The maltings tearooms in Selby

Poor attitude, sign states everything is cooked to order which it is NOT except the Hash Brown which arrived piping hot soaked in oil having been in the fryer whilst everything else was Luke warm. The sausages were very 'plastic' type, with no flavour, the bacon was grim and burnt, the mushrooms were barely existent, the gentleman behind the counter when I arrived wasn't interested or greeting, £9.90 badly spent. Much nicer places in the area and this brings it down.

We fly at Sherburn, we have tried the current facilities, we have tried the Motorist… What is lacking is a plain family run establishment with a sassy Lady Boss, who cuts you no slack !!!!! You want breakfast - come early !! However, today, the sun, moon and stars aligned and we were blessed with a sausage sandwich. Turns out, they had a kids party later… Sat outside with some beautiful dogs to our left, loads of kids play articles in the safe grassy area, sun out - very pleasant. Drinks arrived, proper pot of tea for me, Coke for my heathen pal. Sandwiches arrived…….. Oh….. My….. A sight to behold, well filled, decent brown sauce, nice bap, excellent. We both went silent as we enjoyed - lots of nods and Mmmmmm’s. Everyone else was enjoying a whole variety of tasty comestibles. Well worth a visit.

Visited as had read that they catered for Gluten free diet, it did not disappoint there were several choices of cakes, brownie or flapjacks. The chocolate cake was amazing made by one of the owners. Very knowledgeable about allergens and cross contamination

Don't bother - really rude old woman who served us was snippy and down right rude. We travelled 8 miles to visit and when the old woman brought over our food she told me (really loudly and snappily in front of everyone) that I couldn't feed my 15 month old baby any more of his food that we had brought for him, and that I had to buy their food for him if he wants anything else. I will decide what MY BABY eats thank you. I have NEVER been asked not to feed my baby his own food in a restaurant/cafe before and we regularly eat out (weekly) in a range of different venues. If you had only said politely when we arrived about your policy and the reasons behind it then we wouldn't have had an issue. A small generic notice on the table is not sufficient and went easily unnoticed. Parents usually focus of sorting out their children first. Priorities! The way you acted so rudely and aggressively was not on. We will not be returning or recommending you to anyone. However I would like to say thank you to the younger members of staff though as you were polite and friendly.

Camping nearby, I needed a real coffee fix and found The Maltings by doing a Google search and checking out websites. The location is easy to access, plenty of parking spaces. There is indoor seating in a charming cabin, and ample comfortable seating on the outside decking. Greeted warmly and was instantly heartened to see someone baking. The selection of cakes stopped me in my tracks and there was my favourite coffee cake so I didn't really look for anything else else. We made ourselves comfortable outside and our coffees were brought out to us. Both coffee and cake hit the spot perfectly. If we are back in the area we will certainly be back.

Have often driven past here but have never been so was lovely when my partner surprised me with an afternoon tea voucher for my birthday. On arrival we said we had booked an afternoon tea and we were presented it on a platter which wasn’t what I expected to be honest and considering it had sausage rolls and pork pie on it wasn’t refrigerated so no idea how long it had been sat out of the fridge.The bread was a little dry on the sandwiches but the overall taste of the food was nice .We weren’t asked if we wanted a drink so my partner went inside to get us a drink and what I found very strange was a drink wasn’t included in the price of the afternoon tea ! I think with a little more attention to presentation and fresher bread and a drink included it could actually make so much difference

Best cafe in the south milford and sherburn area. Regularly get cooked breakfasts and cakes from here, very consistent. They also do the best brownies you'll find in the area! Good customer service too.

Very friendly staff. Welcoming and polite. Food was spot on too 👌🏻 definitely a nice spot to return to. Even more so as they have things going on for kids throughout the year!

Stopped off at the maltings for a coffee this morn as I was early for an appointment… what a wonderful welcoming cosy place … beautiful cakes on display and the staff were so lovely.. iv got to admit the latte was out of this world … so lovely to see a fab outdoor play area for children with many different toys to play with .. will definitely be visiting again ☕️

Young server very pleasant. Food didn’t arrive as ordered. No apology. Bread appears to be from frozen. Food ok nothing special. No prices on cakes etc. Specials on offer given verbally not displayed anywhere. Mature female team member very abrupt, no smile, poor customer service. Called here by chance but we won’t be returning. Shame, as on entering it looked very promising.

Been a few times to the Tea Rooms, one thing I cannot fault is the coffee! Always so flavourful and large glasses full. I always get a sweet treat too, both the cakes and the brownies are very moist and very big portions! Definitely will be back

Been a few times and always been great. Lovely choice of food and friendly atmosphere. The cakes are amazing!

