route 59 cafe in Craven

Called in here twice this week 5th and 11th October 2024,on my motorbike,When this cafe is at its busiest(usually a Saturday)Theres a few staff serving/cooking/washing up. On other days when it's quieter especially Monday,tues,thurs,friday(closed weds)there's often only the guy there on his own,today there was only him,I don't know how he manages on his own! Give him and the other staff some respect?and if your grumpy to him then he might be grumpy back,I'd say fair do,s. The breakfast baps are delicious and the latte,s are lovely,plus if you call in don't buy anything and expect to use the toilet then no why should you?Great cafe I will still visit on bike or in car.sit outside or in.Good meeting place.Watch your speed near this cafe too!

Get contact details, videos, photos, opening times and Last minute call in for 2x bacon buttie and 2 latte's. 14 quid... wow Grumpy owner/ server! I took coffee to car it tasted of dishwater very weak and milk was scolded rather than frothed .....within one minute looked like a americano rather than a velvety smooth latte. went back in to ask for another shot of expresso to wake the coffee up...Mr grumpy not happy! I've never had complaints before....err read your own reviews! Asked the nice batista😉 if he wouldn't mind tamping the coffee puck to improve the infusion and give the nice crema layer on the shot.think Mr grumpy was more grumpy! 😧when the 'shot' was drawn it looked like dishwasher so obviously some nasty cheap grind coffee.. If you go to the expense and trouble of installing a coffee machine please learn to use it correctly after all your CUSTOMERS are paying a premium price! After all think of the long journeys the coffee bean has been on to end up in a tatty cafe on the a59! Bacon buttie was average (I'm been generous) but two rashers on on a bap is a bit tight for 4 quid! Asked for mushrooms got growled at couldn't get mushrooms today.....so overall I'll give my experience 9.5 out of 10......oops decimal point in wrong place 0.95 out of 10... Looking through reviews (wish I had done it earlier and saved 14quid!) Mr grumpy will respond to critique in the same manner as he served and how he responds to every negative feedback Lack luster owner doesn't deserve the custom. Look faward to your response

this cafe is brilliant, the waitress with grey hair is so nice (sorry I do not know her name)I go there all the time when I'm out on the bike

Not fair on travellers in need of a loo break. You have to purchase something first. Not a polite service. I left on principal. Too many people have mentioned this same problem even when they've been desperate to go it's not allowed. Rude comments are given in return. It's there for motor bikers. That says it all.

Place feels grubby , cheap margarine on bread buy worst of all was the toilets , fifty dirty and no toilet paper . Never again

Absolutely lovely people, great sense of humour and fantastic food; vegetarian breakfast was delicious 😀

Visited this cafe for a bikers breakfast and was really impressed. They have a sign that says "[this is a bikers cafe - all are welcome but not interested in changing to suit non bikers]" or words to that effect. There were non-bikers there enjoying it just as much as the many bikers. Place is clean; staff are the friendliest folk around, food was great and a whopping cup of lovely coffee for not a lot of money. Biker newspapers to read, loads of parking, outdoor seating as well as the cafe and a wall to sit on too if you like. Brilliant !

Lovely breakfast nice and helpful staff will go again x also have already recommended to friends and family

always lots of interesting bikes pulling in, the tables outside encourage you to share & chat. Audrey & the team work hard to make this an ideal biker cafe

Called in on our way to Harrogate Had two lovely fresh barms and a tea & coffee for £8 good value The lady that runs the cafe is very welcoming it's your typical bikers stop off but welcomes everyone Will definitely return

Nice Cafe popular with bikers but open to all. I've only had your usual brekkie type butties and a drink but these were done well and are reasonably priced. Staff always friendly even when they are busy, they must earn their brass on biker nights.

Have been calling on this cafe for a few years now and the lady owner is very pleasant and provides a good and efficient service. Called in on Thursday 9th May. It was busy but I got a seat. Another couple were serving and I waited to get my order taken. They definitely knew I was waiting but totally ignored me. I gave eye contact as if to say ‘ I’m ready, please take me order’, but to no avail. Walked out in the end. Probably won’t go back unless the other lady is there. Shame. Thought you should know nevertheless.

This cafe is small with a badly laid out but good sized car park. It is on a main but featureless road just outside skipton. It has biker information and notices but is used by a very mixed customer basel. Food is typical fried fare and decent ,if a bit slow when busy. There is a outdoor toilet and you have to ask for the key.

This is probably a bikers Cafe. but not exclusively so. Amazing breakfasts and friendly service. Looking forward to me next visit.

Got to be the smallest cafe in the U.K. just the four tables inside plenty of seating outside , free WiFi hence the bloke on the next table with the laptop and the two hour old coffee , bit of a limited menu offering a number of cooked breakfasts ranging in size with the normal accompanying cooked sandwich’s but shock horror we went for the cheeseburger with bacon which was a bit tasteless, there was a electric heater next to me but there was no heat coming out of it , which was a shame as it was freezing , would I venture back .. probably not

I love this place always a warm welcome and a good bit of banter, bike nights are always a busy time, it’s small but perfectly formed!!!

Popped in for breakfast on our way home from camping weekend. Had a big breakfast and small one, both cooked lovely, portions were good and food very tasty. Great value for money, staff were friendly and will definitely call in again when we’re in the area. Great stop for bikers!

I called into Route 59 after a friend recommended it. Although I only had coffee and a bacon sandwich, both were great quality and reasonably priced. I have to say this is one of the frendliest places I have visited. Audrey and Bobby made us feel like we'd known them for years. If you're passing, drop in. If you're not passing, find an excuse to do so.

