The Hub in Selby

I have previously visited before they change management, and won't be returning after today's vist. Arrived at 12 45pm, was queuing for over 15 minutes as service was so slow. Finally got to till to be told by a miserable member of staff with no smile on her face that they have stopped serving food, no sign anywhere saying the time they stop food service to avoid people queuing for no reason, unles there just having drinks. She then said abruptly "are you having drinks or not." At which point I walked out and won't be returning!

Great coffee and service but no gluten free options for food. Will go back but for coffee only which will mean return visits are very limited

We come on holiday near here and always pop into selby for breakfast. Our usual cafe is closed on a Sunday. I don’t know if it was an off day but the staff did not even crack a smile. Miserable as sin! We go stared at like we were aliens when we walked in. The food was nice but the service was, erm miserable. One of the female staff members was heard complaining it was her day off and she was in, and boy could you tell she wasn’t happy! A young lad came in at 10 to, I assume to pot wash etc and the 2 staff already in there ignored him. We won’t be returning, would rather starve! 🙄

Been going in the Hub for years. Unfortunately since changing hands, the coffee isn’t the same, people no longer go in for breakfasts as they used to, as they are not as good.

We tend to pop in to this establishment for snacks. Staff are helpful and welcoming and tables cleaned regularly and in some areas have screened bays. The food has always been well cooked and presented

Really impressed by how this place are managing the COVID restrictions. Felt really safe throughout and the Big Breakfasts we had were excellent too, especially the black pudding. Staff were friendly and attentive. Lovely spot for breakfast after a few miles on the cycle route. Would recommend.

Called kn for .unch I had a sausage and egg sandwich and a coffee my wife had a fried egg sandwich and a cup of tea everything adhered to regarding covid lovely sandwiches

Fabulous to find a cafe open on a Sunday morning. Great menu choice for breakfast stop en route from the Midlands to North Yorkshire. Good value. Felt very safe re COVID procedures. Friendly staff.

Very clean. The staff are friendly and the service fast. The food is prepared with care. My favourite cafe.

TASTY FOOD Nice clean cafe Nice staff Children friendly Try a cake i never had before and it was very nice Worth a visit we would come back again if we are in the area

Lovely staff here at The Hub, most of the patrons are local, more mature group, so zero bad language or attitude. Fabulous coffee and snacks, free morning papers too.

My wife and I used to pop in here for a nice cup of coffee whenever we were in Selby but have been able to since Lockdown. The Hub has recently re-opened and has taken all measures necessary to make everyone safe with screens between tables and conter top screens to separate staff and costomers. Very well done to the owners for their measures and for making customers welcome again. Unfortunately disposable paper cup but fully understand.

First visit... we were mother daughter and two grandchildren, we sat at the first table next to the counter so we could order and still see the children.... who were very well behaved holding the laminate menus that were on plastic stands. The lady that was serving us broke of to serve something to someone else came back and said to my daughter can I take the menu’s of the children as they are £15 each (the stands are at most £2 and the laminated piece of paper does not cost £13) my daughter just said whatever as we were a little taken aback by this, she took them from the children which made the little one upset, I just said to the lady you are not very kid friendly and we left, it goes without saying we will never go back or recommend it to anyone.

Called in for lunch on Saturday and was pleasantly surprised. We found a table and ordered breakfast, jacket potato, coffee and chocolate milk shake. Was served quickly and the staff were very friendly. Will say was slightly disappointed by the jacket potato which came on it’s own in a dish, no side salad or greenery. My husband’s breakfast was very good and came with two rounds of toast with jam and marmalade. Please support this local, independent cafe if you are visiting Selby and we will come back again.

We visited this cafe for a snack and sat where we could see the food preparation!! It took an age for our food to arrive and it was only soup and a sausage roll. It was nice when it arrived but the time we waited gave us the opportunity to watch the food being prepared. the lady who was cooking was constantly coughing over what she was handling and we noticed she had very red nail varnish on. She went into the back and came out carrying two items which looked a bit like fish cakes and put them on the counter (no plate) she then went into the food cabinet and selected what looked like sausages and licked them up with her bare hands and added them to the other items on the counter, i think these items were part of a breakfast. The cutlery was stored with their blades, prongs, bowls upwards so everyone touched them while selecting their knives, forks or spoons. I cleaned mine with a napkin. Then there was a young lady making a milk shake and when the ice cream would not come out of the scoop she pushed it out with her finger and then when she put marshmallows on top of the cream and they started to fall off she pushed them back on with her hand. Finally the toilets were covered in cobwebs, but I suppose they don't earn them any money. The food was nice and a young man who was collecting dishes was very pleasant but the hygiene left a lot to be desired.

