An impromptu visit to the coffee shop today! We were looking for a local cafe to meet up and found this hidden gem! It was very busy but we managed to get a table. The food from the neighbouring tables looked good! We ordered a meal deal consisting of a sandwich (comes with salad/crisps), cake and hot drink. A waitress came to take our order. We couldn’t believe how popular it was and how reasonable the prices were. When the food came, the portions were generous!! The food was fresh and tasty. We couldn’t eat the cake and asked for a box to take home. The staff were friendly and we will definitely return again. They had seating outside and also dog friendly! We will peruse the garden centre too as ran out of time today!!

A great little find! We love popping in for a bit of lunch before heading just down the road to feed the ducks! Really good value for money (sandwich, drink and cake for £6 is a total bargain!) Dog and child friendly too. Staff always friendly

Was recommended to me and wasn't disappointed only had coffee and cake but couldn't eat it all such a large portion only gripe was too much butter cream on the cake and what a lovely gesture to give our doggy a sausage he really enjoyed it.

Found the place via Google maps, what a gem .we had coffee and scones which were delicious, the coffee wasn't very hot but we shall definitely come again.

Super busy but really friendly staff. Cake portions are enormous and fabulous value!!

The 2nd time we've been on a weekend and not got served. Yes there are a good few people but was there half an hour and overlooked and our order wasn't taken. Have been coming regularly for years.

First rate cafe, with very reasonable prices for excellent food. The service was very friendly and entertaining and all in all the experience was very, very good. I would certainly recommend the Askham Grange Gerden Centre, cafe and coffee bar to anyone and everyone. It’s definitely worth a drive out to give it a try.

Very friendly, super cake and coffee, great service. Will be visiting again

Lovely little cafe coffee shop,also does food eat in or take out. Service is excellent, and friendly staff look after your order with care and consideration. Situated in the nursery belonging to askham Grange prison. Well worth a visit👍

I went to the cafe on a recce a week before I wanted to have a family brunch there. I booked a table for the following Sunday. There was no problem, I was told, and booked for 6 at midday. We all went to the cemetery on Mother’s Day the next week, and then arrived, only to be told, in a packed cafe that the boss had cancelled our table but did not let us know. Apparently we could have a free drink as a compensation. We were furious. It took us a great deal of time and effort to find another venue that could take us on this special day. I will never recommend them, nor will I ever go back. Thank you for your reply. I was not to know the member of staff was new. As you could not contact me, perhaps that was the time to honour the commitment. Those other people who tried to book were given the correct information and so had time to make other arrangements.

Lovely place run by lovely people. The jacket potatoes were very filling and very good value. We had a meal deal but were too full to eat the cake so we took them home to enjoy later. The photograph of the cake is just one portion! The cafe is dog friendly and the staff gave our little dog a sausage so he was happy too 🙂.

Had thought they did breakfast but just sausage and bacon sandwich or very cooked scramble eggs on toast. Dogs made very welcome. Won't be rushing back for the food or the garden centre. Maybe it was just not the best time of year

Love love love this place but so does everyone it would appear on our last visit on Friday. This was the first time we didn't manage to get a table inside and not quite the reliable weather to sit out yet. So we had to go find somewhere else sadly. Think this says enough about the place and it's a shame it's not a little bit bigger! Fantastic food, cakes, drinks and staff. Always get a lovely welcome and the prices are amazing too. We also love the little shop and garden centre too. Hope we manage to get a table next time we visit.

A great little Cafe, lovely staff telling you the best specials. The prices are very realistic. Very clean inside. Lots of cyclists use this cafe. If you out Ascam Richard way this is a great little café to call into.

Could not fault this place delicious sandwich cake and coffee served efficiently by friendly staff. Champion

An absolute gem. My friend discovered the coffee shop some time ago. The establishment is clean offering light snacks and the most delicious selection of cakes. Coffee and Walnut is my favourite. The ladies serving are pleasant and knowledgable of the product. Well done to all concerned.

Just wanted to leave a 5* review of the cafe - We stumbled across it by chance, en route to the coast. It was extremely good value - The food was served very quickly & was inexpensive. We were given a warm welcome and lunch was delicious. NB The cake portion was huge! ;) *Parking is limited as on street only *

We have only just found this coffee shop had tea coffee and cakes and will definitely visit again the sandwiches and salads looked lovely and proper Yorkshire portions

Called in for a coffee today for a break on a cycle ride from York. A delightful place to visit excellent coffee, amazing cakes, great refreshments and definitely good value for money - add friendly staff into the equation and The Grange Coffee Shop is a winner!

What a beautiful experience it was. Staff were unbelievably friendly. The Carrott cake was simply amazing. The portion was on the larger than expected however not going to complain about it. Strongly recommend a visit here.

As I work in the local area and break times are limited (live in carer) I popped to this place with client and daughter and it was amazing, the staff here of course are connected to the grounds of Askham Grange (please google) and they are lovely, the food here is so good, it really is, you have to go there and try it for yourself if you don't believe me, the meal deals are so good and very value for money, the food tastes great and there isnt too much in the menu where you feel overwhelmed, the portion of the cake sizes are indeed intended for just 1 person but if your feeling generous the portion could easily do 2 people, (I didn't share🤣) the staff here are friendly, so lovely to chat to and kind.... you almost forget where the center is (again google) it's easy to get to however parking may be a bit of an issue as its so popular it does get busy, I arrived just before 13.00 and found 1 parking space, you can park right outside the center which is good, there is no allocated car park so its a 1st come 1st get parked basis, absolutely give it a try and you won't be disappointed, there are toilets on site and you van have a winder around, plants, soil, various bird food, seeds etc are sold here so it's an all rounder really,

I've cycled through Askham Richard a few times, without stopping here, but after reading the reviews I gave it a try. I had the sandwich, drink and cake for £6, which is brilliant value and very tasty. The service was quick, even though it was getting busy. I'll be back. Thanks.

This really is a little gem. I have visited with my husband before and today took two friends . Everyone was very impressed with the plants good quality and price , as for the little cafe really good food , friendly and helpful staff. Also noticed good wide iles great for wheel chair users and all in the flat, with a ramp up to cafe . Happy days for everyone 👍

Visited today and I couldn't let the day pass without writing a recommendation. Absolutely 5+ stars for this hidden gem! The food is fantastic and really plentiful! The staff are delightful, brilliant, welcoming and accepting. Mum is an older lady living with dementia and is often repetitive with limited vocabulary and sometimes people can be dismissive but boy! we were welcomed, she was appreciated by the staff and we all enjoyed each other's company. We were treated like family. On to the food which was incredibly well cooked, piping hot and lovely big portions. We even got a meal deal and took pudding home to enjoy later. We were asked would we come back...Absolutely! We will visit time and time again for the community, company, food and lovely experience! A thousand thank yous! x
