The Wrinkled Stocking in Kirklees

Wonderful!!!!!! The most pleasant atmosphere , clean, welcoming, friendly owners, food great, China crockery, can't say enough about this unique cafe.

Huge, well priced Big Batty Breakfast with unlimited coffee. Friendly service. Great location. Very atmospheric.

We had the hot chocolate which was a meal in itself! The owner is friendly and the decor had a fair bit of last of the summer wine picture without going over the top. A little bit pricey but it is a must for Lotsw fans as it's converted from the house where Nora Batty lived in that program

We have visited Holmfirth a couple of times staying at Nora Batty’s cottage whixh is next door to the Wrinkled Stocking Tearoom and can definitely say that fhis is our go to place and never disappoints The breakfasts are stunning, made freshly to order with several options available although the regular one pictured is ample for me. The other half had eggs and home made chips which were amazing with a hot chocolate that was almost a work of aft Service was warm and friendly and not rushed which was great with even some treats for the dogs as well We also asked them to do us some savoury trays to have in the house and these were brilliant - freshly made sandwiches, nibbles, quiches and cheese ane very competitively priced Probably one of our favourite tearooms and are already looking forward to our next visit

I've tittled this if it ain't broke don't fox it. Why? Stumbled upon this place on way to York for a weekend travelling via Holmfirth. Have to say what an absolute find. Had the large breakfast with coffee and orange juice and it was big and superb quality and value for money. For a tourist place, Last of the Summer Wine fame, one usually expects to pay far more for food and drinks so I was totally surprised. About an hour and 15 from where I live and already planning another visit with more family members before Xmas. And dog friendly. Such places who produce quality food, great setting and great value for money deserve to be kept alive for all to enjoy and experience. Forgot to take a photo of food because I couldn't wait to tuck in.

Fantastic little cafe with a wonderful welcoming atmosphere. The staff are friendly and attentive and the breakfast was delicious and excellent value. You won’t be leaving hungry that’s for sure .

An amazing cafe situated in the centre of Holmfirth. Very friendly staff and a gorgeous breakfast.

Great location if you`re a Last of the Summer Wine fan, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, well worth a visit. Proper pot of Yorkshire tea.

The place was exceptionally clean and tidy. Lovely welcome from the staff, good menu and great decor. We both had a breakfast and really enjoyed everything.

From the moment you step into the cafe you feel at home. Very friendly and attentive team working hard to look after everyone. Ordered two small breakfasts off the menu that came with Orange juice and a choice of tea or coffee. When plates arrived very well cooked. Very clean and tidy environment. Will be going back. Lovely memorabilia and pictures around shelves and walls on Last of the Summer Wine series. Great visit and cannot recommend enough to others.

What a lovely place. The breakfast was fabulous…..very well presented of good quality produce. The staff were amazing …..we had the loveliest waitress who I could have sat and chatted to all day ( I felt like I had a new best friend! ) ….will definitely visit again next ti e we are in the area.

Came for lunch and was not disappointed. Proper home cooking and really welcoming host. Can't praise this place enough. clean tidy real China cup and saucer excellent food. Nora Batty would be proud of you.

This cafe is my favourite place for breakfast. On the many occasions (approx 10) I have I have never been disappointed. The food is top class, the staff are friendly and the ambiance lovely. Make sure you sit in Compos corner or overlooking the River Holme.

Great breakfast, great value for money and the staff are lovely. No trouble at all for them to change my egg for an other item. Crackin spot for food. Only slight down side was pouched eggs were over done for the wife. If ya want them runny make sure to ask, I'm sure they would oblige.

A weekly visit for Sunday breakfast, amazing as always. Service is always spot on and the breakfast brilliant as always. Great ingredients, everything you would want. Sausage really tasty

Stopped here for a bit of lunch! Enquired about gluten free food and was given a gluten free menu! Lots of choice and very helpful people! Choose a sandwich which was probably the best gf bread I've eaten! Would definitely recommend this place!

