A little gem in Grassington village!
You wouldn't expect to find a vegetarian-only cafe in the middle of the Yorkshire Dales, but if you're looking for top quality meat/gluten/dairy free light options, you can't get much better.
A cosy cafe, we got a big welcome from the owner. The lunch menu was a wide variety of veggie options (I'm not even vegetarian but I was more than happy), with a lot of the items being dairy and/or gluten free which was great for one of our friends.
I ordered the cheese and homemade pickle toastie, and I split a cream tea and a piece of gluten free carrot cake. All was absolutely delicious. The price came to about £12 which was great value.
You'd struggle to find something like this in London. I'd definitely recommend whether you're veggie or not.
Tasty coffee. Nice, strong espresso and good cortado.
Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.
The cake selection was good and the chocolate fudge cake and raspberry Victoria slice were delicious. However, I think the £4.20 and £4 price for these was high.
Wonderful lunch at the Retreat a few weeks ago. The cafe offers a number of gluten free alternatives, very attentive to dietary needs. My vegan, gluten free soup was gorgeous. Also dog friendly. Lovely ambience. Many thanks indeed :-)
The Retreat tearoom and bistro has a particular charm that invites you in. I ordered 3 eggs omelette with cheddar, ham and spinach, fruit scone with jam and cream, coffee. They were all delicious and fresh. The staff is friendly, efficient and polite.
You can get the usual sandwiches but also something different like chicken tikka toastie. Cozy and good location.
Lovely lunches served here wiyh freindly staff. I've had the Burger and fries which was beautiful and another visit I had the cream tea which was very nice too.
Excellent service and delicious food. Great to come if you have dietary requirements, they have a great veggie & vegan menu. Their dairy free chocolate cake alone is well worth the hour & a half journey! Also dog friendly too!
Lovely little tearoom in the heart of Grassington. Great range of gluten and dairy free homemade food. I had a gf scone and it was the best I've ever had. The coffee was excellent too. Very friendly staff that were happy to help and its dog friendly. Extremely clean and pretty decor throughout. Prices were reasonable for everything. We will definitely go back.
There are a lot of places to eat in Grassington. We chose The Retreat because of the menu. So glad we did, delicious coffee and really tasty falafel wrap. Staff were friendly, highly recommend.
Quaint little cafe in the heart of Grassington village with good range of gluten-free options. Other reviewers have already posted the menu which is available online too. As with many popular venues you may struggle to get a table, but that shouldn't put you off trying. Food quality and pricing good too.
The young staff were very attentive without being overly so.
We had a lovely breakfast at The Retreat whilst vacationing in Grassington. Would recommend trying the scrambled eggs with spinach. Great service and friendly staff.
