We visited The Flip Side in Skipton for breakfast and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, and the staff are really friendly. We ordered cappuccino, a vanilla milkshake topped with cream, and some savoury crêpes with salad – everything was fresh, tasty, and beautifully presented. The crêpes were full of flavour and felt authentic, and the milkshake was a real treat. A perfect spot to start our city break in Skipton – highly recommended!
We just popped in for a hot drink on a cold day. Briefly tempted by the cakes, which looked gorgeous. We eventually caved in and got a couple of toasted teacakes. The cafe is deceptively large. There are a couple of steps to go up to get to the back of the cafe and the toilets. Very clean throughout. Happy, smiling staff.
Really lovely small cafe, beautifully decorated and wonderful service from all the girls here. Really enjoyed popping in during our trip to Skipton. Drinks are to die for, massive selection and food was fab as well. Lots of veggie options. My partner got a classic breakfast sandwich and I got a veggie mushroom and spinach toastie which was gorgeous. All really reasonably priced too!!
This little place was a revelation. Vegan, gluten free and dog friendly. The staff were really helpful, service was quick and portion size is good. All the crepes are naturally gluten free and vegan…. Winner!!!
One of the best iced coffees i’ve ever had! whenever i come to skipton i can’t help but come and get a pistachio iced coffee every time its that good! would 100% recommend