Called here for breakfast after attending a wedding weekend Holmfirth. Food was lovely. Great selection for vegetarians too. Bottomless tea and coffee. Cosy little cafe with friendly staff. 5 stars from me

Ordered a take-away afternoon tea for a friend and me to enjoy and was totally blown away by the attention to detail and very tasty treats! Highly recommend and will be ordering again. 😁

Lovely little tearoom. We both had amazing hot chocolates and roasties, the food was excellent. We brought the dog along too and Alfie was treated to his own sausage as well which was a really nice touch. Very friendly, very nice food, just an all round lovely little place. Unfortunately we were just visiting on holiday but I think if we were local we’d find ourselves being regulars here!

Called in for a full English. Cooked fresh to order. Came with fresh orange juice and a large pot of tea with proper china cups. Best cup of tea I've had in a long time. Couldn't fault anything. Great service and great food, all this for £6.50. A real gem of a find.

We ate there several times during our week in Holmfirth and it was top notch each time. I had the breakfast and my wife had the Pea & Ham Soup. Both were excelent quality and quantity. We even met met and spoke at lenghth to one of the Last of the Summer Wine principal actors who we are a fan of. Dennis (the owner) runs a really nice eatery with a multitude of LOTSW memrobillia.

Great little cafe with lots of character. Friendly service and the breakfast was delicious! We had the cooked breakfast and a kids sausage beans and toast. Good price too.

Visited a couple of times during our stay. The milkshakes are amazing. I had the pork pie and mushy peas on the first visit which was lovely and went back for breakfast the day after. The gentleman that served us was really helpful and lovely to chat to.

What a lovely tearoom. Based in “Nora Battys house” from Last of the summer wine, it has lots of memorabilia set around the tearoom.Very quaint setting with really friendly staff. We had the afternoon tea and it was amazing.Super tasty, lots of delicious treats that certainly filled myself and hubby up.The restroom was very clean and quaint with original features, you really felt you was stepping back in time. Upon leaving the tearoom you walk down the iconic steps where Nora Batty would hit Compo over the head with her broom.Great Covid restrictions.

Visited the Wrinkled Stocking as was staying next door a couple of time - for a couple of their takeaway trays and again for breakfast and was seriously blown away - on the takeaway platters which I’d preordered a great selection of sandwiches and savoury treats which were delicious. This caused us to try breakfast - incredibly impressed by the friendly staff who even brought out a bowl of sausages for the dogs before serving us with one of the best hot chocolates ever followed by a deliciously tasty couple of breakfasts - all great value for money A great atmosphere and would definitely recommend and will be returning

We came away to Holmfirth for a weekend away with our dog Winnie. The wrinked stocking tearoom was a very short distance away from where we were staying so we popped in for a breakfast. The tearoom is dog friendly and we were greeted by friendly staff on our arrival to the tearoom. As we looked at the choices as to what to have for breakfast our teas and coffee arrived with a bowl of chopped sausage for our dog. A really lovely touch and our dog thoroughly enjoyed it! I had a small breakfast and my husband had the batty big breakfast to set us up for a day of walking. The breakfast was delicious and excellent value for money. The staff were friendly and even pointed us in the right direction of some lovely local walks to do. Highly recommend.

Had a lovely breakfast here, very good value for money too. The breakfast we had included unlimited tea or coffee, a glass of orange juice and preserves. Food was cooked perfectly and the service was very good, one of the nicest breakfasts I’ve had in a long while and they have had browns which for me is excellent news. Thanks, we will be back the next time we are in Holmfirth

Our first time here. 3 adults 3 children and 3 dogs ! The staff were so welcoming and friendly we were instantly hit with a warm welcome, not just to us but to our dogs as well. The staff gave us sausages and a bowl of water for our dogs. The food was lovely very reasonably priced and food quality was great. (The afternoon tea looked amazing) I have not complaints for this place and I am already planning my next visit. I would 100% recommend.

