Cooplands in Ryedale

Had some fresh sandwiches made for a trip on the steam train! Absolutely fantastic and at a great price too!!

I was a bit peckish so popped in here for a vegan steak bake and it was very tasty. It was takeaway so can’t really comment on service other than the people serving me who were perfectly fine.

Popped in for pastry’s, sandwiches and cakes with my family for lunch. Lovely food, cheap and fresh. The staff were friendly and helpful

Always stop off at Cooplands when in Pickering. Personally love their fresh sandwiches and it's nice they do meal deals which are perfect for lunch.

Had a bacon bun small bun scrappy bit of bacon next time will go to cafe next to costa bottom of market place

Bought a bakery kit from cooplands pickering, absolutely fantastic £15 we got pretty much all ingredients for pizza base, gingerbread persons and chocolate brownies. Brilliant idea! Well worth it!

Gone are the days of a decent tray bake.. 95% flakey pastry and 10% filling.. Very poor but quite pricey. Lovely staff but overall a pretty crap product The staple tray bake is a thing of the past ☹️

Meeting a friend so popped in here for a cuppa . Never have coffee in here as not very nice . Good cup of tea and not expensive.

Organised and food really good. Cleaned chairs as well as tables which is always a hit with me

Went to Cooplands Secet Garden for lunch today. Did not feel social distancing was being adhered to. Had to wait ages for tables to be cleared by the two young staff, when they were cleared the food residue was not cleared from floor. Only one way in and out therefore people waiting had no where to move to to allow exiting customers to leave. I witnessed two female staff share the same face visor and a male member of staff put a glove on to take cash from a customer and then carried on serving with that glove on. Customers using same pen to write their contact details down and no wiping done before next use. We will not be returning.

I had a great Ham Sandwich, very tasty. My husband had pies that he said really weren’t that great.

Fantastic food for a great price

Lovely homemade pasties, lovely staff.

Some of the baked cakes are overpriced for what you get but cannot fault the bread. So soft and lovely. I find all cooplands to be the same quality so you know what you are getting. Will alternate between Thomas' and Cooplands if in Pickering.

Amazing food the hot chocolate is amazing i can not express in words him much i enjoyed the food

Bright, clean and cheerful cafe occupying half of the bakery, run by very welcoming and efficient staff. Good range of fresh cakes add you'd expect, in addition to hot food, decent tea and several deals which make it more than affordable. Just a shame the sandwiches are made with thin shop sliced bread, then pre-cut, plated and clingfilm wrapped, rather than generous and freshly made.

Called for breakfast. Friendly staff, quick service. Plates small. Sausage very tough skin. Bacon also hard and tough. Price good.

Good and relatively cheap food and tea. A variety of cakes and the breakfast is nicely cooked, if a bit small.

My husband and I attended the 1940`s weekend recently and he went to the shop, with a long queue outside. The service was brilliant and the choice excellent, unlike the majority of refreshment sellers on the day (Saturday) who advertised food but had "run out". Well done Cooplands!

Came in to Pickering on the train and came across cooplands. Greeted in the cafe by a very polite and cautious young man. A credit to the company. I ordered an all day breakfast and a tea. Tea was very good. Breakfast not so good. I nearly burst out laughing when i saw the size of the plate but to be honest i had eaten a few hours back in Whitby. My round of toast came prebuttered.....or was it butter ? The sausage were thin link and tasteless. Skin was so thick i worried about cutting through it with the blunt knife. The meal was fast food fryup. I've eaten in a lot of greasy spoons over the years and if i'd been served this would probably not comment. Whilst talking to a relative today about my weekend away, she mentioned a similar experience with the sausages and plate side. Come on Coopland you can do better !

My long time favourite for pastries!

