Cooplands Secret Garden Cafe in East Riding of Yorkshire

Bought a corned beef & steak bake pasty & 2 sausage rolls. What a horrid dinner, could not tell the pasties apart, could have been a average dog food inside as a filling. Not sure our dog were interested, normally he's all eyes when we're having a takeaway, not this time? Greggs & poundbakery are 100s times nicer, at least you can tell what the filling is. Never again!!

Visited with my wife. We experienced a slow service. The all day breakfast somewhat on the small side. Cutlery was not particularly clean. We won't revisit.

Completely pointless. Waited an hour for food that was even on their list of orders. All the staff looked confused and the only saving grace was a refund. Terrible.

Our visit can only be described as chaotic. As nobody was clearing tables about half were out of use because they were stacked up with dirty pots from other tables. They were busy, but customers were turning away as no cleaned tables were available. Having cleared a table for ourselves, we ordered two mushroom omlettes (with salad and coleslaw) and two pots of tea. No coleslaw arrived on the plate. No tea arrived either. The tea was paid for when ordered, a staff member was reminded when the omelettes were served, but no tea arrived. When queried at the till, I was not offered any tea but told I could have my money back if I wasn't happy. So I took my money back and went to M&S for a cup of tea. This could be a thriving cafe, but the organisation is non-existent and staffing is obviously cut to the bone. Needless to say we won't be returning. PS - the omlettes were not good either.

Visited a couple of times recently. Easy place to visit, but not the most inspiring food. Could do with a menu re vamp I think! My partner had the all day breakfast which was quite sad looking all spaced out on a very large plate. I had the tuna melt which was nice but not an overly big portion.

I visited today with my young son and husband. I am lactose Intolerant so asked if several items on the menu had dairy in and none of the staff could clearly state what was in the food, despite a note on menu advising to ask staff for allergen info. I ended up not eating as I didn't want to risk it. I would avoid if you have any allergies or intolerances. Also the menu was limited due to them not having half of the stated food in.

My son and I visited for lunch. I fancied the soup but it was unavailable so I opted for the Christmas sandwich as there was a picture advertising it and it made it look delicious. Unfortunately when it arrived it was nothing like the picture. It was very dry and just contained cold cheap turkey roll and cold stuffing. At almost £5 I felt ripped off. My son had a cooked breakfast which was average, nothing special. The prices are too high for the quality of food served.

I would go constantly and I mean it as I love this place and have been 4 times and I will be here again

We visited the secret garden in Beverley recently at 13:00 hoping to have a cooked breakfast each. We were told the breakfasts were unavailable as were the cheese and ham melts due to till issues and lack of ingredients. We were told that we could order a bacon or sausage sandwich with all the trimmings including mushrooms, tomatoes etc A gentleman after us ordered beans on toast so I can’t understand why a cooked breakfast could not be prepared. Very odd. The cheese and ham melt was also unavailable but I ordered a pepperoni cheese toasty! Again weird. On leaving we noticed the chairs were fashioned to keep the larger side of the restaurant closed from customers arriving and we had to cross paths with new customers ordering at the counter. This was at 13:30! Some odd behaviour for a cosy little establishment we often look forward to using. We got the feeling the staff couldn’t be bothered making cooked breakfasts due to the time and the seating segregation added to this feeling. It’s a shame we encountered this behaviour and we can honestly say that unfortunately we will not be attending this place again and will take our money somewhere else that can accommodate a daily breakfast and who doesn’t look like they’re closing an hour n a half early! Note to managers: keep an eye on this behaviour as I’m sure it is losing you your monthly targets!!

Came here on 09/09/22 Friday afternoon myself and my wife for a sandwiche and a coffee NEVER AGAIN the sandwiches was 4mini triangles with hardly any filling and the coffee was 2 half mugs topped up with half a cup of froth at over £13.00 I would have expected better we cannot recommend or return whilst the portions are miniscule.

Ham Salad, served with proper ham, served with lettuce, half a cheery tomato and a sliver of red onion - taste good Fresh Cream Doughnut - Doughnut not fluffy enough and lacked flavour Pot of tea, with pot of water - could not fault Total cost £8.45 - not really worth that - deals are sometimes available Order at counter on arrival - not at table - hot orders are delivered to tables.

