Well Harrogate was quiet but this place was buzzing. Absolutely fabulous little place and nice and clean. Great Menu, super friendly and welcoming staff, very efficient too. Great seating areas and the food was amazing...the nosebags went on as soon as it was served. Also lovely coffee...and nice cakes to take home too. Loved it and we’ll be back as soon as we can

Great place for breakfast. Service was excellent and food was a high standard. The 'Indian Eggs' with raita and mango chutney was unusual and delightful. 'Graviaks on Rosti' with beetroot cured salmon was also very good. If I lived local this would be a regular place for food. Thanks

Lovely little cafe in central Harrogate. Very busy. Delicious food and a varied menu. We had brunch but more menu options available after 12noon. The waffles people were having also amazing. We had the sausage Pittypanne which was very filling. Service could have been a bit friendlier, hence the 3 stars. There is a shop a few doors down which sells the bakery items and bread from the cafe.

Loved the food here! It’s fresh, scandi and so tasty. The duck fat chips were the absolute star of the show, OMG! Highly recommended. They had friendly service and a laid back atmosphere which was dog friendly both inside and outside. Back to the food the the club sandwich was lovely and very generous, complete with pickled veg and potato salad on the side which were both really nice as well. The open sandwich with smoked beetroot was really good here, everything was just good here.

A more unique offering in the town and a great option for brunch. The interior dining area is spacious but fills up fast, so expect to have to wait at busy times. The service from the staff is welcoming and friendly with everyone being attentive and fast. The menu has a good range and a mix of familiar dishes as well as some more traditional Scandinavian items. Portion sizes are large and with the quality of the food represent good value. The fresh pastries are equally as large and tasty, so whether you’re wanting a full meal or a lighter breakfast you won’t be disappointed. Overall it’s a great place and for something a little different I’ll certainly be returning.

Visited 23 August with family for coffee and cake. As it was later on in the afternoon, many of the cakes were already sold out. I decided on the gluten free waffles with jam and cream, which was big enough to share and delicious. My husband had the sourdough cookie, which was also a triumph. We also had americanos, a cappuccino and an Oreo milkshake. All were fantastic. They had oat and soy milk available and could do the milkshake as vegan if needed. We had a bit of a spillage when we were there which was dealt with quickly by the staff, who were efficient and friendly throughout. The toilets were nice and clean. I would highly recommend.
