled toilets available throughout. The manor is stunningly lit at night for the festive season too, I fully recommend this as a family friendly (and pet friendly) experience!

Lovely setting, but poor food. The burger buns were past their best, very dry. The chips were huge chunky ones (that way you don't have to serve many). Our food was luke warm as was the coffee. All in all not a good experience for the cost.

Very disappointing food. Some "clever" catering guru has designed a menu of confusion. Only burgers are available in the sit down table service area but the beef one had the texture of being cooked the previous day (and was lukewarm at best), the chicken one just tasted of chilli/paprika and the vegan one just tasted of cumin. As we passed the 'takeaway' on the way out we saw a tray of pasties and wondered if we should have gone there but the menu told us they were cauliflower bhaji pasties. We do have adventurous tastes in general but this just doesn't work. With the food offers as they are, we cannot recommend this place despite the very pleasant ambience and the helpful staff (so sorry for them to have to serve this!) Can't even say it was value for money I'm afraid

Lovely location and good service but the flat white and cappuccino we had were awful. Both lacked coffee and had far too much milk in them. Shame as the setting was perfect.

Not the kind of food you would expect from a cafe in a stately home.Clever food with some very interesting ingredients and flavour combinations great quality food.One guy controlling order taking, and boy did he do a good job keeping the gues down.Not only is Waddesden a beautiful opulent house,the cafe did it justice as well.So we'll done guys a lovely day at the doodle and s lovely meal to bootParking: A lot of parking nicely laid out.

Very disappointed with the Stables Cafe lunchtime today. Only burgers available at the hatch but we were told we could get food from the takeaway and sit in the cafe to eat.In the takeaway the shelves were empty, no sandwiches in the chiller and empty shelves where the hot pasties and sausage rolls should be. We enquired if there were any more and 6 sandwich packs were taken from the fridge and put on the shelves. We were told that more pasties were being cooked but the chef had no idea when they would be cooked.Have never experienced this in a National Trust property before.

Very disorganised. Had 3 young lads who could not cope with the demand. Ended up getting girders mixed up. Waited 14mins for them to make one coffee and 4 got chocolates. Cooler was not hot . Not great when you have paid close to £20 for 6 drinks.Never again

Have eaten in the stables restaurant previously & now they are only offering fish & chips, the takeaway service should have been open for 1pm, but they had limited food on offer & were late in opening. What h.as happened?
