T and Cake in Kirklees

We arrived without a booking and after a couple of minutes we were shown to our table and handed menus. Unfortunately after that, we were left around 15-20 minutes and nobody came to take our order. Eventually we got drinks thank goodness but then the food must have been another half an hour before it arrived. My husband and I ordered turkish eggs and it was nice but all 4 eggs (my husband's and mind) were all over cooked. I wouldnt go if you are in a rush to be honest, it took almost an hour and a half from start to finish.

Great coffee and freshly prepared tasty food. An ever changing specials board along with some very tasty favourites. Staff are very welcoming and nice atmosphere

It was busy but worth the wait. At first we didn’t get a very warm welcome from the lady when we said there would be 6 of us, but she gradually warmed when other staff members suggested a little furniture rearranging. Food and drinks were amazing and after the initial hesitation we were served with cheerfulness & consideration.

My husband and I took my Dad for lunch, husband had fish finger butty, Dad had poached eggs on toast, I had sweet corn soup with poached egg and we shared some truffle, parmesan and parsley chips which were to die for! Soup was best I’ve had from a cafe/bistro for some time and everyone said how lovely it all was. There was a short wait for food, which was fine as it gave us chance to have a cup of tea before having everything arrive at the same time. There are loads of different types of teas. I’ve eaten here before and always enjoyed it! Will be back, thanks

comfortable relaxed restaurant with outside seating good service, good food and coffee, also a specials board . All our food was cooked fresh to order , delicious.

This is my go to place if I’m I’m wanting a quick but tasty lunch with family or friends The food is always good with lots of choice If you like good quality produce then this is the place for you The fish finger sandwich is delicious The soup if the day is always very good and the truffle chips are a must try Well worth a visit if you are hungry and want to eat somewhere nice for breakfast or lunch

Had a wonderful early mother's day brunch with the family today. Each of us had something different and we were all super happy with our choices. They were all rather large portions and I who chose a sandwich had a generous filling of BLT. Wherever I go I always ask for my bacon well done and it often comes back disappointing but this was delicious, really crispy with not one bit of fat in sight. The service was lovely, really welcoming and attentative. Absolutely love this place. Would highly recommend.

Lovely homely place with very pleasant staff. Interesting menu and specials board. We all enjoyed our food, as we have on our previous visits.

The most gorgeous visit to T&Cake, Almondbury today! Absolutely devine food and great service. All 3 dishes from the specials board (purple sprouted brocoli and poached eggs on toast, gorgonzola, pear and candied walnut tart and the chocolate pecan French toast), were to die for!! The BLT and Nutella on toast from the standard menu were also delicious! Such generous portion sizes, really great value for money! The thought that goes into putting these dishes together is really special. Can't recommend enough!

My parents were again disappointed by the lack of filling in the sandwiches. I don't know why they keep going back. When wonderfully generous, good value sausage sandwiches are available at such as Bolster Farm cafe then why be ripped off here!

Not for the first time, I was made to feel unwelcome. Three of us entered: "Do you have a reservation?" (The café was virtually empty.) And there would be FIVE of us: we were left to stand around embarrassed while staff debated in exasperated tones how so rare a number could be seated. (Eventual answer: bring a fifth chair...) I like the place and usually have been well received, but really, I can never go back: my guests were embarrassed, and I was embarrassed in front of them. Being at least polite to clients on entry should be a no-brainer, and they CAN do it. They need to sharpen up their act.