Lovely food, friendly welcome and a great cup of coffee. Nothing to fault at all 10/10. Hope to be back again.

This is a charming traditional tea shop which serves wonderful breakfasts. It also sells delicious cakes and I had a bjg scone which was just the right texture and served with generous amounts of jam and cream that came in dishes. It's chintzy which it is supposed to be and it's just right for its setting next door to Norah Batty's house. There are child friendly and gluten free options and it was nice to see families enjoying themselves along with their dogs who are welcomed. If you are looking for good food and a traditional tea room experience this is the place.

We visited the Wrinkled Stocking for the second time last week. It is a lovely cafe, in what looks loke an old house. Very homely and with good seating. The food was just as good as the first time we visited. A really good choice of hot and cold snacks and cakes. everything home-made. The last time we had two of their home-made cakes. This time we opted for the hot rolls. My wife had the roast pork with apple sauce. I had the turkey, cranberry and stuffing. Both rolls were filled to overflowing and came with gravy as well. Really nice food and good value for money and the staff are really friendly. Top marks. We will definitely visit again.

Absolutely fantastic place. A good variation on the menu and the owner was more than happy to adjust to dietary requirements. Such beautiful food and great value. Lovely attentive service without being overbearing. My son said it was the best chip butty he had ever had and my mum the best egg and chips she had ever had. I personally admired the fried eggs, cooked to perfection and not at all greasy. Lovely idea of a children’s hot chocolates with the “works” at only £1.50 - one of the children’s cake free with the meal.We travelled an hour to specifically come here and it was so worth it. Lovely and clean and will be visiting again in the summer.

Visited today, for lunch, with my one year old daughter. The food was fresh, tasty, and well presented. The ‘proper chips’ were amazing! The gentleman working up front, couldn’t have been more helpful - he offered a highchair without me asking, and helped with getting the pram out when I left. He also set the tea pot down on the table, well out of reach of my daughter - unfortunately, this doesn’t come as standard in a lot of establishments, so this small , considerate act is always appreciated. I also noticed they had a shelf full of children’s books - such a nice touch. I didn’t have time to stay for cake, but will certainly be making a return visit - they looked amazing!

Was really looking forward to going but it was not open at 1000am despite website saying it was, half term school holidays so owners must have had a break, so had to go to to Ribbles nearby which was absolutely fantastic

We’ve visited here a few times but unfortunately have stopped going now as feel children really are not welcome. The food is lovely (especially the soup) but one experience put me off going in which my toddler poured the sugar packets from the pot, I left them out for her to play with (not all of them of course) as she was simply lining them up. After a few minutes the woman owner (apologies I don’t know names) told the male to tidy it all up which meant leaning over us and then made my daughter upset. I would’ve of course tidied them up Before we left and did say this at the time. Also found conversation quite hard with the staff and felt like we where a burden for having children there. Again I cannot rave about the food enough but I won’t be visiting again until my children are much older

What a lovely cafe this is. The staff are excellent and the breakfast is very good. This cafe is next door to Nora Battys home in last of the summer wine so the inside of the cafe has old photos from the show. We'll be going again next time visit holmfirth we really enjoyed it.

My girlfriend and I visited the cafe with our 10month old son on a Saturday afternoon. The staff were really accommodating and helpful to get us settled with a highchair and parking the pram. The scone was nice with plenty of jam and cream. The cafe is homely and clean, but aware the toilet is up the steep stairs on the first floor. We only popped in for coffee and cake but would definitely visit again.

This is a must for anyone visiting holmfirth it’s food is beautiful great choice of cakes ice cream main meals something for everyone the staff is brilliant and so helpful wil always return hear

Such a good meal, felt and tasted really home cooked. I had the broccoli and stilton soup and it was absolutely delicious, best I've had. Boyfriend went for the gravy beef barn and that was really good too. The homemade short bread which came with out cups of tea where to die for aswel. Well worth a visit.