All cooplands are really top notch this one is no different.first class service with a smile and prices are okay.

after a day out on the steam train we stopped here for a coffee and cake. The staff were very friendly and both the coffee and cake was lovely. Not overpriced and relaxing atmosphere

Called at Pickering on a coach trip, decided to have lunch at this cafe. Ordered at the counter and was then brought our order to the table. We both had cheese and ham toastie served with a small side salad. Iced cream bun to follow - yum. All very tasty. Filter coffee was ok but not very hot but wouldn't stop me from returning. Food was delicious and service was very friendly. Good value for money too.

Great to find somewhere serving lunch on market day. The cafe was fairly busy. Orders taken at the till, then delivered quite quickly. Beef casserole and rice very pleasant. Easy access toilet at the rear, looked well kept. Staff pleasant and helpful on a busy day

A nice clean cafe on the market place. Friendly helpful staff. Went in for a catch up with a friend. The hot chocolate was nice. Tables cleared quickly. The only thing is there is a lot of tables in a small cafe so sitting down comfortably is a bit of a problem. Like a lot of cafes they do a loyalty card. Good shop attached selling a variety of bread cakes etc. Would recommend and visit again.

we called at this shop in market place Pickering it was full of all things nice to eat we had a sandwich and cake plus a cold drink was not disappointed walk along the road and sat with our snacks by the cross . they do nice sandwiches a vast selection of cakes plus pies and sausage roll service was very good.

We visit a lot of cooplands to use the secret garden cafe. Generally they are good but this ne was poor. Jacket Potatoe did not appear at its best. Cakes from the shop are good. Staff shop were friendly.

Usual cooplands food, cheap but quality sausage rolls, nice cakes and quick service. What is not to like?

This place has the crispiest bacon I have ever tasted in my life and there is a wide range of options available for breakfast, lunch and/or even dinner. Great value for money!

It's really quite simple. I just love Cooplands cafés. No matter which branch you visit the staff, the menu, the food, is always spot on. The sandwiches are fresh, the scones and cream are to die for.

Superb, great food, sit down cost obviously higher than takeawa but service and products cannot be faulted, enjoy!!

Called in Sunday morning with a view to get a roll made to takeout and some cakes was not dissapointed best chicken roll ever

Took mother for dinner we had a lovely large Yorkshire pudding full of homemade savoury mince. Nice friendly staff helpfull and helpful.

Have always liked this nice clean shop run by friendly polite staff. The bread and cakes are fresh and the prices good.

Absolutely spotlessly clean! Great selection of cakes and light meals. Very good value for money. Didn't serve lattes but the very helpful friendly assistants made a very good milky coffee.

Visited over 10 years ago and it's still there. Had a great snack, reasonable and staff friendly. Ideal stop off on way to Scarborough.

brilliant food, i have never gone anywhere else for cakes and buns and bread. brilliant bakery and great staff

Popped in here for a bit of light lunch when exploring Pickering. We got 2 hot beef and onion sandwiches and soup which were all beautiful! Staff were really friendly and attentive and reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend a visit!

Whilst on a day out in Pickering on Monday 29/04/2018 my wife and I wanted a drink. We looked around and decided on Cooplands as we have been told by many people they are very good. We both had an excellent curd cheese cake. My wife had a coffee and I had a green tea. My wife was disappointed that the coffee was filtered and watery. We thought very expensive compared to the branded coffee chains. My green tea was ok but as with the coffee you only get a very small cup. Not what we expected and next time will stick with Costa Coffee as it is better coffee and better value for the money. The young lady who served us however was very pleasant and friendly and a credit to Cooplands.

Called for a cuppa and cake , good selection of food and desserts at reasonable prices , nice and clean with friendly staff will be calling again

If, like me, you need to travel on a small budget this is a perfect place to eat. The "Secret Garden" at Cooplands I have always found to provide a good wholesome meal for everyday prices, which is important when visiting tourist places whose prices are more 'creative' than 'value for money'. Friendly, clean and good food, need I say more.

