Falling Foss Tea Garden in Scarborough

Lovely outdoor tea rooms right next to the waterfall

Nice coffee stop tucked away in the woods near a waterfall. Very tranquil!

Beautiful spot in the woods near the waterfall. Great for Tea, coffee, lunch etc.

Visited today and honestly was such a nice scenic walk down. It’s a steep walk but worth it. Staff were super friendly. We ordered hot drinks and some cakes. I’d definitely visit again!

A great outdoor hideaway place, for walkers, visitors to area. Wonderful/safe view of Falling Foss. We called on our way home from Whitby. Didn't get chance to do a walk but will next time! Space for little ones to have a run around, few play items. Delicious snacks, cakes etc. and great coffee. Delighted that a chaffinch came near to our table looking for crumbs to eat?!

Lovely family run cafe in a fantastic location. Short stroll downhill from the car park which is free !! Sat in the sun on both occasions this week and thoroughly enjoyed both visits. Family and staff all friendly and professional. Great value for money 10/10 !!! Sadly docked one point as first visit was exceptional food , faultless ... photo 2 roll.. Second visit sadly the same roll was a slight let down... photo 1 roll.. Will be back to try something new.. :)

Excellent scone and coffee. A delightful walk along the river to get there from the Forestry commission car park.

This is a hidden gem the walks through the woods and falls are lovely. The food and drink area is fantastic lovely afternoon and memories.

Nice little coffee shop right next to the waterfalls, plenty of outside seating, food and drink fairly priced, we had 2 coffee's and a scone for £9

I went in the off season when the Tea Garden was closed but it is lovely place for a hike and has a beautfil waterfall.

A lovely hidden place, well worth a visit

A really nice little spot for some great food and good hot drinks! Lovely walk down from the car park, beautiful setting. Hosts were lovely and friendly, making you feel welcome. Popular with walkers/hikers, it’s a must for anyone near Whitby.

Fantastic walk in the woods lovely waterfall and tea scones and cream where lovely

Amazing place in the forest. Waterfall, with outdoor cafe. Nice people running the food offer.

Wonderful lunch at Falling Foss Tea Gardens; very tasty salads and sandwiches freshly made and very well priced. Good scones and other cakes for afterwards. A must if you a visiting the Falls

A peaceful coffee and snack place in the woods on the coast to coast. Take away from the kiosk and then you sit outside at the picnic tables. Gluten free cake selection but couldn't see any savoury gluten free items so ate elsewhere.

A lovely outdoor cafe above Falling Foss. Sandwiches are sizeable - just the ticket after hiking a loop from the nearby car park.

Fantastic cakes and drinks available at a reasonable price. The viewpoint is welcome at the start or finish of any walk

Went to Falling Foss today. Easy parking but a steep walk down to the tea garden. When we got there though, it was well worth it. Pretty waterfall and lovely outdoor garden area with great range of delicious food and drinks. The scone was lovely and my partner enjoyed his food too. Sweet little birds flitting about by the tables, I could have stayed for ages. We walked up by the river but didn't go as far as MayBeck today but we will definitely return

Awesome place to have a walk and grab a coffee n cake

Lovely surroundings, and amazing scones!

Amazing place, the views the waterfall are just wow! Lovely cafe, with good food, friendly staff. Highly recommend going

Lovely place to stop for tea right by the waterfall

What a wonderful tea garden in the woods. Can't believe we haven't found it before! Lovely staff and delicious cakes.

Beautiful setting, delicious, fresh food, friendly service! A little gem, hope to return!

Really nice area, cakes were a bit expensive and dry. Was told women’s toilet was in need of a clean

Lovely place very relaxing long walks nice little cafe well worth a visit

We always have the most amazing time here. The staff are friendly, the food amazing and most items homemade. The view and setting is idyllic. So much to do and see around and about the cafe with hunts and trails on offer for most calendar events. The children would play all day in the beck whilst adults can enjoy a scone and a glass of prosecco!

Lovely place to visit from whichever route you walk in on, the family are very welcoming and the cakes were enjoyed by all!!

A gem in a wood, an excellent place to visit. Lovely people excellent food and facilities

This tearoom is by the falls and they serve the best bacon rolls of all the tearooms we visit. Their cakes are excellent and the portion size is good. You need extra cake when you have walked a long way. The prices are good. There are toilets and they are dog friendly.

Very steep, muddy climb down to waterfall. You can see it from the tearooms. Tearooms, service was ok. Not sure they cater for the masses who turn up. Ran out of all sandwiches by lunchtime. But very pleasant sat in the garden.