I've had a brilliant experience at T and Cake before. I can't eat gluten and as a result was delighted that I could get a really good toasted sandwich made with gluten free bread there in September. Visited with friends today and ordered the same thing as we did last time (which is not marked as a non gluten free option on the menu) - was told that the chef was not happy to make it because "it wouldn't be as good as the normal one". Still asked for it and said I would be happy however it arrived, as I had enjoyed it so much (spoiler alert here - this had hands down been the best gluten free thing I have eaten all year). Front of House came back again a few minutes later to say the chef was unhappy to make it, and offering me a mushroom benedict which I can't eat because of the sauce. I went down to ask the chef what he could make me, to be shouted at and told "I am too busy to deal with this" and was handed over to a member of front of staff. Ended up with a bacon sandwich which I could have made myself and probably better. Sadly had literally said five minutes before this experience that I was going to ask about booking the upstairs for a group booking/party if possible, so they have lost business there. I gather that the standard of Connor's food is much more important than polite or helpful customer service. An easy fix might be take items off the menu if you are unhappy with making them gluten free so the quality so this doesn't happen again. Either way, we won't be going back, so plenty of space freed up for customers who can eat gluten or perhaps one less customer so he will be a little bit less busy and a little bit less stressed.

The food is amazing so much to choose from fresh and extremely tasty Had the Welsh rabbit and chicken and bacon sandwich and truffle chips Plenty of tables and the cafe is clean and bright staff were very attentive Unfortunately I paid the till and yet again I was over charged by over £6 just a suggestion get the bill at the table before paying so you can see what you are being charged for paying at the till you just get the amount no itemised bill, shame really this has happened to me twice now so I’ve extremely disappointed ☹️

Exceptional brunch. Good selection on the menu with a substantial specials board. Good range of nice loose leaf tea too. Nice atmosphere, excellent choice of music.

Had lunch with my 2 sons and we all loved our food. The biggest problem is trying to decide what to order as there are so many delicious things and specials as well. The menu for tea is very comprehensive and there are some lovel choices.

Lovely place for Sunday brunch. Varied menu and delicious food. Cakes looked amazing but we were all too full to try them.

We were recommended T & Cake from a friend and were looking forward to our lunch. The staff were fantastic and very welcoming. Unfortunately service was slow however we were told upfront that there was a wait for food plus it was a very warm day so we completely understood! The menu is pretty good and meals were described well. I ordered the puff pastry mushroom tartlet and my friend ordered the caesar chicken salad, and we indulged in a side portion of the truffle fries to share. The tartlet was lovely despite feeling a little greasy, the truffle fries were absolutely delicious and crunchy (100% recommended!) however the caesar salad was unfortunately disappointing. My friend told me the chicken wasn’t very nice, that it felt rubbery and fatty. Despite the salad, we enjoyed our lunchtime visit.

Called here today for lunch and it was excellent. Lovely bread and very tasty sandwich. Varied menu - something for everyone. Service with a smile from the male waiter who was extremely helpful and polite - nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back!

The food here is so good!! I came here for a baby shower with a group of friends and had one of the specials which was delicious. The staff are really friendly. Great selection of food on the menu, cakes and teas / coffees. I...

Was always best place for sandwich and coffee in Huddersfield, unfortunately standards have dropped in the café, waiting times are now ridiculously slow with food arriving 20-30 minutes after hot drink service. My cappuccino was tepid and weak, drunk before food arrived, no apology for...

Fantastic burger night. Perfectly cooked, great quality, fab taste….one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Will be back. Best food for miles. Many miles. Many many miles.

This was our first visit here, we were sat upstairs. It took quite a while before someone came to us (a young man, who was polite and apologised for the delay) but our food took absolutely ages to arrive. We ordered a breakfast bap each...

How hard can it be to make scrambled eggs !! Only one person in the place 10.30 We can’t make scrambled eggs all the burners are on for Sunday lunch , What it’s only 10.30 could make scrambled eggs in 3 minutes, Walked out

My sister and I visited today at 12.30pm, we didn't have a booking but was given a table upstairs straight away. The waitress was just going downstairs and asked us if we knew what we wanted to order which we said we did. She said...

There was a party of nine for a birthday, which was previously booked. We ordered champagne, cake & lunch. We were looking forward to a lovely time with friends & family, which was ruined by incredibly rude staff, we were made to feel unwelcome, uncomfortable...