I visited the secret garden for something to eat and the food is good staff are friendly and there are plenty of places to sit

Went today ham omelette - tiny rubbery omelette with 3 dried up bits of cooked ham plonked inside- no care at all - all microwaved Im sure. If it was £1 you'd think you'd been robbed but for almost £5!! steer clear, as for the salad, thrown from a great height-!!- lady on the till at the time was very friendly though . so that's a plus point

My friend and I ordered a Prawn Omelette each but when they arrived we were really disappointed with them. They were so tiny and rubbery, with only a few prawns and a side salad. I made a remark about the size to the waitress but she wasn't interested. Unfortunately, at Secret Garden, people have to pay for their food when ordering. If it had been a matter of eating before paying, then we would have refused to accept them. Anyway, we ate them, and then still feeling hungry, we went elsewhere for something else to eat.

We called in at 4-15pm on the basis that the advertised closing time was 4-45, only to be told that they were "just closing". Won't be back, there being plenty of other cafes locally with a better service ethic.

I really enjoyed my visit to the Cooplands secret garden cafe. The atmosphere was welcoming and sweet. Cheap and cheerful! Food was top notch, could have mistaken it for Michelin star. I recently visited Pipe and Glass but I believe Cooplands is much better value and more enjoyable. The menu is in divvy language and there are no posh Waitrose snobs, just proper true Northeners. Wonderful. Xx

I really enjoyed my visit to the Cooplands secret garden cafe. The atmosphere was welcoming and sweet. Cheap and cheerful! Food was top notch, could have mistaken it for Michelin star. I recently visited pipe and glass but I believe Cooplands is much better value and more enjoyable. No complex, fancy menu, no need to revise the upper class social etiquette on how to behave at a table and most of all no posh Waitrose snobs, just proper true Northerners!!! Wonderful.Xx

The Secret Garden in Brid was a favourite when the kids were little, so it was nice to discover this place. You do get a different perspective on them when you're not juggling sandwiches, buns and stuff. Mostly frequented by older visitors. Decor is an imagining of an Italian garden with statues, pergola and shutters at the windows. Easy going, no frills, food was basic and inexpensive.

We have visited this restaurant several times as well as the one in Cottingham. On all occasions the staff have been very helpful and pleasnt and look aftre you very well. The only disapointment is that you cannot buy the Tea loaf that they toast in the Cooplands shops.

Beetje goedkoper ogend restaurantje. Prima thee, scones e.d. Wat slappe cappucino. Het was er rustig voor een zaterdagmiddag.

v good prices and choice of snacks/drinks children had milkshakes and we had hot chocolate/tea and we had snacks which were nice and not expensive friendly service and nice environment whats not to like?

Amazing reading some of the reviews complaining about slow service, and as for a 45min wait I find it hard to believe.

I have read others peoples review expressing disappointment. That was not my experience this morning. I was greeted by a cheery lady at the counter and she and her colleagues reminded me of Victoria Woods Dinner ladies with their humorous banter. The food was served quickly, was tasty and with free tea before 11am I good change from a fiver. I personally really enjoyed my visit.

Very disappointed, wasnt told they didn't have any sausages left for a sandwich, so ordered a sausage roll,which eventually found our table( took 2 different girls to walk round the whole restaurant before it arrived!! Hubby ordered a toastie and tea cake 45 minutes later still waiting absolutely appalling service. Definitely won't be returning .There are far better eateries in Beverley..

Unfortunately this was a bland and tasteless visit, a quick lunch of cheese and onion quiche with salad. Not expensive, but still not worthy of calling again.

Was in around 1pm today ordered 2 coffees and 2 sandwiches very disappointing in the sandwiches, very little fillings on brown not very fresh bread. And sandwiches were £4 each sorry last time we visit.

As regular customers at this central restaurant, yesterday was a distinct disappointment from start to finish. the lady serving us was too busy complaining loudly to her friend about the growing queue to focus on her job. When she finally deigned to take my order, she raised her voice as if I appeared to be deaf - it was the other way round I'm afraid. She managed to get our order completely wrong and although the person who brought it to our table offered to change it, we didn't have time. might be rethinking my patronage as there are many other good eating places in the town?

