A hidden gem just outside Barnsley! ☕🌿 We visited The View Café and absolutely loved it. The location is peaceful and scenic, offering beautiful views of the town from a distance – perfect for a relaxing break away from the city buzz. The coffee was delicious (bonus points for the cute coffee art!), and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. A great spot to unwind, enjoy nature, and sip a warm drink with a view. Highly recommended if you're in the area!

Lovely Full English breakfast, breakfast bagel and kids waffles with fresh fruit. Fab view in the first proper sunshine of the year. Can't wait to visit again x
Amazing cafe and bar with a cracking view of Barnsley! They have a campsite but for motorhomes only. It would be amazing if they could open it up for tents!
Great location with a gorgeous view. Food was fresh and tasty. Staff really friendly. Lovely little place