Lovely cafe which we go to a lot. Reasonable prices, friendly staff. Seating area outside and a good cafe inside. Homemade food always good whatever you have. Tables are kept clean and cleared away quick. Toilets clean.It’s good to say all through the year they keep up the good standard.Wish they had a dog friendly corner inside, it would be a cherry on the cake!

A nice place to stop off for a coffee or bacon sandwich. The staff are very friendly and the food is good at very reasonable prices. You can also sit out the front when the weather permits

There was a wedding on when we visited Selby Abbey, so thought we'd get lunch until it was over. We found the Hub in the Market Cross Shopping Centre and thought we'd give it a try. Very pleasant! Friendly, polite staff and good food at reasonable prices. What more could you want?

Cheap and cheerful, cost atmosphere. Added bonus, seems to be cheapest takeaway brew in town I have found to date

My hubby and I called in here on Bank holiday Monday for a coffee and toasted tea Cake! We where impressed, with the service,staff, and the toilets! Will be definitely going back! Next time to try the breakfast! Can’t wait....

Honest cafe serving nice food, decent tea. Place is very clean and staff are friendly. Worth a visit rather than visiting the nearby faceless Costa!

Friendly staff.Coffee was watery.Nice central location.I personally prefer Costa coffee shop which is nearby.

As we had my dog this little cafe had outdoor seating, thankfully the weather was mild, and very nice coffee.

To be fair I didn't give it much of a crack, a cold cornish pasty and a packet of crisps to go! So not sure what the rest of the menu is like. But looked pleasant enough.

Nice little cafe with outside seating. Staff are pleasant if a little rushed off their feet when I visited. Drinks are decent and prices good.

called in today for coffee..asked could we have it weak and the waitress made sure it was and it was perfect. we sat outside as we had our dog with us...and a bowl of water was provided for him which was most welcome. we will certainly call again when next we are in the area.

9 of us cycled to Selby this morning and stopped for breakfast at this lovely place. Never been before but will definitely be back.we chose to sit outside to watch our bikes but there was ample room inside and out. My order came to £4.30 so gave over a fiver not realising there was 2 stuck together but the waitress gave one straight back to me. Obviously my change went straight in the tips plate as a reward for her honesty. Nice food friendly staff and good location. Even filled our water bottles for the return journey to Bradford.

it is not very often I take the trouble to review just a place we stop for a cup of tea and snack but I will make a exception for this place as it was so good

I visited here with a group of girlfriends after a long walk in from our local village. We all ordered different meals, everything from a bacon sandwich, jacket potato, salad and panini to toasted teacakes. We all enjoyed our food and nothing was too much trouble.

the staff are all very polite and nice to talk to and also very helpful. i went in there with 2 wheelchairs and 2 members of staff because i was staying at tawny lodge. whenever i come to stay at tawny lodge which is on union street in Selby my parents and i come for coffee and also for lunch. the staff where very kind to us because they put two tables together for us. tawny lodge is a respite centre for adults and tanagers with all sorts of learning disabilities. i live near Thirsk which is 84 miles away from Selby so that is why i come to the hub.

I came in to work on my laptop. I ordered a very large drink and sat down, drinking my coffee and minding my own business. seconds after I'd finished my drink and asked for a tap water, fully intending to have another coffee at some point but not at that exact second, the awful, rude woman working the counter (long, blonde ponytail) told me off for trying to hang around and use the wifi without buying anything. she was LITERALLY holding the empty coffee mug I'd just finished.

I'd seen on Strava that other cyclists have stopped here recently so I dropped in for tea, toast and to defrost.

when i come to stay at twany lodge my parents and i come to the hub for lunch. the staff are very polite and helpfull. the hub does lovely latte coffee's

Coffee and a sandwich. Good menu, good snacks, lovely coffee. The hub has very friendly staff. I recommend it.

Only been here once while looking for an alternative to Wetherspoons.....

Este es un café increíble y siempre nos visita cuando en Selby. Dentro asientos y asoleada fuera del área con sombrillas.

