Parcevall Hall Tea Room in Craven

Lovely place and so helpful supporting our plans to celebrate our friends Birthday here as part of a longer circular walk . Thank you for being kind to cater for me ur party of 10 . A lovely sunny June day allowed us to sit outside in the lovely courtyard too.

Lovely place to eat. Very nice staff serving excellent food. I had the sausage roll and salad, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Wonderful setting for a coffee after a walk round the most beautiful gardens The brownie was the best I’ve ever had and there were so many flavour choices Superb staff, so friendly and helpful The perfect way to end a wonderful visit

We came here on Monday and we’re surprised to find it so busy. It is popular with walkers and our last visit was some years ago when we walked up Simon’s Seat. There was only one person serving so she had a task on to serve everyone. We chose a quiche served with salad and coleslaw. I would say the coleslaw was the best I have ever tasted; amazing! Luckily without onions. Out of sheer greed we chose a cake to share. The walnut cake tasted delicious. I think this place may get pretty busy at the weekend.

Very nice spot, prices on the high side. 2 cakes, 2 teas and a sandwich £20. Cakes very similar slices and brownies but no scones!!! No prices displayed in the tea room, service was a bit chaotic and slow but … if you are going there it’s for the day out so you’ll probably forgive all that!

‘Love Brownies’ now operate the tea room on behalf of the gardens. The menu is very limited with the only food consisting of a limited choice of packaged sandwiches and various brownies. Sandwich choices may disappear altogether if you are planning to eat early afternoon. Nice location with lovely rural views and toilets but not a destination in itself for teas..

We went to the cafe after touring the garden and we expected there to be food. We were told in a fairly abrupt manner 'no sandwiches, just brownies and drinks' So after a cup of tea and a packet of crisps, we travelled to Grassington to get some lunch. Found an excellent cafe with friendly staff and great food. So give the tea room only and no food available a miss Very disapponting, especially as the garden is so wonderful

This is a Beautiful Small Attractive Tearoom and what a lovely spot the Staff looked after us well and greeted us with warmth feeling it well welcoming this so great walkers hikers and visitors will not be disappointed it defiantly a must. The Coffee and Home made Cakes were divine.

Parcevall Hall is a retreat house and an attractive place with a peaceful garden (entrance fee!) and a great attraction for walkers and cyclists. It is at the end of a narrow cul-de-sac road, not recommended for big vehicles! The tearoom is small and welcoming with a good menu and outside tables for a sunny day. The business is due to close at the end of September according to notices. That's disappointing !

WE visited this team room during our tour of Parcevall Hall Gardens. This facility, which has clean and well kept toilets at the back, has outside seating near or underneath fruit trees as well as little tables inside. At busy times, such as when we were there, it might pay to sit outside as the inside can get cramped if occupied by a large group or family. We ordered cold drinks, various sandwiches and cake, everything was beautifully prepared and presented and it tasted so good after a tiring day climbing up and down the gardens. The bill when it came was very reasonable. The team room had a great atmosphere, staff were very friendly and helpful and we would definitely recommend anyone visiting the gardens to take a break here. Lovely little place.

Parcevall Hall Gardens is a lovely place to visit and the tea room is a great asset. Dogs are welcome everywhere in the garden and woodland areas but sadly not in the tea room, although there is outside seating. I would have given the cafe full marks if they could have provided an americano coffee but only offer filter or cafetière. The food was lovely and some of the choices creative. Just a warning for anyone driving there in a larger vehicle. We were in a motor home which is only 6m long but because we approached from the B6265 we nearly got caught on the tight left hand turn on a steep junction on the minor road leading to the Hall. A motor home with a longer overhang would probably get stuck. Best to arrive from the direction of Burnsall.

Quite small with some outside seating serving some decent and freshly prepared food. Dogs welcome outside but not in so OK if the weather is fine. Toilets available at back of cafe.

We have often driven past the road signs to this place but always on our way somewhere else. This year we vowed to try out the gardens– and instantly regretted putting our visit off for so long. Set in the heart of Wharfedale not far from Appletreewick they have a beauty that combine both formality and wildness in a remarkable way. Parcevall Hall Gardens are the creative work of the late Sir William Milner and what a vision he had. Starting with a building in a dilapidated state standing on a hillside devoid of trees, he created terraces, rose, rock and chapel gardens and a shelter of trees, overlooking Simon’s Seat and Wharfedale. But that’s not all. From the foot of the 24 acres you climb through woodland walks, wild flowers, a tarn, becks, bridges – ascending - until finally you are the top of the hillside where the wildness of the Yorkshire Dales spreads out before you, overlooking Trollers Gill. A perfect climax on a perfect sunny day. And don’t forget the fields of bluebells. After all that this intimate tea room and café is an oasis of inside and outside seating. The service is friendly and efficient, the choice of food surprising wide and varied for such an out of the way and small operation. And he prices are very reasonable.

After a long walk, we stopped for lunch. A really sweet little tea room with space for about 16 covers. Extra seating outside. Immaculately clean and well presented. The menu offers two home made soups (delicious), filled rolls and a range of tea cakes, home made cakes and biscuits, as well as hit and cold drinks. Service was impeccable and prices reasonable.

