We have passed this wonderful cafe on previous visits to Skipton but never stopped. This time we decided to visit & we were not disappointed. Wonderful atmosphere, welcoming & friendly staff. A great menu selection & very reasonable prices. The food was delivered quickly to our table & tasted wonderful. We will be back.

We vist this cafe regularily. My favourite is the lamb roast dinner. Always hot and tasty. Melt in the mouth meat with lovely crunchy veg and lovely mash and roast potatoes. My OH varies his choice but the food us always good. Served with a cracking pot of tea as well. The puddings are a special treat. The staff are lovely...so hard working and very helpful. The dogs are always welcome and offered water. This place had it all. Well worth a visit you won't be disappointed!!

Unfortunately we didn’t discover this gem of a restaurant until our final day in Skipton. If we had we would certainly have made several visits. The staff were lovely and welcoming, the selection of food was amazing, the helpings were huge, and the food tasted really good. My husband had the meat and potato pie, which he said was delicious, and I had the scampi and southern chicken combo, which was so tasty - but too much food! Had I known I was being presented with so much I don’t think I would have started with the leek and potato soup - but it was sooo good. Talking of soup, it was lovely to have the option of what I consider to be a 'normal' soup; too many places now are, I think, trying to go upmarket and all you seem to be able to find are things like broccoli and Stilton, or pumpkin and Brie, or (my favourite non-favourite) curried turnip. Why, just why? I will definitely be recommending this restaurant to any family or friends visiting Skipton.

Visited this restaurant in skipton travelling back home from Harrogate.We ordered the roast dinner and the pie of the day. Can’t praise the food and service enough. Lovely homemade ingredients and staff were brilliant, very polite and welcoming. Will definitely be calling in when we pass through. The Christmas pudding sundae was extremely nice and a nice finish to a fantastic meal.

Having just spent a few days in the area on a narrowboat, my partner and I visited this restaurant twice! The first time we had two roast beef dinners and an amazing slab of homemade biscoff cheesecake! We liked it so much we came back for breakfast two days after, both had the full English, and when I went to pay I also grabbed two homemade mint aero brownies for the boat, everything we had was lovely! The place was always very busy but food arrived quickly and staff were very friendly, it was clean and right in the town, so perfect for a spot of shopping. We will definitely return when back in the area!

We visited here as a family for breakfast and had a fantastic experience. The staff could not be more helpful. Everyone was extremely welcoming and the food was great (if you're a big eater, you will not be disappointed!). The cafe has a lovely, relaxed atmosphere, they were happy to cook a custom meal for my 13 month old and the only disappointment is that it's a 4 hour drive for us to visit again ☺️ Thank you for a great breakfast on the final day of our holiday

Although, living in Skipton n passing it many times a relative of mine told me about the Takeaway option, and Acquired me a Menu . Upon reading it this sounded good enough to Eat on it's own with what appears to be Extensive n delicious meals of every description. So I, set to work n ordered 2 Roast Dinners in a box a Beef n Yorkshire n a Chicken with stuffing and it did Not Disappoint ! Meat was so tender it melted in your mouth two types of Tatie three Veg n Gravy to die for . Never have I had, gravy so good anywhere Ever. Day2 back again n this time had Grilled Gammon & Egg wi Chips n peas n Like the Roast dinner the day before it makes your mouth water . From now on this will be my Restaurant of choice both for Eat in and takeaway. I, suggest that everyone try's this place I Can't praise it Enough.

Had a meal here one afternoon in early September, After staying in the Dales for a week this was the best meal my wife and I had. There is so much variety to choose from which is such a delight and a change from all the usual generic cafe fayre on offer.I needed something substantial so chose a roast chicken dinner and it was absolutely superb. Moist delicious chicken with all the trimmings and more. My wife had a salad and was equally delighted with it.We dined upstairs and the service was efficient, warm and friendly. All the staff seemed to be working hard to give the best customer experience and they greatly succeeded with us. They have decades of experience and have honed it into the best place to eat in Skipton and beyond.