Visited tea and cake for a birthday lunch, the building is beautiful and the food is wonderful, such a shame about the service! Staff were quite rude, they do not make you feel welcome , don’t deserve the custom .

We dined at The Terrarium (part of Tea and Cake) and found the experience awful. We were reluctant to take our coats off upon sitting at the table due to the restaurant being absolutely freezing. Thirty minutes later our food arrived, which was delicious, but...

Absolutely fantastic food, staff and decor. Such a surprise to find such great food in the area. The ‘details’ were so perfect too - the plates, cups etc are all carefully considered.

Lovely place and good atmosphere plus 2 fabulous waitress staff. Ordered a fish finger sandwich with rocket and tartare sauce and got 3 breaded birds eye style in it. Thought would be large & battered at least. Came well 😌 presented with crisps in an...

Tonight we visited T & Cake for their burger night and it was beautiful. I had the lamb burger and my hubby the cheese burger. Both we so tasty. We also had a milkshake each and shared some truffle chips. I even had some coffee...

Pre booked. Arrived on time. Greeted by friendly young server. Sat at a wet table by another with an array of menus placed in a cleaning solution puddle on the table. Extremely busy shop floor which makes the experience very loud and difficult to hear...

We visited here on a sunny bank holiday Monday. We sat outside in the vegetable garden around the back which was lovely! The menu offers a huge selection of teas to suit everyone’s taste along with coffee and other soft drinks. The menu was plentiful...

Visited today with my family for breakfast and coffee. We live locally so have been many times before the new owners look over. My parents commented how service was slow last time they visited, but were willing to give it another try. We weren't given...

visited bank holiday Monday at lunch time. The young girls behind the counter was very welcoming. We were shown to our table upstairs and was left for 25 minutes before our order was taken. Then we waited 15 minutes for our cups of tea and a further 22 minutes for the cakes. The back door was open and it was cold being sat directly on the stairs.Delicious cakes but faster service needed.

We have been Friday regulars at T and Cake since it opened but this was our first visit since the pandemic. I think there are new owners although the menu was the same. The cafe had just a few sparsely scattered tables and seemed rather lacking in life. The garden seating was open but the ambience is spoiled by a noisy extractor fan.The food was acceptable...when it came. Waited 30 mins although the place was nearly empty when we arrived. The initial service for drinks and ordering took far too long. Still a lot to learn about customer service.

My wife and I pop in most days during the week and always find the staff friendly, efficient and on the ball. The food is ALWAYS excellent and to the highest standard. Conor, Becky, Tyrone, Tracy, Warwick and the rest of the team can never do too much to help.It's also great that T & Cake is dog friendly as we always have our dog with us; it's nice to also see that the cafe now has it's own doggie mascot - Reuben - who is always welcoming.

i booked a table for 7 which i was told that that was fine over the phone. When arriving we waited ten minutes before being seated we arrived at 2pm on the dot. We where then taken upstairs where the adults where seated at a table and the children were seated on two sofas. I asked my sister are the children going to eat of the floor as there was no table for them. I spoke to the waiter who i found quite abrupt, and asked him if my children were eating off the floor. His reply was they didn t do tables of 7 and it should never have been booked. Eventually as people left they put two tables together. We waited that long to order that i had to go find the waiter. We then ordered, 15 mins later he came back and told us they didn t have some of the food..we then had to pick something else. The food finally came and i had chicken ceaser salad, it was a case of hide and seek with the chicken as there hardly was any. Eventually went tp pay. We spoke to the owner and told her that it was unfair that we had to wait over an hour. She just looked at us and said it was because of the eat out campaign. We weren t offered anything for the bad service we had recieved. Both me and my sister commented on there fb page. The owner copy and pasted us both the same reply which i thought was rude. On looking through the good reviews my daughter pointed out that alot of the profile pictures looked like they had come off google. Overall i think this place is overpriced and overrated

