26 Wilson Street Cafe Bar in East Riding of Yorkshire

Loved this cafe. I was visiting the UK and ended up not just having breakfast here but returning for lunch and afternoon tea to. Breakfast was soo good, no greasy stuff left on the plate. Very accommodating when I wanted to swap the black pudding for extra mushrooms on my full breakfast. I’m quite fussy about the sausages I eat and I have to say the ones on my breakfast were just lovely and very tasty. I’ve had the club sandwich. Jacket potato, spinach and mushrooms on sour dough and of course I’ve had cake too. I will most definitely return when I next land in the UK. Oh, the staff were extremely friendly as well. I give credit to all that work there.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, very friendly and welcoming staff! I had the tomato soup with cheese and herb scone which was absolutely delicious! Will definitely return! 😃👍

We gave this a try as heard that they're opening during the evening between Thursday & Saturday. Great cafe / bar feel, the barman is a lovely chap and the atmosphere was very chilled. I just hope that word spreads and people give this a go.

Not from this area and was recommended by a local person. Was so impressed with service, friendliness and quality of the food

I had not realised till I went in that there had been a change of ownership but it was immediately apparent, the place seemed a lot lighter & had a different feel to it. The staff were very friendly and the food was tasty & well presented. The menu had just the right amount of options in my opinion & there is something for everyone. I was with my mum and we both thoroughly enjoyed what we had. I will certainly be back & have already recommended it to friends.

Called in on a whim as it was on route for us and really glad we did. The food was fantastic and all the staff were lovely. Really good value for money. Would really recommend.

My wife, daughter and I visited Wilson street today for an afternoon bite to eat and a coffee. We chose Wilson street because we’ve been several times before and have enjoyed previous visits. However this time we were disappointed, they have changed the menu somewhat, and increased their prices somewhat more. We ordered a couple of toastie sandwiches, which were just 2 slices of bread with a meagre filling, a coronation chicken wrap and 3 coffees, which came to a total of £30.80. The surroundings were pleasant enough although nothing outstanding, the staff were friendly and helpful, however for that price I would certainly have expected more in either quantity, quality or both.

I love this cafe, it's very close to my heart and to my (old home) It's an old favourite that I was delighted to return to when visiting Hull. Not far from, not only where I used to live, but where I grow up too. When coming back to visit, I had the joy of coming back here again, the last time (in May) for Breakfast, were I had the full English and that was amazing! and then this week, this time for lunch and I had a Panini that came with a lovely side salad too. It was fantastic. This is a great place with great food and great service. Really awesome menu with a great choice of food and drink. Very warm and welcoming staff who are very helpful, polite and professional. It's been a pleasure to come back and visit again and I look forward to the next time as well. See you all soon!

We came across this cafe after finding that our intended venue had in fact stopped a seated dining service and it turned out to be a very good thing indeed. We were given a warm welcome and provided with a reserved table but well within our time parameters. Three of our party had the large breakfasts and I had the club sandwich that was very tasty. All of us thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at the cafe and when travelling in these parts agin we will definitely return.

I visited with a friend, our first meet up in 2 years thanks to Covid. As always the soup was hot and tasty. We chose chestnut & chorizo soup with rosemary foccacia roll. It was delicious! Staff were friendly and helpful. We will definitely return.

Good find close to home! Went for the full English. Was nice but the eggs and sausages were slightly over cooked. Was a nice cup of tea though! Service also nice and welcoming.

I needed my morning coffee while waiting for a bus after taking my car the garage. I wasn't expecting to find anywhere, so being able to sit in a comfy armchair, in a clean, friendly cafe, and drink a delicious coffee was a treat. A good way to start the day.

I come here regularly with friends and it never disappoints. Lovely food, staff and atmosphere. Just love it! Here's a pic of the hot chocolate deluxe I had this morning... Gorgeous!!

I visited with a friend for a weekday lunch. We found a table easily. We usually have a light lunch of soup and bread. It is always home-made and flavoursome. There were 3 different choices of soup on this occasion. We chose chestnut and chorizo which sounded a bit different. We were offered a choice of bread or cheese scone to accompany the soup, and we went for the scone. It was delicious soup and the scone was equally tasty and extremely filling. Service was friendly. With a hot drink the bill was about £7.50 each which we thought was good value as usual. We will definitely return!

Visited this morning for my birthday breakfast. I ordered scrambled egg with salmon, my wife ordered porridge. Then ordered a small breakfast to share. The scrambled egg was the best I’ve ever had. Everything cooked to perfection and tasted delicious. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Defiantly worth a visit. I will certainly be going back. Thanks again for the lovely meal.

