About Central Cafe
At 16 Oxford St in Harrogate, Central Cafe is a family-owned cafe serving crepes alongside full English and eggs benedict breakfasts. The breakfast menu gives the kitchen two cooked options, a full English breakfast and eggs benedict, while crepes sit next to them as a separate choice for customers who want something different. Coffee is served too, for people who want a quick morning stop rather than a full sit-down meal. The cafe is run by one family and keeps its menu centred on breakfast plates and crepes. Dogs are welcome, so customers can bring their pets along when they visit.

Customer Review Summary
Eggs benedict is the dish reviewers single out most, with one calling it cooked to perfection at breakfast. Crepes and apple pie get praise too, alongside coffee and friendly service, and several mention the food as excellent. One reviewer disagrees sharply, describing thick, stodgy crepes, awful scotch pancakes and a cold full English breakfast, with staff who did not smile.

“Had a lovely experience at Central Caffe Harrogate. The atmosphere is really welcoming and relaxed, the food and drinks were excellent, and the service was friendly and attentive. It’s a great little spot to stop for a coffee and something to eat, whether you’re catching up with friends or just enjoying a quiet break. Would definitely recommend and will happily be back!”

“Crepes were not crepes, disgusting, very thick and stodgy. Scotch pancakes tasted awful and full English breakfast cold. Staff not at all friendly not even a smile”
