The Little Fox Bookshop And Cafe in Scarborough

Lovely little place, great food and drinks. Wonderful to relax. They also have a cute book and play area for kids to chill out in!

After 199 steps down, we wanted to stop somewhere before our next adventure. Always on the look out for illustration inspiration , their front window of books caught my eye and we ventured in. Really welcoming surroundings filled with books, which I'm sure kids will love, and amazing coffee and cakes (Sourced locally and some are vegan - Great for the dairy intolerant). Well worth a stop after a trek to Whitby Abbey!

Do not miss this amazing little cafe! Been in this little stop a few times and never miss it now whenever we visit Whitby. The coffee is good, well rounded and full bodied and never disappoints. You will however spend a good 10 minutes stood at the sweets trying to decide what cake to have as they all look so good! Last visit I came with my partner and had two milkshakes as it was too hot outside for coffee and they also did not disappoint. The woman who served us was like a little ray of sunshine and am sad I didn't get her name to mention here! All staff on were pleasant and friendly, and always smiling. As two goths it is sometimes hard to find places that we feel safe and welcome in, you can be sure that no matter what or who you are you will always get the same warm welcome and treatment as everyone else. Bathrooms were spotless as always and it's so nice to see nappies and wipes in the changing rooms for parents to use. Children's area was kept clean and plenty of tables around it so parents could keep an eye on little ones while enjoying time to themselves. A brilliant spot for families or parents to go to take children out. Everything is book themed and seems straight out of a fairytale, going in here is like escaping the real world for an hour with a nice coffee. Even if you go to one eatery in Whitby make sure it's this one, you'll never be disappointed. Can't wait for our next visit!!!

On holiday near Whitby and called in for a couple of flat whites. Always like the range of books as they stock a good range with some real gems. But yes the coffee is good.

Late with oat milk extra hot request, and normal late came back exactly as requested. Great place to escape the hustle and bustle and great service, happy smiley staff. Will be back very soon.