I had a skinny decaf latte and a sausage and black pudding sandwich in brown,the sausages tasted like home grown pork ones used to be, yummy. The latte was milky but had a great coffee taste not just warm milk, excellent. I'll be back,as the service was friendly and efficient.

Visited with friends for lunch. Friendly service. Great menu but £5 for cheese on toast really! Also food took ages to come and the place was practically empty

I went in and asked what they could do for someone who was gluten intolerant. The woman behind the counter didn't understand what I meant and finally went to ask someone after I'd tried explaining it in words of one syllable. Gave up and went to Fields 2 minutes walk away.

I come in once a week for breakfast with a friend. We absolutely look forward to our Fridays 😊 fabulous food, lovely staff kay and Jack are great! Always know exactly what we both want! 👍 X

I had a mid-week lunch with a friend and also my 4 year old granddaughter. I always enjoy the soup at 26 Wilson Street and there was a choice of 3 on this occasion, I chose the pea & ham soup (delicious though a little salty) with nice brown bread and a pot of tea. I also ordered a children’s cheese on toast (1 slice) and a drink of cordial which came to £9 which I felt was good value. We have been before and will definitely return soon.

I pop in to 26 Wilson Street regularly and the food is always excellent - it's near where my wife works and all the staff look after her like she's family.

Came in on Thursday and even though it was very busy the girls were very attentive and the elderly member of staff was delightful. The food was cooked to perfection and came out to see if we enjoyed our meals which was lovely. Will definitely be back.

Visited numerous times in the past few months. Fantastic place and nothing’s changed. Staff are very friendly and chatty. Food outstanding as always and nothing too much trouble!! I’m a picky eater so changed a few things on my meal and it was no bother, full English is the best around. Staff brought colouring for my little one kept him quiet on one of his grumpy days. Lol. Absolutely love this place!!!

This has to be one of my favourite places to eat locally, lovely warm welcome and great staff.

Came in Wednesday morning, the breakfast we ordered was cooked to perfection, me and my wife both agreed that the coffee was one of the best we’ve ever tasted. I don’t think anyone would find a place where you would be welcomed by such friendly and attentive staff. The young man and lady was very comical and my young son thought they were great. Definitely will be returning, having recently moved into the area.

We booked a table for 3 in advance. We ordered 2 soups with bread (1 carrot and basil & 1 chicken and mushroom) and 1 beans on toast from the children’s menu. We also had tea for 2 and a glass of squash. Both soups were hot and tasty, the bread also delicious. The beans on toast was as expected. Service was good and the total bill about £14. This is a pleasant cafe which always seems busy which speaks for itself. We will definitely return.

Was wanting a nice breakfast so we decided to visit here. I had the eggs Benedict and my friend had the full English and I was truly shocked how amazing it was. Tasty food and reasonable prices!! Great customer service too, will definitely be revisiting.

Having never been to this cafe or heard anyone talk about it I thought it would be nice to show somebody support of a little al business. Been a vegan I wasn’t sure if they would have had much of a selection for me but having looked at the menu it was clear they catered for everyone. I ordered the breakfast stack minus the eggs to take away. This consisted of tomatoes, mushrooms and spinach, which I was more than happy with. Whilst waiting only a short time, I heard a microwave ping and moments later my food was ready and I was warned by the lady it would be very hot! I left the shop and 5 minutes later I was tucking into my food. This is where it gets disappointing. The bread had gone to utter mush so I had to put it in a plate and cut around the sludge. The mushrooms had a very odd texture which must be from microwave cooking, the spinach was ok but it was the tomatoes that gave the whole thing any flavour. None of the ingredients had been seasoned what so ever. From cooking from fresh all the time at home I know it takes only 5 minutes to fry off some mushrooms in garlic, tomatoes in some rosemary, spinach in some basic salt and pepper, done! Coplands tomato and mushroom sandwich has much more flavour for a fraction of the price.

Myself and my friend wanted breakfast and we stumbled across this small cafe. I ordered the eggs Benedict and my friend got the full English, both absolutely BEAUTIFUL and very generous servings. Will definitely be back again!

We have used this cafe frequently for a long time. Jo has created a great eatery. Breakfasts are substantial and there is a an ample variety of other treats. The team are very friendly and make this a fun place to eat. Hence it is popular. Do give it a try.

Have been here a few times within the past three months, most of which I enjoyed. I came here for lunch last week with my mum and had scrambled egg and bacon on toast, which was nice so I had the same again today but was left feeling disappointed. The egg was dry and the bacon was very fatty. Not one member of staff asked us how we found the food, not even on paying... They could also be a little more customer-friendly. Unfortunately, I'm a little hesitant to return.