Best coffee in Holmfirth? quite possibly. Dennis & Jackie always make you feel very welcome and the food is consistently delicious. The cappuccino is a favourite of mine and i always enjoy visiting and sat near the fire on a cold Holmfirth day. Recommended.

I found it very depressing and dark . Although the cake and coffee were ok I did find some fluff/cotton in my cafe .

Nice man let us sit by the fire but had also cleaned a table for us if we’d chose to eat there. Quite unusual for people to clean without being asked!!

The restaurant was not open. We traveled a long way from Pennsylvania to England and then traveled by train and bus across England to get to eat at this tea room. We tried 2 different days to see if it was open with no success.

Had breakfast this morning as a party of 4 . We had a fantastic breakfast and the dogs were given sausages cut up on their own bowls. Lovely coffee and tea. Friendly and chatty service.

I traveled from Pennsylvania with my husband , with one of my destinations being The Wrinkled Stocking. To arrived mid-week and find it closed, was so disappointing.

Stopped off in Holmfirth today on our way back home from a week in the peak districts. We were looking for a suitable cafe that would allow 2 large dogs, we also had with us a grouchy 2 yr old.

Visited with our dog who was very welcome.

The Breakfast was very good friendly staff and very good value clean and tidy would recommend when you come to Holmfirth

Me and three friends visited yesterday before heading for a wedding dress session.

It does what he says on the tin. It is a cafe more than a tearoom and does the cafe food well. I wouldn’t rave about it. Could do with a little facelift and could be a little bit cleaner. But overall it was okay.

This lovely cafe is situated in Nora Batty's house.

We visited here whilst passing through having read a few previous reviews. We found it so welcoming and friendly. The menu was plentiful and the cakes looked delicious. We had the ploughman's lunch and a brie, bacon and cranberry panini. The food was delicious and it filled our plates. The lovely male member of staff also brought some chopped up sausage for our dog. Would definitely eat here again if in the area. Right next door to Norma's steps too put the back

We went for breakfast as a family with our dog. Lovely people, lovely setting, lovely food. They even brought out chopped up sausage for the dog!

good menu choice,quiet atmosphere,ideal for walkers on their way through,dog friendly and pleasant staff

we had lunch recently, and was excellent - a separate gluten free menu, food tasted great and staff were very friendly, and added bonus of a great location and enjoyed the whole experience - and would recommend with no hesitation, and would 100% return when in Holmfirth

Popped in here for a quick coffee before we visited the Summer Wine Exhibit next door. What a lovely old fashioned place the staff were so pleasant and the food looks scrumptious. We met another couple in there and ended up having an hilarious afternoon. Much recommended

I popped into here this morning just after it opened having been looking all over for somewhere open.I had a lovely pot of tea and mushrooms on toast with really good brown bread and even a salad garnish.the owner told me that normally if i had knocked when he was in early he would have opened for someone but was cleaning up after a party.A really welcoming place.Beware though as they close at 3 p.m.

Mega breakfast and bottomless teapot , didn't have any cake but they looked gorgeous. We sat with a legend , will definitely be back very soon x

Called here for lunch before we were at a cousin's birthday event later that evening, and its really nice. Not big inside but it's a very charming place with last if the summer wine memorabilia about, the people who run and own it are really really nice and the portions are really big as well which I love, i had a sandwich which comes with a lovely salad with nice dressing and crisps with it, my wife had a panini which was like a foot long with lots of beautiful filling on it and also comes with a salad, two other meals we had was chips covered in cheese and chilli, lots of it, and a quiche as well with salad all perfect which was made even better by the staff there as they were amazing. Highly recommend this place

I called into this place because i wanted to see compo house and nora batty i had afternoon tea for one which was very nice,staff friendly and polite.

We were looking for a café to have a sandwich lunch and had called at two other cafés before choosing this one. One only did toasties and cakes and the other busy doing cooked food, so we went across the road and saw a large menu outside The Wrinkled Stocking advertising sandwiches as well as cooked food so we went in.

