    You have the option to sit inside or outside over looking the lake and golf course. We had a group of 10 there wasn’t any table service so had to order food and drinks at the bar and it was very easy and quick and when the food arrived wow it was fantastic everyone was very pleased.

    I had the Thai vegetable curry, which was very tasty. The restaurant wasn't very busy so although we'd made a booking we were pretty much free to sit where we wanted. No orders were taken in the bistro so you had to go to the bar to place your food order and get drinks. Good value, tasty meal in a "normal" bistro-type setting,

    We wanted good food, a nice view and a quiet space to enjoy it in and we got it all at the Cypress Lakes Bistro and Bar. We ate early, the staff were attentive and it was a really pleasant experience. We even saw a rainbow!

    We were a big party of 16 and ate at the Bistro both nights we were at Cypress Lakes. Both nights all the orders were correct, arrived at the same time and as quickly as you could hope with that many meals to prepare. Food was good quality ‘pub’ fare. Good wine list.

    Great food and service. Beautiful outdoors in good weather, or drinks by the fire in colder months.

    The food was good, the service was great, but overall, it's a bit tired, the chairs really need to be revamped, they sag in the middle, which is uncomfortable. The whole place needs a paint job, it's a shame, as the setting is gorgeous, it's just tired.

    Great service! Food was amazing! Great variety buffet breakfast. Dinner was great!! The only thing that I would complain about is the chairs were uncomfortable and dirty.

    Had a wonderful birthday dinner with my husband on our stay. The food was delicious and the quality was worth the money, not that it was over priced at all. The ordering was so easy, done through the online portal using the QR code. Service was exceptional. I would highly recommend to everyone.