I met a friend for lunch here with a 3 year old in tow. We ordered 2 very tasty home-made vegetable soups with nice brown bread rolls, and a children’s beans on toast. The soup and bread were excellent and I would definitely recommend. With 2 pots of tea and 2 glasses of cordial the total bill came to about £14. Staff are pleasant and friendly.

Nice food and good vegetarian option. Good atmosphere and nice place to sit and chill. Would recommend.

This is my favourite place for breakfast. Food outstanding and staff are great. Nothing is too much trouble.

I met my daughter here one Friday lunchtime just before Christmas. The Cafe did not seem very busy but lots of tables had reserved notices on them so there was not a lot of choice of seating. There was only one place to sit right by the door so it was a bit draughty. We ordered a beef and Yorkshire pudding wrap and a scone with clotted cream (I had already been out for breakfast that morning) and a cup of coffee and tea.

Went for a Pre Christmas breakfast with family and from the service to the food it was fantastic, my partner had the mint got chocolate and vegetarian breakfast and I had a coffee and full English... great food and drinks and great value for money

26 wilson street is a great privately owned cafe. It delivers on both service and quality of food. Menu offers a variety of dishes to take you from breakfast, snacking and a more substantial lunch.

It's been a while since I visited this coffe shop. Wow really great service and quality of food. Coffee nice too. I'll be back again and again for sure.

Erst ein freundlicher Empfang, dann ein gutes Frühstück in gemütlichen Sesseln. Das kleine, urige Café bietet verschiedene Frühstücksvarianten und hat auch zum Lunch eine schöne Auswahl an Gerichten. Auch empfehlenswert, da es sehr persönlich ist.

Lovely bite to eat, nice surrounding and nit too crowded. Easy parking around and about, goid choice and prices.

I’d like to thank all the staff at 26 Wilson St Café Bar for being so amazing! They very kindly supported me when I held my Brave the Shave event at the café on 27th August. The service and buffet were excellent as always and they made everyone feel welcome. I’m grateful for all their help and support in making the night go so brilliantly. Thank you Team 26!!

I met friends here for a weekday lunch. The young waitress was really helpful bringing a booster seat and fastening it securely to the chair for my 2 year old. Service was fairly efficient although I didn’t find the sandwich menu very exciting.

The cafe bar is small but the food is always of a good quality. We have only ever eaten there at lunch so cannot say what the evenings are like. Would we go again? Yes.

We've been twice in the last week. The full English is fabulous, I'd prefer fresh mushrooms to tinned but that's the only minor issue, super sausages and a real plate full for £5.99. Lovely lunch too special pannini with camembert was gooey and lovely, good homemade coleslaw too.

Lovely to find an independent cafe to have lunch. Ordered the posh fish coujons in a wrap unfortunately I was given chicken coujons. The waitress did offer to change them but my partner was already eating his eggs benedict so I declined. The food was nicely presented and the waiting staff very pleasant. Plenty of hot water to top up the teapot. Lovely area in the cafe with comfy settees which proved popular. I will certainly be back for mid morning coffee.

I visited with my family on a Thursday morning and food, drink and staff were excellent even the chef came out to see if everything was ok....... visiting this place is a must

Good breakfast good Quality food Home cooked nice staff. It's like a Italian Cafe Good coffee Will deafly come back

Have attended here several times now. Always received very good service and have been unable to fault the food. Highly recommended.

Really enjoyed my visit this morning, spot on breakfast, pleasant and welcoming staff. Will visit again. Paul

Visited 26 Wilson street this tuesday and I must say I was appalled with the service. I ordered scrambled egg on toast and my husband ordered a sausage sandwich, seemed to be a fairly simple order but we didn't get seen to for about 10 minutes, then our food took about 20 minutes to make up, the women in charge seemed very rude. When the food came out it wasn't anything special, felt like the ingredients were cheap. Won't be visiting this coffee shop again!!

I met friends for lunch here at the last minute when we found the venue we had been going to visit is now closed on a Wednesday!

Popped in first thing this morning and finally had time to have the full English breakfast, very tasty high quality produce (no cheap mass produced sausages here) beautifully presented.

Had a very nice breakfast here, probably the best in the area, which was well priced and had a nice atmosphere.

Lovely cakes and great variety of drinks. Warm friendly cosy atmosphere and parking outside the door !

Pleasant surroundings and pleasant staff, make this a great little coffee spot for business and leisure; but I love the all day breakfast, it's one of the best I've ever had!