Has large cafeteria area, upstairs with ready made food or order from Menu at Counter. Food fresh and very good quality. Ideal eatery, free parking "Tesco" couple of blocks away. Be such to do some shopping at Tesco, for this Convenience

Called in today with my 2 daughters daughter ordered sausage sandwich in white,came in brown then to be told no white bread ,she doesnt like brown quiche salad terrible and no lock on ladies toilets...wont rush back

A nice cafe with the usual top quality Cooplands fare. Affordable food in nice clean surroundings and friendly staff.

We visited for a quick spot of lunch whilst shopping in Beverley. The service is very quick, the food is good quality and VERY good value! The decor is dated but very clean and the place has a friendly feel to it. We will go again.

Called in on way back to coach park at 4 pm. Still plenty of food available. Cakes sandwiches ect. Service was excellent. Staff clearing tables as soon as people left. Would certainly go again. Possibly even for lunch.

Very busy on arrival so could forgive dirty table and pots on it. Cleared them ourselves. Food arrived and table still was not wiped so still had sugar and coffee all over it as we ate. Tiniest fun-sized omelettes I have ever seen! They were overcooked - very dry and rubbery. Takeaway paper cup placed upside down over a can of coke not what you expect in a cafe, also no cruet on the table, not offered any sauces, have to get your own knife and fork but this is not mentioned at the till. Talking of which, the girl on the till had no joy in her whatsoever. On the plus side you get a little jug of hot water with your pot of tea without having to ask! Too many other, more pleasant, places to have lunch in the town. This is more a canteen than a cafe.

Loads of steps to get up, painter had to carry the wheelchair up. When there found a table and partner ordered food news drinks. Came within 10mins. Nice food, tried different desserts but haven't liked anything. Breakfast meal the best.

I wanted to have lunch in Beverley (hubby works there) so i decided we should visit Secret Garden Cafe. I wanted a Prawn Salad of which i had ordered before. It did not dissapoint, you get a generous serving of Prawns ample salad, rice, coleslaw, marie rose dressing. Hubby got the Ploughmans which also looked & tasted good. I got a coffee with a bun. The staff were friendly & polite. I didn't find anything to grumble about. The place is clean, the food is tasty. Will be returning

This was upstairs above shops and didnt know what to expect, but very pleasantly surprised. It seemed popular - quite busy; it had sold out of the food I wanted but still found something. Prices were very reasonable.

As with all the Cooplands cafes the place is clean and pleasant. The food is good value. If you want simple, affordable, hassle free eating, then Cooplands will do you just fine

Cold dried up food ,staff not particularly friendly. Perhaps on both our visits we caught them at the wrong time its such a shame as other Copland's restaurant's are very good.

Found the cafe cosy clean nothing to much trouble helpful staff food was good lots too choose from .

We arrived at about half 11 and were pleased that we did; we picked a table and went to the counter to order, and while we waited for the food to arrive the queue was nearly out the door!

Food in cooplands is always amazing, however the prices are so much higher for the cafe than the bakery. This is understandable, but might be too much. I'll definitely go again though, as it is always really enjoyable food.

The main problem with this café is that it has no disabled access so a rather formidable set of stairs to manage. However once you get into the café you will have a very pleasant surprise. A spacious room overlooking Toll Gavel so you can people watch if you get a window table. My friend and I chose one of their "offers"....tea or coffee and a cake for £2.35 I believe. Well worth the money. And although we were the last customers there was no indication we were in the way at closing time. Worth a visit as long as you can manage stairs.

Value for money with a good selection of hot and cold meals. Visited on a few occasions and have always...

Took my granddaughter here for lunch. Was quite impressed with how big it was and very clean. They have some...