Just been for lunch after reading the glowing reviews on Tripadvisor. Though it worth a try and we were certainly not disappointed. Very busy - would think a lot of regular customers but we were lucky and shown to a table straight away. Very friendly service . Food plentiful and well cooked- just like home made. Will definitely return and can really understand why it’s so popular. A good cafe serving proper meals at such a reasonable price is hard to find . Keep up the good work!!

We enjoyed an excellent value-for-money breakfast while on our stay in Skipton. The café was recommended to us and we were not disappointed. The staff were helpful and efficient, the food was freshly cooked, COVID measures were evidently still in place (despite Freedom Day having passed) so we were impressed with the cleanliness and space. Had we been in the area for longer, we would have returned, perhaps for lunch!

Our first visit and have to say the food was superb. Old fashioned type cafe with a more senior clientele but don't let that put you off. The food is excellent. I had a Yorkshire pudding which was a little crispy on the outside how I like it and filled to bursting point with lovely roast lamb and mini roast potatoes. This comes served with 3 vegetables, carrot, peas and cabbage and a jug of minted gravy. I enjoyed every bite. My wife had a breaded king prawn salad which was nicely presented and she enjoyed. Had a good glass of savignon blanc to wash it down. Will certainly visit again and especially as it is dog friendly

We love this Restaurant and in our opinion the best in Skipton . Located in the centre of the town but hidden away behind the old Rackhams Store . Spotless clean , oozes charm , family run and friendly . Huge menu and fantastic value The breakfasts, roast dinners and deserts are all excellent. It’s always busy with locals and that says it all . Highly recommended if you like traditional British food in a warm , cosy restaurant Always on our list when we visit Skipton !!

Staying in a cottage in Skipton just before 2nd lockdown. Awful weather. We decided to give this cafe a try. We ordered two roasts, beef & lamb & two soups. The food was lovely, tender meat, roast & boiled pots,good veg. Brilliant soup.V large portions (finished soup next day) £18 for 2 people. We could not fault it. Not sure if it's open for takeaway during lockdown but if it is give it a try. We will next time we are in Skipton.

After reading the fabulous reviews, my husband and I visited the Café a few weeks ago. The food was faultless - all fresh, home cooked and great value. The staff are ALL helpful and friendly and the place itself spotless. However, I thought to myself, is it consistent? so last week we revisited.EXACTLY the same standards. the following day I called for a takeaway breakfast and got chatting to the chap that owns it - Everyone who works there is related in some sort of way, and they all have the same values and interest in the business, taking pride with every aspect. They work extremely hard, and deserve all the praise and custom they get-FABULOUS. Thank YouHelen Cox

We have eaten several times at Dale Cottage and on every occasion, the food has been absolutely delicious. Dale Cottage roast dinners are just like home made, my favourite is the Braised Steak Roast Dinner, the meat is melt in the mouth tender, the vegetables hot and tasty and the roast potatoes and Yorkshire Pud, a really nice touch is the extra gravy boat of the delicious gravy! We recently tried the English Breakfast which was also delicious, the only fault we found was the tinned tomatoes - we much prefer fresh, otherwise it was a very tasty breakfast. The service in this Cafe is absolutely first class, all the staff work so hard and are always pleasant and smiling. We will definitely be returning for more delicious meals.

Mid-week lunch. My mother-in-law (89 yrs old) had the best ever prawn baguette in her life, the rest of us having chilli with chips, curry with rice and pasta with tomato & basil sauce and were all good and so cheap. the saying 'you get what you pay for' is not true here as you received so much more including service with a good wide Yorkshire smile. Thank you.