So happy now T&cake is back open, the best food and all the staff were super friendly. Definitely worth a visit

Very disappointed with the food .I was so looking forward to Eggs Benedict but the egg was slimy and undercooked the sauce was pale and tasteless. Another had Welsh Rarebit it was similar to a slice of garlic bread, how they can charge £7.50 for each meal is beyond me. I went to the toilet it was upstairs and through some messy rooms . Not impressed

My daughter (aged 21) and I visited this cafe for a quick lunch during a day out sightseeing in the surrounding area. Sadly, I have to agree with several of the previous comments. The cafe itself is quaint and cosy, our food was very tasty and the menu was a delight to choose from. However, our overall experience was tainted by the attitude of our server who came across as disinterested and uncaring.

Visited T and Cake to meet friends who were in the area having come up from the South. Got to say could not believe the rudeness of the lady in charge throughout our stay. She has no customer service skills whatsoever, appeared clearly irritated at having to serve us. Food was ok, nothing more with all poached eggs basically hard boiled. I have to compliment the other lady serving on Monday, she was smiling, pleasant and was the total opposite of the grumpy woman in charge. On speaking to other friends yesterday it appears this is not an isolated incident.

Owner not welcoming. Shame because it is a lovely building and the menu is well thought out. But I am not drawn back.

My girlfriend and I first came here 2 weeks ago on the recommendation of our boss, Eric.The first time was lovely. Amazing food, cake and we were looked after very well. Today was our second time and it was just as good, if not better. Will definitely be returning and would highly recommend it to anyone! Keep it up!

We really enjoyed our breakfast here, the food and drinks were very good but the cafe was cold (even though we are in May, heating was required) as was the service! I agree with the previous comments that the lack of customer service spoiled the overall experience but there was no faulting the food.

I’ve just read a reply that the owners of this restaurant gave another customer’s comment: “we have to insist on doing it our way” and that illustrates this premises idea of customer service to a tee. Don’t dare ask for any variation to anything on the menu, don’t attempt to move a chair, don’t attempt to enjoy yourselves or relax in any way while you eat because be sure that the “lady” owner will make sure you feel like naughty school children at worst and unwelcome guests at best. Can’t fault the food that is served but I don’t think it’s worth the tongue-lashing and uncomfortable atmosphere where everyone’s waiting to see who gets told off next... Indigestion inducing.

My husband and I visited here for the first time today. I have never been so impressed by the hospitality of staff so much xNothing was too much trouble, they were so friendly I felt very much at home. The food was fantastic and everything was piping hot a rarety these days Have already recommended my daughter to visit and we will deffinately be going back x

I go to T and Cake fairly regularly so I decided to treat my elderly grandma to lunch. We went in (with my grandma clearly struggling to walk) and were told the only seats we were allowed in the empty restaurant were right at the back. Not a big deal; we sit as instructed. The owner comes to take our order and my grandmother asks whether she can have just fish fingers and chips as opposed to the sandwich. Well, the lady did not like this. Rudely informed us that it's not on their menu but they can give it us without bread (so really, not particularly hard to do...) I ordered a sandwich. Food was fine if small for the price; but service really let them down. What does it cost to smile? To let us sit somewhere accessible? To clear our plates within 30 minutes of finishing? My grandma who doesn't get out so often was left feeling really horrible as though she had somehow upset this lady simply by entering her premises - cherry on top she then had the audacity to make a comment about tips! (My tip: learn to do your job with a smile)

Visited for the third time today, the first couple of times I visited I had my small child with me, I was made to feel like I wasn't welcome by tge female owner because I had a small child who wouldn't sit in silence and wanted to play with the selection of toys I had brought with me (i had been warned by many friends that tgey had recieved the same rude attitude when visiting with children), but in all honesty the food was lovely and the chef seemed like a nice man so I thought a visit without children would be more enjoyable ... again I couldn't fault the food but the owner of T&Cake shouldn't be in the business of having to deal with people! She was rude and abrubt and there was absolutely no warmth to her whatsoever. She has no "people skills" and doesn't deserve lovely people's custom as she has no manners and clearly cannot muster the ability to be polite to the people who visit her establishment. I won't be going back, purely because of the attitude of this horrid woman. If she decides to sell the business on and the chef decides to stay I will happily visit again.

