Customer Review Summary
Desserts draw the most consistent praise, with reviewers repeatedly singling out beautifully presented plates that taste fresh, from crepes and strawberries to waffles and pancakes and a white chocolate and raspberry cookie dough. Close behind, diners describe attentive servers going out of their way, checking in often, accommodating dietary requirements, and even preparing an off-menu dish for a child. The croffle with poached eggs and hollandaise also earns a mention as a savory standout. The recurring caveat is price, with several noting the cost feels steep for the portions, particularly a cup of tea and a dessert priced at £10.50 that one reviewer felt was small for the money. The atmosphere is consistently called clean and pleasant, good for catching up with friends. One family recalls being given a voucher for a return visit after a server cleared their table so they could keep playing a card game.

“★★★★☆ We had a really enjoyable visit to Heavenly Desserts in York. There’s a huge selection on the menu, with plenty of choice for everyone, and the desserts we ordered were very good. Everything was nicely presented, tasted fresh and certainly satisfied our sweet tooth! The only thing that stops me giving five stars is the price. It’s a little on the expensive side, particularly some of the drinks – the price of a cup of tea felt especially steep for what it was. That aside, the atmosphere was pleasant, the service was good and we all enjoyed our desserts. A nice place to visit for a treat, and somewhere we’d happily return to.”

“Marzia was very attentive and ensured my boys got the window seat they wanted despite it being very busy she took the time to especially clean the table for them. She gave us good recommendations for food and had fantastic knowledge of the menu. She kept checking in on us and ensure we were never without anything we needed. She even especially made some fried eggs for my youngest which were not on the menu. She cleared the table swiftly after we finished so we could continue to play our game if Uno with plenty of space. Would highly recommend coming to heavenly desserts for lunch and we hope to have Marzia as our waitress again. I could tell all the other clients around us loved her too. We were also given a voucher for next time we visit - bonus!”
