Awful. No atmosphere. Basic overpriced menu. All food comes wrapped in grease proof paper. Why? If I wanted a takeaway I would have got one.uncomfortable outdoor chairs. Avoid.
Two cups of tea and two pieces of cake for £13! Seems expensive to me! Chairs very uncomfortable too, and weirdly, cake on sheets of baking paper instead of a plate!!
My cake (dark choc and orange) was good but daughter had Victoria Sponge, which she said wasn't great.
Waitress was lovely and did a good job.
I mean it’s not too bad. The guy running it was ok, waitress kept staring so felt off putting. The food, though basic, was delicious. Always been confused why they don’t use plates. If you are looking for somewhere quiet and chill you’d love it, but at the same time perhaps some background music would be nice. The tables are ok, though there was a long hair left on mine but I like the flower decorations on them. The seats are uncomfortable though, and it’s quite expensive for what it is. Not much choice on the menu, but the food does come quite fast.
A rather bizarre experience. On arrival the greeting was warm and we (my wife and I) were shown to our seats. However the atmosphere and decor were both rather sterile, but we pressed on and ordered a couple of snacks and 2 teas. The menu was a little sparse and looked very simple (I was really hoping for a scone but alas this was not an option).
The food arrived wrapped in grease proof paper - the only thing that made us think we hadn’t accidentally ordered a takeaway was the fact that our teas were brought in teapots to pour into mugs! The grease proof paper made the food a bit soggy (tea cakes and cinnamon toast) and we were genuinely bemused that the food was not brought on plates.
The experience overall was not great, almost comical. We read some other reviews whilst in the cafe and our experience was very similar to some of the more recent reviews.
A lick of paint, some artwork and some background music (plus food being delivered on plates) would have made a huge difference to our experience…
A nice, small independent café, close to the town centre. Very appealing aesthetics, along with large plastic dividers between tables. The toilets are very nicely equipped with baby changing and everything that could be needed along with a high chair for babies. The staff were very kind and helped us to find a suitable table and they were very prompt with collecting our order. Unfortunately a wait of 15 - 20 minutes was rather large for three paninis and a cheese sandwich but when the food arrived it was delicious and still hot. Overall a very reasonably priced café definitely worth the visit
Don't expect to be served cake wrapped in a piece of greaseproof paper in a cafe. Wheres the plates?
If I'd wanted a takeaway, I'd have gone to Greggs
Visit Cafe Cafe for lunch, was welcomed by staff who helped us put our pram in a safe place and guided us to some seating upstairs, we sat by the window in a small booth with safety dividers between tables. The menu was a single side of A4 which was appreciated. I chose to have a ham, cheese and pepper panini which was exceptionally good with an affordable price tag, they had a selection of drinks and was overall an amazing place to pop in for lunch. I'd recommend this if you are visiting Otley.
Great at covid planning with screens for each table. As I was on my own I was directed to a little table by the bar and away from the window, it felt quite cut off and not relaxing so I didnt stay If I was with friends and at a larger table I'd have been more comfortable. It did feel cold however and on a rainy day, I'd have apprexiated a warmer cafe.
Sadly the decaf cappucino, though tasty, was overpriced. It was £3 and smaller than your average 12oz, hence 3 stars.
The coffee quality looked great and I would consider going again in the future when served in porcelaine cups rather than paper (I appreciate this is a covid thing but when sitting in I do prefere the porcelain).
