The food here is really nice, and the café has a cosy atmosphere with some outdoor seating available as well. The staff were fine, though they could have shown a little more enthusiasm.

Quaint little corner. Lovely quiet find. A warm welcome and served with a smile. Food delicious. Thoroughly recommend the ham and cheese stottie. Huge pot of hot refreshing tea. The cakes looked delicious and all homemade but we were too full to try. Look forward to returning when we are next in Whitby.

The food was nice but there was a staff member who was very rude upon our arrival as they assumed we only wanted to use the toilet. The way we were spoken to made us feel unwelcome. We stayed and had some food which was nice but if we hadn't have been so hungry from a long drive we would have went elsewhere.

It says dog friendly but I have just been turned away with my little collie. The very unfriendly lady at the counter said it was because my pooch was wet due to the rain. This cafe should not advertise itself as dog friendly.
