Waited almost 45 minutes for 2 small breakfasts - asked 1 of the servers how long we were going to wait after 30 min and got told "they were busy"! Food was almost thrown on the table when it eventually arrived - NO apologies - NOTHING! the food wasn't that hot when it arrived either! If you have a life and don't wish to waste 45 mins waiting for a small "cool" breakfast give this place a miss!!!!
Came to cafe with my friend and brought my dog too. Such a lovely place to be able to go with your dog. They brought him water and a few sausage which was chopped up. Really enjoyed my lemon drizzle cake. Thank you to the staff for a lovely welcome and a great atmosphere.
Met up with some friends for breakfast. I chose the Avocado and poached eggs on toast. Bread was a little dry but overall the dish was nice. We had no sooner finished our food when we were then asked by the waitress how much longer we were going to be so we felt like we had to leave. Don’t expect to spend more than 45 minutes sat down before you are turfed out. Never been asked to leave a table before - ever 🥹
Easy to find, Pick your own seats. Order yourself when ready. (No waiting times) Cleanliness is spot on and dog friendly. We have been to multiple places around Ossett and this place is the best for your money in regards to breakfast. The sausages were incredible and I found out they were sourced from the local butchers around the corner. (Richmonds - The Butchers) You have so many options to personalise your breakfast with no fuss. The price was spot on £5.95 for a breakfast or A Big Breakfast you can see in the pictures was £9.95 and included any hot drink! This will be our go to for the future. Glad we found this cafe!
Enjoyed my first visit to the Well. Looked like everyone else did too. Had a friendly atmosphere and the sweet stuff was excellent. Good deal if you just want a hot drink and cake.