On a day trip to Skipton we stopped here for breakfast. It didn’t disappoint. Beautiful breakfast, lots of toast too. The breakfast beat me and that was only the normal one not the large! The serving staff, all young, were very, very friendly, polite and informative. I couldn’t fault them. The whole place was exceptionally clean too. It is a dog friendly restaurant... there were two under the next table. Indeed, Skipton seems to be a dog friendly town. Everyone seemed to have a dog and they were allowed in nearly all the shops. There is even a dog cafe in town

Found this lovely cafe by chance whilst walking around looking for somewhere to eat breakfast. Staff were very friendly and we were made to feel very welcome. I had the “small” breakfast (not so small as I struggled to finish it), and my husband had the large ones. Quality ingredients, all cooked very well and we throughly enjoyed them. The Interior is quirky and very clean. Would definitely recommend. Prices were very reasonable for the quality of food.

Visited today with another couple for lunch. The food was very tasty well served and good portions. I had the giant Yorkshire pudding with beef, it was served with a good portion of vegetable. My wife had a cheese panini and salad which she said was very tasty. Our friends had the beef Yorkshire pudding and Mediterranean chicken which was well received. The staff were efficient and friendly. The bill for the four of us was surprisingly good. The only comment I would have was that the staff were not wearing either face masks or shields which in view of other establishments we have visited during the pandemic were wearing them

I don't think there is anything that I can think of that this place does not serve. They are so good they offer a range of vegetarian options and possibly vegan, that are not contrived, such as if you want a roast dinner without the meat you can have all the vegetables, potatoes, yorkshire puds and vegetarian gravy etc., so you are not left out.Brilliant piece of marketing when you see their frontage covered with blackboards and listing a never-ending choice of meals, light or otherwise, sandwiches or main meals, pies, salads - just name it they do it. Puds and dessets. Great cafe, very inexpensive. They deserve success. Always open. Gosh they must work hard! They deserve the business.

This cafe takes me back to the 1950/60s. Oil cloth table cloths, willow pattern plates, teapots that will not pour tea easily and big chunky cutlery. It's a bit cramped between tables, especially if your neighbours are on the stout side. Parking nearby is at a premium. BUT - what a cracking full English breakfast for not a lot of money. Almost always perfectly cooked and usually with very little waiting time, The roast lunches are good too, very simple but very tasty. You're unlikely to get rare beef and the vegetables are usually carrots, peas and cabbage - so nothing fancy but such good value. Definitely a leap back in time.

Came here with my teenage daughter on our visit to Skipton. I had the homemade meat and potato pie which came with chips and veg,and my daughter had the veggie lasagne, with a portion of chips on the side. Both our plates were empty when we finished! It was so good. Staff were friendly as well. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Skipton. Easy to find, virtually across the road from the short stay car park, just behind the M&S; Foodhall.

This small restaurant is located behind the main street. It was clearly very popular, and we were glad we had reserved a table. Service was quick and friendly, and the food of good quality. There is a good choice available. Great value for money.

Called in by chance after visiting the market and although the ground floor was fully occupied we were directed to the first floor and found a table. The stairs to this floor may be awkward for someone with restricted mobility but if you had to wait for a table on the ground floor you would not be disappointed. The premises are decorated in keeping with its previous use, very clean and the staff's attitude could not be bettered. The meals were piping hot and at a very reasonable price, there was a wait for the meal, but not undue, and only to be expected with fresh cooked produce. Would certainly visit again and have recommended it to all our friends.

Just had a Christmas lunch - booked at short notice. Food could not be faulted nor the warm welcome and fantastic service from all the staff. Have eaten a few Christmas lunches this year around North Yorkshire and this is certainly No 1 on all counts. This fantastic level of quality and service extends throughout the year and makes the Dales Cafe a reason to visit Skipton. FANTASTIC

Easy access to a warm and quite friendly eatery. The dining area was spotless - clean cutlery and crockery. There's not a lot of space between tables but it wasn't too cramped. The service was good, we didn't have to wait too long for drinks and food. The "full breakfast" consisted of Sausage, bacon, egg, tomato, baked beans and toast. It was well cooked and presented - not one drop of excess grease on the plate!!

