Such a lovely place. Super friendly & welcoming staff in a relaxed atmosphere serving top quality produce. It’s slightly more expensive for a full English, but once you get it you see why. They don’t use run of the mill cash & carry, they’re using proper stuff. It was absolutely divine, we’ll definitely be going back.

Superb afternoon tea to celebrate Mother’s Day with my mum. Lovely spot along the river this cafe has been transformed by its new owners who have changed the interior and made the menu much more modern and interesting. Had the best egg mayo sandwiches I’ve ever had, perfect scones and so much cake we had to take some home. Must also compliment the tea which was delicious and also the staff who were warm and welcoming. Lovely terrace to sit outside on which we’re short of in Pateley, dog friendly too. So happy to have somewhere in the town that serves the kind of food I want to eat. Thanks for a lovely afternoon.

I don’t often do reviews but for this cafe I’ll make an exception. The cappuccino was the best I’ve ever tasted-made by someone who knew what they were doing, the cakes and scones were also excellent. Will definitely be returning.

Recently re-opened under new ownership, this is an absolute gem. We went for the burgers with chunky chips. Everything about it was top notch. The bacon atop the burgers(two patties) was gorgeous, as was the brioche bun and even the salsa and mayo. Real attention to detail. We will definitely be back and try something different from the menu. The view if you sit outside is wonderful too.
