Blindbeck Tea Room in Craven

After driving around the Yorkshire Dale's, we were in need of a drink and snack. We came across this lovely little tearoom and we weren't disappointed, quirky and quaint I would say, very friendly, great value for money too.

A lovely cup of tea, cake and cheese on toast! The lady who served us was absolutely delightful too! Thank you for a lovely experience! We’ll be back!

We called off on our way home from a walking week end camping, found the cafe easy has access car parking and very friendly welcome 🤗 had a couple of lovely mugs of tea outside in the sun with toasted tea cake. I also bought some home grown rhubarb which I’ve just made into a crumble. Perfect stop off fab views and very reasonable. Thank you will definitely call again

What a sweet, quirky little place - like stepping back into the 30s or 40s, but that didn't detract from anything. It just works. The lady (?owner) was very friendly, and service was speedy. The lovely mug of tea and great bacon&egg baps were soo good - just what we needed after our ascent of Whernside. The prices are very reasonable (probably an understatement). We didn't stop for cake, but would happily return to try those. In compensation, we bought some homemade cookies - they didn't last long back at our caravan, with the next cuppa. The reason for the 4 stars is that the room temperature was rather cold - I'd have preferred a more cosy level of heat.

A lovely family run traditional tea rooms Feels like going back in time Excellent value and friendly efficient service

We just stopped on a driving tour after needing a cup of tea, and what a lovely find. So very friendly with inexpensive, good, traditional food and drinks (the scones were lovely) - all with views of Pen-y-Ghent from the tables outside.

Quite simply the friendliest couple ever, the nicer coffee cake, scones and tea. Such a lovely place. Will visit again. Thanks for finding my bag and directing us to the campsite. Julie and Cheryl, Rick and Livs

We called in here after walking Pen y Ghent. We received a really warm welcome and a lovely natter with the owners. We ordered 2 mug of teas and 2 scones with jam and cream. It’s the best we’ve had whilst visiting Yorkshire. Would highly recommend as cakes and drinks reasonably priced and yummy too 😋 👍

hi we went here today sunday,nice relaxing ,enjoyed tea and scones.served by nice lady,1st time out with friend in 4months.very important i felt safe as she cleaned tables and chairs .i was nervous coming out in public place so it reassured me.thank you.3 tables occupyed.not over crowed.

... On a very, very wet day. We had lunch here with our 3 year old and were made to feel very welcome. We had cheese on toast, eggs bacon and beans, some cake each. All home made, all very tasty and incredibly reasonably priced at £14 all in for a lunch for a family of 3! These are strange times and it was our first eating out experience since lockdown. I felt safe and welcome.

My wife and I stopped here and had some excellent sandwiches, tea and cake for lunch. Quaint little place you could drive right past if you were not looking. Very friendly people that run it.

Just outside Horton on the Hawes Road, we pulled in for tea, sandwiches and cakes. A fortunate choice. We sat outside in the sun watching walkers and cyclists doing what we had already done and received prompt service of freshly made sandwiches, followed by home made cake and then took away some home made biscuits (check out the other items on display inside, jam and fudges etc). This is a how tea rooms should be.

Called in last month while doing Yorkshire Three Peaks. Lovely cafe and possibly the best bacon-and-egg butty I have ever eaten! Excellent value for money. Wish I lived closer to visit more often!

Great tea room, quaint and old fashioned, like being at your favourite auntie's house! Lovely couple who run it, lovely home made cakes and jams/biscuits to buy. And right next door to a really cosy self catering cottage run by the couple which I recommend for walkers and families alike. We had a really good stay there with wonderful uninterrupted views of Pen-y-Ghent.

This is an olde worlde tearoom (like walking into my grans house but with lots of extra tables and chairs), with proper homemade (unfrilly) cakes. The prices are amazingly cheap. We paid £1.40 each for a pot of tea and £1.60 each for a fresh scone with butter, jam and whipped cream. We were the only visitors at the time so had a chat with the lady who owns it. We told her that her prices were too cheap lol! And then we bought a bag of homemade fudge and a bag with 6 large homemade fruit Shrewsbury's. Total cost for our visit £8.40. We will return!

Very friendly and welcoming with a lovely breakfast. Spotlessly clean and plenty of parking . Don"t leave without buying some of her homemade Jam - it"s out of this world- the best ever. Will always call here for breakfast when in the area .

On a very cold windy November day we stopped here for a snack while cycling! The food and tea hit the spot and helped warm our cockles once more!! Only place open so it was a real welcomed find!!

We were cold and really hungry after coming down off Pen y Ghent and when we stumbled across this place we decided to stop for a quick snack. The car park (and toilets) are on one side of the road and the tea room on the other. We weren't sure what to expect both because it was a bit like walking into your nan's house, with homey bits everywhere and a little crowded with tables and because the prices were so reasonable -- 8£ total for 3 scones with jam and cream, 2 coffees, and a hot chocolate, Fortunately it turned out to be like walking into your nan's house if your nan is a really good old fashioned baker.The scones were light and fluffy, and came sandwiched with plenty of jam and cream(whipped instead of clotted though).. they were delicious. We didn't try cakes, but for £1.50, on the way out we got a bag of ginger cookies that were lovely, chewy, thick, and full of that ginger flavour. There were other light snacks on the menu -- sandwiches, eggs and toast and similar.. and all really, really decently priced.

