Goredale Refreshments in Craven

Came across this place by accident while out walking in the area..What a find as quality & variation is huge!!! Beacon egg cobs to hot sausage rolls & pie's. Sweets tea coffee among many other drinks. Best of all fantastic prices so much cheaper than anywhere in the area!!! everything piping hot!! If only Chatsworth Christmas Market could follow suit as every cob & sandwich is 🧈 buttered as it should be unlike other places mentioned 😉 Would definitely return to this place that sets standards for 99% of cafes & so called upmarket food stalls!!!

What a welcome sight after a long walk! The owners are very friendly and chatty. I had a delicious cheese salad barm, and my partner had Yorkshire Pasty and Sausage roll. The little map of the Walk is a nice touch. We thoroughly enjoyed our food and drinks, and look forward to visiting again.

Fantastic food. Well prepared. Very good value. Belty burger Highly recommended - excellent local ingredients.

After a long walk on a warm day, it was a welcome sight to see a refreshment van, good snack menu, we only had an icecream but very good.

Lovely little stop with fresh food, ice creams and drinks. As it is such a popular spot and the first place we’d seen for ages I expected the prices to be high but it was actually cheaper than any of the cafes in town and the food was lovely!

This looks like a sandwich van but is much more. A lot of the food is fresh and home made, the soup in winter is delicious, the bacon and egg sandwich superb and the service spot on, The location can't be bettered

Brilliant spot and lovely food, a welcome sight coming off the tops and kept us going on our walk. Fantastic service too, thanks

Wow what a welcome sight it was to see this catering stand at the end of the long walk over malham cove just before going to goredale scar and Janets foss. A good selection of hot food and drinks - locally sourced burgers, sausages, bacon all cooked perfectly and served in fresh soft bread buns. Hot and cold drinks, cake, ice creams and chocolate available. Couldn’t have been located in a better place. Sausage and egg sandwich was absolutely delicious!

Surprised to find an excellent caterer walking between Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar. What a welcome sight - and a lovely bacon butty!

A very impressive little business - the ham and salad sandwiches were excellent lunches for our walk, good quality ham and generous portions. The bacon sandwiches were delicious, up to farm shop standards and the prices were not extortionate as you might expect in such a popular spot. We kept coming back for more.

Visited on Sunday 16th May 2021 On our return journey from Gordale Scar back to Malham via Janet's Foss Waterfall. The refreshment stall was parked in a dedicated layby as you cross the cross between both features. Nice range of food and drink as well as local guides. No seating when we went (Maybe Covid related) but there was a convenient wall to sit and finish your ice cream. Say this on the Julia Bradbury TV show too.

If your out walking you must visit gordale refreshments. Excellent choice of food and drinks. Good prices. Staff very friendly

We have called at the refreshment trailer many times always first class drinks and sandwiches the tuna mayo is a favourite, very pleasant stop between walks.

Thank you so much for being open during these times and providing such quality food! 10/10 for safety measures too and the two ladies that were working there are just pure gems :) My partner and I both had a roast beef sandwich with onions and gravy, in the middle of no where at the bottom of Gordale Scar on a beautiful day. Couldn't ask for anything better so thanks so much for providing for all of us hungry walkers and cyclists! Hope you're there every time we come for a visit because you're amazing. Thanks again!

Been here about 4 times and probably the best butty van I’ve ever been to! Tasty home cooked snacks and sandwiches. Always look forward to it on our walks, highly recommend! :)

After a trek up the cove, came across this burger van on route to Gordale Scar. Had no cash or card as wasn’t expecting a refreshment service along the way. The kind lady was very accommodating and let us bacs payment across (which took a while due to signal) the food was amazing, homemade soup and chunky gammon ham salad sandwich, very fresh and tasty. Really welcoming, clean burger van. Highly recommend. If the lady that served us today gets to read this. Thank you :)

This si top quality snack van run by local B and B owner carol. The food is top quality and reasonably priced and l'd recommend the egg butty. We also had a (decaf) coffee and tea before we headed up to Gordale Gorge. Highly recommended for a rest as there is plenty of seating or just some nice food in a really nice spot.

The sandwiches are big with generous portion of beef and not pre sliced as found in some cafes. Good location on route of our walk.

A welcome cup of tea and lovely ice cream served by friendly staff on a very hot day a lovely spot for a rest before continuing on our walk.

Stopped here for a cup of tea and a cake, friendly staff and good service, all day cafe. This is a beautiful spot to stop and rest, thank you.

Been to plenty of catering vans whilst walking the dales but this is by far the best cup of tea I've had. The kids and wife enjoyed ice creams and drinks realistic prices. 👍

After a nice wander from Malham Cove we came across the Gordale Refreshments van and what a welcome find it was. Carol is one of life's absolute diamonds and everything she sells from the van is fresh, mainly home made and most certainly served with great pride and its the perfect wee place to stop for a bite to eat and a cup of tea

Freshly made bacon butties were superb, one of the party had a ham salad (again freshly made ) sandwich which was equally as good. Ice cream just as good and service with a smile. Exactly value Highly recommend

Expertly placed to entice the many walkers passing by, Gordale Refreshments will make sandwiches to order, as well as providing a number of snacks and drinks.As a regular visit to this part of the world over the years the little truck that the very pleasant attendants serve out of seems to have been here as long as the Scar itself. There's ample seating provided roundabout, and the sandwiches are pretty good. Drinks, ice-creams and confectionery are also available.I would happily call upon Gordale Refreshments again were I in the market for a no-nonsense sandwich.

Great stop off on our walk around Malham - got the usual teas coffee ice cream cold drinks - all reasonably priced we had an egg and bacon sandwich freshly made and local ham sandwich - delicious - recommended !!!

Found this unexpected treasure on the way to Gordale Scar and seeing that the day had turned out warmer than expected the ice creams were a welcome sight. Called in again for a sandwich on our way back.

After the steep walk up to the limestone pavement, this was like finding an oasis in the desert! Gorgeous ice cream and a hot dog next time!

Had to wait a while whilst our son explored Gordale Scar more thoroughly than we had the energy to. Great little spot for a hot drink, snack and an al fresco sit down. Cheap and cheerful and very welcome.

Well situated in a layby between Janet's Foss and Gordale Scar this van provides snacks and drinks at reasonable prices. tasty butties, hot chocolate, ice creams, sweets available. A few chairs available to use outside. This van has been here some years so must be doing something right.

In the right location to be honest. Reasonable prices and a small collection of food and ice cream. A good brew after a little walk was needed and really warmed me up.

Perfect stop off, welcome cuppa, very friendly Yorkshire welcome. Picturesque surroundings between gordale scar & Janet’s Foss.

Situated in a lay-by at the bottom of Gordale Scar. This was a very welcoming site after our very long walk around Malham Cove, Malham Tarn and Gordale Scar. Coffee was hot and refreshing and we also purchased a warm pork sandwich, a hotdog and some ice creams. Seats were available and the scenery was relaxing. Good value and lovely food

Have been coming to Malham since I was a child and now children of my own. This refreshment van is in a perfect location, between Gordale Scar and Janet's Foss. There are several walks that cross here, and this is ideally located as a stop on any of those walks. There are chairs set out on the stone bridge over the beck. Serves snacks, drinks (hot and cold) and ice creams. Was open well after 5 when we were there on a Sunday.
