The Buffet Car Cafe in Bradford

What a Find, What Great Food, What Fantastic Prices and what Beautiful and Polite Staff, The Breakfast bun is Amazing and you really will appeciate such a good 100% Mug of Yorkshite Rea

The most fantastic find on Bank Holiday Monday! The quality of the breakfast was 10/10 with friendly service and fun watching the steam trains go by. We’ll definitely be back!

Fantastic Staff!!! Only the second time we have visited, can not fault the staff and the quality of the ingredients. Slightly over priced compared to competitors but when the food arrives you are defiantly getting value for money (you pay for what you get ) freshly cooked and piping hot. Everything was perfect. Thank you!

The outside of the building may not look too inviting, but the welcome inside was warm and friendly. Though the cafe was both busy and short staffed we did not have long to wait for our food and drink. We had a bacon and egg roll and a bacon and chips roll. Both were frwsh and perfectly cooked. The chips deserve a special mention as they were crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The cafe was good value for money. I would happily return again.

Reasonably priced, good quality and cooked to perfection. Called in on a whim for takeout breakfast sandwiches, quickly cooked to order. Will definitely call in again

Two years on from my last review and we were back at Haworth for the Steam Gala on the railway. First call was the cafe to stock up with cakes and other goodies for the day. I can confirm it is still as good as ever and prices are still very reasonable! It is small, does get busy so service can be slow. Allow plenty of time to stock up before catching the train

Lovely place, just opposite Haworth station. Stopped here as our b&B didn't serve hot breakfasts and really pleased we did. Had a full English with added spam - all very nice and good quality - locally sourced too, and you can tell. Really good quality, even the black pudding and really nice sausage. It was nice to have plum tomatoes. Bacon was slightly more well done than I'd have liked but apart from that it was all cooked perfectly. Nice toast to go with it and very good coffee too. Breakfasts served all day with a good choice. Friendly, cosy and highly recommended.

Opposite Haworth station. Stopped in while waiting for train back to Oxenhope. Very friendly staff. Homemade cakes. Superb homemade toasted tea cake. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Not impressed, no coffee machine, not even bean to cup, a bit down market for Howarth, I had a jacket potato with pulled pork, but the potato wasn't very warm never mind hot and wasn't properly cooked inside, and the pulled pork had had some sort of relish mixed in with it, this should be on the side as I am a diabetic and do not need extra sugar, I ate what I could and left the rest, the hot chocolate was pretty dire too.

Fabulous wee cafe opposite Haworth station. Decent menu with plenty of choice, especially breakfast options. Staff were friendly. Several staff from the railway were coming in for food so it seemed a popular choice.

I call here frequently, great staff, great food, great decor, Chilli @ Chips to die for😋 excellent service. My go to place when in Haworth.😊

Visited this cafe twice whilst staying in Haworth overnight due to a trip on the Flying Scotsman at the steam railway. Enjoyed a good quality takeaway coffee with oat milk and then next morning we visited again for breakfast. We were staying at a local AirBnB which we had to vacate by 10am so the 8am opening time made it a relaxing morning, knowing cafes often don’t open until 9am or later at weekends. Whilst the cafe was busy due to the Flying Scotsman weekend (good business for them!)- we didn’t mind waiting and soaking up the world going by from one of the pavement tables. The butties when they arrived - one bacon and egg, one bacon, sausage and tomato - were very good quality and tasty. And reasonable value too.

I’ve been coming to this cafe a few years no and I can not believe it has taken me this long to discover their wonderful chips… hand made, chunky as you like, perfectly cooked and a ideal accompaniment to the beef chilli. What can I say but thanks! If you visit Haworth and your looking for something tasty, locally sourced and value for money then the best by far is the buffet car! (Opposite Haworth train station.)👍

Yet another visit to this wonderful gem of a cafe!! The food has been consistently good every time I’ve visited. Brought my mum and dad this time… on entering we were greeted with a warm welcoming smile by a very polite young lady, and we were seated inside. We all ordered breakfast and what a breakfast it was.. all the produce was quality and not wholesale rubbish. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and look forward to our next visit.. thank you buffet car.