Lovely cosy restaurant with friendly staff and a great menu. Licensed as well and can be fully booked out for special occasions. Food is always good and great choice of special coffees! Highly recommended.

A privately owned cafe is much better than anything one of the big chains can deliver. Far more imaginative menu and food freshly prepared on premises amd not sat on cardboard and shrink wrapped for hours and possibly miles travelling . 26 wilson street is a near perfect example of a private cafe and what it can deliver. Saw the place when going over to visit a friend and decided would have to go back and give it a try! We were not disappointed. Warm welcome and great service. Food was fresh and deliscious . also well presented. Great menu for breakfast and then anything else throughout the day! All reasonably priced for quality Ingredients . Well worth visiting.

Really nice. Great food, friendly, helpful staff and a proper cup of Yorkshire tea makes this a place I will keep going back to.

I go here regularly as I live locally. Never disappointed- great coffee. The food is always delicious & freshly made no matter what I've ordered. Nice atmosphere & friendly staff

My son has been here a number of times and highly recommended Wilsons, so I was delighted when he invited me for my birthday breakfast. He pre-ordered my hot chocolate so it was there when I arrived - it was fabulous: absolutely unbelievable!

At a loose end and looking for a decent coffee and fearing the only choice would be Costa or the soulless experience of a Starbucks, I was - well delighted is too small a word to really bring home the excellent experience - but delighted nevertheless, to discover 26 Wilson Street.

Attended my Son's engagement party here so it was a private function with around 50 guests on an evening, the staff were very friendly and only too happy to help. The venue itself is small but has a nice cozy feel to it and I would not hesitate going here again.

Having been here for coffee some time ago, I decided to visit for something to eat with a friend. We both ordered sandwiches off the menu, which had a vast range of options including toasties and breakfast options. Our sandwiches were both lovely and came well presented. We both however commented that the ham (which was hand-carved style) was a bit fatty and we would have preferred leaner, sliced meat. This is however by no means a criticism and we both enjoyed our meals. The only thing I can say is the cup sizes are a bit small for me, I like a large coffee! We will without a doubt return to sample more of their extensive menu.

Very friendly staff and food and drink is lovely. The cafe is cosy and warm and great for meeting friends.

I called in with some friends for lunch. We had intended going to another venue but found it closed for re-decoration so ended up at 26 Wilson Street by default!

Went in again today for breakfast, it was excellent,the food is always of the finest quality and the service exceptional. would recommend to anyone

What a shame. We've enjoyed coming here for years but today the quality of the food (cheap ingedients) was poor and the service lacking. Our plates were left uncleared and the waitress had no idea what we'd ordered, so we were lleft waiting to pay.

The food was really really slow. We ordered chicken and chorizo salad with an egg. We had to send it back as the egg was hard. The salad must have only taken 2 mins to make as it was some salad mix, pre packed sliced chorizo and sliced chicken. No excuse for how long it took. It would score lower but the staff were very nice and we got one meal for free due to the wait. It's also a nice setting. Shame tho as I will not rush back.

Popped in for a coffee and decided to have a breakfast ,good decision! it was excellent as always recommend 26 Wilson st to anyone.

We stopped off for a coffee and ended up ordering two breakfast, everything was excellent, I ordered bubble & squeak which was out of this world!

Whilst attending hospital day surgery, my wonderful wife and son had an awesome lunch here. They came back with nothing but glowing reports. My son particularly enjoyed his all day breakfast. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the hand carved ham and eggs.

We had Sunday breakfast and it was absolutely amazing! Proper full English, beautifully cooked what an amazing find! We will definitely be back!

I have been coming to.Wilson Street Cafe for a while now and have never been disappointed. The staff could not be nicer and genuinely make an effort to get to know their customers. It is also great for parties, I had my baby shower here and it was the perfect venue.

I absolutely love this place! It is without a doubt my favourite place to eat in hull by far! Not only is the food lovely, the service is great and the menu is quirky. But for me the thing that makes this place for me is the manager. She is lovey and attentive and I never leave the place without a big smile and full belly!

I visit here occasionally for breakfast as I live in the area. The veggie breakfast is beautiful and my partner loves the meaty breakfast. The food is fresh and beautiful and service is always with a smile. Cakes are lovely too. Nice independent restaurant give it a try.

Very relaxing atmosphere with great home cooked food. Friendly staff that are very attentive to your needs and nothing is too much trouble.

Visited with a friend over lunch time. Both ordered a toasted wrap. Mine came correct and my friends came a a toasted panini. Both very nice all the same. Shame the order was incorrect. Would visit again if in the area.

