Customer Review Summary
Cyclists, walkers and motorbikers make up much of the crowd here, and reviewers most often praise the food that fuels a ride. The fish finger burger and the chocolate flapjack stand out for one cyclist, who calls the flapjack the best they have had. Close behind are a breakfast of poached eggs on toast with mushrooms, a breakfast butty, and a rocky road described as fantastic. Others mention a gingerbread oat latte, a raspberry crumble shortbread, and tea that comes in a mug, just like home. Service is described repeatedly as friendly and lovely, and one reviewer says it stayed quick even when the cafe was busy. Several note good outdoor seating and reasonable prices, and one says it is very busy in summer. No complaints appear in the reviews. One biker with a motorcycle problem says the staff went to the back, asked around, and returned with exactly the screwdriver needed, and he fixed the bike and brought it back.

“Stopped here as the halfway point on an epic cycle ride through Wensleydale. The fish finger burger was one of the best fish finger sandwiches I've ever had and the chocolate flapjack was most definitely the best I've had. Service was lovely too, and pretty quick given it was quite busy. Can't wait to return. I might even bring the wife.”