We spotted this from the road and decided to call in for a coffee. We were not happy as we had to stand in the doorway to wait to be seated, This caused us to block the exit and we were in the way. Someone behind the counter asked us to sit at table number 7 and gave us a menu saying there was no table service. There were a group of three ladies in front of us who chose their own table and gave the number to the staff. We ordered two lattes but when they came the glasses were only three quarters full and the coffee, despite asking for half shots, was too strong. When we paid the £6 with a £10 note we got £3 change, yet when I went to school it should have been £4 When we left there was no "thank you" or "goodbye". Will not be visiting again.

A fabulous tasty lunch Pork in Yorkshire pudding! Always enjoy a meal or snack here great value for money with a varied menu and plenty choice for all tastes. Friendly owners very welcoming would highly recommend a visit

Visited twice and both occasions extremely disappointed. First visit September -afternoon tea for two with my daughter, using my 40th birthday present (voucher). On arrival was told tea (or any drink) wasn't included in my afternoon tea which I found to be odd considering the name! Came on boards, one with a selection of sandwich if you could call them that, more crust than bread. A mini portion of coleslaw, pickle and pickled onions along with a sausage roll cut into 4 pieces and a pork pie cut into 2. The cake section was on another level -1 scone and 1 piece of cake TO SHARE! Over all rubbish. Went again today with a friend -told no hot food available as closing early. Fine, ordered a sandwich and that's just what arrived. One round brown bread cake not even cut in half. No side salad or garnish. Disgusting for £4.50. All we could smell was bleach so I suppose we should be grateful it wad clean. Won't be trying for the third time that's for sure. Much nicer places in the area.

Now very poor. Changed breakfast menu. Now only choice of full or veggie breakfast or bacon/sausage sandwich with extras mushrooms, has brown or fried egg. No other egg options (eg scrambled) as in the past. No tinned tomatoes. No other smaller plate breakfasts. No just toast options. Outside served on plates though, not take out boxes. Hot drinks still in takeaway cups though. Probably will not make effort to return as other cafe options nearby.

Came today with friends. So disappointing. It was a lovely warm day so we sat outside. Went into order advised where we were sat and gave a number. Asked to pay later as we already new we wanted more drinks and cakes later and ti split the bill. The attitude from the woman on the roll (older blonde hair unable to smile) was appalling. So rude and patronising. Four of us eating. 2 sandwiches arrived wrapped in a bag. Said we are eating here not taking away. To be told as we were outside it’s tske away and no plates. Weren’t advised this and seems odd when still apart of the tea room. Then 5 minute wait for those 2 peoples chips ti arrive. Still no food for the other 2. Brought one salt one may for 2 people. By the time the other 2 food arrived we had finished. They had a toastie which had in melted cheese. Just looked like a toast sandwich. All very disappointing. No idea why the food couldn’t all be brought out together either. Then ordered some cakes. The cakes all look delicious. Me and SIL ordered the same brownies brownies. Another ordered different type of brownie. The 2 the same we’re raw inside. I went in to ask for another ti be told that’s how brownies are they are supposed to be gooey. I said I am aware of that but this is raw not gooey and the other brownies and the others I could see in display were not like this. Again told this is how they are meant to be it’s intentional. I said I’m not eating it and asked to swap for another which was fully cooked. Said look this isn’t the same. Served by the same older blonde lady who needs a lesson in customer service. Everything seemed a hassle ti her. She never smiled or spoke except blunt rude answers. The 3 younger staff were polite and helpful they should teach their boss a lesson. I won’t be coming there again and will advise others to avoid. Such a shame as could be so lovely. Not sure where you are made ti feel a second class citizen for choosing ti sit outside in summer when they have numerous tables set up ti accommodate this

Four of us visited for lunch. As it was a nice day we decided to sit outside. When ordering and asking for a tab we were told it isn't normal practice as you should pay when ordering. 2 sandwiches appeared in paper bags, followed by the 4 drinks, then a delay waiting for two ham and cheese toasties (served in polystyrene boxes). Very unappetizing. White barely toasted bread with some ham and grated cheese. Not hot, the cheese hadn't even melted. We then had brownies, one of which was raw cake dough. The others were very pleasant as were the young girls serving. Perhaps it would be helpful for staff to tell paying clientele that should they decide to eat outdoors they will be classed as takeaway customers. Definitely wouldn't recommend.

Went for lunch with family today. Nice day so we sat outside. Ordered food and it came in takeaway bags/cartons etc. asked if we could have a plate to be told they don’t do plates if you sit outside…….. what?? If they had said that when we ordered we would have sat inside. Sandwich ok chips tasted of oil. Asked for salt and a rather abrupt lady brought us one packet. Definitely not service with a smile. Brownies appeared to be just raw batter, I know they are meant to be gooey but these (not all only some) were actually raw. Disappointing.