When you visit a relatively remote garden surrounding an Elizabethan hall, ,you might hope to find some sort of refreshments, but it's a rare treat to visit a friendly, attractive tearoom serving delicious gluten free cakes that are homemade and safe to eat. Parceval Hall's tearoom is situated in the most peaceful, wonderful place, and is absolutely the icing on the cake. Do make sure, if you visit, to take time to relax in the gardens, and soak up the atmosphere before treating yourself!

Had soup and sandwich, tea and cake in the sheltered cafe garden before walking around the estate. Food was tasty and fresh. Pleasant young person serving.

Lovely place to visit as beautiful gardens to explore and excellent walking opportunities in the area.Great menu choice for light lunch or cake. I really enjoy their coffee cake but always find the food very good. Excellent coffee too.It is a popular place so sometimes hard to get a table.

only small so could be busy at weekends. lovely staff, very attentive. outside sitting area. well worth a stop

The food and drinks were lovely and we sat out enjoying the sunshine & the view of the hills in a garden. The facilities to sit inside & outside make this a great place to visit regardless of the weather. Staff really good and friendly.

A welcome mid point relief stop for tea, cake, a water refill and the loo after a long walk in hot weather.

Visited mid week on a beautiful summer's day. Managed to get a table on the patio (there is indoor and outdoor seating)....such a lovely setting. Service was fast and friendly. We had sandwiches which were made to order and very tasty. Called in again for cake before we left the Hall......very nice indeed! Worth a visit.

It pains me to write a review a like this but we went to the Tea Room today before our walk in the gardens. I am a great fan of scones with jam and clotted cream and was looking forward to having one here. When my fruit scone arrived, it was dry, tasteless and almost stale. Thank goodness for the cup of tea to help wash it down. The staff are friendly but spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Today was probably an "off" day compared to all the other positive reviews on here.

Stopped off for drinks and scones absolutely gorgeous and superb value for money... We sat in the garden and the young man who served us was lovely very personable and nothing was too much trouble...

Really enjoyed our visits to the Team Room as part of our trip to the Gardens - lovely Date/Ginger Scones with Jam and Cream on the way up and later Hot Chocolate on the way back down - staff friendly and helpful

My husband, 8 year old daughter, & I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon tea here. The soups & sandwiches were fantastic. We loved the tea & desserts as well. We each tried something different & sampled each other's selections- everything was good! We highly recommend this lovely tea room!

Called in on our walk from Howell Lodge. There was a wide choice of cakes and all reasonably priced. Really enjoyed our mid morning snack.

Just to say we came here on Bank holiday Monday. We were lucky to get outdoor seating. Both myself and housemate very much enjoyed the sandwiches. i enjoyed the delicious tuna with lemon mayo in a fresh wholemeal bun with welcome side salad/coleslaw and crisps. Housemate had no complaints with his cheese and tomato bun either. It was a busy day and the young waitress had her hands full but she was friendly and always smiling to ourselves. Thank you.

We all piled in for drinks & cake before our walk around the gardens. Nice selection of cakes & sandwiches.

good experience with the family, would recommend to friends and family with any aged children. nice cake.

Having visited the gardens, where else would you go on a glorious, sunny day than the tea room? With its own delightful garden and extensive choices of snacks and drinks, this rounded off a perfect visit. By the way - do try the milk shake with ice cream - it's great!

We had a light lunch here & were delighted with the quality & service. We spent an hour in the garden, had lunch, a couple more hours in the garden & back for afternoon tea. Not the cheapest place but worth every penny.

I visited tea rooms with my husband after a lovely walk. We sat in the gardens as it was a warm day. The waitress came to take our order. But as it was after 4pm they had stopped serving food, so we decided just to have a drink. Our order was taken along with several other tables. We waited 45 minutes for two cold drinks. Everyone that arrived at the same time as we did or after us was served. You can't tell me the waitress couldn't manage two small bottles on a tray for another table. We were ignored for almost and hour. In the end we just left. I have no idea why we were treated so badly. Was it because we were not your typical white/British customer that normally visits here. We will not be visiting again. The attitude was appalling.

I am looking forward to returning to the Tea Room again to sample some more from the menu. The cakes were fabulous.

We went twice,;last week, it was so good friendly nice menu not cheap but you get what you pay for. Recommend the gardeners lunch and the ginger beer is local and superb. gets busy and a bit crowded but worth the wait

This is one of the loveliest afternoon teas I've had and if it wasn't such a long way from where we lived I would go back there often! It was quite simple and not fussy with delicious sandwiches, a slice of yummy homemade cake and a home made scone that was perfect with jam and cream served with tea or coffee.It was reasonably priced and the service was great with a couple of young girls who were helpful, courteous and efficient! You could sit inside or outside if you wish..

Just what you need after wandering around the gardens. Parcevall Hall Gardens Tea Room serves a variety of very tasty, and freshly made food.

Had coffee and an excellent scone before our visit to the beautiful gardens. Varied menu, reasonably priced. The young lady who served us was very pleasant, courteous and made us very welcome.

