Laburnum House in Richmondshire

Amazing service with beautiful food , local produce used, owner’s knowledge of his produce fantastic. Will come again definitely

What a really good find! Excellent ambience, service and quality drinks & food. All enhanced by welcoming , knowledgeable and friendly staff(hosts). Thank you Highly recommend

What a little gem of a place to find, excellent food and drink their homemade soup is gorgeous. It’s just off the Main Street so just take the time to find it well worth a visit

We stopped for coffee and a snack. My wife said it was the best cheese scone she’s ever had. The fruit cake and cheese was also right up there with the best. Service was very good and excellent coffee. One to seek out if your in Hawes.

A lovely exceptionally clean tearoom. The ham and cheese baguettes were amazing as were the delicious homemade soup and cheese scone. Dog friendly - our pooch loved his treats. Fab hosts. Will definitely return.

What a superb find. The staff/owners couldn’t have been more accommodating and opened up their summerhouse as we had our dog (who was immediately brought fresh water and biscuits). Our Rich tea loaf was served with a huge slice of locally sourced, award winning farmhouse Wensleydale from Curlew Dairy Yoredale - absolutely delicious. All their ingredients we learnt were sourced locally, often championing small suppliers and the passion and pride in their hospitality shone through. Highly recommend taking a short detour off the Main Street to this lovely tea room.

We stopped here for lunch and had delicious food from local suppliers with very friendly service, would highly recommend

A small cafe that only serves baguettes, pies and cakes. All local produce used with names of the local suppliers given. Well worth a visit.

Lovely little tearoom in Hawes. They accommodated our 1 and 4 year old by adapting the menu, also pointing out their baby changing room and provided a high chair. Delicious mushroom soup and soft, fresh baguettes. Extremely clean, especially the toilets. Thank you!

Friendly and welcoming tea room. The baguettes we chose were freshly made to order and were delicious as was the coffee. Saw that the owners also do B&B we will have to investigate one day!

First class customer service was the first positive. Catered for my allergy so professionally and thoughtfully. Our lunch was first class with local ingredients which were delicious. Many thanks - we will be here again. Exceeded our expectations.

The food was at the highest quality and a decent, fair price I could highly recommend this tea room. Also first class service

My wife and I where staying at the nearby caravan park and had planned a visit to this tearoom on our last day which we were really looking forward too. When we arrived at the tea room we planned to ask for a table and be directed to the dog friendly area however as we approached the front door we where greeted by an extremely rude chef shouting at us that no tables where available and it clearly said so on a sign at the door. Firstly the didn’t have my glasses on didn’t see the sign and secondly we followed a postwomen through the gate so the sign was obscured anyway. The chat not only embarrassed myself and my wife but the poor postwomen who then felt obliged to apologise to us. Approx 20 minutes later we had both dusted ourselves off and decided that we would try again as we had been so looking forward to it. So swallowing my pride we headed back this time to find the entrance closed off with straps resembling a nightclub. At this point we decided enough was enough and that we would spend our money elsewhere. Following a lovely lunch at The Crown round the corner we discovered the JW Cockett bakery at the end of road which transpired to supply this tea room so we bought all our cakes from here instead.

We enjoyed a wonderful afternoon tea at Laburnum House. We had pre-booked and were given a warm welcome on arrival. The Tea Room is immaculate throughout and the service was very professional and friendly. The food which was all sourced locally was presented so well in traditional style making it an all round special occasion. We will definitely be returning. Thank you. Diane and David

This place was an absolute find. Tucked away just off the high street. Dog friendly with our own little heated garden room. Service & food fabulous using local products. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful attentive staff, great food ( cake and local cheese), lovely tea. What a wonderful find. Many thanks to the team. Milk bones and fresh water for the dogs

Outstanding! Had the best mushroom soup, accompanied with a deliciously light cheese scone. Chef and front of house polite, pleasant taking time to talk about the locally source produce. We had two dogs and went in the garden room. Would definitely recommend.

Delicious local food , very prompt service and friendly hosts . We shall very definitely come again whenever we are passing

What an amazing find! Absolutely lovely little tea room with a summerhouse at the front for us and our dogs. Even had some doggy biscuits for them. Wonderfully friendly and accommodating staff and brilliant cream tea! My boyfriend had the soup of the day which was also amazing! Would definitely return!!

Just perfect! Atmosphere, cleanliness, presentation, service, staff, food and especially fruit cake with cheese. Gorgeous!

Fabulous service, homemade wonderfully hot, tasty and delicious soup and a warm cheese scone, definitely recommended.