A few days ago , I was in Beverley sightseeing , and at some point I decided that I needed to have some lunch . After looking at several cafes and pubs , I eventually decided to give Coupland's Secret Garden cafe a try . I certainly wasn't disappointed !The cafe is situated in the town centre , upstairs above the baker's shop . The cafe was spacious and spotlessly clean . The decor was bright and cheerful , with nice lighting .A good range of snacks and meals were available , at very reasonable prices . I particularly liked the selection of cakes and pastries on offer . My meal consisted of a ham sandwich with garnish , Danish pastry and a mug of coffee . This cost just under £ 6. Unbelievable value . At certain times of the day there are special offers .For example ; Cream cake + cup of tea or coffee for £ 2 - 20 . Sandwich + cup of tea or coffee for £ 3 - 95 .With such value for money , it wasn't surprising that the cafe was busy .The service was quick and the staff were very polite and friendly . Next time that I am in Beverley , I will definitely visit this cafe again . Coupland's seem to have Secret Garden cafes in other towns in East Yorkshire .On my travels , I spotted one in Pickering and another in Scarborough .

You have to collect your tray and order at the till.You receive your drink there and your order is the delivered to your table. The coffee wasn't particularly hot so had drank mine before order arrived even though my full English breakfast was delivered quite quickly.Was asked if I wanted beans or tomato or both and asked if I wanted mushrooms. Thought they may have been included in the full breakfast price but from the amount paid must have been add ons. The bacon was nice and the sausage. The fried egg was hard as seems to happen everywhere, had expected a cooked tomato but they were tinned ones which made the whole plate very wet! The place itself was very clean and bright and a good view onto the street.

Would give this cafe a GOOD if i could as its worth more than average .full English ordered and arrived almost before i had taken my seat .good bacon,well cooked egg .just the sausage and beans were Luke warm which told me they pre=cook a lot of the stuff .good brown toast and a great cuppa so all almost good

Called in with 2 friends do as our first stop off on a day trip to Beverley. I have been to the Scarborough branch before a few times and always had nice food. We weren't disappointed my friend Maria a day I had toasted current loaf with jam and butter and Bet had a toasted bacon sandwich with plenty of salad. Two of us had tea with extra water a day I also had a fruit tart. My bill was just under £6 which I think is very reasonable. Plenty of room and although self service the staff are very quick to serve, efficient and friendly. A lot of steps to go up to the cafe if not very good walking. Bought some lovely plum bread from Cope lands bakery downstairs (completely separate entity).

Always come here every month for a full english breakfast and tea before going to my hairdressers. The staff are all very friendly the place is laid out nice also very clean and tidy so are the toilets. You never have to wait too long for your food. The breakfast is a nice size comes with toast too. Its not at all greasy and always served hot too . All round lovely. Cakes are also very good too.

Was awful weather so came for a coffee and tea cake! Lovely service, lovely seating areas and the tea cakes were yummy!! Will most definitely be back!

Good food at a good price and excellent choice of food as well on the menu. Something for everyone. I always call here when I am in the area and have not been disappointed once. Shall be back again. Would recommend.

I have previously written a review about the Secret Garden Cooplands which I described as honest and reasonable food.It is quite popular and the staff friendly but I have to say the standards and service has dropped off. Sometimes it the wait to be served can be painfully slow and I have given up when waiting in the queue and left. The problem is there is normally just one staff on the till and another dealing with endless pots of tea whilst having to deal with food orders.I ordered a beef chili yesterday Thursday 9th, because I had eaten the same dish in the Cottingham café and it was delicious. This experience could not have been more different I could not find any mince in the dish and the whole thing was just nothing more than a chili paste with some rice. I had to leave the whole meal and go and eat somewhere else. If I do go back to the Beverley café again I will stick to the sandwiches.

I like this place, it has simple fair and I do prefer a little imagination however the package felt right....well priced, good portions and friendly staff. Well done..

Situated on Beverley's pedestrianised Toll Gavel, on the second floor with the entrance between Thomas the Baker and WH Smith. Had a lovely soup and sandwich here with my daughter, Great quality, fast efficient service and a lovely view over the shopping street where you can watch the crowds go by. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic place. Down to earth. Good value for money. Clean tidy. Good food. Clean toilets. Buzzing with activity. . We'll definitely be using this café when visiting Beverly .

