After a very long walk around the bay with our two dogs we were desperate for hot drinks and cakes! We were made to feel very welcome here, the staff couldn’t do enough for us. It was lovely as were the scones and tea. My husband had coffee which he enjoyed. A chap even brought us treats for the dogs which set the tails going! It’s a large enough place to accommodate dogs so if you’re not keen on them you are not forced to sit close to any. The view from the balcony is stunning.

Came in for a coffee, tea and a couple hot chocolates for the kids, very welcoming and friendly, great service, great venue, and a stunning view of the sea from the outside seating terrace.

Such a nice and cute little place.All the produce is clearly freshly baked/sourced, it was delicious. The scones are wonderful.

Coffee with a view! I enjoyed speciality coffee and pizza on the beachside terrace, a nice alternative to fish and chips or ice cream. It's a great vantage point across the bay, with lovely staff and a large menu to peruse.

Always come here several times on every visit to the Bay, sit outside regardless of the weather, just can't beat the views. Always gluten free choices on the menu & in the cake cabinet, staff always happy to alter things to suit, dog friendly as well!

Lovely place to stop and have something to eat and drink. Great location overlooking Robin Hood's Bay. It's sort of hidden away down a narrow alley as you wander down the narrow road to the beachfront but well signposted. Staff are very friendly.

Best view in all of Robin Hood’s Bay to enjoy a drink with family/friends. The staff including the owner are wonderful. Lovely sense of humour and kindness too. Great selection of alcoholic drinks (I had a gin) and the christmassy hot chocolates are an instant win (according to the kids). An absolute must if you are visiting x ???❤️??

Found this little gem on a rainy Sunday afternoon. The carrot and lentil soup was delicious, the roast beef paninis , generous filling and equally delicious. We would happily eat here again, friendly staff, good views when it's not raining.

Friendly cafe with a great environment. Beautiful view over the Bay. There was a great menu, with brunch and lunch options and also lovely looking cakes. We had gluten free cakes and coffee and a perfect place for a relaxing rest.

A really nice cafe overlooking the beach. Lovely views if you can get a seat on the veranda. Food was great, the hazelnut steamer was lush too. Well worth a stop after following the walk from Whitby.