I met a friend for mid-week lunch. We had a baby in tow so booked a table and high chair, although it was not a high chair but a booster seat. It was a bit low for baby to eat her lunch herself though as her chin was just level with the table top!

Had a great time last night at this event the food was great. A lovely atmosphere thanks to Kay and Becky for making it a great event with all your hard work. Looking forward to the next event 🍷🍷🍴🍴

Nothing much has changed at Wilson street cafe, it's still brilliant! The staff are very friendly and are always happy to make alterations to the menu if you fancy something a bit different, the quality of the food is very consistant, I can't fault it...

Excellent as always. Ladies looked after us very well, food excellent, service great, very welcoming. Used a couple of times now for gatherings and would definitely recommend and use again. Lovely food and drink to pop in anytime.

Threw a baby shower here for my friends 9th Jan - it was an absolute hit! The two ladies running the bar were brilliant and absolutely lovely, we were told we could decorate the place however we wanted which was fabulous. It was a great night overall and the food was excellent as always. I've done two parties here now and would do another, as well as going for a cheeky toasted HLT for dinner every now and then. 5*!

Why where the sandwiches smothered in mustard and holandaise sauce!!! Ran out of rose' wine after one drink at 7.15 pm..... /:

Met up with friends here for a coffee and toasted tea cake (one of the best I've tasted and comes with butter and jam). Free parking nearby is a bonus and the very friendly staff are happy to take you're order and deliver to the table. A big bonus is a free refill offer if you're an early bird. Recommended.

We had our engagement party at the cafe bar on Saturday.... great venue, great staff and great atmosphere, thank you once again, had a lovely evening. Highly reccommended

Often pop in for lunch and a coffee, a good menu and surroundings. Very tasty and reasonably priced.

I met a friend for tea/coffee one afternoon. It was very busy when we arrived, only one free table apart from one that was reserved. It was cleaned as we sat down. Service was speedy. We couldn't take our coats off however as the door was wide open and it was freezing!!

My wife and I had a very relaxing and pleasant lunch. great surroundings, very tasty and well presented food and excellent, friendly staff

My elderly father and I came here for a quick midweek lunch. It was nice food, but how does it take 1 hour to microwave a jacket potato and grill a bit a bacon? No apologies given and it was not busy. Only go here if you have plenty of time to sit around waiting.

A great place to enjoy a weekly coffee and catch up with friends. Good coffee and great service 👍🏻

Love this place for lunch and coffee. Great food and coffee is delicious. Staff welcoming and friendly x

What a find! This little cafe bar serves the best lunchtime food I have had in a long time. The menu is unbelievably extensive and so imaginative - speak to the chef and you will be impressed by his passion for food. A group of 4 of us had salads, sandwiches, burgers and sides of wedges and the most delicious "planks" which were rounds of roasted and seasoned potatoes. We shall be watching out for the "posh nosh" evenings which sound amazing.

We always try something different from the menu. Generous sized portions. Staff are always helpful and friendly. Quality and value.

I haven't been here since it's changed names but I think it's still really nice. Very relaxing atmosphere and very family friendly. Really friendly and welcoming member of staff behind the bar even though she was really busy.

Been here a few times recently, the place has a good ambience and nice layout. A late breakfast was very good, coffee and cake stop another day when the cake was rather dry and a late lunch on Saturday, where although not busy the tables weren't cleared. Our two menu's had different specials pages and the description of the Lamb Kofta burger was different again on the board, this came still quite red in the middle, could have gone back but don't mind lamb a bit underdone, whereas the New York burger was to the point of being overcooked.

Come here a lot, food is amazing, service is always good even when they are busy. Relaxed feel, don't feel rushed and can take your time.

I have eaten here and the food is amazing, as is the service and hospitality. Yesterday I ordered a buffet for a meeting for 12 people which was absolutely amazing. We ordered the Italian cooked meat, flatbreads and pasta salad option. We also ordered the cheese board. Every single person agreed that the food was exceptional...and it was! We regularly hold buffets and we shall be ordering again from them. One of the most important aspects was the fact that Jo called us before to confirm and delivered it exactly at the time specified. There was too much food for 12 so we shared it with other staff.

Amazing food, fabulous service and brilliant atmosphere. Just become our new favourite place to chill out with sandwich, a drink and read the paper! Mouth watering cakes. Staff are friendly and welcoming.

Whole evening ran superbly. Staff very pleasant, very helpful and efficient. Food (traditional food buffet chosen) was presented perfectly. Ample amount of food with lots of various fillings for sandwiches, vol-aux-vents etc. Gateaux's beautiful, moist and fresh.

Nice surprise that free refills this morning. Lovely coffee and service with a smile too. Highly recommend.