Servicio al cliente pésimo. Yo aconsejaría a la gente que no ve aquí. Fuimos a la orden y la señora que nos no era remotamente interesado en lo que tenía que decir. Preguntó donde estábamos sentados, pero ni siquiera mirar o reconocer lo que dice. Mientras estuvimos pidiendo nuestra comida que ella realmente no me molestaron y que ella no quería estar allí. Ella respondió "si" a mi compañero que cuando pidió un panini y café. Entonces, dos miembros del personal salía fuera a fumar y a la izquierda un anciano esperando varios minutos, me sorprende que no salir.

Vine aquí por primera vez con mi hermana. La señora tomar la orden estaba medio interesado en lo que estaba diciendo y seguíamos dando la orden equivocada. Pedimos 2 de queso y tomate pepino no paninis y solicitado en la ensalada. Cuando la comida llegaron eventualmente que tuvimos de pepino y tomate mi Panini no tiene. Un miembro del personal de la cocina y nos miraran como mi hermana y yo nos reímos juntos, lo cual nos pareció muy grosero. Vimos dos de los miembros del personal de estar al aire libre, mientras que sólo había una persona para ejecutar la tienda. Este fue el mediodía en un fin de semana. En general, deficiente servicio al cliente, habilidades de terrible y no otro que jamás volvería.

Gran relación calidad-precio en un ambiente agradable. Bueno para niños y adultos por igual. Fantástica panecillos de cerdo asado caliente

Go to a lot of places to eat when out and this is one of the worst I've been to. Rude staff who quite clearly didn't want to be here on a bank holiday Monday. Very slow as well. Cappuccino more like a latte. Stick with Costa I reckon as customer ain't king at The Hub.

I love to come and get a coffee as im shopping,this cafe is in such a handy place, fantastic cakes the carrot cake in paticular is very good ,nice service ,great atmosphere good selection of coffee syrups and desserts,my favorite place To go for a caramel latte Whether its to drink in or takeaway

Probably the best bacon sandwich for miles and a great coffee along with warm and welcoming staff make this one of the best cafes for miles around

Really great menu, prices to make the Londoners cry :) and everything seemed really fresh.The pork sandwich to worship (one keeps mentioning it months later).Excellent coffee, mice staff.

A pleasant little find, an excellent menu, great service and superb food together with some great tea and coffee, this really is worth a visit.

Called into the Hub as I couldn't face queue in Costa. Really glad I did, staff much more pleasant, food on offer good and much better value. Will definitely go again, goodbye Costa.

A great little café. Plenty of choice, good prices. Quick service pleasant staff. Outside seating for the warmer months, if you can put up with the smokers. Bacon and black pudding double decker was great. Coffee was fantastic. What more can you say. The only downside is that the single WC is a bit tatty.

Been twice and both times very good. Busy both times. Didnt have to wait long. Had the teacake and bacon sandwich.

Excellent friendly staff, very helpful. We like our tea strong, but mother likes hers very very weak, so we asked for some hot water to weaken mothers tea, Hot water provided at no extra cost and with a smile, which meant rest of us could enjoy our tea from the teapots and we could make mothers tea a lot weaker. Excellent, all four of us very happy. Excellent tea and the best ever carrot cake i have ever tasted. Inside was clean and comfortable and you were made to feel at home. Highly recommend, will be going again.Good value for money and a local business.

Great place to sit in the middle of town and watch the world go by. You must grab A coffe n cake on a nice day n treat ur self to a chilled out sit down outside on a good weather day

Often go for a breakfast of bacon and egg butty and egg sandwich. Egg sandwich always has 2 eggs. Helpful staff and a good atmosphere.

Was working close by "The Hub" and had breakfast and lunch there, the food was really fresh and the coffee was also excellent too. The lovely ladies serving were really friendly and have excellent service, thanks very much keep up the good work

I visit on a regular occasion with my daughter or my mum. Recommended place to eat drink or socialise. Staff are really friendly and helpful. Place is always queuing so says a lot there.! I get a belly buster with bacon egg beans and sausage served in a bap or with toast for 3.95 bargin. The atmosphere is always welcoming as soon as walk in for an order. They do bargin hot drinks to take away for half the price if drink in. Not many places do that. Over all experience 10/10

We rode from brough to selby and back. When we arrived we sat outside and it was very clean and warm. There was a good selection on the menu at very reasonable prices. I had a bacon and black pudding sandwich in a bap. It was good size with 3 rashers and 3 slices of black pudding washed down with a coffee for £4.55. Pleasant service. All in all a good find.

the staff are very nice to speak to. the place is wheelchair friendly the food is cooked to order and the prices are reasonable.

