Tried a variety of hot drinks all were made to perfection. Home made cakes looked unreal but was too full up to try. Prices were very fair. Very popular but order was taken promptly and food and drinks delivered almost straight away. Food was high quality with only the best ingredients used. 1 star removed due to the toilets.

Wonderful day trip from York! We rented 3 bikes: 2 mountain bikes + 1 e-bike for the non-cyclist among us (me). The Swale Trail was lovely and a very pleasant ride along the river and past green pastures. On the way back, we decided to stick to the road, as it was smoother and had barely any traffic, plus it gave us a different vantage point. It was a bit of an effort to get to the top of the hill, but then it was smooth sailing all the way back down into town.
The best thing about the rental experience, though, was the proprietor. He's the type of person you can instantly sense is a caring and decent human being. He was pleasant, helpful, and graciously accommodating of us making last-minute changes. Truly a pleasure!

It's been a while since we've visited Dales Bike Centre and it did not dissapoint.The new cafe is excellent, the rooms comfy,quiet and clean. Excellent breakfast and superb Yorkshire dales riding. Even though we've ridden there a few times we booked a guided ride which was excellent with 'new to us' trails! great place to base yourself oh and the pubs in Reeth are great with good food and excellent beers, just a short walk from the bike centre.

On a big ride through the Dales this place was brilliant! Sorted my gears out while i had lunch… i would have been in trouble without them.
Great place, friendly atmosphere excellent mechanics, shop and top cafe! 🙌🚵♀️👍👊🤩 thanks 😊

We’ve just cycled the Yorkshire Dales Cycleway as a three generation family and this was the best and most welcome stop on our route. The cycle shop was incredibly friendly when we turned up soaking wet needing to charge a couple of our bikes. We had delicious paninis and cake in the cafe whilst they charged. Due to the very heavy rain we wanted to change our route and a road was closed, the man in the cycle shop (sorry I didn’t catch your name), found us another cyclist in the cafe that had managed to pass the road that we wanted to use. This is an absolute must place to stop. Thank you!

Really helpful staff in the bike shop, sorted me out with explaining shifting as first time hiring road bike. Cafe has a great range of cakes. Already planning when I can come back
Sheila Park
The cakes here are all delicious and very reasonable.
English breakfasts tasty and lovely bread used for sandwiches Take away available. We couldnt resist calling in on our way home to purchase 5 cakes for £10.

We went to the cafe after a long hike. The food was excellent and the service great. There is amble indoor and outdoor seating. There’s also a toilet on the site.

You would struggle to have a better group MTB weekend. Stu and his team organised fantastic days rides and the facilities are fantastic for groups. The rooms are shared and use shared bathrooms but he is building new accommodation that will address that. A group of 8 of us had the most fun weekend. Beautiful area and two villages nearby with various eating options. The Dales Bike Centre itself serves and awesome breakfast and has a fabulous coffee shop. Highly recomended.

Just come back from a MTB weekend in the Yorkshire Dales. Stu (and Sean) were brilliant. Great guiding, great scenery, great service, and brilliant breakfasts (the sausages were superb). The Cafe is great, really modern, and the staff were ever so friendly. Nothing was too much, and have some great memories. Btw, the Dales were spectacular!
Highly recommended.
Andrew Mark
Well worth a visit and stay, the staff and facilities are great.
The cafe does a cracking coffee and cakes. They also do a nice breakfast if needed to fuel your rides.
The bike shop/mechanic was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.
Great place to stay, would 100% stay here again and recommend to friends.
The rides are just a little hilly for us flatlanders ���� climbed more here in three days than I have all year �
Shaun Rogers
Superb staff and facilities in a great location. I have been visiting the shop and café for many years now, mostly as a base to go mountain biking but also somewhere to come with my family and meet friends. The shop is small but with what you need; stuff that works and good advice and service. The food is fabulous and I have always found friendly folks visiting as walks, mountain bikers or road cyclists, young and less young all enjoying themselves. This place just keeps getting better.
Simon Vick
A fantastic venue for a refuel on what was a rather wet Wednesday afternoon Ride.
The servicing staff are extremely accommodating and the minor repair I required was carried out without fuss whilst I refuelled and warmed up in the comfort of the cafe.
The warm welcome and friendly staff are first rate.. As too are the selection of cakes/scones to accompany a warm cup of tea.
Paul Tyrrell
Amazing, staff couldn't do enough for us. Facilities are great, good shower, kitchen area with tea, coffee, 2x hobs for cooking and a toaster. Beds very clean and comfy.
Cafe downstairs does a cracking coffee, very plentiful breakfast if needed.
Bike shop/mechanic was very helpful, give us free tokens to wash our bikes and helped us oil them and adjust them where needed.
Great place to stay, would 100% stay here again and recommend to friends.
Keep up the good work

