Came to visit for afternoon tea during a holiday to Scarborough and it was absolutely fantastic - genuinely gutted to be going home so wouldn’t be able to visit readily. Was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, great price too! Was also the best cuppa I’ve had in a long, long time. Highly recommend!

It's a good sign that several of the tables were reserved, at lunchtime on a chilly day in early March. Luckily for us there was a free table. Food was excellent and the service very good too.

Really busy place, fantastic service! I had the Ham, egg and chips and it was perfect and plenty of it. chips were proper homemade chips! My friend had a panini and said it was lovely. And we were piggy’s and took some cake home and oh my days they were lush!! Will definitely be back! We need more places like this in the Scarborough area.

The cafe was really busy which is lovely to see, even so the staff were working really hard to keep everyone tended to and accommodated, especially Taz who was very helpful and friendly. The food was fantastic and the products used of very good quality. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area and will definitely be visiting again soon.

I visited here for afternoon tea with my husband. I have heard many glowing reviews so was keen to go and try the cakes! Afternoon tea consisted of: One pot of tea for 2. 4 slices of bread made into, tuna, ham, cheese and pickle and egg mayo sandwiches. 2 mini sausage rolls 2 mini quiches 2 scones 2 small slices of Victoria sponge 2 small pieces of tiffin Salad garnish (mixed lettuce, half a tomato and a splash of dressing). Although the food was nice (not fantastic) I really don't thinks it was worth £33! The sandwiches were basic, tuna lacked flavour, I'm no Gordon Ramsay but even I know when something requires more seasoning. The quiche was very soft and tasteless, the sausage rolls were good, maybe a little bigger (especially for the price). The tiffin was poor, digestive biscuits and raisins set in chocolate ganache with sprinkles, more of a kids party cake than afternoon tea. The Victoria sponge was ok, very small slices compared to the wedges on the counter. Scones were nice with jam and clotted cream. Overall very underwhelmed, I wouldn't go back, I think there is better out there for the same price. For £33 I expected something a bit different, like a more unusual sandwich filling or unique cake. Can't knock the staff, very friendly and the cafe was clean.

Popped in on a Wednesday mid morning, the cafe was not too busy, the staff where very efficient and friendly. We had a full breakfast with extra scrambled egg and a breakfast burger both very good. Would recommend for quality and value.

A lovely setting and, on the surface at least, the Yew Tree has lots going for it. Many tables already booked at 1045. However we stopped here for a coffee which we found rather disappointing. We have been really surprised at how good cafes have become at presenting their coffees, showing expertise at making the full repertoire, at various locations on the East Coast. But here, the coffees were like something from the bad old days. We suggest proper training for the baristas.

Worst pizza I've had in 10 years, small, tomato sauce straight out of chopped tomatoes tin. Waited almost 2 hours. It was busy though. Lol.