Small friendly and cheaply priced cuppa, hot and cold snacks , great outside area for alfresco lunches and teas

Stopped in here for a cuppa and a cake after work with a friend. Beautiful little place with super friendly staff. Even lent me a phone charger to charge up my phone. Lovely atmosphere. Love the decor! Love the fact I'm supporting a local business too and not a corporation like Costa! Will deffo become a regular!

We go here at least 4/5 per week, cheep and cheerful and very good quality. Always busy. And really nice people run it x

Friendly staff, clean. Good coffee and sandwiches. Very good value. Given the fact that take-away drinks are half price, I think it very reasonable that if customers pay for a take-away and then sit down, the staff ask them to move!

Went to buy a drink from here with a friend before work. Bought a hot chocolate to take out but then wanted to sit outside till work opened up, but the staff was quick to come outside and tell us that we couldnt sit in their seating area outside even though we had purchased drinks, I was quite disgusted and highly embarrassed by this.

I popped in for a coffee and wasn't too impressed with the way the staff spoke to me. I got a take away coffee and I was waiting to start work so I didn't have time to drink a whole coffee in the hub so I asked for it in a take away cup wouldn't of been bothered about paying full price. Once I received it I sat down and got a very abrupt comment from one of the staff asking me to leave and it made me feel very small as other customers were looking at me in the cafe! Then went and just sat outside in the freezing cold waiting for my work to open and got told to leave abruptly again! Wasn't too impressed at all!

Cheap and nasty ingredients food-wise. Coffee here is the stuff of nightmares. There is a pervading smell of ultra-cheap sausages being semi-cooked when you walk in to the place.I'd rate this near the bottom of the list - in a town that struggles to offer a decent cafe.

Just called in for a coffee in preference to chain coffee houses that abound nowadays. Great coffee, freshly prepared.Support independent cafes.

there is a lovely relaxed feeling here and the staff are very friendly and helpful,delicious coffee and food,great to sit outside when the weather permits and everything on one level so wheelchair accessable too

A great cafe in Selby. Comfy seating in a large area with a nice fresh decor. There is also an outside area which is a lovely sun trap to watch the world go by.The staff are very friendly, tea, coffee and homemade cakes are always a welcome treat. The hot pork baps really good at lunch time.The prices are very good and very competitive with other cafes in the area.

Popped in for a quick drink (and cake of course) while doing a spot of shopping in Selby. The Hub is a good clean, warm and well lit cafe with friendly staff, a good selection of drinks and a good menu choice. The prices for our drinks and cake were very reasonable and the food also looked well priced.The cafe has a good mix of comfy leather seats, tables and chairs and is centrally located to lots of shops. There is also an outdoor seating area. Would definitely pop in again if we were in the area.

Family run cafe, always a friendly welcome, fast service, fresh and delicious! Good to support a local business working hard all day and have to compete with the Big Boys who muscle in to small towns like Selby. Prices are really reasonable. Loyalty card too, buy 6 get one freeTake away coffee is a bargain too if you are in a rush!Lovely large outside sitting area away from traffic, although not covered if it rainsHighly recommended!

You always receive a welcome and the service can be fast. The new location has resulted in larger premises with added seating.

This is just the kind of café that a town like Selby needs. Handily placed in the centre of town so that you can have a cuppa before or after your shopping, and with a good outdoor area so that you can sit and watch the busy world go by - but in a pedestrian area so no car fumes and noise.The position is good - and so is the food. We're not talking haute cuisine here, but a good coffee or a decent pot of tea to go along with home-made cakes, tasty sandwiches (look out for the "Docker's Butty" triple layer!), paninis or a proper cooked breakfast.Prices are keen, staff are friendly and helpful and there's always a good buzz of chatter going around. Take out drinks are 50% of 'sit down' pricesIf the weather's not good enough to sit out, the inside area is warm and comfy.Another good point (at least in my eyes) is that it's proudly independent - local people serving local folk with good local nosh!

You simply have to try their home made caramel shortbread, brownies, and especially their cherry tiffin. They are all out of this world, I think of myself as a caramel shortbread connoisseur and no where else does them as good as here, not even Waitrose or M&S, it would be a crime to go in here and not at least try one of their cakes ! If you can't decide, you can always bring them home !The service is excellent, nothing is ever a problem, they are all friendly and very welcoming. A great little cafe with great cakes in a lovely town - perfect !!

Ordinary, nothing special but decent food & coffee but a bit pricey for a cafe. Selby is a bit spoilt with regards these types of eateries though & I know one or two others that I prefer.

