Visited this lovely cafe after walking round the Helmsley Walled garden. My husband and I enjoyed their coronation chicken open sandwich with generous salad - this must be the tastiest sandwich ever! Staff were very friendly and such a delightful atmosphere in their conservatory dining area with hanging vines and comfy cushions on the chairs. Definitely to be highly recommended if visiting this area. Linda & Russell Carey

After a most enjoyable visit to the Walled Garden on a hot day, we visited the Vinehouse Cafe, where lots of people were relaxing with drinks and food. The iced non-alcoholic cocktails were very refreshing and the cakes delicious. Unfortunately on the day the card payment system or internet had gone down and so the staff could not take hot food orders and could only take cash for drinks and snacks. Clearly stressed, the staff manage to keep smiling and doing what they could under difficult circumstances - well done.

This cafe is excellent 👌 I highly recommend the salad 🥗 bowls, packed with goodness, and available with a large choice of great toppings (2 per serving). The cafes' emphasis is to serve fresh food using quality ingredients and from the Walled Garden where possible. I absolutely love their freshly ground coffee, too ☕️ (Dancing Goat, Tockwith).

This is a lovely, unique eating place. I had coronation chicken open sandwich with homemade salad that had a lovely zest to it.......change from boring tomatoes & Cucumber. Staff were polite and friendly, and tables were clean and tidy. Although the food is delicious, I would say it is a little bit more expensive than other cafes, but to be honest the quality is second to none. The only negative I could find was that the lock on the toilet door was broken and wouldn't close properly. 😕 . Marks out of 5:- Venue. 🥗🥗🥗🥗🥗 Staff. 🥗🥗🥗🥗 Menu. 🥗🥗🥗🥗 Food 🥗🥗🥗🥗🥗 Price. 🥗🥗🥗

Being a little way out of the centre of Helmsley many visitors to the town will never know the delights of this wonderful place unless the Walled Garden is on their agenda. This is somewhere which which shows how very ordinary venues can produce great food which is just a little bit different from other places around them. The Buddha Bowls, which offer various options, are a delight to the palate and so well presented. The hummus which they use is good enough to rate alongside the best I have had in the middle-east, which puts it well above anything else I have found in the UK. Drinks like Moroccan Mint and Iced Elderflower Water are also worth mentioning. We don't do scones and cakes to can't comment but plenty of others do! It can get busy, but this does not seem to worry the staff who continue to offer polite and efficient service. We ate lunch early to beat the crowds which might be worth considering. We will be back to see the garden again if only to visit this wonderful place!

Introduced by a friend after many years of visiting Helmsley, blown away by service, staff and food. The location, the ethos, the care and attention. More hospitality venues should be like this, cannot wait for an excuse to return and try more of the menu and dabble with the specials. Thank you Vinehouse Team and thank you Irene for showing us this treasure 🥰

Four of us visited Helmsley castle yesterday and called into the cafe for lunch. It was a bright sunny day so we sat outside. Three of us had the cheese/ ham toasties with salad. And a teacake. Everything on our plate was absolutely delicious even the salad. We had a mixture of drinks and the tea was served in a pot with lovely little teacups and saucers. Its not the cheapest of places but worth every penny. The lady who waited on us was helpful and friendly. Perfection! We will definitely be back.

Really disappointed in this restaurant. It has a prime position next to Helmsley walled garden, and we have eaten here before and enjoyed it. Today however my husband and I were sad to see that the prices, service and food was very much worse than we remember. We ordered two coffees and two scones and were charged £18.30. I thought this must be a mistake as it seemed far too steep, however on asking them to check they told us the scones cost £5.50 each…. This was for a scone and butter, scone was cold and not anything special. We were both shocked at this pricing as we had been in another cafe in town earlier in the day and the prices were a lot cheaper and the food actually much nicer. The two staff serving appeared grumpy and not particularly helpful. We sat at a table which had not been cleared since the previous customers had left, and their tray with dirty cups and plates remained on our table throughout our time there with nobody clearing tables, despite the restaurant not being busy. Sadly we will not be returning as there are plenty of nicer, more reasonably priced cafes in the town.

Back to the Vinehouse cafe for lunch. Still outstanding. Delicious food in a lovely setting, from a highly original menu. So good to visit a cafe that doesn't trot out the familiar dishes, but shows real inventiveness. Everything fresh and tasty. It was quite busy, but the service was still quick.

Absolutely fabulous hidden little treasure a short walk from the village square. Wife has dietary restrictions and they were so understanding and accommodating. Staff were wonderful, friendly, efficient. Food came out in great time and was so flavourful.

