I visited with my family (there were four of us) and unfortunately the experience was very poor. We all ordered toasties with chips, but the service was extremely slow and our meals came out one by one rather than together. On top of that, our order was brought out incorrectly twice. When it finally arrived correctly, one of the toasties was only half a portion and had to be sent back. Staff did acknowledge the issues and offered us free cake, which was appreciated, but it didn’t really make up for the overall experience. For such a simple order, the level of service was disappointing and not something I’d expect.
So friendly and hospitable- and lovely atmosphere - lovely Riverside town centre location and within a beautifully restored Mill. Superb fresh coffee and high quality food. Cannot recommend it highly enough- shares ground floor with a lovely gift shop selling a wide range of quality items - cafe accessed by walking through the shop. Lovely too that wall decor includes boards with comprehensive history of the mill and town.
Popped in for a quick coffee, carrot cake and fizz (for the wife). Place was set away from the main strip so not as busy with lots of indoor seating. Was served quickly and staff were friendly. There was a gift shop attached to the cafe which had some traditional as well as quirky gifts so worth a visit.
Visited for lunch today with my friend and family. Having told them how nice it was, I was seriously disappointed. The menu comprised of fried food. No salad, no sandwiches and unappetising looking cakes. The girls serving were nice and friendly but awfully slow. We ordered from the menu anyway. It took over 30 minutes for the food to come. It was served on takeaway plates and was poor. A dried out piece of chicken in the chicken burger, nachos with cheese not melted, cheap fried chips. Yet the price, well it was very expensive. £17 for the substandard chicken burger and chips. We’ll definitely not be going again.
Really great visit today, weather awesome so able to sit outside. Coffee very good, cakes really outstanding, perfect mid-ride boost. Weather meant the centre of Hebden Bridge was like the South of France - everyone enjoying themselves outside making for a special atmosphere. Highly recommended!
