Went to grab breakfast after looking at the other reviews and it did not disappoint! The owners are so lovely and welcoming.
Fantastic breakfast. Got the 'Half English' and it was delicious and very filling! Generous portions for great value indeed! The cafe is family run and Violet is such a delight. A great place to eat and nice to have a locally owned independent cafe in town 😀👌
Not many good cafes stay open in Selby late afternoon on a Saturday. We thought we may be forced to eat at Costa - until we stumbled on this place. Great food at very reasonable prices in cute surroundings. Plus we got served by the lovely Violet herself!
What a lovely little gem this is. If you find yourself in Selby definitely go here to eat. The food is cooked fresh and near perfect. I had a full breakfast and cappuccino and there was plenty of it. Definitely going here again.
Violet kindly arranged my daughters wedding reception The food was fantastic and the hospitality was so friendly I would reccomend to everyone coming to selby to visit