Ordered a tuna & cheese panini - this is what arrived on a small side plate ! Couldn’t even cut it. I wouldn’t have even let that leave the kitchen. Tasted as bad as it looked. Nearly 10mins difference between my food being served and partner receiving theirs. Partner took coffee back as they’d given us both white ( hadn’t asked if we wanted black or white ). When we asked if we could get a black one instead we’re told ‘there’s your black coffee & you’ll need to pay for it ! ‘. Oh wow what great customer service skills. Think your staff need a bit more training in a few aspects of the service industry - starting with sandwich making and presentation! Oh and how to speak & treat customers

We visited here for brunch and ordered the small breakfast. As we had our very well-behaved dog with us, we sat outside. When the food came, it was brought in small polystyrene tray-boxes with plastic knives and forks. I assumed that they were of the belief that we were taking our food away and so explained we were staying to eat at the cafe. We were then told that because we had a dog with us, we were not allowed the privilege of plates or proper cutlery, because some people had allegedly been allowing their dogs to eat from the plates! First of all, what sort of a disrespectful cretin would allow a dog to eat from a plate at a cafe?! Secondly, why then assume all dog owners act in this disrespectful manner and tell us we have to eat out of polystyrene trays, using plastic cutlery?! It was like eating in a prison!! The food was mediocre to start with, but after this we definitely won’t return.

Welcoming. Staff so nice. Visited on a very busy Sunday. Staff were excellent , food was excellent. Skimmers breakfast wow. Spam sandwich perfect. Accessible toilet.

Just had out first visit to Maltings and it won't be our last ! Lovely friendly staff. My partner had a ham sandwich packed full of baked ham. I had salted caramel brownie. Awesome. Only managed half as huge portions. Think we will go for...

Very nice place to sit and eat with great service and top quality food! Would definitely visit again! Plenty to offer for everyone

Beautifully cooked Full English Breakfast, but we decided to eat outside and was served in a Take away Box and Plastic Knife and Fork at £15.00 for two very disappointing☹️Such a shame.So make sure you eat inside👍

Just been flying, no airfield cafes open around the place so decided to eat after. Well laid out, ordering easy and a surprisingly good choice in the circumstances. Tea piping hot and the bacon sarnies were generously filled and spot on. Plenty of good tables...

Unfriendly and unprofessional staff. Service was poor and you weren’t made to feel welcomed. (We visited during Halloween activities week).

This is my second birthday cake I have bought from the Malting's and they have both been delicious .. My husband picked up my HUGE lemon drizzle cake yesterday and everyone agreed it was superb !!! Thank you again x x

Been twice recently but wont go again. Staff very surly both times and unwelcoming. Very slow unpleasant service and one lot of cake was very dry. Better places locally.

Small, presentable cafe, portacabins , reasonable menu under new management, shame about the dump outside, awful car park

Came here to have a walk around the garden centre and popped into the tea rooms for something to eat. Three of us shared a ploughman’s board and had a selections of desserts too. The orange and lemon cake was delicious and the portions are very reasonable for the price. The staff were very pleasant and friendly, and the facilities we very clean and tidy. The tearoom itself was very nicely decorated and we would certainly come back and try a breakfast here.

Nice breakfast, good value for money, under new management, much better than before, shame about the tatty nursery attached

Under new management (really nice people), so we'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Having eaten here regularly in the last few months and always been very satisfied, we were a more than little disappointed this time. The cooked breakfast always is our favourite but it fell well below the usual high standard. Just as well cooked, served by pleasant friendly staff etc but the meat was not as good a quality. The blackboard still shows the supplier to be Jackson's Butchers which surely can't be the case now? The bacon was just about ok, but the sausages were not good - very low meat content? We'll be back soon and hopefully be able to give it 5 stars as before.

Called in today for the first time. Ordered their large breakfast (supersized I think they call it) with a coffee. Thought it was on the pricey side at almost £9.50, but when it arrived at I was really happy with it. The bacon and sausages are of the highest quality as was the whole breakfast, even the hash browns that I usually can’t stand but always forget to cancel. Staff were friendly and overall I can’t fault it.

As a cafe this is okay but it isn’t really a tearoom. It’s quite small so unfortunately the kitchen smells quickly fill it. If you are wanting a cheap and cheerful bacon sandwich, toastie etc then it is great but if you are looking for something more afternoon tea I would go elsewhere.

As un-assuming little place, just off the Sherburn by pass, to be honest from the road it doesn't look too inviting and even the drive up made us have second thoughts. However inside is much nicer, cosy tea room. Menu and staff very nice, good atmosphere. We have the cake platter for 2 to share £9.99, presentation and taste wonderful, scones a delight. Generous portions and ample tea included. Really very good and deserves to become well known, a favourite for us now.

Quirky tearoom, nice little cafe, varied menu and variety good service, clean and tidy, will go again

All day until 2pm actually and very nice indeed. The staff are very welcoming, the place is very clean and comfortable. We had full English breakfasts and they were excellent. Must call back soon to try the gorgeous looking cakes. Disabled access looks easy with a ramp and double doors for access.

The staff are always friendly and helpful. The menu accommodates most diets. The food is brilliant, especially the cakes. High chairs and baby changing facilities are available. There is lots of parking. Ingredients are mostly from local producers. We have visited on several occasions and never been disappointed.