Ok its not fancy , nor does it have a wide range of choice but what you get is very nice, cheap and served with friendship. Cup of tea, ham sandwich and a scone with jam and REAL whipped cream ! (if you think its canned your sadly wrong) £4.70 bargain.Only downside was room was a tad cold but then again i did have shorts on in October, a nice fire would make it 5 star.

We stopped to have a tea and scone and turned out to be a lovely scone and tea!! Friendly owner who had time to chat. If you’re driving near by worth droping in for light refreshments

Just like tea rooms used to be: like grandma's sitting room! And the tea and bacon butty was as good as grandma's, not to mention the "kiiller" millionaire's shortbread. We bought home made fudge, biscuits and plum jam. It was great!

Three of us on motorbikes have passed this lovely place many times going to Hawes, not anymore, we will be back, We all had bacon and egg barms and a lovely cup of tea to warm us up as it had been drizzling going through Settle. Menu is as it should be for a lovely quaint place.

peaceful restful cottage with friendly welcoming owners, beautiful scenery to be enjoyed by all ages

My husband John & i stayed in the holiday cottage which is attached to the tea room . It dates back to the 1700's with original beams in two of the bedrooms . This cottage is cosy , comfortable and a totally relaxing place to stay , ideal for those of you who are searching for a bit of peace and quiet but if you are looking for a bit of adventure then why not climb Pen - Y - Ghent which you can clearly see through the dining room and also from one of the three bedrooms . The cottage has a well equipped kitchen if you wish to cook but we also enjoyed a light lunch next door in the tea room , plus they sell homemade jams , biscuits and delicious fudge . John and i also took a ten minute stroll down into the village to The crown pub , they serve fabulous meals , we don't usually eat a three meal course but we did in there because the food was so good . It was a marvellous break and John said , " Lets come again sometime in the summer ." I will look forward to that .

Idyllic spot with views to Pen y Ghent, friendly lady in charge , easy large parking across the road and a convivial atmosphere chatting to fellow diners on the tables outside - just a lovely place for a snack / meal en route to the Three Peaks. Good value for money and quick and efficient service - Can't fault it as an unpretentious, friendly tea room serving good food well

Found this gem on the road between Ribbleshead and Settle.

It is a pity this is so easy to drive past as it is worth stopping to eat and drink here. Some of the cheapest snacks, soup and sandwiches in the area. Good cakes, tasty homemade soup.

Nice wee tea room with a couple of outdoor tables. Reasonably priced with smashing views out the back to Pen Y Gent. Friendly owner with a cottage she rents out behind the tearoom.

Llamado aquí para un aperitivo rápido y ordenados los huevos revueltos sobre una tostada. Cuando llegó, parecía como un plato volador, obviamente hecho en el microondas y solo dejé en el plato, era insípida y las tostadas con margarina propagación había sido barato. La señorita que parecía muy bonito, pero no me llama de nuevo

Weather had closed in and we were feeling peckish. This was a delightful pit stop. Simple home made snacks and all reasonably priced. We had cake and toasted tea cakes. Lovely. Then a friendly chat with the owners. Highly recommended.

Los usuarios que se han quejado de los scones y otros asuntos de la sala de té aquí tal vez estás perdiendo la piint. Este es un té habitación básica y digo esto como un cumplido. Es en la tierra, sin pretensiones, sencillo y honesto. No hay pseudo-cafés de estilo italiano, no de cretona y lujoso, sólo pretenden bien dirigido, agradable, barato y sencillo.

No nos gusta el aspecto de la cafetería en el pueblo y luego vi éste en la carretera al tren del viaducto. Es barato y alegre y un poco de negocio para la casa de vacaciones de los propietarios pero el dueño nos dieron una mesa así que nos podíamos sentar fuera. Teníamos una taza de té y 2 helados por menos de 6 libras y lo que promete a un precio muy barato.

No teníamos intención de ir a este salón, sólo después de haber conducido un poco y queríamos tomar un aperitivo. Amplio aparcamiento frente a la tetería. Pedimos bollos y pasteles para el té. Nos decepcionó que no eran caseras o fresca. Eran un poco seco...

Bollos con crema y pedimos mermelada. Vinieron crema preparada llena de margarina, mermelada y nata UHT. cálidos líquidos A pesar de que probamos de ellos buscando apetecible de todos modos. Seco y desagradable. Pasamos un trago.