We decided to call in for a drink and a snack whilst visiting the Christmas Market, we found a table upon arrival, but the wait to be served was very slow (over 30 minutes). We had 2 coffees, 1 hot chocolate and 3 cakes. It was very nice and the cakes were moist.

Visited on a Saturday morning. Arrived at 10.55 and had to queue up for 15 minutes as the staff were very slow to serve the staff. Were then refused the pre-11am deal for coffee and tea-bread which seemed a little unfair. Drinks OK and reasonably priced.

A good varied menu from hot main meals to simpler snacks and things like jacket potatoes. The jacket potatoes are usually of a good size and well filled with fillings of your choice, with a side salad provided. Teas and coffees and other drinks available. Very reasonable prices too. Can get very busy at peak meal times but the staff are friendly and very helpful at all times. Good clean place for either a snack or meal or just a tea or coffee.

Almost missed the doorway! Glad we didn't! We wanted lunch in a nice environment away from the crowds and we weren't disappointed. After quite a climb up the stairs we opened a door and found ourselves in a beautiful bright location with a nice atmosphere. Well laid out and plenty of room at the table. Self service but our hot meal was brought to us. Corned beef hash in a huge Yorkshire pudding for my husband and a large jacket potato with a choice of filling and a good salad and coleslaw for myself. With a cold drink there was change from £10! The ladies running this cafe were happy and delightful and we couldn't fault it. Sadly we had to pass on the sweets as we were quite full but they did look tempting! An extremely good place to visit, the only downside would be the stairs which could make it difficult for less able people.We will go again.

Great old fashioned values with great honest value for money and old fashioned good manners. If you're looking for overpriced and style over substance you're in the wrong place. Recommend as an oasis of calm in a hectic world.

First ever visit to the secret garden and am impressed by the value £3.95 for a large breakfast and with that you get a cup of tea or coffee too... Will be going back

We visited here as it was the nearest cafe to get out of the rain! Wish I hadn't bothered!Coffee was tasteless and the sausage roll I bought in the cafe had no taste either.What a waste of money.

Called today and it's very cheap price wise but it isn't the best quality food either. Basically you get what you pay for. Only went in to get out of the rain. They need to ditch the fake statues and drop the whole garden thing in my opinion.

well ive eaten here and hers another honest reviewif you remember the school canteen and found you really liked it you will love this place if you hated it you will hate this placegood points .. if your a local and short of cash this is a wonderful placebad points .. food no thrills if you have a palate and have not burnt away your tastebuds with alcohol you will hate this placepriced right for what they serve i personally wont eat there again and i tried it on 2 seperate occasions to make sureits like being on an assembly line getting food i would compare it more closely to a motorway services like littlechef it has a lot in common and you could believe it was copyed of the business model my personal advice eat elsewhere unless you are on a budget

We called in for lunch whilst shopping in Beverley. The place was packed, which is usually a good sign.We ordered some hot food and cakes for dessert. The corned beef hash in s Yorkshire pudding was lovely, as was the toasted tea bread. The cakes are kept in a refrigerated cabinet so are a bit cold. My husband got a slice of chocolate cake which was stored under a glass dome on the counter. Unfortunately there was mould on the underside. We notified one of the waitresses who took it away, apologised, replaced with s fresh cake and removed the rest of the cake from the counter.A bit disappointing, as we visited after rave reviews from my parents.

Called in here for soup and a sandwich at lunchtime. The sandwich bread was not as fresh as I expected but the mushroom soup was tasty. However, the soup while fresh was not served at the counter and I had to wait almost 15 minutes for one bowl of soup to arrive. It took so long by the time it did arrive I had finished my sandwich and the tea was cold. The decor is pleasant and bright but the service is so slow.

Lovely surroundings, lovely food and very very busy. Ideal place to meet friends for a coffee and a light bite on a Saturday

My daughter and I popped in here for lunch and had a pleasant visit. It is light, airy and clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. The food was tasty, arrived quickly and was great value for money.

I have been a few times now to the Secret Garden café chain and all of them are so clean serving very good food with quick service and very polite staff. this is not the cheapest of cafes I have been in but I must say it is one of the nicest the cakes are a little expensive but most of the other meals are a fair price.