Me and my wife are vegans. I had the vegan breakfast for 7.85 or 8.85 which came with a coffee. My wife had a vegan sausage bap with onions(not "barm cake", btw). The breakfast came with 2 lovely sausages, 3 hash browns, beans, toms, mushrooms and two slices of lovely real bread. It was piping hot, perfectly presented. My wife was similarly impressed with her bap. No complaints. Coffee was great and oat milk provided. The place itself is tiny and only 6 or 7 people can sit in, but it's well worth a trip. A lot of the places in Haworth are pricey and a bit poncey(sorry) but the Buffet Car is a hidden gem!

Had a day on the KWVR and popped in early for a coffee. The breakfast looked so good calling back later seemed like a plan. A good move as it’s impossible to fault the quality or quantity of what we had. The care taken is reflected in the toast, two slices. Not just sliced bread but proper thick cut bloomer. Quality.

I have been here a couple of times now and I must say they do the best breakfast in Haworth and probably even the world. Good quality ingredients, extremely well cooked and very friendly staff.

Called this afternoon for a cup of tea and a snack. Wonderful little Caffè. Staff great and caring. Asked if we wanted caffeine or decaff tea. Lovely cup of tea. I had a cheese and tomato toasties. It was two very thick slices of fresh cut bread with loads of filling. Honestly say its the best one I have ever had. Staff even gave the dog a couple of treats. Prices were very reasonable.

I visit this cafe often so I thought it was about time I wrote a review. The food is awesome especially the hunters chicken/halloumi sandwich. Caters for all tastes.. Vegan, Vegetarian, Meat eaters.. Most ingredients are locally sourced avoiding wholesalers which means prices are fair but a little more than other wholesale based cafes but in my opinion totally worth it for the taste! Responsible packaging and great service! If your visiting Haworth or you live local it a must visit!

Across the road from Haworth Station, this is just the place for breakfast before going on the train, or to buy cakes to eat on it! We were later arriving than intended, so didn't have time for a bacon butty, but did get stocked up with cakes - ginger (rich, gooey and very gingery) lemon drizzle (light and lemony) and flapjacks (very tasty with lots of fruit, and definitely kept us going!) Prices are very reasonable too. This is a real find and well worth a visit.

This Cafe is right opposite the station on the fantastic Keighley and Worth Railway .It is cosy and a massive favourite destination for any railway goers and tourists . The key thing is the food ,which is fresh cooked and locally sourced bacon ,black pudding and sausages are all from an award winning local butcher . Nothing is too much trouble for owner Paula ,who with her staff keep it spotless and clean . The cakes are yummy too if you just want something lighter . We had big breakfasts which were huge ,and included fried Spam ,which with a big mug of tea and hearty toast was enough for the rest of the day ..You can also prebook a breakfast to save on time too because it does get busy .Try it ,you will not be disapointed . It is always a highlight of my trips to the Railway and not to be missed ,fantastic food ,and lovely staff .

Well what a little gem of a cafe, we got there 4 friends before us then me and my hubby,on a Sunday morning, chef was on her own from opening 8am til 9am, breakfast was a stunning, hot and presented nicely and very quick, lovely little place will definitely call again, was absolutely cracking.

Visited here for breakfast whilst visiting the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway. Great location in the centre of Haworth, a great atmosphere, using local produce. What could be better than?

Nice traditional cafe sittuated in the heart of Howarth. Friendly staff. Decent full English breakfast which included fresh butcher bacon and sausage. Very tasy food and a generous portion at a reasonable price. Did not merit the full five stars as the food was a bit cold. Would definately return here and have no problem in recommending the establishment.

WE dropped in to the Buffet Car Cafe for lunch after enjoying a morning on the Keighley and Worth Valley steam railway.People can eat inside at cosy tables while there are also some tables outside, but all were taken when we arrived.The main dining area is quite quirky with shelves and other things made from pipework, railway memorabilia on the walls and the comfortable feeling that you are in a little haven from the outside world.We ordered a variety of sandwiches including bacon, sausage and mash, cups of tea and bottles of lemonade. All the food was freshly prepared and very tasty.The lovely lady who ran the place was very friendly and even helped answer a few questions we had about where the route ran for The Railway Children walks, the film's famous Oakworth Station being nearby, one of the stops on the steam railway.The bill was very reasonable, the toilets were clean and well kept and we would urge anyone looking for a break to come here for some simple quality eats and drinks. Lovely little atmospheric place.

