- Cenk GümüşcüoğluOctober 9, 2014One of the "must visit" places in York. A very elegant, classic tea room with lots of delicious cakes. Great for a breakfast. You might have to wait in the line in some hours.
- Jonathan PayneJune 5, 2018Great food, great location and great service! We got the English Breakfast, Avocado Toast, Florentine Eggs. All were superb! Coffee and tea were magnificent to top it all off!
- Ece InancNovember 30, 2014This place is the thing to do while you're in York. Usually huge queues outside and very nice atmosphere inside. Although it's nice enough, i can't say the tea was super special
- A good brunch on weekends! The Swiss rösti with scrambled eggs is 👌🏼😍 chicken club sandwich is also 👌🏼 vanilla and berries buff 😍😍😍
- Jessica WickhamDecember 8, 2017My favourite place in York. Perfect any time of the year, seasonal delights in the window. Go for afternoon tea and get a fat rascal to take away - trust me
- Jack SmithSeptember 15, 2021Popular with tourists mostly. Known for its afternoon tea, but serves breakfast, lunch and dinners. If the queue goes as far as the Ivy, then expect 30-40 min wait. Reservations are recommended.
