Mrs Smith's Cafe in Harrogate

As my wife and myself arrived in the cafe we where greeted by Sarah the new owner who was very helpful in helping us choose from their menu, the food that came was fantastic cooked by the resident chef Ian, what followed was so surprising both my self and my wife where nearly in tears, Sarah had sent out for a bouquet of flowers for Jane, after just coming out of hospital, which was just fantastic Thank you to Sarah you are one in a million we wish you the very best Christmas for you and your family 👪 all our love and best wishes from us to you 😊 😀 ❤ xxxxx

it is with great sadness that Mrs Smith's has had to close due to the current circumstances hopefully Phillipa will open again once this has blown over, we need you back with the community and open, we are all lost without you being here to cheer our day, please do not despair we THE CUSTOMERS will always return to you whenever possible a BIG thank you from all us, your customers until we meet again please pass on our best wishes to all your staff and sir rob

Lovely family friendly cafe on Jennyfields. Play area for the kids inside with toys and games for them to enjoy. Beautiful coffees and teas made with care and taste beautiful. Food is beautiful. 3 years old today and going from strength to strength. Ate from the birthday menu today and tried a giant Yorkshire pudding full English. Sounds bizarre but it works so well. Wife had a local butchers steak burger which was beautiful. Very friendly staff and good fair prices. A must visit in Harrogate area and don't be put off by the fact it's not town centre. Tons of free parking outside.

While the Smith family where away, the staff put on a performance like no other, the cafe was( most times full) to spilling point, the atmosphere was booming, there where plenty of laughs to be had, but even with so many people arriving and leaving the staff coped really well under pressure, like a well oiled cog Mrs smith you have got a great team of people with whom you would agree all deserve that extra cup of tea, god bless all who eat/drink in there

Excellent local cafe, independent and offering high quality local produce and at reasonable prices. Great for families and dogs welcome.

we often go here for breakfast, it is a small family run business, with great staff, who are so attentive to your needs and wants, it is a complete enjoyment from the moment you step inside to the minute you leave, friendly staff great food nice atmosphere the best of all is Phillipa who tries her best to get to know her customers, so she can cater for everyone's needs cant wait until next visit

I’ve been here a couple of times and the food is really lovely, staff are friendly and brilliant for young children. The toy corner was larger than I expected and plenty to keep younger children entertained. Plenty of high chairs available. Overall, an excellent place to eat with children and it’s reasonably priced too. On one occasion, I ordered my little boy the sausages, Yorkshire puddings etc and it came as a giant Yorkshire pudding filled with everything else. On another occasion, I ordered the same meal for him but it was a small Yorkshire pudding on the side and a few other differences between the first time we ordered it. Still tasted lovely on both occasions.

This cafe is a brilliant addition to the Jennyfields community. It is a hub of the estate and does a really good job of welcoming and serving their customers. We love going in for a coffee, breakfast or lunch - and use any excuse to visit! Lovely staff and tasty food, with good portion sizes!

We live locally so visit Mrs Smith’s regularly with our grandchildren - who for some unknown reason refer to this as the “Peppa Pig Cafe”! There are lots of toys for the children to play with and the service is friendly, serving a good variety of fresh, local food. Warmly recommended if you are in the area!

I visited here with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law as they recommended it. The decor was cute and quirky and the staff were friendly. The food was delicious and the hot chocolate was particularly wonderful. Will be going back again!

I'm lucky enough to live locally to this lovely cafe and rest assured it's a hidden gem. Family friendly does not mean they've detracted from quality. The food is superb and predominately locally sauce and home made bread to boot. Yes they may have days where they are snowed under so perhaps might not be dancing and laughing at the moment when you enter...And yes there maybe a wait for food at busy times. However...remember this is a relatively new,small family run establishment,with a small dedicated team...doing their very best. They are open to suggestions and will do their very best to accommodate your requests. Food is mainly cooked to order and I'd rather wait for fresh than be served in 5 minutes with "plastic" food. An extremely good choice of food and the aim on healthy eating on many items so will accommodate those watching their weight. Equally all food is delicious for those not so conscious and a stunning array of homemade cakes to choose from too. They also offer a superb slimming world style breakfast, amongst other things...which is beautiful and syn free. Recently they have added a slimming world friendly take away menu for the summer. Meals freshly prepared and either completely syn free or so negliable its not countable. Ive had curry, kebabs, chiken kiev, enchiladas, kfc and many others. All syn free and slimming world friendly. (They are not affiliated by sw..but Mrs Smith follows the plan herself). This is a wonderful idea and one I sincerely hope they continue after Summer too. They have a lovely small, but very well catered children's area and host many parties for all ages requiring a smaller more intimate environment. As well as this they hold different themed activities and groups for children and adults ad hoc, and well thought out. My advice is give them a try a couple of times. Enjoy the rest and you will love the food. Plenty of parking and on a bus route too. Perfect for families as few places (if any in this area) offer what's here in terms of play area with plenty to do and no nasty stares if they get a little loud... dont spoil it for other people though. They are not a creche and other people without children like to relax too. My advice

My wife and I dropped in for a coffee and snacks on our way to town. What an atmosphere! No welcome, just cool stares! Why does a cafe think these days that all they have to do is provide food, when the overall friendly service should just as important as good food quality. We will not be going back as there are many other cafes around which have much better overall offering.