So we walked in it’s hard to find a proper vegan breakfast in the USA, it was tasty. I order the cottage pie scrumptious and in walks the delivery man with hot meat pies from the oven. Well I took 2 home to eat later, the lovely owner packed them up with care, I wish I had some now. The decor is train- centric cute and quirky. D. Gomez

Husband and I had sausage and veggie sausage baguettes with fried onions. Best veggie sausages I've ever tasted. Very clean. Lots of railway themed decorations. Service with a smile from the cook.

Stopped in here for a Full English, and it really was lovely. Perfect portion size (standard breakfast) and included tea, coffee or orange juice. Locally sourced sausages and bacon.... All in all one of the best I have ever had. Breakfast butties are nice too.

Stopped here for lunch while waiting for train with my partner.the food was great and friendly atmosphere highly recommend i would certainly come again 😊

As we arrived at the Haworth Train Station, noticabley hangry from a 2.5hr drive, The Buffet Car, directly across from the station caught our eye. And I'm so glad it did.The smell of freshly cooked food, the sight of home baked pies, cakes offer make you drool. Everything is cooked to order, this is guaranteed freshness and a tasty meal and priced very well.It's a clean, cosy cafe in the right spot and shouldn't be overlooked.Will call again.

If I'm working at Haworth station I always get myself a coffee from here - it's very good coffee! I've had a couple of breakfasts here too and the food is very nice, freshly cooked and lots of it.

We did not see it until 1340 Ordered two big breakfasts and a beef baguette. It was very fresh ,very hot and tasty and the owner was extremely friendly and accommodating. Very worth a visit . Thank you

Daughter and I had sausage sandwiches, which were lovely, and only 2.95. Lemon drizzle cake only 1 pound, and the pleasant gentleman refilled our tea and coffee for free! What a lovely little place. So reasonable in such a popular tourist location.

Really enjoyed the lunch we had here. I had the Yorkshire pudding wrap which was delicious. Plenty of filling within the wrap and it was of a great quality. Would definitely eat here again.

Very good to sit in the warmth of the cafe having a cake and a cuppa and waiting for the steam trains at the station across the road Friendly and helpful staff

If I lived near this cafe I would never be out of there. The full English is simply superb . Everything is cooked perfectly and the flavour and texture combinations work beautifully. Quality full English including tea £5.50...........amazing.

I live local to the cafe and noticed they started doing a Sunday roast to take out.. I live on my own and cooking a roast for my self is a lot of effort so I thought I would give it a go... it was lovely, tender meat, perfectly cooked veg and very tasty, good value too!! It is most definitely the healthiest take away I’ve ever had.. will defo be having again, thank you buffet car!!

We (the wife, grandparents and 5 year old son) had been enjoying the steam railway and disembarked at Haworth. In desperate need of a cup of tea (well Grandad was) we walked out of the station and saw this place bang opposite! And what a find! We ordered bacon sandwiches, tea and coffee which was all ridiculously good value! The food was freshly prepared using local produce and it showed! Delicious! Granny commented that it was the best bacon butty she’d ever had, which considering she only ever cooked her own was some praise indeed. Worth a visit for a well prepared snack (although they also do Sunday roasts which I assume will be equally good), served by a friendly couple! Cheers.

We enjoyed a nice mug of hot chocolate here on a rainy afternoon in August whilst waiting for our steam train.

A lovely little café, great service, ideally located across the road from the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway. Reasonably priced

I came with friends for a trip on the heritage railway from Haworth and this tiny café is located just across the road from the station entrance. We had tea and a cake and the quality and portion of tea was excellent - you get a very large pot for 1 person. We shared a huge Eccles cake for just £1 so prices here are very reasonable indeed. The owner is very friendly and chatty and the café has been very thoughtfully decorated. There is not a toilet as far as I could see but there is one in the station if you are travelling by train.