Very pleasant cafe. Food and drinks good value especially the specials e.g. cream scone and tea / toasted tea cake and tea. Decor fine and staff most obliging. Recommend and would return.

This bakery cafe is well used by locals. It can be very busy, but you should always find a seat. Good clean toilets. Excellent value for money. Extensive menu.

A return visit whilst in Pickering for their Wartime Weekend, despite the pressure on the staff they responded well, service was good and no one had a lengthy wait for either a table or at the shop counter.

Light bright and clean ideal for a snack Main meal menu a little restricted Morning and afternoon drink and toast...

They have lovely cheese straws here. Very tasty and cheap - 5 for £1. Always very popular to snack on!...

Popped in for a snack. Plenty of choice ideal for family. Friendly staff. Worth a visit. Place was clean and...

Called in for tea and cake. Everything was very nice (toasted tea cake, Yorkshire curd tart and a lovely pot...

Se detuvo para té y un pastel. El té era muy bueno y los pasteles que seleccionamos eran agradables y sabrosas. El lugar ideal para una rápida taza o una comida ligera.

Dropped in late afternoon and it looked like it had been busy. Pickering is a stop off for the coach tours so it was closing the cafe 'Secret Garden'at 4.00pm. Excellent selection of pastries cream cakes etc and really good value for money. It adjoins the baker so you can do a pastry take away if too busy. Excellent service from courteous staff. Clean and well presented premises.

Staff are super the shop is clean and the bacon and tomato sandwich are to die for. The custard pies are pretty good too.

Popped in here this afternoon after looking around Pickering. Chose this place as it wasn't too pricey nor too cheap. Anyhow, we were pleased with the choice as we had a bacon toastie and tea for a special price of £3.95 each. the inside seating area is to the roght of the shop as you go in and was light, airy and the service - you go up to the counter and order by the way - was very prompt & efficient. Good toastie too. Tea was easily two cups each :)

Stopped for lunch with the family.lovely fresh food and very good prices.Staff very helpful .Children lunch box great value for money x

We visited the café twice during our visit to Pickering. The shop has a very good selection of cakes and bread for sale as well as hot snacks like sausage rolls and steak slices. We also visited their café The Secret Garden which sells very good value snacks and pastries. While we were in Scarborough we also visited their café which was equally pleasant with excellent fare. We will be back in September when we are visiting again.

Been to this café several times and enjoy a snack and a large pot of tea. The scones are delicious as is the bacon sandwiches. The café is separate from the cake shop and a very pleasant area. There are toilets on the premises.

When you walk in its bright,light and airy,the staff are polite and helpful,the menu caters for all types even vegetarians and gluten free.the service is exceptional and friendly.the toilets are kept clean and bright the only down side is some of the teapot lids don't fit properly so they leak when pouring.would be even better if it had wi-fi.

Clean, warm and friendly. Great choice of food and reasonable prices. Lovely cakes , jacket potatoes, and special offers. Well worth stopping of at when walking around the town

Stopped in for a hot drink and cake to find there was an afternoon offer on, good choice of cream cake/pastries to choose from, good value.

Love the food here, always great and taste. Would defently recommended this place. Sausage rolls are great better than Gregs, cakes are huge and lovely.

A nice friendly bakers that has a good selection of cakes and bread rolls etc, not forgetting the freshly baked sausage rolls (4 for £1 is one more and a third less than other venues) Yummee.Dont miss the strawberry cream tarts, simply the best.There is a small cafe in the shop too, very popular.

Love this cafe, the food is always very tasty and great prices. The ladies who work there are very helpful and friendly, they can't do enough for you. We will definitely be returning.

If you just want a cup of tea coffee or any beverage with a light snack this is perfect and not at all pricey.

Popped in for a quick sandwich to take away to eat on journey home. Helpful staff pointed out meal deal. Bakery food is always fresh. Favourites are vanilla slice and tea cakes. Ginger squares are always sticky and moist. Bread rolls soft and fresh. Other reviews mention cafe, was not aware but will remember in future.

