Baldersons operate a row of shops on Thorton le dale including a bakery, coffee shop, gift shop and ice cream parlour. The business has been here years and I always stop off while visiting Yorkshire. My wife and I stopped off for a drink and sat in the patio area at the rear of the shop. You now have to wait to be seated which is fine and as we had two dogs with us we had to sit outside anyway. The outdoor decking is a lovely quiet area which is also sheltered in case it rains. Outside next to the seating area are a few bits for sale such as wood carvings which are very nice. There is no table service so you must go up and order your drinks etc and take it back to your table. On this visit my wife had a latte and I had a tea which were both fine. We also got a couple of cakes to take away which we ate later that day and were extremely tasty. The rocky road was a little hard, but still good and we were given a large slice of it. Only thing I disliked on my visit was the exit is no longer the way you enter the cafe. Customers without dogs can go through the gift shop which is fine, however we had dogs and so had to exit through a back gate. On our visit it started raining just as we were leaving and so had a bit of a walk to get back to our car. I really think Baldersons need to rethink this policy they have put in place.

Went in for a full English breakfast and wasn't disappointed. Service was excellent and friendly. Clean and tidy with loads of seating. Will come here again when in the area.

Very nice scones. Plenty of seating but not very wheelchair friendly. And the exit is through a gift shop which is unusual.

What a gem! A lovely locally run cafe. We had lunch there on a busy Sunday, but we were shown to a table quickly and the food arrived promptly. Lovely sandwiches and nice crispy chips. Great Coffee, too! You should pay this place a visit. Lovely adjoining gift shop, as a bonus on the way out.

Lovely bakery with friendly and welcoming staff. Delicious selection of breads, pastries and cakes. Window display is beautifully laid out and always tempts you in. Everything is nicely presented and clean, with prices well displayed. Wish I lived closer!

Brilliant food and good price. My partner and I had sandwiches each and a bowl of chips to share and a pot of tea. The sandwiches were fantastic. I had egg which was homemade filling not the mass produced type and my partner had beef which he said was to die for. You got a pot of tea and a water pot so you got SIX cups of tea for your money. Our advice is go hungry 😋

Lovely sandwiches and friendly helpful staff. The ingredients used are great quality too, which isn't reflected as much as you'd expect with prices. With most things being good value. One of my favourite local places to go when passing by.
