I have to admit I have not personally seen or used this new cafe but, in July my two sisters and an Italian friend did visit.  My two sisters and I grew up in Chiswick and Chiswick House grounds were pretty much our back garden for many years, Jonah the Italian friend, pretty much lived with us in the 50s and therefore the trip to Chiswick House was a trip down memory lane for them all.

They all three of them were completely disappointed with the cafe.  Jonah described it as a "train station" architecturally and the food as being no better than what you would get in a train station. (I think they would have appreciated something along the lines of the Maids of Honour tearoom)

Chiswick House is a lovely park for residents and tourists alike.  I have no idea how much money was spent on refurbing this cafe but it sounds like it was a total waste.  The Italian wondered why there was no gift shop? after all this park is not just used by locals and maybe that would not be such a bad idea.