As a cafe owner myself, I stumbled upon this lovely place quite by chance when visiting the area. The service was excellent, I was asked to sit in the mahoosive chair while I waited for a table, my food arrived and it was gorgeous. I must have missed the 'owner that is sooo rude' perhaps she was having a day off getting her claws removed, I must have gone the following day! we cafe owners have to have some respite from the complaining customers that drive us insane lol! I could not fault my experience and all I can say is keep up the good work - you cant win em all. xx

Lovely lunch. Had the chicken Caesar salad. It was huge. The chicken was beautiful and the croutons were amazing along with the dressing which was lovely. Fast efficient service. Been for lunch several times and food is always lovely. I have read reviews about the owner. She is pleasant although sometimes is a little blunt.

Food and drink was nice however we found the owner incredibly rude. She needs to learn some customer service skills as good food and drink are overlooked when the server is miserable and rude to customers

I’ve been many times before and the food never disappoints. I had eggs Benedict with mushrooms, this is the best EB I’ve had anywhere in the world, they are perfect. My husband had devilled kidneys and my daughter had club sandwich. Service very good and efficient. My only criticism is I always want a cake but always too full. Wonderful place

Took a neighbor here for T & Cakes Had a fantastic afternoon enjoying fantastic atmosphere and wonderful cake, the tea was nice too.

I’ve been to this cafe several times whilst visiting family in Almondbury, the food is delicious, however the owner is incredibly rude and has been every time I’ve visited, If you can grin and bare the terrible service, you will certainly enjoy the food!

ordered a club sandwich and pot of tea,,,,waited and waited... finished the tea, after 35 minutes i asked the waitress about my lunch... my order slip never got to the chief.. she offered something quick... my order was a quick sandwich, but what they don't notice is customers came after me and i'm still there with no lunch, this waitress past me several times and never noticed..thanks for the free tea but service not good enough,,,don't blame the chief, he cant prepare whats not their!!

This is my second visit to this very popular little place. I was recommended T & Cake by a friend and the food is stunning. It’s only now I have read the reviews and find them all quite a surprise. The service and the food in here is stunning. I have been in some of the best restaurants in the UK and can safely say this is up there with the best. They love their food in here and you can tell by the presentation and the fresh local produce used.

One bread roll, (white and bog standard, no choices given) 1.5 rashers bacon, sausage, egg, slice of black pudding, teaspoon of tinned tomatoes, less than a full mushroom, nothing on the side, served on piece of wood (that's what must put the prices up) cost + £7. What sort of joke is this? One less customer and certainly no recommendations to visit

As always good food - I love the chicken and avocado sandwich. The service is relaxed but that’s fine because it’s always good to catch up with friends and you need time for that!

Nice food and lovely cakes cooked by the sometimes tetchy lady who owns the restaurant.. Nicely presented food in quaint surroundings.

We visit T & Cake often and don’t think to write a review as we usually only review holiday restaurants. Obviously we love the food - especially the truffle and Parmesan chips and the delicious scones but I’ve written the review because every time we visit we have the delight of chatting to the chef. He is so lovely and always remembers our son William’s name and his favourite food - giving him a big high five when we come in and when we leave. It’s lovely that he is so kind and makes a fuss over us. He makes delicious food too!

We went here recently and enjoyed some lovely good which had a touch of nouveau cuisine. All nicely cooked + presented. The owner seems to be in charge of the cafe floor +is a bit strict about who can sit where and how many on each table which i suppose is her right but she seemed a bit strict + headteacher-ish

Went for brunch today for my daughters birthday and as always it is excellent. Mushroom eggs Benedict, devilled kidneys. Breakfast sandwich with all the trimmings black pudding, bacon, sausage. The food is absolutely amazing and consistently good.

