Had a lovely afternoon tea for 2. Fresh sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, some amazing cakes to choose from all served with a selection of teas. Definitely recommend it.
Had an absolutely fantastic lunch here, with a prawn and lemon mayo doorstop of a sandwich, and a scone with jam and cream to follow. Loved that the cups of tea came in an amazing vintage teapot with a proper China cup and saucer and the brews tasted great. The staff were brilliant, and the spot was totally unique, sitting outside to watch people come up or down the iconic 199 steps. Overall, we had a lovely visit. Highly recommended!
Lovely coffee. Great cakes, all looked lovely but the biscoff was delicious. Dog friendly. Brilliant service
What a fantastic little place this was definitely a good find while at work. . ????. The chicken and pesto sandwich with home bread i definitely recommend ..
First visit to the Whitby Abbey fantastic historical site.
Treat yourself to a coffee masterclass, with of course a homemade slice of cake.
Run by an enthusiastic couple with a passion for the business. You won't be disappointed, and its a great stop, at the bottom of the steps.
Good luck with your new adventure...
A cunningly placed cafe at the foot of the Abbey steps, beckoning to the would-be mountaineer.
The flat white was delicious. The coffee to milk ratio was perfect, not a pretend latte. Textured milk to give the velvet micro-foam with no signs of layering. Maximum taste in a small package.
The cafe itself was quirky and welcoming. We loved the time capsule record decorations adorning the walls, and the staff were super friendly. But then it's Yorkshire, so everyone is :-)
Highly recommended.
Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. My father couldn’t make it up the 199 steps so he stayed at the cafe while we walked up to the abbey and came down. Ordered a much needed coffee. Friendly enough to let my son use the bathroom as well considering we only ordered one coffee. A lot to choose from on the menu too. Wish I hadn’t eaten prior to stopping in because the cake looked magnificent! Will be returning next time I’m in Whitby.
Really loved this place.
Went with a party of 11 and they fit us all in.
Asked for gluten free options for myself and they didn't have anything due to just opening, so I had a dark hot chocolate instead to fill me up. It was delicious but it only comes in a small cup so ordered another. (On my second visit they provided it in a latte cup and it felt a lot more substantial. I loved the finish on it)
My family had mostly breakfast sandwiches like sausage and bacon and black pudding but they looked great and they really didn't take long.
The staff were so lovely. So down to earth.
And they came to me after the second hot chocolate and said they'd just bought some gluten free bread if I wanted a sandwich, which was so considerate of them. But I was full from my two hot chocolates ???? but I had some toast and it was very good gf bread.
The lattes were absolutely delicious. We came back for seconds after climbing the steps and I can't describe the flavour too well, but it was like espresso and liquorice, but not overpowering.
They said it was their own special blend. It was well worth it.
They also had some outside seating which was cramped but delightful.
I hope to go back soon and see if any more gf options.
Edit: went back a few months later for the same dark hot chocolate and it was even better. Love this!!
