I got a steak and kidney pie and a curds and whey tarts. The pie was amazing, the tenderest steak and the biggest bits of kidney I have ever got, in a steak and kidney pie. The pastry was really good too. I would have given 5 stars, but the tart let it down, I have had better, some of the currants were hard as bullets. I knew I should have had the last 2 Eccles cakes!!
We made a point to stop by here to sample their delicious warm pork pies. Verdict? Delicious! We even took some away to freeze for later enjoyment. Towards the end of our visit to this quaint town we returned to indulge in their apple turnovers - full of cream and delightfully wicked! Oh, and the staff, whilst extremely busy were patient and friendly. Thank you!
Ordered a cheese salad box and the below image is what I received. 4 pieces of cucumber, tomato, some lettuce and a couple of spoonfuls of cheese. No options for any other salad, no offer of sauces and I paid £3 for it! We also ordered a sandwich for which we were charged 35p per salad item that went on it. Won’t be returning. We deliberately try to support local businesses rather than chains so when this happens we are really disappointed .
Poor hygiene and health and safety by The older lady who served me,she had open wounds around her nails and black in her finger nails. She picked up the carrot cake I ordered no gloves sticking her fingers in to the cream, she boxed up the items leaving cream all around the box.
I couldn't bring myself to eat it.
Few days later walked past the shop and saw her grabbing a sausage roll with her whole hand, again no gloves.
She really needs to learn about handling people's food. I mean come on, open wounds and fingers in the cream ????
The other ladies in there do not do this, they are lovely and use paper to pick the items. It's salad fingers needs taking to the back and having a talking to, or sending on a course.
What a great local Bakery to purchase freshly made sandwiches, pies & cakes. We were staying locally and just wanted some fresh food to eat back at our hotel. This was perfect. Also, so nice to be able to support a local business, rather than a large multi-national one. Great service with a smile.
Had been wanting to go in here for a while, it was closed last time I visited so today I stocked up on a few items. Buying one of their bread and butter puddings was a must, and I got one of the large meringue tarts too. Nothing has any prices on, so the total was a bit of a shock, I had to go back in to double check there hadn't been an error made on the meringue price. There hadn't. Ooo, errrr, missus, shan't be buying another one of those then. What I have sampled so far has been nice, but I think more for a special treat for me, rather than anything more regular, as it's a bit on the pricey side.
We have to stop here whenever we come to Knaresborough. The cakes are amazing, and the staff are lovely. Always up for a chat and advise on what to order. The carrot cake was the nicest ever! And my son recommends the gingerbread
We looked in the window and the display of buns and cakes just drew us into the bakery it’s so refreshing to see such a selection of different breads cakes and buns not to mention the bread and butter pudding they also do a selection of pies savouries and sandwiches I have to say I’ve just eaten a couple of slice of the granary loaf so tasty and filling this is not a restaurant
My only comment why don’t you display prices on your breads and cakes well worth a visit