Finally a cafe in Yorkshire that realises you don't have to be cheap and cheerful to be good. Yorkshire folk will put their hands in their pocket and pay for good food.

Always wanting to try new things on this fantastic menu. Never fails. It's worth return visits to experience the different flavors and wonderful friendly service.

Very friendly service. The food is very tasty, well presented and a good range to choose from. I frequently have the Polish open sandwich which keeps me going for the rest of the day

Could sample food or atmosphere because both my wife and I are wheelchair users and there are steps down to...

I've been to T&Cake; numerous times, and have always loved it. I'd definitely recommend the eggs Benedict and the chocolate...

The food here is consistently impressive, through from snacks, meals, to cakes. The breakfast eggs benedict is wonderful. Never been...

Fuimos hasta el pueblo para donar a las tiendas de caridad con mis dos pequeños. De 2 y 5. Después de un tiempo precioso mirando a través de las tiendas en el pueblo, por un capricho, decidió pasarse a la T y tarta, ya que...

Un sonriente siempre una cálida bienvenida. Este café tiene en mi opinión el mejor desayuno en Huddersfield. Los huevos McBenedict hizo con haggis y salsa holandesa está fuera de este mundo. Con una taza de Earl Grey es la forma perfecta de comenzar el día. En anteriores visitas la tostada con mermelada de bacon es también excelente. No puedo esperar a volver.

We were intending popping in for a cup of tea and a slice of Tracy's excellent carrot and ginger cake.But when we had a quick decco at the menu, I found the eggs Benedict too appealing, and Lisa was tempted by the kedgeree.They were both top notch. Cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. The service was fast and efficient. Everything was just right.We then had T & Cake. Builders tea for me, black coffee for Lisa. We both had the carrot and ginger, I cannot recommend it highly enough.All in all, a superb lunch.

Been here a few times now, each time the menu is fresh and represents local, in season produce. The cakes are delicious and a bit different too, the carrot and ginger cake being my most recent favourite! Staff are friendly and genuine too. This visit I was with my two year old daughter, my only grumble would be that although they do offer to tailor anything on the menu for children but a few more options for them would be nice, but I am the mummy of a fussy little eater so this could just be me!

We had a lovely experience at T & Cake. We were welcomed by by two delightful ladies. We ordered the eggs Benedict and Chamois Welsh rarebit, both dishes were excellent the hollandaise sauce was spot on, and the flavours of the Chamois was excellent. Tried the Yorkshire Parkin for the first time which was also excellent and took home some fantastic fruit cake. We will be back.

Delicious chicken & avocado sandwich. Great service. Delicious cakes to take out.I left my pink scarf in the cafe, thank you to the kind lady who followed me & returned my scarf. Very much appreciated.

We regularly walk to work up the appetite to enjoy a lunch here. The coffee is good, but it's the food that makes this place special. There are gluten free meals and cakes to keep my wife happy, and plenty of filling tasty food to keep me happy too. Staff are friendly, but it does get busy so it's pot luck and expect a little wait at busy periods- the food is worth it. Kedgeree and home chips are among our regular orders. Both nicely spiced.

I have been a couple of times and the first visit was good but the second and last time was a bad experience and very disappointing. I went with my daughter for brunch one Saturday morning and I was excited when I saw eggs benedict on the menu. I convinced my daughter to have it for the first time but when we got it I wish I hadn't convinced her to have it.The ingredients used were good quality and fresh but the disappointing thing was that for some reason they had put a cheesy runny sauce over the eggs and ham. I was asked if everything was ok for us and when I said that the sauce was not Hollandaise sauce but a runny cheese sauce it kicked off in front of all the other customers in the café.The lady serving went to the cook and told him what I had said and he came out of the kitchen with an upperty attitude and said in a loud voice and said we don't put cheese sauce over eggs benedict. I said that it should be Hollandaise sauce but it was deffinately cheese sauce on this. I also said it should not be thin and runny either he got even more snotty and tried to make out I did not know what I was on about. Little did he know that I did as my family have top chefs in it. We went to leave and the only good thing was that they knocked a few pounds off the bill. I will not be going back again. Attitude or what. Anyone can wear a chefs hat but it does not mean they know what they are doing. .

