Hartside Cafe

Story

Hart Side is a subsidiary top on one of the east ridges of Stybarrow Dodd, which is a mountain in the English Lake District, west of Ullswater on the main Helvellyn ridge in the Eastern Fells. With a height of 2,480 feet Hart Side rises above the col separating it from Green Side by 75 feet .Some guide-book writers have treated Hart Side as a distinct fell, and have devoted a separate chapter to it. The same writers have treated the lower Watermillock Common as part of the fell. Other writers have simply focussed on routes to and between the many individual tops here and throughout Lakeland.Hart Side and Green Side are the two ends of a ridge which is composed of andesite rock, a sequence of lava flows from ancient volcanoes. A lead vein in the Green Side end of the ridge was exploited by the most successful lead mine in the Lake District until it closed in 1962.TopographyThe east ridge of Stybarrow Dodd falls about 262 feet to a broad col from which the ground rises again. From this point the combined Hart Side and Green Side ridge has a smooth, rounded, grassy top and winds for some 1½ miles to the north east. After rising 98 feet to White Stones, the summit of Green Side, it loses 203 feet of height before rising again from a broad, gentle col, but regains only 75 feet to the summit of Hart Side .At this point the ridge turns abruptly to the south of east and after losing roughly 66 feet again it rises to a broad, rounded, unnamed grassy swelling with a height of about 2,428 feet . A north-east shoulder of this swelling ends with steeper gradients on all sides and a scattering of broken crags ahead. This shoulder was named Birkett Fell in 1963, but it has just 6½ feet prominence above the ridge it terminates.

Reviews
The cafe doesnt look much on the outside but the views across to the lake district are fantastic. The staff are friendly and the food is really tasty and good value. A real unexpected gem.
We like an early set off up here,For a good run on the bikes and stop for a awesome full english breakfast. The roads from penrith roundabout are awesome for bikers. Friendly staff and clean. Reasonable prices and a good menu!
The views are stunning and the roads from a biker's perspective are just superb.
Amazing views. Only let down was that no dogs are allowed even though it's in walkers haven l. Lovely heart small breakfast
The building in the pics burned down a while ago but there's now what amounts to a large burger van on site doing food and drinks. Excellent biking road to get there, particularly from the west. Car/bike park is very windy so it'll probably be chilly unless the sun is out
Beautiful views, lovely lemon drizzle cake
Went here doing the coast to coast challenge just what you need a cafe after a hard climb up the hill to it, the only problem was it was closed!!
Convenient stop off after a long ride. Warm inside and biker friendly. Fabulous views.
Great views and affordable. However, be aware that they tend to shut around 5, and I mean shut: we went to get teas at 4:30 and found they were only doing takeaways at that point. This is just a tip for visitors - I totally understand this - because they're in the middle of nowhere they've probably got a way to drive home!
Fast service, cheap, friendly staff, nice views.
