We came upon this cafe while searching Helmsley for somewhere to eat. Having looked at a lot, hotels, cafes, Italian restaurant etc. we decided this filled the criteria we wanted, a good choice of menu, clean, tidy & popular with really competitive prices. 2 of us had quiche of the day ( broccoli & cheese) served with jacket potato, salad, coleslaw & crisps, it was an ample plateful which we couldn’t finish. Our husbands went for the cheeseburger with bacon, served with chips, salad & coleslaw. Both said their meals were delicious too but my hubby struggled with the amount of food. The portions are extremely good so I would recommend going when you are really hungry. It appeared that it was run by husband & wife team, wife cooking & husband serving, clearing & cleaning tables & making drinks. We were there about an hour, with a busy turnover of customers, some not getting in at all, approximately seating for 22-24 so timing is crucial, we bagged the last 2 pieces of quiche, which was lucky, so be warned.

An amazingly good meal . Everything just beautiful . Go , go , go ! Unfortunately , we couldn't stay as the bedrooms were fully booked , but I hope we can come back another time . We loved the meal , the wine pairing and the staff . One of the best meals we have had.

As part of that 'tasting menu' trend, if that's what you're after, you won't be disappointed. A lovely dining room, with semi-open kitchen and very attentive and knowledgeable staff. Crockery and artwork come from local creators, and adds to that 'local food producer' ethos. A destination eatery for grownups!

The cafe is really lovely and cosy and the staff so nice. We had intended having the proper breakfast which looked amazing but due to having a 3 course meal booked elsewhere early evening decided to just have a bacon sandwich which in itself was good and plenty of it but a big no no was it came on seeded bread. In my opinion bacon on seeded definitely is not on. My husband enjoyed both of them though. Please inform people that’s what it comes as I’m sure I’m not alone in thinking this. Otherwise lovely coffee and atmosphere

What a little gem of a place this was! I was looking to find somewhere a bit different and quirky to celebrate my sister’s birthday and this did not disappoint in any way! The cocktails were brilliant and the owner guided us in our choices. Intimate, great ambiance and the perfect choice for the start to our evening’s entertainment! Thank you!

We love Helmsley and fancied afternoon tea. Having tried to book at a couple of local places, we popped into Number 12 as we walked from the car park. I had afternoon tea, my husband had a farmhouse platter. Absolutely delicious, great value and huge portions. The ham was top quality, sausage rolls were delicious and I had the best treacle tart ever as part of the afternoon tea. Do go and eat there, you will not be disappointed!

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.

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.

We went for dinner for my birthday. The food and service was impeccable. A birthday card was signed by the manager, Liam, which was a lovely touch and made me feel very welcomed. Yes it is pricy, but for a special treat it was worth it. Everything, even from the bread rolls and butter to start were done to perfection. We had the lobster as a starter, the flavours were wonderful with the butternut squash. For our main I had the duck breast and my partner had the chicken. Again, the favours were perfect and cooked to perfection. My only feedback was the small portion, especially the chicken breast. As beautiful as it was, it could have done with some vegetables to make it a main dish, especially as my partner likes a hearty meal. We did order some chips on the side. The French fries were also perfect. To finish, I had the tiramisu, which was just gorgeous. My partner had the chocolate soufflé which he really enjoyed. The staff and serve was really professional, but also warm and welcoming. The venue overall was stunning. Thank you for making my birthday a special occasion. We will definitely be back again.

Arrived at 11.45 for a cuppa and a scone and took my place to order 2nd in the queue. There was a lady before me who had been waiting some considerable time. She asked me if she was invisible as not one member of staff had acknowledged her even though a lady was making drinks and clearly saw us waiting. Finally, after a further 20 mins our orders were taken by a surly young girl who's attitude I found very rude. So when my scones were thrust at me on 2 plates...no tray... I asked about my hot drinks, I was informed very rudely that they would be put on a table for me to collect. I asked about a tray but just got a withering look! So, my review is not based on the venue or the food which we ok I suppose but on the attitude of the staff. From being ignored to being treated very rudely. So this review is constructive criticism to please train your staff to be more customer friendly!