Called in for a snack lunch and were blown away with the offers that they had, we ordered sandwiches and finished off with 'Fresh Fruit Tarts' and they were fantastic. The young staff couldn't have been nicer and more attentive, well done to all, we will certainly call again.

Clean cosy and comfortable hot and cold food served by friendly staff on the main street in pickering good all rounder perfect for children

We usually visit this shop when in Pickering I love their Yorkshire curd tarts. This time I also had a cheese and onion pasty and an apple pasty all very good can't wait for our next visit

Best toasted tea cakes I've had in while friendly staff, nice atmosphere & cleanI would come back here again if in the area

Bakery and café. This is a fabulous bakery and so reasonably priced. The cream cakes are divine and full of cream, thick and fluffy and there is such a good choice. The staff are friendly and check ingredients of everything if you need to know anything specific. They do a lovely salad and you can eat in the café or get it in a take away box.

We found this superb bakery last year whilst on holiday near Pickering and returned again several times whilst on holiday this year, for freshly made rolls to put in our backpacks for a picnic later. The bakery has a well deserved 5 star hygiene rating. There is a good choice of fillings to choose from and what we like in particular, is that the rolls are buttered before the filling goes in, just like you would do at home. Many places nowadays just put the filling straight in the dry rolls, which we dislike. The rolls come in two sizes, small or large. The large ones are round baps the size of a teaplate and the small ones (not so small!) are squarer, with a choice of white or wholemeal. The array of cakes is amazing and it really is hard which to choose which ones to have. The rolls are filled on a clean, dedicated work surface at the back of the serving area. Each roll is individually wrapped and placed into a paper bag, so no filling leaking out into your rucksack or bag. The cakes were put into a small cardboard box, again easy to carry. The service is quick, efficient and friendly. We didn't have need to use the cafe, so cannot comment on that, but can thoroughly recommend the filled rolls for walkers and anyone on holiday in the area who wants to take a packed lunch out with them.

We called in for a coffee and tea and were pleasantly surprised at the prices. The place seems to have been upgraded recently and named "Secret Garden" - not sure why as there is no garden.

This is a café and bakery together. The bakery is on the left as you enter and it serves a range of breads, pies and cakes. The café is on the right and through an iron door. It is only quite small with about 8 tables. You order at the counter and either collect the food yourself or hot food is brought to your table when it is cooked. We had the sandwich and coffee deal (see menu photo). The food was very reasonably priced and the sandwiches were freshly made. We enjoyed our visit and especially the cakes.

Attractive cafe section of a bakery offering a wide range of meals. Service with a smile and fresh food with taste. We would return again!

We like going here, into the bakery and the cafe. Its always busy because of the good quality and freshness of products! Never yet had a complaint!!!

Nice cafe with prices that are reasonable nice food as bakery items come from there shop nice setting although some tables could be rather close together if you sat the four people at them that they have chairs for

A good place to get a cup of tea or coffee and a delicious cake in the cafe. The adjoining shop has excellent bread,scones and pies.

This café is really good ,we had two coffee's and cakes ,they was served quickly and coffee can be made with hot or cold milk.The cakes were lovely,for under a fiver this was really good value.

We always visit the cafe in Pickering when in the town it's a nice old fasionshed cafe the secret garden it's has pleasent staff nice seating and great food nice cup of Yorkshire tea it's great and has a good atmosphere it's worth getting a loyalty card too collect stamps for a free drink and you can use in all the Coplands cafes they always do an afternoon offer a tea or coffee and a cake for only £2 can't beat it

On the Sunday of the war weekend we stopped for breakfast. Nothing out of a hot cabinet, all freshly cooked and tasty. Even your toast was buttered. Great price, great meal.

Good place to pick up bread or filled rolls. Also has a little cafe if you want to stay a while if you have tired feet!

