We are a group three couples who stumbled across this lovely cafe whilst walking the Hartwith Round. The coffee and all the cakes were absolutely delicious served by a very welcoming and friendly face. It is in an idyllic location and I would do the walk again just to enjoy this little cafe. A little gem of a place which puts some warmth into your heart.

This fab cafe is such a welcome place right on the Nidderdale Way. We couldn't believe it when we saw it and what a welcome you receive. Great cakes and tea and it is run by really lovely people. We sat their for ages and also took cakes to go. Can't rate it highly enough. Only accessible to walkers and cyclists. No cars!! All seating is outside so perfect in the current environment

Discovered this smashing cafe en route to Brimham Rocks from Smelthouses. Great friendly service, tea, cake and Marshfield Farm ice cream. So pleased to find this on my 11 mile walk. And pooch friendly with their own ice cream product available!!

If your out & about, walking in Nidderdale then you just have to call in at Smeltbakes for a much deserved treat. The cakes are all homemade and absolutely delicious. No scrimping on the sizes either, you get a treat to support all that walking. Along with the cakes, you can enjoy a Tea, Coffee or can of pop, pies that are made in the local butchers and even a treat for your furry friend in the form of dog ice-cream. Katie (who owns the business and bakes all the luscious cakes) is brilliant and will ensure you have the best visit possible. This place is definitely one that you need to visit.

We are regular visitors to Smeltbakes. There are lots of lovely walks in the area that can be tweaked to include a visit - and a promised trip to Smeltbakes is the only way that we can drag our kids out for a walk without grumbling. The cakes are always delicious (let them know in advance if you need a gluten-free option) and we love a rummage in the book stall/swap. Cannot recommend highly enough. All the tables are outside, so no problems with social distancing. There's no parking at Smeltbakes, so either walk, ride or cycle - or park up the main road and walk down from there.

I've been visiting this amazing little place for a while .. The foods incredible as is the setting... But what sets it apart is the owner. She is so friendly and makes me and lola the labrador feel so welcome, even special.. The book swap is a brilliant idea and I would recommend visiting to anyone. There are not many places left like this..

We discovered this little gem whilst on a walk from Brimham Rocks to Patley Bridge. The service was fantastic as were the scrumptious cakes. Definitely worth stopping. They also had a free water bottle top up point! Really good value.

If you’re walking or cycling near Pateley Bridge, this is the perfect re-fuelling station. Fabulous cakes and refreshments, and such friendly hosts. Can’t recommend Smeltbakes highly enough!

We popped to Smeltbakes today and the Chocolate Brownie and Tiffin are to die for. The owners are so nice, friendly and welcoming. I’d definitely recommend people go and visit them when walking the #nidderdaleway or #brimhamrocks

Fabulous little bakery on the Nidderdale way, perfect for walkers and cyclists (and doggies too) If you are doing the Way of The Roses Cycle route then you should definitely consider a tiny detour for a scheduled stop here. We had the privilege of stopping in a cottage a few hundred yards away, which meant we were able to visit twice in the weekend. The homemade cakes were fabulous, great portions, great value for money and great quality home baking. There is frozen yoghurt for your doggies, peanut butter and banana is the flavour to go for, my two loved it. Katie gave us some great local tips too and was a real pleasure to talk to. We can’t wait to return the next time we are in the area.

Stumbled across this little gem on a long & soggy walk. Revived with lovely cakes & coffee & a warm welcome!

Katie is a wonderful host at this unexpected gem on the Nidderdale way, just outside Smelthouses. All of the cakes we tried were freshly made and delicious. Incredibly good value for money and a real treat!

Interesting food in this Albanian restaurant - much of it familiar to those who like Italian or Greek cuisine. Some more unusual dishes. Handy for station and bus station.

Absolutely fabulous food at Mykonos Bar & Grill. A little bit out of the way but well worth the short walk. Tasty, great service, and good value for money. I would highly recommend.

Nice local wine bar, but a bit pricey in real Harrogate style.