Been a loyal customer since Mrs Smiths opened. Great food reasonably priced Lots of slimming world options. No deep fat fryer all grilled. Plenty of option for even the fussiest of dinners Great play area for kids.

Lovely little place. Highly recommended. Great staff and I loved the bacon butties. Really nice! Yum.

We had heard great things from friends so decided to make a detour which proved well worth it. Mrs Smith is a lovely person with a great sense of humour, nothing was too much trouble and the food was great, generous helpings and very tasty. The cakes looked to tempting and tasted as good as they looked Highly recommended

Lovely family friendly atmosphere, great coffee and very pleasant staff. I suspect this is going to become a regular for me!

Great place to have a coffee and something on the side whilst catching up with friends. Top notch! Will visit again next time I am in the area.

Stopped off purely by chance. Excellent service, very family friendly and overall a very warm and cozy place to stop for a bite.

Such a friendly welcome, whole family enjoyed the bacon sandwiches. Great that they use local suppliers for fresh produce.

Often stop in here for coffee and cake with my friends after shopping. Mrs Smith's cakes are absolutely delicious! Would definitely recommend :D

Called in a few days ago, the staff were lovely, food was delicious with plenty to choose from. Will return.

Great quality food in a lovely family friendly environment- you can really see that the owners care you enjoy your experience. Will definitely come again if we're passing through again!

Popped in to this place with the wife on a visit up North, what a cracking little find. Lovely decor, welcoming atmosphere and the cherry on top, was the wife loved the place (she doesn't like many). She has a nut allergy, we informed the staff and a helpful and friendly lady popped over to discuss our requirements. In no time flat we were presented with a delicious meal and a freshly brewed coffee to wash it all down with. Smashing place.

A lack of bacon in butty.... two poor quality slices in an over sized cheap bun! Won't be returning expected more

Lovely homemade food, the soup was lush. There is real attention to detail on all levels. Lots for little ones to do whilst you enjoy your coffee. Will be back soon.

Love Mrs Smith's! Great space for all - perfect when visited with kids and babies, and perfect when came with friends for coffee. Food delicious, reasonably priced, FAB cakes, great service, loads of parking. Caters for all inc veggie/vegan/slimmers. Phillipa, Mrs Smith, is lovely too!

My family and I love Mrs Smith's cafe as it's staff are so accommodating, it has a great play area to keep my 2 kids happy whilst I can relax and chat with friends. Great coffee, cake and lunches.

Me and my son often visit Mrs Smiths on a Friday after swimming and are always so impressed by how accommodating the staff are, how yummy the food is, and how inspirational the space is. We love the toy area, and how chilled out the staff are when there's toys everywhere!!!

I love cake. Mrs Smith's sells some of the most amazing cake I have ever experienced. Whether you need somewhere quiet to work or have kids with you, the cafe is really well designed for everyone. There's a children's play space discreetly tucked out of the way, so your children can play safely and happily while you eat cake. Or lunch. Or a bacon butty. And when you are without children you can enjoy cake, and a really fabulous coffee (Rountons, a local roaster) without feeling like you are in a cafe full of other people's kids. There aren't many cafes that achieve both child friendly and grown up friendly. But Mrs Smith's really really does. And did I mention the cake? It's amazing. And there's icecream too... It's like a tiny bit of paradise, a great place to enjoy a catch up with friends and relax.

This really is the best coffee in the Harrogate district and the home made cakes are marvellous too.

I've been to Mrs Smith's cafe a few times now with family and friends. The food and drink have been consistently delicious and very reasonably priced and the staff are really patient with the children..... it is a nice place for busy mums to relax over coffee (& cake!) whilst the kids enjoy playing in the toy corner. Thank you Mrs Smiths!

My 3 year old loves playing with all the toys. The staff are friendly and really helpful. The food is delicious! I'm trying to eat healthily (Slimming World) and the staff were able to guide me and make my food exactly how I wanted it. My new favourite cafe!

As we were going to a wedding early afternoon we decided we needed a good breakfast to set us up for the day - Mrs Smith did not let us down. Full English consisted of sausage, bacon, egg, mushrooms, beans & tomato plus toast (very nice gluten free for me). All ingredients were of very good quality. My only comment is that the toast came already buttered, I prefer mine dry with breakfast but next time I will remember to ask for it without butter and there will certainly be a next time.

Amazing cafe. Great menu and the food is delicious with some lovely healthy choices as well as amazing cakes! Will be back...lots!

Excellent breakfast choices and a fantastic place to to eat. Thorough enjoyed the antipasto from the special menu and I would recommend it for anyone with small children as the play area is fantastic.

Harrogate's family friendly cafe. Homemade, delicious food with slimming plan friendly options. Rounton coffee, Storm Tea and Kokoa Collection hot chocolates. Fantastic home made cakes. Toys and children's facilities. Great for meeting friends, for all the family or if you just want to pop in for a solo visit everyone receives a warm welcome.