Great place to visit for woodland walk and lovely outdoor (some covered) seats for the small cafe. Delicious food in lovely surroundings. Some steep parts so not an easy walk.

So pretty here. Lovely walks and gorgeous cafe with searing outdoors and beautiful views

Beautiful circular walk. Stunning waterfall. Tea room was amazing friendly, yummy cakes and coffee.

Was actually closed when we went but so pretty.

STUNNING !! An absolute gem of a find. Scones delicious

Great place for kids and good food

Beautiful location and wonderful food. I would recommend the homemade soup.

Beautiful location for a hot chocolate on an autumn walk.

Great place to visit in a beautiful part of Yorkshire

Great location, great food and lovely walk

Had a lovely time and a very tasty afternoon tea

Beautiful food. Tranquil place. Friendly people.

A jewel in North Yorkshire's crown. The mushroom ciabatta was superb. Lovely surroundings and lovely staff.

Such a lovely please to have a cup of tea and a scone. Waterfall is just lovely.

Great food. Very reasonable price. All.outdoors but patio heaters made it enjoyable.

Be aware , its a steep walk from the car park to the tea rooms. But very nice if you make it lol

Great food, and such a cozy spot in the autumnal woods

Lovely little tea room with lots of outdoor picnic tables, some under cover. The bacon rolls were really good quality and there was a good range of delicious sweet treats. Well worth a visit.

Such a beautiful place to visit! We rnjoyed our walk and the tea room.is a little gem!the stuff was amazing with complementary marshmallow for the kids yo toast in the fire. Sandwiches and coffee was excelent and my goodnews even the toilet was beautiful

Fantastic little cafe. Amazing Bacon rolls

Mushroom ciabattas from the tea room eaten within earshot of the water falls. Plenty of outside seating for humans and their dogs. Walk down through the woods to find this special place. Food and coffee excellent.

Gorgeous place great coffee and cake

We parked in village hall carpark and walked through the woodland to the falls and tea garden. About a mile and a half, quite muddy (need boots), uphill with lots of steps but very pretty. Tea garden was amazing, three of us had scones which were delicious, my husband had a BLT which was declared the best ever, really well filled roll. Toilet facilities were beautifully clean and well serviced. We then walked back to the cars. Fabulous day out for our wedding anniversary. Thank you so much.

Best place ever! Lovely food and drinks in the woods. Just take a moment to walk down the hill and take the time to reflect on life.

Beautiful place and well worth a visit. Our dog loved the walk and the views were stunning. Simple but tasty food at the outdoor cafe, and welcoming, friendly staff.

Lovely staff, walks and hot drinks. Didnt have any food but looking at others eating the food look nice.

what a beautiful and peaceful place to visit as other people have said a very steep hill but really worth it we had coffee and cake very reasonable Price we have pictures of birds on table feeding our crumbs

Great coffee just when we neefef it.

Beautiful, good place for swimming if you like coldish River water. Nice and good walknway around.

Idyllic and quiet little spot away from the crowds. Lovely walks from the waterfall under lush deciduous cover. Now I’m not exaggerating here…had probably the best BLT on fresh Ciabatta in Yorkshire (where do they get that scrumptious bacon!?), possibly this side of Veneto. Highly recommended but please keep it to yourself…

Amazing place! Beautiful setting with fantastic coffee. Gluten free bread is the best around!

Lack of signs to the falls from the main road, and people asking us which way to tea room from the car park which is true more direction signs would be helpful

A magical setting. If you are in the area on a dry day, this is a must. Listen to the birds and cascading waterfall as you sip your smooth hot chocolate. Unforgettable experience.

Magical place the food is lovely and the people are friendly

Beautiful place to visit. Great little outside cafe , plenty of seating, some covered. Sensible footwear strongly advised, be aware, their is a quite steep walk down to the cafe & falls view point from the medium sized car park.Access to the bottom of the falls is possible but not sign posted as it’s unofficial I believe.. adult supervision of children is a must !! Caution needed on all the footpaths, plenty of tree roots to catch you out..

Delicious coffee and cakes in a beautiful, quiet setting. I had a scone with jam and cream and it was delightful. Would visit again.

Great location at top of waterfall

This wonderful hidden gem was delightful, what a magical place to have a bite to eat. Very friendly staff and the food was delicious, possibly the best BLT I've ever had, the location definatley helped. The toilets were very clean and had a view across the river. While the the little play area kept my two children entertained. We will definitely be returning next season!

