It’s been a while since I visited this little cafe but I was greeted with the same welcome as I always have been. This cafe may be small but its massive on service and the food is outstanding. On a cold winter morning like today I opted for the ham and cheese toastie and tomato soup off the specials board. I’m not sure of the actual price but I worked it out to be about £5. Absolutely beautiful home made soup along with the toastie both filled and warmed me for the day ahead.

Popped in for a cup of tea and a cake while waiting for husband. I asked for the tea in a takeaway cup in case I had to leave sharp, this wasn't an issue and I got coconut jam sponge cake and fruit and nut tiffin to go - both were delicious :) Husband met me at Jollys so we stayed for lunch and had the special which was a slow cooked pulled pork sub with stuffing and apple sauce, sautéed potatoes and a wee pot of gravy. I've had pulled pork, stuffing, apple sauce subs before from hog roast joints and this was MUCH better, really tasty and just fell apart. The gentleman behind the till took delight in explaining how the pork was slow cooked, the passion for food was lovely to hear. I didn't realise there was more seating upstairs until I went upstairs to the loo, so plenty of seating and good service. Unfortunately I was only passing through or I would be back :)

Fantastic cappuccino, yummy scones and friendly service. Very clean and bright. Obviously has regular clientele and staff on first name terms with some. Small and intimate.

A nice intimate cafe with extra seating upstairs. Table service with a smile. Food choices limited but good and cakes are excellent. Nice to see gluten free menus and not just the cake but bread as well. Dietary requests are happily dealt with. Excellent cuppa.

First time visiting, beautiful little cafe situated in Pontefract! Staff are extremely friendly and they have amazing options. I chose the Gluten-free chicken, cheese, bbq panini! Which was delicious and a lovely hot chocolate. The prices are great and reasonable! Will definitely be returning!

This is an excellent little English Tea Shop. My wife and I often visit for lunch and we always receive a warm welcome. My wife is coeliac so the wide range of gluten free food on offer is very welcome. The soup is always gluten free and is served with gluten free bread. Gluten free sandwiches, paninis, cakes are always available. Even when busy, which is pretty well every visit, a drinks order is taken within a couple of minutes of sitting down. The food is always freshly prepared whether it is an omelette, a sandwich or whatever. This is a little oasis in Pontefract and well worth a visit.

We ate here expecting delicious, deli-style food. But that is far from what we recieved. We ordered sandwiches, when they came they were no better than something I'd throw together really quickly on a morning to take to work, no garnish like in most places, just a few crisps. If you are expecting a good meal, this place is not for you.

Having been recommended this cafe we were really looking forward to our visit. We are not local to the area so we took the recommendation and visited this cafe. Unfortunately it did not live up to the recommendation, the food was greasy and inedible, the cutlery was dirty, the knife still having food debris on it, and the staff were quite rude . They were openly discussing the other food establishments in the area, pulling them to pieces, totally inappropriate where customers are. I don't think their manner is professional to say the least. My friend was upset when I told her of our visit, and apologised for recommending. Maybe it was just an off day, but we won't go there again.

Have just visited Jollys of Pontefract on Ropergate. What a lovely warm, welcoming atmosphere and the food was excellent. I ordered a jacket potato and got 2 potatoes with a side salad including an amazing home made coleslaw. Keep up the good work.

Been ordering regularly from here for about a year but today I bought what was assumed a "fresh" cream scone to find the scone itself stale, the fresh cream was hard and the fruit had gone mouldy.... not sure how long they had been sat there but it's definitely put me off. Called to let them know so they could check the others and the only response I got was thanks for letting me know.... no apology or offer of a refund.

Low quality, cold cooked breakfast! Sticky table and chairs with bad coffee. Seemed friendly though. With a little attention to detail it could be fantastic.