My husband stumbled across this little diamond whilst on a bike ride. Before I knew it he had a room booked! We took the kids and friends. We all had a great night. My friend and I aren't cyclists but our husbands are. They cycled and we shopped in all the little picturesque villages.
The rooms are small but comfortable and are exactly as the photos on the website. They are very clean and the whole place is very well looked after. There's a little kitchen with tea and coffee, a hob and microwave. We had access to the cafe on the night as a lounge area.
The food in the cafe is lovely and the staff friendly and very helpful. We would definitely recommend staying. If you do, have fun.

This is a simply brilliant place to stay. Brenda at the cafe makes the best cake I've ever eaten, the bike shop is excellent and knowledgeable, the accommodation is clean and comfortable (with cake available 24 hours a day on an honesty box basis) and Stu is an incredibly knowledgeable and fun guide. We had two full days' riding and guiding with Stu, and his love and knowledge of the area shone through. Fantastic climbs and thrilling descents, all in the loveliest area in the country.
Delyth Rennie
I'm so fortunate to have this as my local bike shop and cafe! Love this place... Thanks, particularly today, for honest and helpful advice. Always my first port of call for a bike issue (and indeed coffee and cake or a good lunch)
Mark Burns
This is a great facility. Bike shop, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Bike wash available, plus showers for the riders. Great cafe too. Excellent. Everything you could need from a bike centre.
Paul Holmes
Excellent bike centre with superb shop rides in the heart of the dales. Cafe has first class coffee and cake too ! Aw and Ard Rock (based from here) is the most epic thing I have ever done on my bike !
Gary Palmer
Brilliant place to stay
Cafe was great, staff were great
And Stu you made them uphills feel like flats ��
Rob Male
Brilliant little place for an MTB trip. Just spent the weekend there and loved it, especially the descent from Fremington Edge, as recommended by Stu. All of the staff are very helpful and pointed us in the direction of the great routes that are right on the doorstep. Oh, and the cake is amazing! Would definitely recommend!
Stephen Goodchild
Would visit even without a bike! Exquisite cake and coffee and the bacon roll had half a pig on it! 👍A must for any passer by!
Greg Barton
Absolute gem of a place to stop. Awesome cycling on the doorstep, lovely people, friendly and above all: amazing cake.
Christine Bohanan
A great place to go after a long walk ..... cake and hot chocolate mmmm Or lunch with friends ? Good whatever you choose to eat or drink ���
Tim Norris
Just spent the weekend at the Dales Bike Centre as a group of us took over the entire accommodation for 2 nights with Stu guiding us for 2 days either side of the valley.
Great value for money, comfortable, fantastic cake and amazing plum flapjacks; with only a short walk to the pub.
The rides and views were spectacular and highlighted with some big climbs and gnarly rocky trails challenging us all.
Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area in terms of the trails and the history of this rugged industrial scarred landscape.
Can’t wait to return to the area for Ard Rock but will also definitely look to stay at the Dales Bike Centre again.
Cormac Twomey
Great service great coffee and if they have them on can't recommend the plum flapjacks highly enough