Nice omelette for a quick lunch. Cakes looked good but couldn't fit anything in. Seemed pretty busy so obviously populate with locals

Good simple but delicious food. A good choice in a nice, clean and friendly environment. I often take my children for a cake and a drink

This is not a high end venue but is light and spacious and incredibly good value for money for a light bite and coffee break from shopping.

We called for lunch 6 adults and 2 children and from the moment we entered the restaurant the staff were friendly and helpful our meals came very quickly and were piping hot.All the meals were very reasonably priced and we will go back again.

Just stopped in the town for a light lunch and found this little gem. Reasonably priced and excellent quality. A must if you are in Beverley.

This establishment is easy to pass bye due to being at first floor level and not a very prominent entrance. However, its well worth seeking out if you want a good value for money meal. The menu is limited but adequate and you will find something to your taste. The place is spotless,the staff friendly and helpful. The food is fresh and though not massive the portions are very fair. Egg, 2 slices of bacon,2 sausage, beans or tomatoes and toast for less than £4 is very fair and if your in before 11am you get tea or coffee included too. Beverley has a good number of eating places. Some are good some are bad and some are awful. Prices in general tend to be on the high side so this place is a welcome reprieve from the overpriced. Nothing fancy but good honest food at realistic prices.

I went to the cafe with my friend and was very pleased with the cheerful service I received. As well as the lovely food, staff were happy to help and I had a great experience there. I will defiantly be visiting again especially with the amazing offers they have.

Very friendly staff. Good plain food. Comfortable and clean with high food hygiene score. Well worth a visit

The Secret Garden cafes run by Cooplands Bakers are generally pleasant and consistent good quality. There are some hot dishes on soup, chicken curry, baked potatoes, baguettes and a range of fresh sandwiches and cakes. The Beverley Secret Café is spacious and relaxing for a quick snack or a cup of something hot.

I visited during half term with my child, it was busy but the staff kept things moving well. We had a kids box and a jacket potato, the sandwich was freshly made and the potato was lovely and well presented. All the staff here were very friendly and I would definitely go back.

I can't understand the staff at this cafe getting any bad reviews.we are regular visitors and have always been met with lovely friendly smiles from the staff,including Saturday girls.Nothing seems too much trouble! Ok nowhere is perfect but the nice atmosphere is partly why we go there,as do many others.

Took mum here for a quick morning coffee and cake. Arrived at 10.45, to be greeted by a large queue. Plenty of free tables, although most had dirty pots on them. After waiting 15 minutes I finally reached the till. Ordered the hot drink and tea bread offer only to be told it was 11am and the offer had finished. I politely pointed out that I'd been queuing since 10.45 and this was unacceptable. The assistant begrudgingly put the order through. Not so for the gentleman behind me who asked for the breakfast special and was categorically told no! He said the same a me - been waiting for 15 mins. The assistant was very rude to him which resulted in a minor altercation where the assistant said they had to have a cut off somewhere and the man accusing them of being slow! Not the best start to the morning. My order arrived and was very nice - the food is always good in this café, but today's visit let it down and I would probably try somewhere else in the future despite the very reasonable prices charged for food and drinks.

If you love jacket potatoes that's the place! The portion are good and there is a 2 for £6 offer that I found unbeatable. I would recommend jacket with coleslaw salad or cheese in particular. The service is fairly fast even when it is busy.

Somewhat noisy and very tightly packed but the food is acceptable. There is however a major problem, getting up their to eat. The stairs seem to be the only way up and down!

I meet up with a friend for our monthly chat. They let you stay for as long as you wish without pointedly moving you on as some cafes do if you overstay your welcome.Lovely cakes, sausage rolls etc and the quiche salads are lovely too.My only gripe is the way they start their cleaning operations well before the cafe closes. It's a tad disconcerting when chairs are put on tables whilst you're still eating. Other than that, it's not bad at all.

This is a nice place ,warm and welcoming and very good value.Two coffee's two cake's and change from a fiver.

