Bosun's Locker

Having a long busy day ahead I decided to stoke up with a cooked breakfast, the B&B I stayed at in Barrow having provided a toast & Variety pack type breakfast. I had heard rumours of great cooking at Bosun's Locker and I wasn't disappointed. Will go again if I am in the area

Yummy afternoon tea at £8 per person, freshly cooked and prepared food ( vegetarian option available) and friendly staff, if You can't eat everything, the staff box it up for You to take away with You.

Quite simply we couldn't recommend Bosun's Locker high enough!

We have already visited twice whilst staying in the Lakes, once for a quick breakfast snack (bacon rolls) and coffee, and then for the second time today for lunch.

Today we sampled a variety of dishes from the menu as there were four of us eating and every main course followed by every dessert was perfect, very fairly priced and homemade.

I would suggest that booking is virtually essential as from the time they open they are rightly very busy and be sure to bring a large appetite.

Amazing! Great hearty food, tasty and a ridiculously good price. The staff were so welcoming and wonderful with our rather eccentric 5 year old ( he ordered lamb shank 🤣) the cakes are delicious so save some room for pudding.

Excellent home cooked food at extremely reasonable prices, huge portions. Home made cake to die for. Place is basic but very clean. Really is a little gem of a place, love going here. Quality of food is way beyond price charged. Don't expect luxurious surroundings but does what it does brilliantly. Best to book in advance, gets pretty busy at peak times.

Love this place and so do alot of other people that you have to book a table. Food is delicious, homemade, tasty and excellent value for money. We usually have wine with our meal.

Looking for a dog friendly cafe in the Furness area and we stuck gold we were just going for a snack but when we saw the freshly home cooked meals coming out we quickly chose to have a meal each and we were not disappointed I had lamb and Anne had BBQ pork and they were both fantastic we also got a pot of tea which was spot on the place is very busy and I can see why you have to book we were lucky as the lunch time Rush had finished but it was still busy the staff were extremely helpful even though it was busy with more people arriving after us. our 1st visit to Roa island but certainly not our last

Highly recommend this place. Visited on Friday, didn't book a table but managed to get one as it was about 2pm. The food coming out of the kitchen looked good, I decided on the liver with creamy mash, so tasty and a lovely selection of vegetables, a great choice. My sister had the Scampi with chips and salad which she enjoyed. Then it was a piece of coconut cake and an ice cream both delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful.
I have had many an ice cream from here over the years but this was my first meal and I will hopefully be back on my next visit to Barrow.