Went to the Skipton Xmas market on Sunday the 2nd of December , and as it was very busy as usual my wife and I decided to visit our favourite cafe for lunch. On arrival we had to wait for a table for a few minutes as the Dales was very busy as expected. Once seated and order given a few minutes later our lunch arrived , my wife choosing a chicken salad whilst I went for the stew and dumplings , a large portion piping hot , a request for extra graveyard to our waitress was felt with immediately with a smile . A great well priced lunch for two , will definitely be back ! .

Well the choice of home cooked food is amazing very difficult to make a choice. So warm friendly and welcoming when you walk through the door greeted with a smile and wonderful aroma of home cooking. My husband and I chose the chicken curry which is served with rice, chips and nan bread - good choice it was delicious. Served piping hot so tasty and excellent value for money. Be sure to go and enjoy some of the tasty dishes on offer you will be well impressed. Thank you so much, see you next time.

Discovered this gem of a place while looking for a lunchtime treat for my Dad. Reasonably priced menu- great Yorkshire puds ( thumbs up from my Dad who, as a Yorkshireman, considers himself an authority on the subject). Smiling, friendly service, flexible service times. A very pleasant experience! Just save us some bread & butter pudding next time please;). We’ll certainly come back.

Visited for Sunday lunch. An extensive menu was available and I chose roast turkey which was very reasonably priced. The staff were helpful and friendly. The meal arrived promptly and everything on the plate was good. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Toilets were clean.

Called for lunch on a day out with my mum. Lots of choice all posted outside on big boards. Plenty of home cooked food including a number of vegetarian options. Shown to a table near the door which was a little draughty & noisy with people looking for tables, ordering food & looking for the toilets which are unfortunately upstairs. The service was quick & friendly (order at the counter but served at the table) & the food was tasty. The portions are very large for lunch time, Prices very reasonable.

Entering the warm interior of the cafe we were greeted with a smile and as it wasn't too busy told to take a seat any where.. When its busy they allocate you a choice of tables. We perused the menu then went to the counter to order and pay for our meal and drinks. These arrives promptly and were very pleasing to the eye. The portions were a little on the large side but that's our personal taste, for some it maybe was what they wanted. We thoroughly enjoyed the food but unfortunately couldn't finish it all.

I come here all the time and I have never had a bad meal! Reasonably priced and cheerful. Waitresses were happy to help! Inside is rather quirky as well!!

Found this by accident, so when we visit Skipton we always eat here. The service is good, as is the food and its reasonably priced. Downside, is it always seems to be busy when we go, so getting a table is sometimes a struggle.

Whenever we visit Skipton we always have our meal here. Cannot think of anywhere better for good quality reasonably priced food. Big choice of meals so should have something for everyone's tastes. Staff always friendly and will accommodate special requests. Food served very quickly always warm and tasty. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Having been regular Sunday lunch customers for at least 20 years, at least once or twice every month. The food has always been good, hence our loyal custom. Today we once again went there for our lunch and both ordered a roast turkey dinner. The turkey was dark,dry and awful. Small scraps hidden under gravy. My wife left all the turkey and ate just the vegetables. I ate some of the turkey and wished I hadn’t. We complained to the lad and said he would tell them in the kitchen. Nobody bothered coming to us from the kitchen. No right minded cafe would have served meat that looked like that. All we can do is vote with our feet which is sad after all these years.

My husband and I were out on our cycle ride from Settle during lockdown2 and stopped off for a Takeaway Tea and Cake. Lovely friendly service and the quality was top notch. Little touches like providing some card to sit on, as I said we were going to sit on the wall. All very covid aware but delivered in a manner that we were comfortable with. Now the main point of this review was when we found out a part had snapped off one of the bikes and they went hunting for a spare bolt and were so thoughtful and kind till all was sorted. Real stars and we will be forever thankful. This is what makes the Yorkshire Dales such a special place and we will recommend to our fellow local cycling buddies. Thanks again.

Called here for lunch after seeing diners outside enjoying splendid bacon sandwiches. Dining inside was great with some novel dishes on offer. Would certainly call again when in the area.