Very small place, not much indoor seating.Great service nice people, very friendly. The food is a bit limited but good. The prices are very reasonable. Good meeting place for bikers and a great place to break your journey.

Just passing it again and decided to give it a go as we pass quite often, not very big inside only 4 tables inside 16seats but very clean, all the food is cooked to order didn't look like just warm it up again had the bacon cheese burger with salad and a coffee and a cheese burger no salad with coffee all for less than a £10 so for us we will be giving it another go hopefully we will be on the bike next time.

We called here for lunch as our usual cafe was full up, and had a really nice lunch. The cafe inside is very bijou, but really clean and the staff were friendly and pleasant. Huge thumbs up as they have Quorn bacon and sausages so veggies don't miss out- I had an Eggs Benedict with veggie bacon and it was lovely! My companions' food was also very well received, particularly the locally produced bacon which both praised highly. The choices were a little limited, especially drinks as they were out of orange juice, but with the great value and the friendly service this wasn't a big issue and we would happily return.

Visitamos este café de carretera hace más de un año y quedamos tan impresionados que estábamos decididos a llamar desde la semana pasada a Yorks Lancs. El bacon y huevos y salchichas y sandwiches de huevo eran excelentes, como antes. Selección de comida es muy buena, mesas y vajilla y cubiertos impecablemente limpio, servicio rápido y animado, precios razonables. ¿Qué más se puede pedir. . . . . . . más de lo mismo, por favor!

Great choice of food, well cooked and served by lovely, friendly staff at reasonable rpices. What's no to like!

Oímos mucho acerca de este lugar, decidimos hacer un viaje. . Está bien situado para bici a, pedí un té y un butty, tocino y huevos después de unos minutos de sentado al sol mi butty fue traído. . . me encantó. . Ha sido dos veces ya.. Buena biker conocer.. . . pruébalo

Venido aquí por un tiempo, casi 30 millas de casa y tengo, y le acabo de volver el lugar en el desayuno que hacen, la gente que lo dirige, y el ecléctico gente que visita.

Route 59 is rather small but spotlessly clean and smart. The menu is simple and includes typical cafe fare as well as a couple of surprises with eggs Benedict and eggs Royale. The prices are very reasonable and the food we had was very good.

Called today for breakfast while on my own and only one person waiting before me arrived at 11am the customer before me got his food at 11.20 he eat his food and said to me goodluck on his way out I got my breakfast at 11.33 so I waited for 33 minutes when the cafe was quite I wasn't even offerd a refill coffee due to the long waite food was good but won't call again

Hizo nuestro primer viaje esta noche, ya que era una "noche de moteros". Estupendo ver y charlar con tantos como folk acotado. Ambiente muy agradable y muy buena para ver muchos de los jinetes señora (mi esposa encuentra un poco intimidante Devils Bridge a veces). Esperamos la próxima visita ya.

Stopped on the way to Harrogate Flower Show with my mum. The lady behind the counter was friendly and efficient and the cafe had a nice feel to it. My coffee and toast were lovely and i wouldn't hesitate to go back

good cafe for us bikers, very biker friendly, give it a go its on a good bike road a59 tuesday nights bike nite till about 8pm. but bikers always wecome. paul o/

Called here a couple of weeks back, had a breakfast which was excellent, the only small complaint was that it was margarine / spread that was on my toast and not butter, get some proper butter, it makes all the difference.Had cake and coffee also which was excellent.The service was friendly and efficient.Recommended

We have breakfast here on a regular basis, best coffee for miles around. Always made to feel welcome

Two of us on the bikes called in Cafe 59 whilst on a 120 mile round trip. Having been earlier this year we decided to make another visit. We received a friendly welcome and had tea with sausage butties. A good biker snack. The food is always excellent and we will definately be back.

Call about once a month as a half way stop to visit family. Always a smile and a chat plus gorgeous bacon/egg/sausage etc butties.

Stopped here by chance as were on our camping holiday. Great little place, friendly, good service, good food and very in-expensive. Well worth a stop. Great to see the bikers coming in too.Make sure you stop - even if only for a coffee - worth it.

Good food & service, home cooked food, clean, covered seating outside, limited tables inside. toilet

Nice little bike run have a coffee with friends go home gets you out for a couple of hours sell nice food haven't had any myself but seen it I think the prices are a little bit on the expensive side but all in all it's good

A real find and the staff are very friendly. The food and drink are excellent value for money and all home cooked. Try the scones

5 of us called a couple sundays ago before we went up to hawes and settle on the bikes, very nice bacon sandwiches and matching owners too....fully recommended

We called in after visiting the Yorkshire moors. Cracking little place. Can not fault the place well done.

Fabulous little place on the A59 just outside Skipton. Spotless. Grand bacon butty. And they loved our little dog. Free WIFI. Will be back.

Pleasant service, very good value, efficient and relaxed. We had the very tasty soup and some lovely americano coffees at a very surprisingly low price! This road stop deserves to flourish please give it a try, it's no greasy spoon. I tried a pie that was excellent with gravy.

On a trip back from Harrogate to Preston we called in on the off chance we could get a drink. It was all the things yo want from a cafe - clean, pleasant, fresh cooked food and low prices. Run by a lovely lady who made us and everyone else feel special. A tea and a coffee freshly made for £2.80. What a bargain. No wonder there was regulars having lunch.
