Visited Cake' ole again and had a really nice experience. Drew, who took my order, was very friendly and welcoming, which made the visit more enjoyable. I had a small pumpkin spice latte it had a simple latte art, which added a nice touch for photos. I also tried the almond raspberry tart and a summer fruits herbal tea, both of which were delicious. The café has a calm and comfortable atmosphere, with a great selection of cakes and sweets.
I really enjoy visiting this café. The cakes are always delicious, the staff are really friendly and their espresso is moreish. I don't know how they get their espressos that good but it pairs so well with their chocolate cake. A good selection of teas, including more niche options such as Russian caravan which can make for an interesting experience. Honestly, if you're in Bradford, a must visit.
A great find in the heat of Bradford. The staff were welcoming and knowledgeable. Plenty of choice for my brother who is vegan. All the food they were serving looked incredible. The prices were extremely competitive. Would definitely go again if I visit Bradford. They just have everything right.
Lovely café in the heart of Bradford. Each time I visited I was welcomed warmly. The café is fun and has a great vibe. The menu had lots of tempting items. I had my first ever panini with a cup of gravy for dunking, which was delicious. Other visits were cake focused and very satisfying.
Cafe with lots of bird boxes, gnomes, fake grass and characters festooming the walls. Good selection of teas served in various proper, mismatced teapots. Large portions of cake. Lemonade, coke and hot chocolate can be served flavoured with syrups.