Really lovely cream tea here. There is also a selection of lovely cakes to choose from, but the scones were really light & tasty. We also had savoury cheese scone and opted for an additional cheese and chutney accompaniments 😁 delicious. All local produce too Staff attentive & friendly

We arrived in Hawes with our rather large dog looking for some lunch before going on a hike. Luckily we passed this gem of a cafe on our way to the centre from the car park (it could be easily missed down a side road). Just away from the hustle and bustle of the main street, there were tables outside at the front and we were seated inside. The young man waiting on the tables could not have been more welcoming, especially to our dog Wilf who was given a large bowl of water and some dog treats! The menu is limited but everything was locally sourced and I was so pleased to see gluten free bread for the sarnies. I had some very local Wensleydale cheese that the chef explained was totally fresh, unpasteurised and the only cheese of it's kind. He also let me know that the accompanying chutney contained gluten. My sandwich was a very generous 'triple decker' when it arrived. My husband had a cheddar cheese and ham ciabatta (the ham being locally sourced from the butchers). I was thirsty so it was great that a 'top up' pot of hot water was brought alongside the tea pot. We had a little wait for our food but the waiter popped over to apologise, as did the chef when he brought the food out. The chef also let me know that amongst the incredibly tempting array of cakes there were several gluten free options. The room and tables were pristine, as was the toilet. Both the waiter and the chef were totally charming and I would thoroughly recommend this cafe.

All produce is local and items home made. My mum and I went for tea and cake in the morning, then back again for lunch! Delicious soup and baked goods. Served with lots of interesting information about the local ingredients! Friendly and welcoming service, cute and cosy tea room. Extremely clean. Not a speck or crumb anywhere! Lovel well-kept patio / seating area to the front with gorgeous plants to admire. Would highly recommend!

This place is great find, a champion of local produce. If you’re in Hawes you must try it, you really won’t be disappointed

Every mouthful was delicious, knowing that it was all locally produced even better. Really enjoyed hearing the history of the place - it all added to a special occasion. Afternoon tea here is so much more than the food. Mark & Stuart make you so welcome and nothing is too much trouble. Plenty to eat - in fact we couldn't quite manage it all so were provided with a box to safely bring home the remainder of our tasty treats.

Lovely warm welcome for us and our dogs. The food was made to order with a superb artisan wensleydale cheese in a just cooked baguette. The outside area was beautiful. The dogs welcomed the fresh cool water and gravy bones. Nothing was too much trouble. Would strongly recommend calling in.

Great food & hospitality would recommend a visit. Local home made meats & cheeses & cakes. Try the cheese scones with the upgrade of local cheese & chutney.

Wonderful food served with attention to detail. A highly recommended place to eat. 5⭐️ We had the baguettes that were filled with harissa. Simply wonderful. 😋

Lovely food made to order, and wonderful service. Perfect setting with a beautiful garden. Thank you.

Lovely locally sourced products with fantastic service and very dog friendly with water bowl and dog biscuits on arrival.

Fabulous cafe for a very tasty lunch. We ordered baguettes, one egg mayo and one chicken. These were freshly made and absolutely delicious. They were generously sized with a large portion of crisps on the side. The owners are so friendly and when we left a tip they added it to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance fund as they are passionate about ŕaising money for this very good cause. Would highly recommend.

We visited to have a drink and cake. We had our dog with us and we sat in the garden room which was lovely and private. The cafetières of coffee were spot on and we are very fussy about our coffee! We had marble cake, carrot cake and a Bakewell, all of which were delicious! Our dog was also treated to a couple of dog biscuits. All in all, we will definitely return when we are next in the area.

Just popped in for a coffee, didn’t expect the Michelin star like service and incredible food. We were provided with details of the food and its provenance but most of all it tasted incredible. Don’t miss this cafe if you visit Hawes or the surrounding area.

Enjoyed a lovely coffee and an amazing Yorkshire Scoundrel. Fabulous service and education on local suppliers. Well worth a visit. Highly recommend!

Nice little cafe with great food. Really good service, and lovely staff. Toilets were immaculate. The mushroom soup was the best I've had in years! Beautiful flowers in the tea garden.

Just off the Main Street we found this lovely tea room. Locally sourced cake and cheese with great coffee was a great start to our day exploring the local area. The dogs appreciated the water and biscuits!

We have just returned from having afternoon tea at Laburnum House. We received a very warm welcome from Stuart who showed us to our table. Mark then came in and described the various items and where the produce comes from - all local from Hawes...

All the food was amazing, all locally sourced. Staff provide a Great service. Scones are warm and fresh that day, they are the best scones ever!

Fantastic place to visit while in Hawes. Welcome was first class and as we had a very wet dog we were directed to a small garden room with a view of the flowers at the front of the house. It even had a chandelier 😂....

What a little gem of a,place. We decided to go in and have a coffee and cheese scones. The scones were large, nice and warm. We would go again.

We loved how all of the ingredients were sourced locally, you really could taste the difference. Excellent friendly service, we will definitely come again.

A lovely find on a very damp day, 1 x cream tea & 1 baguette for lunch, just what we needed & a toilet that I can only describe as spotless 👌
