The best coffee in York! The staff are the sunniest baristas I have ever met. I also highly recommend the walnut, pecan, and banana loaf.

Called in a few weeks ago on a Sunday morning for coffee and cake. Staff very friendly, and whilst the cakes were tasty, and coffee nice, we felt it was fairly falsely advertised just how much of the menu was vegan. If we'd known how much of the produce was vegan, we'd have gone elsewhere but we only realised once we'd ordered. As non vegans, we left feeling we'd had someone else's vegan views pushed on us somewhat.

A really good place for coffee and cake! The prices are average for the area but the quality is quite high. The staff are friendly and it's a genuinely welcoming and comfortable place to relax and enjoy a drink and a bite to eat. A lot of the bakes are vegan, so whilst I can't say the Victoria Sponge was the best I've ever had outright, it was certainly the best vegan Victoria Sponge I've ever had, and I'd happily go back for another slice!

I live too close to this place, I don't drink coffee but the cakes are soooo lovely, just had a carrot cake and it made me want to do a review. Also super friendly staff which is always nice. Also I was put off by 'vegan cakes' but that was dumb because its all really good.

Honestly one of the best pain au raisins I’ve ever had (and that includes ones I’ve had in Paris)! The key difference is the pastry is just ever so slightly spiced, including I think whatever the raisins were soaked in, and that just makes the flavours really pop. Coffee is fantastic too! Update: I literally dreamed about this place last night, if you need any more evidence!

The cinnamon buns are dangerously delicious, and (thank all the gods), they just happen not to contain anything animal, which means I can eat them and not just stare at them. Incredible. Fluffy, with an ever so slightly crispy top, and just the right amount of sugar crystal whatnots to give an occasional crunch. Perfect balance of cardamom and cinnamon, fluffy, light, and perfect in every way. I'd ideally like to be handed a bag of six on a daily basis, and by six I mean twenty.

My husband had a very similar experience to a previous poster which makes me think this is definitely a shop that isn’t keen on unfamiliar faces & has gotten a bit big for its boots. We stay in the Bishopthorpe Road area often at the campsite round the corner. My husband went to grab me some breakfast from there this morning. First time round he was sent away till 10am as no food was ready (it was 9.30 ) but did purchase a very small £3.50 coffee. When he returned at 10 he too was greeted in a very unfriendly way, order was taken & he was also sent outside to wait, for 20 mins! Might I add it was also very cold. Why they couldn’t have taken his order at 9.30 and had it ready at 10 I do not know. Or even told him it would be a long wait. He was definitely made to feel uncomfortable. He was just trying to get me a nice breakfast & ended up being treated rudely & snobbishly. All in all a bad experience, food was also mediocre for the price.

Put simply, if you value good coffee then S&R is essential to Bishy Road. It is where us locals go, day after day after day and we have a lot of choice. Yes it is small, but the coffee is worth it (and ignore the small coffee reviews, they just add less milk - the coffee is so much better). As they say, you get what you pay for and this is great. The cakes are also ace - salted caramel brownie in particular but also the flapjacks and cakes. We love it.

I was in the Bishopthorpe Road area and was looking for a place to grab coffee quickly. I saw this place had a couple of people queuing outside so thought the coffee must be decent. The two parties in front of me were served at the little table area where payment is made, they waited whilst they got their coffees and food. Then it came to being my turn.. I was greeted in a stand-off ish way, I’m guessing this was probably due to me dressing all in a tracksuit after the gym, combined with a face mask, but I’m speculating. My order was taken and instead of waiting where everyone else had for their order I was sent around the corner to wait, I definitely felt uncomfortable at this point and had a different experience to those served before me. Then when my coffee was passed to me through a side window, it was immediately closed once I had the coffee. No offer of sugar or a napkin and no thanks or have a nice day. Felt very awkward and judged, not a nice experience. Coffee was okay at best too.

I love this place. Love, love, love. The two folks who run it are really friendly, their coffee is really good and changes occasionally, their cakes though. The cakes are where it's at. They have some they get in from elsewhere like croissants etc from the Haxby bakery but if you're going to S&R don't get those - get their babka buns in the morning if they still have any. They're like sweet bread rolls all twisted up with sugary syrup and they look like they'll be dry but they are so soft and squishy, tearing them apart is delightful. They're vegan too, and they have a huge range of vegan cakes, muffins, etc. They do sandwiches but I've not tried those because cake!

This establishment has really thought through how to continue to offer their truly delicious coffee in Social Distancing times.

They serve, maybe, the best cake known to man. Certainly the best cake known to me. It’s a coffee cake with salted caramel and it was so moist and a pleasure with each bite...BUT, you knew the but was coming based on my rating... I’m unsure why the cup size is smaller than every other cafe in the city. Is this a money saving method? I was deflated by this and not sure whether or not that’s what soured the taste of the latte too.

Mientras estaba sentado comiendo un delicioso desayuno con champiñones, aguacate y tostadas halloumi, tuve la sensación de que estaba sentado comiendo en el comedor de una familia el domingo por la mañana, tal era el buen carácter, la sensación amistosa con historias contadas y niños leyendo historias. No me malinterpreten, tuve que ponerme los auriculares porque me estaban aburriendo pero, sin embargo, era una sensación cálida en ese pequeño y acogedor café. El pastel y el café también eran divinos. Productos de primera calidad, personal amable y una cafetería acogedora, aunque un poco pequeña. ¡Disfrutar!
