Shame about the bad reviews. Me and my partner really enjoyed it and it's the best cafe we have been to for any zoo's we have visited.My partner ordered a Bacon Roll - it was cooked fresh and was £3 which we thought was a good price.I had Scone which had butter and TipTree Jam, I was given it on a plate in a bag which was great as I could then choose when to have to during the day without it making a mess.There were Plain scones and fruit scones which was great as I prefer plain. This was just under £3 and the scone was a good size. Ordered a drink as well.We had around a 5 - 8 minute wait which we didn't mind at all especially as they were so busy.Lots of choices and would go back!

Disappointing for price. Charged us for expensive soup and roll. Provided soup but not roll, as run out. Waitress claimed she had explained, but definitely had not.

We arrived at 1pm and by about 3 pm we were hungry so we looked around the zoo to find that only this cafe was open the only one open.We went in and the queue was huge the prices were extremely high, no signs to say what was in kids meal or soup. More than half the food was not availableThe toasties were not fully cooked and the scones were not warmed and tasted terrible. Avoid! £22 for 2 toasties, 2 bags of crisps, a scone and a coffee!

Penguin cafe was simple cv19 rules in and out, no seating area usableWhich is understandableWould of liked to see more food signs or easily visible what was a availableAfter i was served then saw pasties, and toastie and bacon rolls etcOnly over head what the pasties were from other membersSo maybe help sales more add a couple more signsWe have a couple hot drinks and 2 cakesI did like my bakewell tart

Food is expensive as expected its a captive audience, staff are nice enough however the whole place is dirty, all the tables left a complete mess, had to find the blue roll and spray down our table before sitting down which after paying a service charge to sit in feels a bit harsh. Alongside this the toilets echo the general theme of the place too!

Only had Tuna Sandwiches , they were over priced and actually vile and tasteless, loved rest of the zoo but I wouldn't go back to Penguin Cafe

One meal deal costs £8 but this is only a saving of 40p over the individual cost of a can of pop, sandwich and packet of crisps.We had 3 meal deals and a chocolate brownie, totalling £26.60!!Wow, very pricey and they even put a contactless (£3) donation terminal right next to the til.

Enjoyed our coffee however the scones were obviously not fresh, possibly the previous day's which is disappointing!

Cofee was decent but cookies were 2.30 and stale. Bacon rolls close to 4 quid and they couldn't tell me if it was smoked bacon or not. Fried egg roll was 3.50 so basically a total rip off of a place aside from coffee.