Very nice place to stop, where we had a tuna jacket potato and tea. They had very nice cakes and pies. The café is to the side of the bakers and is call the Secret Garden.

Fabulous bakery and very friendly staff who were more than happy to help with an allergy query. The cakes are amazing and in a town with many bakeries this one is very good value for money and delicious at the same time. If I go back to Pickering again will definitely visit this bakery.

Just called in for a quick drink. Wow what a find. They do lovely cakes and bakes and the prices are great. Staff were lovely and friendly. Wish this was more local to us. Also have a selection of specials at lunch time.

Excellent service. Excellent food the problem was knowing what to choose. Really reasonable prices. Absolutely fantastic in every way.

So much to choose from ,the filled rolls are excellent, sausage rolls cakes I can go on all first class .The staff are so helpful we always go there when in area

Pickering offers many eateries - Cooplands caters at the budget end of the market. As part of a regional chain of bakers, many people know what to expect and at this branch I wasn't disappointed. Pastry based products, sweet products, bread products are the main staples on offer at good prices. Hot drinks are available, decent quality but this is no Starbucks if you like a good coffee.The staff were friendly and engaging. Service was good. The reason I haven't awarded top marks - they were out of many products that I wanted to buy with over 2 hours left of the day. Annoying for me perhaps but perhaps this suggests good service and quality.

What brilliant bakers you have here! The cakes are lovely, the staff friendly and patient and as for the cakes they sell them at very good value for money. You do really good decorating and the service is fast.

The food is freshly baked.Service is adequate.There are many tea rooms in Pickering and this is just one with nothing too special abou it.

Go for lunch regularly .the food is always very good and very reasonably priced.the cafe is very clean and the staff are great

My wife and I stopped here on the way to Whitby last week and both had the small breakfast and coffee in The Secret Garden Café.Pleasant lady served us at the counter, gave us the number of our order to put on the table in the holder and food brought to table soon after. Food was reasonable enough and coffee was ok. Certainly did its purpose.

my meal was chilli whith rice partner had ham sandwich both very nice tea and coffee quite quick service very polite not as good value as wilfs cafe

The cakes were lovely and prices were very good (not expensive - very reasonable) and the service was very good too! A great stop for a cake treat after the train trip from Whitby! Highly recommend. Thanks!

Went to Cooplands in Whitby and as it was really busy bought the pre-prepared club sandwiches which were absolutely packed with filling and really delicious. We also had flapjacks and Chocolate and caramel danish which were really good. The sandwiches were so good we bought some more in Scarborough where it was a bit quieter and had our sandwiches made to our specification.

FAB fish and chips, fish pie, fish cakes, lots of chips, good tea, great service at tables though very very busy on a Friday night. Plenty of choice on the menu other than fish with pies and other delights. choice of mushy or regular peas, good mash.

Handy location at the bottom of town. Had all the usual fare - must recommend the Yorkshire Curd tarts- like an egg custard with fruit in.

Pleasant but fairly basic surroundings, friendly staff, lovely cakes, sandwiches and jacket potatoes. Reasonably priced.

I cannot resist a Cooplands Bavarian Slice and a stop off in Pickering just had to be a good place to buy one. What a pleasant surprise to find out that the Cooplands shop has the Secret Garden Cafe attached. So we stopped for coffee and cake. Very nice. Very clean. Could do with bigger tables and a little more room, but overall very nice.

This bakery sells wonderful cakes, pastries and bread. Some, such as sausage rolls, pasties and cheese straws are baked on the premises and are delicious. The tea room serves all the bakery products as well as lovely light lunches. Not a place to visit if you are watching your weight!!

A pleasant tea room close to the Pickering Railway, serving all day breakfasts, light lunches, etc, etc. Prices average.

Had a spot of lunch here and was impressed with the food and the service. The quiche was delicious and my daughters toasted sandwich was very enjoyable, reasonable price as well.
