The best restaurants in England

We dropped in after scouring the railway vintage memorabilia shop for a coffee and cakes. A very warm welcome from the staff and from the wonderful coal fire. We enjoyed the railway theme of the cafe and they have various Wensleydale Railway items for sale, such as beer and engraved glass packs. The home baking was excellent and the coffee hot and flavoursome. A good selection of snacks. It's the sort of place where everyone is relaxed and conversations with other customers start. Great to see and hear the trains going by. Seats on the platform if you want to get closer to the action.

As a lover of food I have frequented many many street food stalls, this is the winner for my partner and I - be sure to check it out!

Quirky set up, great decor and convenient.We took an opportunity to pop in while on a family walk. Realising the time we decided to buy two children's lunches at £5.00 each. This got 1 slice of bread for the Jam sandwich, a pinch of kettle chips and approx table spoon worth of tomato and cucumber, finished off with a fork full of cake.In my opinion, incredibly overpriced when I realised the portion size.I had a latte, which I requested to be froth free. It wasn't.The carpets weren't great on the eye and felt a bit neglected, that said the quirky decor and crockery have potential.It felt like the front of house service lacked a host and was run by hard working 'Saturday' staff.I really wish local businesses all the success in the world and want to see them do well....sorry my review isn't 5 star...* one triangle of sandwich eaten in picture

Well worth the detour to what seems not to be an island but apparently is. There’s a lifeboat station at the end of the road, open on certain weekends for tours. The ferry was going over to Piel Island but we didn’t have time, just admired the views. Unfortunately the café was closed.

Lovely coffee friendly staff lovely place to visit. Has a pools and lots on the menu a great place for the kids lovely family day out very reasonable prices

I was hungry for fish after visiting the fish market with my mate Rick. They didn't do fish. That speaks volumes.

Our server was Jason who was absolutely lovely! Really made sure our visit was special. Didn’t know what to order and he gave me a great recommendation. Really lovely chap. Food was great too!

a great little hidden gem of a cafe, a great breakfast with good ingredients, we'll definitely be back

We had a table of 10 for a 90th birthday party. The staff welcomed us and waited on us hand and foot throughout the whole experience and were friendly and helpful. The chef cooked beautiful food and we were all very happy with our meals. 10/10!

My friend and I went to Lancing today with our babies (1 year old and 7 month old). We were made extremely welcome by the staff at the tea room. They couldn’t have been more accommodating. I had a cheese scone and it was both delicious and an extremely reasonable cost. The staff there were very friendly towards our babies and we will definitely going back! I would 100% recommend this to any families.

Offered to give me a free burger when card machine did not work. Food was delicious and the service was great too. Many thankss

Tasty food friendly staff and good value. Been a few time for breakfasts and baguettes for lunches. Nice to sit in and also takeaway.

Absolutamente me encanta este lugar. Naeem hace jugos increíbles y es tan comunitario. Una visita a Wholesome Juicery es un placer para el cuerpo, la mente y el alma.

On our way to an early kick off at Arsenal (stadium is very close). We normally have breakfast at the Wetherspoons, but for some inexplicable reason it was closed (on a match day morning?!). Am quite glad it was as we spotted this place just down the road, so gave it a try. Excellent full English breakfast, fresh cooked, tasty, chunky bread toast, good coffee. And a similar price to Wetherspoons, apart from no unlimited coffee refills, with lots of other choices. The lunch etc menu looked good and plentiful too. All served quickly and by friendly staff. Wetherspoons - I think you've lost our business on match days!

Absolute delight, a little gem. Great ambience, coffee, cake and staff. Undoubtedly worth a visit in a very friendly village.