What a find, really lovely staff and great cakes and Bacon Rolls. Beautiful walks too.

Lovely surroundings walks were quite easy tea room scones and clotted cream were delicious and very reasonably priced will visit again

As everybody has allready said nice place for a coffee or a snack,clean toilets available.

Lovely food friendly staff lovely place to eat and enjoy a walk

An absolute gem of a place. Fantastic simple food perfectly made and presented. I had a BLT and the bacon is dry cured the tomatos were fresh cherry tomatoes and the lettuce was more like a mini salad. Mega. Excellent selection of fresh tea and coffee. Little play area and loads of seating.....even bar stool type seating looking out over the stream. I did see a wood fired pizza oven that I guess they use at more peak times.

Definitely worth stopping here if you're in the area to see the pretty waterfall and having a break for a tea and a snack in the lovely outdoor tea garden (lots of tables under cover in case it rains!)

Bangin' bacon butty and Yorkshire Tea 🍵 Lovely eating area, surrounded by nature 🐦

Lovely hidden gem in the woods.

Lovely place to walk and eat cream scones in a forest

Absolutely beautiful quaint location, beautiful tea garden, serving cream tea, sandwiches and hot food, the nachos were amazing, good toilet facilities The enitre place is very hilly, quite a slope down from car park to tea garden and definitely a steep climb back up to car park Came here once before and it was all closed, so check opening times before coming, think it's seasonal so April - September However even if tea room is closed you can still walk the beautiful trails that are around the location Although on my first visit here (when it was closed) we were unable to locate the waterfall, had some lovely walks but could only see waterfall from the top Second visit here (in season) there was a small note on the tea room shed explaining the bottom of the waterfall wasn't on a direct footpath and they recommend against trying to get there Well it had been my mission for so long so we started the walk down, this is quite a long walk and at some points on quite a small footpath only wide enough for one person so if taking children i wouldn't let them go running of ahead! The walk down is quite steep but there is a clear footpath heading down Once down you see the river to your left, you need to cross the river and carry on upstream, however it really isn't on a footpath and you do need to cross stream a few times to be able to get to the bottom of the waterfall so I recommend wearing sensible, waterproof shoes! Although the route isn't on a footpath i wouldn't say it was overly difficult as long as your prepared to do a bit of climbing and ducking and crossing stream you'll get to the bottom, the walk back up is harder! But it is worth it

Amazingly peaceful little place, great for a walk and a coffee.

Lovely spot..but not quite what i expected for a tea room..tea hut would be better description..but gorgeous surroundings..

Fab place to stop for refreshments whilst exploring the local area. We'll definitely be returning as they are allergy aware.

Set in beautiful surroundings, very close to the waterfall

Hidden away in the trees this is a must visit place.Situated at the head of the waterfall the tea garden is quite a sun trap and the food is excellent.See if you can find the bridge troll.

Fabulous food in a magical place. We shared bacon and cheese in a ciabatta bun and a fruit scone. Then came back the next morning for breakfast. After a long walk we returned for lunch. Highly recommended.

After a nice walk by the beck to get to the tea rooms had a lovely bacon sandwich and tea. Then back to may beck car park can recommend.

Magical place that serves great drinks and food,recommended and definitely going again in the near future.

Such a tranquil setting beautiful

A beautiful environment in woods by the waterfall. Delicious cakes and ice cream.

Such a great spot to see the Falling Foss waterfall from. I feel the owners really cared about the environment - didn't see and Plastic at all, including kids slides etc. We had a good coffee and a brownie. Highly recommend.

Lovely place, so quiet, peaceful and pretty. Lovely tea, coffee and a BLT at the tea room.

oasis in the middle of Great Wood. Great coffee, cakes and sarnies 😋

A very welcome resting place after a long walk through the woods - and countryside - beside the Falls.

Just drinks and cakes etc served from a snack bar. Paper cups. Nothing special.

Great rest stop after a long walk. Try a BLT. Delicious!

We WILL be coming back here, beautiful spot with the sound of the waterfall in the back ground. It's a must if your in the area. Food was excellent and value for money- but save room for the cream tea 🍵🍴 Staff were polite and friendly

Staff seem very friendly and the scone, jam and cream were great.

Beautiful little place, in a beautiful part of yhr world

Been here a few times some good walks in the area then stop off at tea garden for cake and cup of tea something a bit different
