A lovely little dog friendly place for brunch in Whitby. Would highly reccomend and have been multiple times. Everytime have had wonderful service and delicious food. The eggs benedict is beautiful!

Stumbled across this place as normally go to Sanders yard. Beautiful place, friendly staff and the avocado, smoked salmon and poached eggs certainly helped with my hangover. Will definitely come back ?

I've just eaten the best wrap EVER!!!!!! It was a falafel wrap with mango chutney, coronation chickpeas and mint yoghurt with a sweet chilli dip....delicious.Everything was fresh and so tasty and the wrap was packed full. You simply must try this. I also tried, for the first time, a pistachio and marzipan tea and this too was superb, if you like pistachios and marzipan as much as me. My friend's had the bacon and brie on toast and the smashed avocado on toast and both loved them.The service was great and the interior of the cafe was like a old fashioned eclectic teashop with miss-matched teacups etc. A great place.Vegetarian options: I strongly recommend the falafel wrap.

This is a superb cafe for a late breakfast! I arrived around 11am and was seated quickly and had an amazing cup of tea while waiting on breakfast. While I will say the service was a bit slow and hit or miss, I can understand it as they seemed understaffed. However, this was easily forgivable considering the amazing food that was served to me. Everything was full of flavor! I highly reccomened this restaurant!

6 of us decided to just pop in to this little back street cafe restaurant. Lovely little courtyard area and plenty of inside seating. Cakes were delicious and sandwiches top-notch. We also had the sea food chowder, which was lovely and packed with all sorts of fish. And home made tomatoe soup and fresh bread. Only down side was it took 30 minutes to serve all 6 of us, and items came out one at a time so the hot food would have been cold if we hadn't eaten it straight away and wait for everyone to get their items. Drinks are reasonable, and prices are good. I think the staff were a little over run as it was reasonably busy. Would go back but perhaps only when it was a little quieter.

The falafel wrap with salad was just gorgeous. I'm rubbish at remembering to leave reviews so the fact I'm typing this says how good our lunch was last Saturday.The salad was beautiful and not just a throw on the side forgettable thing. Dressing was so good I had to ask what was in it!All round great lunch in a hidden away spot with quirky furnishings and friendly accommodating staff.Not having visited Whitby in years I was grateful to find this gem of a place with its little sunny courtyard and lovely inside space.Note to anyone hating crowds - weekend's are v busy around the harbour in Whitby and going up to the Abbey. Get there early to park.Would return happily just to eat here again. Yum.Dietary restrictions: Make a mean decaff oat milk cappuccino!

Decent if not outstanding. Lovely courtyard, interior also pleasant. Ordered various brunches between us. Was merely OK. Weird ambiguous tasting smashed avocado. Bacon and sausages were a bit supermarket. Delicious Oolong tea.Step up the food and this would be a great out of the way spot.

Came here for brunch/ lunch after a recommendation from the young lady at the Deli down the road. We certainly weren’t disappointed. Excellent friendly service from the start. We all ordered eggs benedict - the eggs were perfectly poached, and the hollandaise sauce velvety. The latte was one of the best I’ve had. The Gentleman ( possibly the manager) was friendly and pleasant and really made our visit memorable!

Shame that this lovely quirky cafe appears to have gone downhill. Called in for brunch recently, the menu was very limited compared to previously and the owner was cheerless and unenthusiastic which definitely dampened our experience. We ordered a cold sharing platter and mushrooms on toast which took an hour to arrive at the table.

What a wonderful little find. We said outside in the courtyard and it felt as though you could have been somewhere in Europe. Great food and good service.

Love this cafe- I had the best Mushroom soup in the world! Lovely cake, perfect breakfast. Staff are lovely and the decor is so fitting. Thanks a lot xx

Hidden away down a side street in Whitby you’ll find a place which you wished you’d found a lot earlier! Eating can take place in or outside in their tranquil garden setting. The gentleman who greeted us was polite and accommodating with our wishes. The menu is interesting, but not overwhelming. I went for the smashed avocado with a side of smoked salmon, the most divine smoked salmon I’ve tasted in many a year! The rest of our party went for various dishes on the menu, which were well presented and excellent grade. It’s also super value for money! Give it a go!

I called in here for a coffee, but was very impressed by the look of the food, the excellent service, and pleasant atmosphere. I regretted having already eaten breakfast.