I treated my 75 year old Mum to afternoon tea, we both thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was fresh & the service was spot on. We shall be returning.

I recommend anyone visiting the Wrinkled Stocking. A lovely little tea room in beautiful Holmfirth. The afternoon tea and cappuccino are favourites and hosts Dennis & Jackie are so nice and welcoming. Recommended.

We went twice during our visit. Jackie is really welcoming and the food is wonderful. Large portions at great prices. Homemade cakes, big brekkies, and just real good food. The full English breakfast' also come with unlimited tea/coffee & also orange juice. It's shabby chic decor is inviting & a local artist sells his pictures, which are part of the decor along with images of The Last of The Summer Wine characters. If you want a relaxed, friendly place with great food, this is your place! Don't forget to sip your tip from the saucer, just like Compo (sorry Jackie but it's a must lol).

Enjoyed lunch here, yes it was fairly busy but staff friendly and service very good.

Excellent and friendly service great to met up with the owners please keep in touch! Safe journey back to LONDON

Had a lovely breakfast here that was all cooked perfect and was really good value for money, the orange juice was a nice touch at no extra cost and having unlimited tea/coffee jams/ butter for toast and more all the extra little things like that made it so nice we never had to ask for a thing as it was all thought about, really good service and beautiful place definitely a visit worth making if your in the area we will definitely pop in again when in the area, thank you.

Called in this week whilst in Holmfirth. Was ok but nothing amazing, table next to us did have a breakfast order and that did look good but we had come a little later on and ordered off lunch menu. Staff were great but feel food didn't really blow me away. Next time might arrive earlier and try breakfast!

Staying locally at friends we thought we would treat ourselves to Sunday breakfast.

Just stopped by for a bowl of soup and a cake or two. Very friendly service and excellent food. And they gave a sausage to our dog :)

Do not visit Holmfirth and leave without visiting this little gem. There were 7 of us tucking into full English breakfasts. The food and service was outstanding. We each had variations to the menu but non of this was a problem. The staff engaged in conversation and a little banter which we all enjoyed. A must for a revisit when next in the area.

Lovely little cafe, loved having tea served in the quaint proper little tea pots. The cakes looked really nice and next time will definitely have food! Decor was lovely, almost like something from a Beatrix Potter book (meant in the most complimentary way possible). Particularly wanted to mention how nice it was to have all the little handy stuff in the bathroom, everything & anything you could want for! I think it’ll be a regular for us as we often come to holmfirth x

Walked down the hill from our hotel and was desperate for a drink so popped in as this was the first place we came across, not disappointed. My friend had homemade soup which was beautiful and I had lemon and ginger cake with a cuppa.... amazing! If I'm ever in this part of the country again I will certainly be visiting again.

As a fan of Last of the Summer Wine enjoye seeing where it was filmed. Dropped into Syds Cafe wher staff was helpful with information. Visited Nora and Compos homes which is now a B&B; and a Summer Wine museum. Went to there local unfortunately now closed down. Holmfirth is a lovely Village to visit.

We called here for an afternoon snack during a weekend visit to Holmfirth. We sat at a table and waited a long time before anyone came over to us. We then asked for a menu, and the gentleman there brought us one, but did not bother to take away a used coffee cup that had been left on the table. We went to the counter to order a sandwich for my husband and a scone with jam and cream for myself, and 2 teas. Our order came, and the gentleman then took away the dirty cup. My scone was rather hard and was very dark brown underneath. Very disappointing. My husband though said his sandwich was very nice, though the salad leaves accompanying it looked very wilted.

Fleeting visit, ideally located near centre of Holmfirth. Nora Batty’s house next door and Last of the Summer Wine museum underneath. Clean tea room friendly staff and the food looked great!

We only went in for a Sunday morning coffee but we were amazed at the quality and huge quantity of food on the breakfast plates being served. If we hadn't already had ours, then this would have lasted us all day. All food cooked as ordered, so be prepared for a short wait !! Photos of Nora Batty and Compo on the walls which take you back to that great BBC programme.