Had a lovely catch up with my friend here. Atmosphere is very relaxed with lovely food and good service I would highly recommend a visit

This is a lovely cafe right in the heart of Almondbury. I often visit when I go to see my mum. We do the shops then go here for lunch .All the food is home made and the cafe is tastefully decorated.My favourite is the all day breakfast sandwich but the quiches are also very good.I've never tried the cakes but judging by the reviews they get on trip advisor , I am clearly missing out!Will be back soon

Not yet have I found a better sandwich in Huddersfield, Chicken, bacon & avocado is just simply the BEST!!

Visited on Saturday to meet friends for brunch. We were made to wait on a settee until the whole party arrived even though there were lots of empty tables. When we were finally allowed to a table I read the menu and it stated if you had an allergy or intolerance to ask for annotated menu so you knew what you could have. I went to the desk and asked for this menu only to be told we don't do gluten free or have another menu. I was a bit embarrassed, the lady then said I could have gluten free eggs benedict. The food was ok, but pricey. I also got told off when leaving because I wanted to pay with my card. It wasn't the relaxing morning catch up with friends we'd planned and none of us will return.

This is a quaint little place, the food is good but a little on the pricey side if you have a meal the a cake. There is a wait if busy so if your in a rush it might not be for you. I will be going again but only on special occasions or for a treat.

We first moved to Almondbury 4 years ago and have had breakfast, brunch & lunch in various places however none can compare to T @ Cake, the delightful Tracy and talented Stephen couldn't be improved. A visit to T & cake for a breakfast treat is a definite family favourite, fresh local produce & real tea

We have been visiting T&Cake on a monthly basis ever since it opened in 2011, having patronised the original fine-dining restaurant the Weaver's Shed in Golcar, owned and run by Stephen and Tracy Jackson, regularly for many years previously. The new business is a small licensed cafe with eight tables, four circular and four square, seating approximately 24 customers. As well as an extensive printed menu, there is always a list of current attractions on a large blackboard, such as the daily home-made delicious soup and adventurous savouries. The cafe is effectively open (from 9.00am on weekdays) for breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea but the items on the menu can be accessed at any time - we often start our breakfast with soup of the day! The premises close at 2.00pm on Saturdays and at 4.00pm on other days. Today, we opted for a special, very tasty, pulled chicken item with curd cheese, as well as a regular bacon jam on toast, with poached eggs; there are many alternatives; such as kedgeree or a breakfast bap with bacon, sausage and a fried egg, or things on toast, such as eggs, kidneys or mushrooms. Home made cakes are a must and there is a wide range of teas and coffees to be had. Stephen Jackson is the highly-rated head chef and Tracy Jackson is the source of the delightful cakes.

I am lucky that T & Cake is on my doorstep as their food is top notch!! Today I plumped for the bacon jam, poached eggs, parsley and maple syrup on toast. It was just fab!! As was the service... I'll definitely be back soon and I'm pretty sure my other half will be in on Saturday for his usual!

Service with a smile, lovely selection of food and cakes. They even serve delicious Horlicks which is rare these days. Lovely sunny garden area at the back. Perfect.

Visited for a snack mid afternoon but was informed by a rather officious and bordering on rude female, Kitchen was closed. Ended up with Tea for two with Cake £10 very overpriced for what was offered in a drab out dated tea room. Would think twice about a return visit.