I found this cafe on a cold foggy morning and enjoyed an excellent breakfast. This charming town has many places with a '5' hygiene rating and this is one of them. The cafe was immaculately clean.You pick up your tray, drink etc at the self service counter and place your order for any cooked food. Although it was fairly busy, my breakfast arrived quite quickly. It was generous, nicely served and hot. Very welcome and very good value too: a good plateful of hot food for 3.95 and, because it was before 11.00, a pot of tea included.The cakes looked delicious and my only regret was not having time to return later for one with another pot of tea!It's easy to miss the cafe as it's on the first floor. Don't miss the sign above the doorway in the street.

This is a nice place to have a sit down with a coffee or tea and a bite to eat. Food is ok. Staff very friendly and helpful.

We visited here after our first choice was found to be closed unexpectedly. We made our choices, bacon sandwich for me, full English for my husband, and a pot of tea to share. Then he went to order at the counter, and was gone for over 20 minutes !! We then had to wait another 15 minutes for the waitress to finally bring our meals, it would have been ok if the food was then worth the wait, but it was very average, and not really worth the money.

This cafe is on the first floor with no disabled access which is a shame.It is an old style cafe (yet light decor meant to feel Mediterranean- it doesn't quite work) with the self service counter along the back wall with staff serving you hot drinks using old fashioned boiling water taps, steam shots to froth your milky coffee and a smile if they feel like it.The hot food is a little expensive and is just churned out easy food like sandwiches, jacket potatoes and soup etc. There are other cafes in Beverley with better food for the same price in Beverley.The staff don't smile very much. On our visit every one of them looked fed up. It was a shame.I wouldn't recommend this and wouldn't go back.

Dirty tables everywhere and the decor is just naff and dated felt like I was on some cheap film set with all the pergolas and plastic.Food is very processed tasting thats why its cheap in here.Staff quite nice, but dont come here if you need wheelchair access or have a pram as there are a few stairs to get up to the cafe.

We use this little café when visiting Beverley. It is very handy for a shoppers tea stop or a meal. They do morning and afternoon tea specials with an offer of tea bread or similar in the morning or a bun of the day in the afternoon, for a good price. Toilets for both are handy, for customers use naturally. Very handy nice and clean little café, upstairs above a bakers shop that funnily enough is not the Cooplands shop! Well worth a visit when in Beverley shopping.

We often go in here when shopping in Beverley. Although the inside decor is not great, it is bright, clean and very popular. You order and pay for your food/drinks at the counter and it is brought to your table. There is a little wait (it is usually very busy) but they do bring your drinks to the table whilst you are waiting. The food is nice, we especially like the corned beef hash served in a yorkshire pudding. There is a good selection and the portions are about right for a light lunch. The salads are also nice. A great place for a quick, light meal in the heart of Beverley. Good value for money too.

We come here often for a tea and a coffee as we don't like drinking in the chain coffee shops. Very big place, staff good, clean tables a lot, open and light. Drinks good, food a bit expensive but also good. Good coffee and cake offers in an afternoon. Love the hot chocolate too. Only downside is they might need some new mugs and pots. They look like they're getting a bit old and dirty.

Decore is a bit so so. Seems to be popular particularly on a Saturday. Staff doesn't nose em to be able to keep up with cleaning away dirty dishes. Simple food and drinks. Nothing to shout about really.

It was like a prison or hospital dining area. And expensive, too. At least I no never to visit one of these places again.

I highly rate Cooplands Secret Garden Café it has a friendly atmosphere around the place and is always extremely busy with friendly attentive staff and it is value for money. It is such a popular place.

Called here for lunch, had trouble finding a table without dirty crockery, none of which was removed during the half hour we were there. Saw several customers having to move trays from tables so they could sit down. TERRIBLE.

Visited this cafe a few times and am always satisfied. There are plenty of snacks to choose from and very reasonably priced too. The cafe always looks clean as are the toilet facilities. I would recommend this cafe.

We know of these cafes, as we visit the one in Scarborough when we visit. We got exactly what we wanted from our visit. Courteous staff, a lovely cup of milky coffee, a pot of tea (that easily gave you 2 cups), a very tasty custard tart and my daughter had a tea cake. It was all very clean as were the loo's.Everything was very reasonably priced.
