About Strensall Coffee House
Strensall Coffee House is a cafe on Barley Rise in York, serving breakfast and lunch throughout the day. Breakfast baps are cooked to order, and a full breakfast comes with eggs. A cheese scone with cream cheese and chutney sits alongside the cappuccino on the coffee side of the menu. The cafe takes walk-ins rather than bookings, and it opens daily during daytime hours only. A step-free, wheelchair-accessible entrance welcomes visitors with mobility needs, and high chairs are on hand for families with young children. Outdoor seating gives another option for those who want to eat outside.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most for the friendly, welcoming staff, who several say treat regulars and elderly parents like family and seem to know customers by name. Breakfast is the main food draw, with baps cooked to order and arriving hot and generously filled, and a full breakfast with a runny egg praised as cooked to perfection. Close behind is the coffee, described as good quality, excellent and served promptly, with one reviewer singling out a delicious cappuccino. A home made cheese scone with cream cheese and chutney also impressed one visitor. Diners call the food fresh and tasty, the portions generous, and the cafe clean and comfortable, a spot for catching up with friends or reading a book. No complaints appear, though one reviewer would like to see Turkish eggs, menemen, a falafel wrap and houmous with flatbread added to the menu. One visitor, who lives in a village with plenty of coffee shops, says they will make the journey back.