The foods not bad,but its just way too expensive for what it actually is. The cafe is clean, but quite dark, so sitting near a window is the best bet.the waiting staff are very average and don't really talk to you much, just want to get their job done.Over all its alright.

We are regulars and really enjoy our lunches accompanied by our little doggie. The soups are fantastic,the chips brilliant and my wife drools over the pulled pork sandwich. I am also a fan of the fruit cake. Fay? our waitress last week was charming. A gem of a place.

My friend & I have visited this restaurant before but not for a while, so we decided to visit again to see if it was as good as we thought on previous visits. We were not disappointed, the service was welcoming and the food was delicious, I had the field mushrooms on toast..very tasty! as a vegetarian it is nice to have a choice other than cheese & pickle! We will definitely return..

We went a couple times before our baby girl arrived, the food was good but expensive. Since our daughter arrived we have only been the once as we were made to feel like we were in the way simply because we had a buggy and a baby. The owner can also be quite stern and overbearing making the atmosphere uncomfortable at times. If you have lots of money and no children then T & Cake might be worth a visit.

Popped in for a cup of tea and a slice of cake one afternoon.Female member of staff had a disgusting attitude and her manner was nothing short of rude. Food is ok but extremely pricey for what it is. Cake was dry but the tea was excellent.Wouldn't visit again I'm afraid. Atmosphere isn't great and the condescending rude staff make it easy to say we won't be back. I've spoken to a good few people about my experience at this place and the majority have said the same. Maybe it's time for a customer services input day for some of the staff! Sad really as has the basis for a decent tea stop in a pleasant village.

Went in for breakfast several weeks ago lovely setting and quite amazed as used to go in when i was a kid with mum tho pleasant staff and helpful think they would do better if they served more down to earth meals to me its a up market coffee shop but the coffee was lovely !

We had a late breakfast here last weekend and I can thoroughly recommend the Eggs McBenedict. Will be back soon to sample the cakes.

We had a wonderful lunch today. We both had a sandwich, tea and cake and it was all delicious. The restaurant was full but the food came fairly quickly. The two ladies who served us were friendly. I would very much recommend T and Cake for lunch or snack.

Nice welcome on arrival, food well presented and arrived in good time. Welsh rarebit was tasty and a v welcome addition to a menu, but £8... Wow. Of course I knew this before I ordered,but actually everything was fairly pricey. Shame, as this is a cool place, pretty stylishly decked out AND they played Lambchop, which is always a thumbs-up for me, but we just felt not particularly great value given the £8 rarely- spotted rarebit.

Visited on a Friday lunchtime, we waited a few minutes for a table to be cleared and were then shown to our table. Menus were provided and a visit to peruse the specials board resulted in us both selecting specials. My hotdog was absolutely delicious and my friend's choice of spanakopita declared equally tasty. Both dishes were beautifully presented and the side order of chips was to die for! The following chocolate brownie with ginger and chilli was worth the trip alone and the accompanying coffee fresh and hot. Service was friendly and attentive. A visit here is a must and I'll definitely be back.

Really nice local cafe with lots of cakes and treats on offer. They even do horlicks which is a rare thing these days and is gorgeous. The only thing that spoilt it was a scruffy woman who came in with her dog and sat on the sofa with it. Even though she put down a towel first, I though the dog should have sat on the floor or should have been asked to by the staff.

The eggs Benedict are to die for. Another plus is that they serve Dark Woods coffee which roasted nearby in Slaithwaite. The staff are friendly and welcoming.

I like it here! For that something a little special and a superb eggs Benedict T & Cake is great. The tea choice is extensive and the cakes are impressive and all delivered with a cheery, professional though a little 'matronly' but friendly style. Looking for somewhere a little different for a great lunch with friends, family or a business meeting you should go here. The sandwiches are vast and don't forget...order the eggs Benedict!

Had the pulled pork sandwich, very tasty, will definitely return. The ham and pineapple pickle one wasn't bad either. Lovely little spot!
