I would definitely recommend not to get Sunday Lunch . The food arrived 5 mins from sitting down . We ordered the Beef which was very dry . The roast potato was in edible , rock hard. I’m not sure what was supposed to be turnip . I’ve never seen such a flat rubbery Yorkshire pudding . We hardly ate any of the food , but were charged full price . The Diet Coke was nice .

I approached hollyhocks back in April to see if they could host an afternoon tea for up to 10 people as a surprise for a friend's birthday in July. George got back to me & said they could. We discussed what we'd like for afternoon tea & they got back to me with a price of £15 per head plus drinks which I felt was really reasonable. We made a firm booking & several emails were exchanged regarding our requirements. They were extremely accommodating, offering to collect balloons for us & allowing us to put up birthday banners & put sprinkles on the table. On the day Sarah rang & offered to help set our table up which I accepted. They even managed to play happy birthday over the speakers tailored to include my friend's name which was lovely. From start to finish I can't thank George, Sarah & all the staff enough. They were very attentive to our every need & the afternoon ran like clockwork. They were absolutely brilliant. The food was excellent with a tasty selection of sandwiches, savoury bakes, freshly baked scones with jam & cream & a lovely selection of homemade cakes all topped off with teas, coffees and hot chocolate . Highly recommend a visit to this lovely cafe & bistro. You really won't be disappointed. 10/10 across the board.

Service by the two girls was excellent. They were chatty and pleasant. Only issue was the chef and the meal was not as expected

My visit to Hollyhocks has resulted in a letter from a debt recovery company for £160 due to their so called free parking arrangement, advertised both on the premises and at the roadside. In spite of being told to hand the fine notices in to Hollyhocks staff for cancellation and follow up verbal assurances that the fine had been cancelled in line with their arrangements and not to worry, I have been left out of pocket and subjected to anxiety and stress. I understand I am not the only person to have suffered this experience but the free parking offer continues to be displayed. Shame on you Hollyhocks.

Often call at Hollyhocks when passing or after a bike ride. It is a great place for food, coffee etc. The staff are brilliant and a special award should go to Sarah who must be the hardest working bar person/waitress for 300 miles at least. Highly recommended for any time of day and the Sunday dinners are excellent.

Best cafe in Guisborough Best coffee in Guisborough Best food in Guisborough BUT one female member of staff did destroy all this. when there was only 2 other couples in the place, who had already been served, and still made us wait over 13 minute before addressing us. Only to shout to us that she would see.us next after she had taken payment from the other two couples. I remember the days when the customer cam 1st. Sorry she shames the whole business .

Delicious, fresh, locally sourced food. A good varied menu. Breakfasts, all day bistro and great coffee. Why can’t more places be like Hollyhocks?

Have eaten here several times since it recently opened, always found the food to be fresh and tasty. Sarah and the staff are very friendly and helpful and help create a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. There would appear to be some sour grapes in some other reviews, due to the new boys on the block showing more established cafes in the town how it should be done. Would definitely recommend.

My friends and I had lunch there today and we all really enjoyed our meals! Plenty of variety to choose from and all very tasty homemade dishes at such reasonable prices. The surroundings are very nice, clean and with a modern feel. The staff were especially friendly and welcoming, by the end of our visit we were on first name terms with Sarah who looked after us very well, nothing was too much trouble for her and even though she was busy, she made sure we all enjoyed it and had a laugh and joke with us too! We will definitely be making this a regular place to visit.

Mediocre experience, I ordered a cheese scone and it was warmed in the microwave, making it quite rubbery. Also very cold as the doors kept opening.

My favourite cafe in Saltburn. Tea, cakes, cocktails and beer. It's also dog friendly and has indoor and outdoor seating. What's not to like.

Asked for bacon sandwich. Bought as a takeout, was handed over all wrapped up and in a bag. This is what I opened when I got home. Neither looked or smelled like bacon. Green tinged. Went straight into the bin