We stayed two nights at Blind Beck Cottage, as a base for the Three Peaks in a day challenge (which we completed in 10h 31m, not bad for a first attempt!). We could not have had a better place to stay if we had searched for ever. The location was perfect, the welcome was warm and kind. This is a homely cottage owned by lovely genuine Yorkshire people who are generous enough to welcome visitors into their lives. It is a refreshing change to stay somewhere which reflects the love and care that its owners feel for the place. We recommend it to anyone who needs a warm and cosy base to stay in a beautiful part of the world.

We travelled down from Inverness via Dumfries to stay two nights in this cottage and I was lovely met by a husband and wife team who could not do enough for us brought in hair chair for our young granddaughter three lovely rooms we only used two and two bathrooms we only used one tho .The scenery is beautiful my granddaughter even got to feed the sheep and you can watch the lambs from the Windows The pub is a five minute walk down the road

My brothers and I stayed at this remarkable cottage whilst walking the 3 peaks. We did it over 2 days. The cottage is lovely, kind of old fashioned but in a good way. It has everything you need and was very comfortable. Best of all are Heather and Jim who were incredibly helpful with their local knowledge of the route and Jim even gave us a lift to reclaim our car. (We called him Laughing Jim as he was so happy all the time). The cottage is an 8 min walk to the Crown which was also very good (very good meals and ale). Beautiful cottage amongst beautiful countryside run by lovely, lovely people.

After a long journey and arriving to a really good looking village we were greeted by the owner and husband fantastic people grateful views and very homely well worth the drive

Just stayed at Blind Beck for a girls 3 peaks trip What a find ! Amazing value there's loads of space its quaint charm provides every possible thing you could need and Peny y Ghent in full view Heather and Jim are delightful hosts and nothing is too much trouble and a short walk to the tearoom next door for breakfast couldn't have made it more convenient Whether your walking enjoying the beautiful Countryside or exploring this stunning part of the world: Blind Beck provides a perfect stay We Will be back :)

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage attached to the tea room. It was very comfortable and homely. The owners were friendly and very welcoming. Great value for money. The cottage was very clean. The kitchen and dining room were well equipped. The beds were comfortable. Amazing view over Pen y Ghent from the dining room. 5 mins walk to the Crown Pub in the centre of the village. Would definitely recommend.

This place is great you get up to wonderful views first thing from the dining room windows. Very comfortable stay with every thing u need . If your a walker this place is a dream with easy access to footpaths to pen/y/gent and other wonderful walks . Very often a steam train comes past on the track next to the tea rooms (which u don't hear) . The owner who lives other side of tea room can not do enough to help u have a great stay . In the tea rooms lots of great home made jams biscuits ect . A great place to stop for a cup of tea or a wonderful stay .

This was like entering someone's not-very-cosy front room: mostly bare tabletops (except for the crumbs) and one small electric heater. We ordered a scone with jam & cream, a tea cake, plus tea. The scone came ready filled with jam and aerosol 'cream', and the flaccid-looking tea cake arrived with a scraping of margarine - it was so unappetising that we ate only a quarter of it.Prices are low, but we would very willingly have paid more for decent ingredients. A shame as the tearoom is in the most wonderful part of the world (although don't expect to see much of it through the two small windows, one of which looks out onto the road). Afraid we won't be returning.

We came off Pen-y-ghent after a long day's walk expecting to find the Pen-y-ghent cafe open - to our surprise it was closed at 4pm on a Thursday and so was the pub so we resigned ourselves to a long wait at the station. A fellow-passenger told us about Blindbeck Tea Room which we were unaware of, and we were delighted to discover it was open, friendly and served a good range of delicious snacks as well as the long-hoped-for cup-of-tea!They had no problem with us coming in with our big rucksacks and walking boots. The tea room also now has a toilet for customers. Everything you want when you're waiting for the train - you wouldn't see it when walking through the village but it's just 5 minutes past the station.

A gorgeous, cosy and friendly tea room in sight of Pen-y-Ghent. I've visited many times and always had a genuinely warm welcome. The food is always lovely (and mostly home cooked) and the lady who runs it is an absolute delight. There's ample parking across the road (about ten or fifteen metres from the front door). My first visit here was when I was a little girl and a very, VERY fussy eater, and the lady who runs it was really kind and went out of her way to find something I'd enjoy. I'd definitely recommend the cream teas, and the holiday cottage attached (owned by the same lady, and I think it sleeps four) is stunning, and the dining room there has the best view of Pen-y-Ghent you'll ever see!

Even a dull day in autumn can be brightened up by a visit to a good old English tea rooms - the Blindbeck Cafe is just the job!. Home cooking, great hospitality and realistic prices - life doesn't get much better when you are travelling and need a cuppa! Well worth a stop anytime.

we stopped for a cuppa on our motorbikes with 4 others, fantastic home made soup , home made cakes and biscuits and pots and pots of jams to buy , damson gooseberry and the usual traditional ones . hoping to have a run out again this weekend and will be stoping here again . the kawasaki 4

Charming family-run tearoom, perfect for a snack whilst out in the countryside