Really like this place. The owners are lovely and the food is always nice. You get a decent pot of tea!! What’s not to like?

Five of us turned up. Five different breakfasts ordered. All lovely and fabulously priced. One of the best bacon rolls ever.A top spot in a town not short of places to eat.

Enjoyed a hearty breakfast in this charming cafe. Well cooked food at a reasonable price and unlimited tea or coffee.

Lovely breakfast and very good, friendly service - if this was the small breakfast you'd have to be Desperate Dan to eat the large one! Called back later for a slice of cake to take away to our bolt hole next door but one. No need to venture further than TWS, it delivers on all fronts.

Lovely food, great atmosphere and always a pleasure to visit. Their coffee is great and the portions generous. Highly recommended.

We went for afternoon tea which was beautiful staff was very obliging nothing was too much trouble will defo go again

Such a lovely little gem, enjoyed tea and cake, with a proper tea cup and saucer, in lovely shabby chic surroundings. Very friendly, would highly recommend.

Stopped off here on a bus trip and went for a cup of tea and a fresh cream scone after visiting the exhibition.

My hubby had breakfast and was not impressed it says sausage sauced local but tasted like cheap morrisons. I ordered pie and peas, tge pork pie had been heated in tge microwave and was soggy and hardly any peas and barly warm. Was very dissapointed..

Went this morning (Sunday). We parked nearby so only a short walk. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. We’d booked a table for 4 which was ready and was situated in a little side room which was nicely decorated and warm.

Three of us had afternoon tea. Everything was home-made and delicious. Can't wait to eat there again. Not sure if there was a downstairs washroom, but if you had mobility problems the stairs would be a problem.

Stopped here for drinks prices about average and although the waitress said she was quite new to the job she was very friendly and helpful.

Stopped here for refuelling prior to climbing Holme Moss. Almost didn't after seeing the naff name but glad I did. Good range of snacks and cakes in a cosy tea room. Good service and well presented fresh food at a reasonable price. I was all ready for the climb after my pasty!

Called in for coffee after visiting Nora Battys Steps next door, did not eat on this occasion but the coffee was very good, service was fast and the gentleman serving very nice.

My brother had worked frequently in Holmefirth and during a visit there with him and his wife he recommended we have breakfast at The Wrinkled Stocking. We were not disappointed, the breakfast was very good and plentiful. The gentleman who served us was very pleasant and even though it got quite busy nothing was too much trouble. Thanks Doug

Had one of the best gluten free breakfasts I've ever had here. Delicious, well cooked and plenty of it! Friendly, warm and welcoming. All at a great price. Would definitely recommend The Wrinkled Stocking!

As a group of friends we had varied tastes, from cake to quiche, with special dietary requirements. Nothing was too much hassle, great customer service.

Popped in for a lovely hot latte and piece home made cake we had our pooch with us and the owner popped a box of doggy treats on the table for him too...lovely friendly staff and very helpful with our requests..l

We were in Holmfirth for ten days which provided ample opportunities to dine at The Wrinkled Stocking. The atmosphere is great, the staff outgoing and competent, and the food is fabulous. If you want the traditional full English breakfast; this is the place! Do not leave without trying their various desserts. I am back home in the States now and homesick already for Holmfirth and The Stocking!

We called in for a full English, very nice. For 6.50 you get Orange juice, unlimited tea or coffee, bacon, egg, beans, sausage , grilled tomato toast jam and butter. Very very nice breakfast, will call again.

Staff very friendly, & always make you feel welcome. Lovely selection of cakes, & great menu, food always lovely. Dog's are welcome in the wrinkled stockings tea room, which they also get a treat. Highly recommend.

Went here on a wet Sunday for lunch. Had homemade soup, served in a cup, which I am not a fan of. The bread was a bit old. The chips were ok.

Went here in homage to Nora, but it’s not just for the super-fan. Excellent food and service, and very cosy. Batty’s breakfast was vast & tasty.