Lovely inside and out. Busy but we managed to get a seat outside, Really tasty and well presented sandwiches. Topped off with lemon drizzle cake. Worked for me.

I had an afternoon tea think it was £7.95 here which came with sandwiches a scone and choice of cake (we chose coffee) really delightful, perfectly fresh sandwiches too i could tell it had been made to order, would visit again.

Nice but not a great variety of food or snacks. Always disappointing when a poor bit of salad and a few crisps are put on the side of a plate. Young staff were attentive.

Nice food although slightly over priced for what you get. Lovely outdoor seating with gorgeous views, but the staff are inefficient and unfriendly.

You have earned a delightful break after clambering about the gorgeous dales gardens,and here it is. The tea room is so well managed,and the service delightful.

Lovely location. Lovely menu with some unusual choices- more than your average tea room. Lovely staff. Very obliging.

This is a tearoom at the entrance to Parcevall Hall Gardens and you can call in whether you are visiting or not. It is small and even midweek can get full. I suppose this is a testament to the quality of the food but It can be disappointing if you cannot find room. There is an inside seating area and small patio area. When we arrived it took some time to be served. I'm not sure why as it wasn't busy then, but I think there was one person in the kitchen and one waiting on. It is table service and there is a sign saying to be patient. On the day we visited it was due to close early (3.30pm) but I'm not sure why as it is generally open later. All the food I saw looked good - we had sandwiches and tea and the sandwiches were served with a few crisps and garnish. There was one choice of bread - a soft brown breadbun. I think groups can book but I would be a little disgruntled if this happened and there was no room for other visitors. I don't know if there is another room for groups as at some places I've visited. One of the questions later in this review process asks if it is wheelchair accessible. Yes, I suppose so but I doubt there is no room inside as the tables are too close together

This is a small cafe at a modest location, but to us it rates above its class - it offers quite a good choice of items both sweet and savoury, with quite unusual ones such as melted cheese and herb crumpets with salad. There are quite a few gluten-free options available. Food is of good quality, and offers good value for money, in a pleasant and very clean environment.

The Tea Room shares a little row of cottages with the plant shop and garden office at the entrance to this wonderful garden. Given the hilly profile of the place, I rewarded myself with a brew and a scone at the end of my walk. Although Parcevall Hall feels quite isolated, it can attract quite a crowd and the cafe isn't very large. I was lucky enough to get the only available table on the stone terrace next to the plant shop. This overlooks a neat lawn and the approach road over Skyreholme Beck. Service was a little stretched on a very busy day but was always friendly. The tea and scone were both enjoyable.

Lovely small teashop near Appletreewick in the Yorkshire Dales. It is open every day in summer and you can visit it without paying to go into Parcevall Hall gardens. It's quite small inside, but warm and cosy in bad weather, and there is a good sheltered terrace area outside next to a lawn with apple trees. The food is home cooked and very good. I recommend the cafetiere of coffee but be careful as hot milk costs extra for some strange reason.

When you've done the gardens, or maybe even before you set off into them, be sure to call here. A delightful little tea room, with space outside if the weather permits. Loads of lovely homemade cakes and fine ladies to serve these to you in a friendly way. They happily kept open for us their final customers today. A tasty treat

It was cosy, pleasant and not expensive and set us up for a great visit to the Hall. We enjoyed Soup and a sandwich very much

smashing little tearoom in a good setting all home cooked fare also they sell small plants at certain times of the year

Myself and my husband found this tea room by accident after heading to Appletreewick and it being too busy for us to stop. We went down the road to parcevall hall to have a little look and found the tearoom. We sat inside but there are lots of seats outside. We only had tea and cake and hot crumpets. But all was lovely and the staff nice and cheery even tho they were having to deal with some petty customers that really were nit picking over little things like they didn't have enough milk or butter which was all rectified very easily with more brought by the lovely waitress. Not really a big problem but you can't please everyone. If you are in that area give it a try.

Very hectic at busy times. It is very small and hopefully with good weather you can sit outside in the garden.

Lovely little cottage setting, just the place to relax and take in the view befor setting off to drive home. Had tea and a scone, proper Yorkshire tea too loved it.

After a highly enjoyable walk around the beautiful gardens, we went to the tearoom to finish off our visit. It was very disappointing after such a wonderful walk. The waitress was harassed because it was busy and was quite curt with both existing customers and those arriving to be seated. In spite of there being free tables she was discouraging their use with promises of a long wait. When our food did arrive, the apple juice had mould on it and the salad leaves were past their best.....obvious if more time and attention had been paid to the presentation process. It seems to me that if you can't provide a courteous and timely service because there are too many customers, either you employ more staff or you reduce the number of tables to a manageable number. The unwelcoming manner and shoddy food presentation would leave me to suggest you go elsewhere for light refreshment, once you have visited the stunning gardens. Try the Old School Tearooms or Buffers, each just a short ride away.

Enjoyed a tasty salad here on the sheltered terrace in the sunshine before exploring the gardens. Would be a lovely place for afternoon tea or morning coffee also I amagine.

Parcevall Hall tea room has a small tea rooms which serves cakes, hot drinks, sandwiches and so on. It is set in glorious countryside north of Appletreewick.