Really grateful for the hot water bottles and heaters that we were given as soon as we sat down, what a thoughtful thing to do in the chilly months. I will be taken my work colleagues here for an after Christmas lunch, need to spread the news about what a fantastic place this is. Thank you so much for all the delicious food we’ve had with you over the last year. Looking forward to my next visit

Visited today. Struggled to find entrance door. Found a door, only to be met by a grim face woman who pointed down the empty vinehouse and almost snarled. "The entrance is down there, but you can come in here." She then turned her back and walked into kitchen area. The place was cold. No menu was offered. We sat for ten minutes without any sign of service. Appalling. We left. Found the Cocoa Tree in town, which was very welcoming and pleasant and had nice food. Advice. Avoid Vinehouse. Seek Cocoa tree.

The food in the Vinehouse Cafe is exceptional: far more varied and of a higher quality than you would expect. Very good value too. And the setting, in a glasshouse under ancient grapevines, is extraordinary. Dog friendly too. We had lunch after visiting Helmsley Castle and were very impressed.

I can't recommend this place highly enough. 25 of us (mainly elderly) arrived en masse at lunchtime on a Tuesday when only 2 staff were 'on'. They sorted us out with food and drink really well, which was quite a feat when there were many other customers eating or ordering already. The staff were friendly and unflappable , which was amazing in the circumstances! The food was wonderful - fresh, delicious and well-presented. Great coffee too. The cafe is in a large, old, lean-to Victorian greenhouse, and has a large vine growing at one end. It's a very relaxing place to have a meal in lovely surroundings. I will definitely be back when passing through Helmsley en route to Whitby. It is close to the main car park near the castle, and worth finding. A good experience all round.

We went late afternoon for coffee and cake, all the pastries and cakes looked homemade style and a look through the menu was enticing . The scones and vegetarian style sausage roll we had were superb, the coffee was possibly the best we’ve had in Helmsley . It was an unusual but delightful place in the glass house to enjoy your lunch underneath grape vines and the staff were pleasant

On a scorching hot day the Vinehouse Café was just what we needed. We sat outside under a large parasol, surrounded by beautiful flowers and started with iced elderflower in an enormous glass with lots of ice and a slice of cucumber; just the thing to cool us down. The open sandwiches were delicious served with interesting salads and the choice made it nearly impossible to decide. Despite being extremely busy, the staff were friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this place.

Went on BH Monday late in the afternoon and it was busy. Stood at the counter waiting to order the cling film was off the cakes, wasps crawling about. The gluten free cake under cling film looked like it was melting as just sat in very hot place, sweating. The counter top was covered in bits. Decided to just have a drink. The toilets were pretty grim too. Overall a poor impression. Appreciate it was a busy day but won't return

Had lunch here after a wander around the beautiful gardens. We sat outside under one of the capacious parasols which was great protection from the odd shower! I had the Buddha bowl with hummus and chicken. It came with warm flatbread and was delicious and filling, more than enough. My partner really enjoyed his cheese and ham toasted sandwich which again was generous in size and came with a lovely red cabbage coleslaw and couscous. A lovely relaxed lunch much appreciated!

Three of us had lunch at The Vine House today. On entry you are greeted with a light spacious and homely feel. There was also a lovely array of gifts including local food produce. We ordered toasted sandwiches (melts) that were to die for. Tasty...

Was recommended by one of my local suppliers. Great place, friendly attentive service which was quick and efficient as I was a one not a group of 12. Had the Calamari, Seabream fillet, cherry tomato, anchovy, caper, chilli with vegetable bowl and Tiramisu. A first class meal washed down with Camden Stout.

Amazing family run restaurant, great staff, food. Great welcome and would recommend. Lots of locals and friendly atmosphere. Entrance on the left not through the main doors!

On a busy Saturday night, the service was slow, we started with sourdough and labneh & dukkha, then shared their rarebit on a flatbread with a nice sauce, that was the highlight. I followed with cod and monkfish with mussels, the fish was good but the mussels with it were cold. My wife chose lamb rump which was also cold and was undercooked. We cancelled a second booking.

Cash only environment so go figure which they only tell you about when you get there. Rude staff, place looks filthy but no different to how food is presented. Parmo tastes nothing like a parmo should, more like microwaved chicken and cheese. Chicken burger had to be thrown away after on bite as stale bread used and chicken was cold and tough. Avoid this place please for your health and sanity.