Cheapest take-away tea and coffee in town, ideal for a Saturday morning watching the football! Staff are helpful too.

Nice little cafe in centre of Selby. Very handy when finished shopping. Pleasant outside seating area where you can watch the world go by! Coffee is very nice.A lot of choice for light meals and snacks. Very reasonable prices and friendly staff.

Went here yesterday, and was blown away. Great service, happy and welcoming staff. Bacon roll was big , lots of bacon. Coffee was brilliant, hot and very tasty. We also had one of the tasty scones. Can't recommend this place enough, not one of the sanitised high street chains, but a warm and inviting family run café.

Great food, good value, lovely local family business, who also support the local community. Thanks for a great lunch!

I popped in with my mum and ordered a coffee, tea and a slice of chocolate covered toffee shortbread. The shortbread was the best I have tasted (better than M &S Millionaires shortbreads!) and was informed that the owners wife had made it. Wow, I'll definitely be popping back there.

The Hub serves very good food at reasonable prices. Staff friendly and chatty. It can get busy so be patient. Plenty of seating inside and outside. This is great place to meet relax and enjoy food and drink.

We went to the hub for a drink and a bite to eat! Me and my daughter! I had a latte and a scone it was very nice! My daughter had a cheese sandwich and it was not very nice! The bread was dry.But my slush was nice

We popped in on a Sunday morning for a milkshake. They only had their 'normal' shakes available. These are just milk with that disgusting Crusha syrup. I'm told that their deluxe shakes are made with ice cream but I didn't get to experience it. Maybe I'll come back another time to try them.

This business has recently relocated and the change has been worthwhile both for the business and customers. The new restaurant is more spacious and certainly cleaner than the previous site. The food offer and standards of service appear to have improved too. The outside area is also much more inviting than in the previous location. We would have only visited the previous location as a 'last resort' but this new site is far more appealing and we will now visit more often.

Their breakfast is the best in Selby. Very good quality food, good value for money and friendly banter making me feel very welcome

Me and my grandma go in every Monday without any question. The staff are brilliant, food is glorious and the drinks are made to perfection. Never a dull moment, plenty of tables in a very bubbly, friendly atmosphere. Prices are very reasonable too.

A nice little cafe in the town of Selby. Visited on a Sunday and was surprised it was open. The cappuccino was nice and was brought outside for me. Good service. plenty of outdoor seating.

The Hub is a Friendly Café with great Staff,it is clean and comfortable inside and has a really nice outdoor area all set in the pleasant Market Cross Shopping area of this lovely little Town,really good Coffee and Food and really reasonable prices,highly recommended,give it a go and you won't be disappointed!

Nice little cafe in Selby with plenty of outdoor seating. Ordered a banana milkshake and it was lovely. Good price and nicely presented. Staff efficient.

the hub is a lovely little cafe in centre of Selby has. Large outdoor seating area .The coffee is ok I myself find it a little weak but that's personal preference the biggest downside for me at the hub is I'm never tempted by the food as it is laid out very poorly and doesn't entice you at all

What a fab place been going for years wouldnt go anywhere else well done x prices are good food all made fresh staff are always chatty and helpful

The Hub is an excellent little Café,Friendly Staff,Clean premises and Good Coffee,the Menu is not extensive but what they do they do really well and at very reasonable prices,highly recommended.

Really surprised at quality and price of a takeaway fresh ground coffee 80p!! Excellent value and staff always pleasant and helpful. Food good too. Nice seating area inside and out.

Excellent cafe.. Great food.. Friendly staff.. Great atmosphere.. Would highly recommend paying a visit

Well I am very relieved to say that despite the change of CJs cafe to the hub, my favorite cafe in Selby is just as good as ever!My bacon and egg sandwich is still perfect and just to make sure I tried some other items on the menu as well. A full breakfast, Excellent!Welsh Dragon sausage sandwich, excellent and of course the coffee!When I heard about the move being forced on CJs cafe by a greedy landlord and the corporate bullies Costa Coffee, I feared for the worst. However, I am very happy to say that the new cafe, The Hub, is just as comfortable and welcoming as the old Cjs.The food and coffee are still excellent, as is the service!

Cheerful, friendly staff, great value and lovely coffee, all served with a smile. We called in here after walking out of the nearby Market Tea rooms and were happy to find this lovely little cafe. We didn't have any of the cakes (pre holiday diet) but they looked delicious and very reasonably priced.
