Lovely cafe in the centre of Scarborough! We saw this place last year on our visit and made a note of it for when we came back. Popped in today and we loved it! Ordered an iced oat vanilla latte and an apple juice. We had two very tasty cakes - lemon cake and a raspberry/white chocolate cake. Friendly staff and lovely decor. Will be back when we’re next in Scarborough!

Excellent coffee shop. The food was 10/10 and the coffee was brilliantly made. The atmosphere was lovely, contemporary and calm. Service was very good. Definitely a must try if you are visiting the area. Sorry no food pictures as the food was so good it didn't hang around enough for a picture opportunity!

This quaint corner of joy in Scarborough is best described as a Goldilocks cafe; just right and plucked straight from a fairytale! From the warm atmosphere created by the owner, underscored by the gentle music and rustic yet modern decorations, just out of sight from the hustle and bustle yet not without its own distinct shine; its lovely to see the other business owners and regular customers come in for a chat, and watch the everyday life unfold as it shakes off the night. This doesn’t even begin to cover the delicious coffee’s served as well as the just right sandwiches (Focaccia), which leave a magical taste lingering in your mouth. I would definitely recommend coming here in the morning to take in the lovely atmosphere of this charming alley as it spurs to life.

I’m a regular here because the coffee is really good, the cakes and pastries are to die for and the team are always friendly welcoming and helpful. It’s also always spotlessly clean and has a lovely chilled feeling.

Great little coffee shop on Bar street. They have a small menu of freshly baked focaccia sandwiches which were amazing. Good selection of delicious cakes too and the coffee was excellent. Highly recommended

A go-to destination when in the area, excellent Focacia-based sandwiches, choice of cakes and incredibly good coffee/espressos, (the real one, short, strong, balanced taste). The owner and staff should be proud.

My favourite cafe in Scarborough. Very relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff. The coffee is delicious and I can't say which cake is best since they all are so tasty.

Honestly the best place in scarborough and I'm so happy they're opening Mondays (the one day I'm not at work!) The food is incredible and the people who work there are so nice. Would love some stronger WiFi but I feel like they're limited by the location.

We liked the look of this coffee bar so decided to pop in, we had coffee and cake really nice, after reading the information on the menu booklet about how Katie founded this place and how she makes fresh bread of which we could she her making it, i decided to have one of their sandwiches, you could tell straight away it was made with passion, you could easily sense from the decor and most importantly what they make and the quality of what they serve this place will guarantee satisfaction! Definitely a place yo visit you won't be disappointed!

In a town with faded Victorian glories, this place stands out with great coffee, cakes and it’s signature focaccia sandwiches. A breath of fresh air in this town.
