    Lovely breakfast with good choices for something different, I haven't had bubble and squeak for years and it was delicious with the avocado and bacon. Full English was devoured by my husband. Such nice friendly people.

    I always try and find an independent coffee shop and I'm glad I stumbled across this one.....probably one of the best coffees I've had! I sat outside as I was on the phone and my coffee was bought out to me. Very pleasent and relaxed 😌

    Barking dog spoiled it.hatd to sit there and relax when a dog behind you just will not stop.owners need a plan to deal with this. And I like dogs,well behaved dogs,and coffee shop owners that think of all their guests. Plenty more nice places in Ilkley.

    We were seated even though we arrived about 20 minutes before close, which we know can be a pain, but we greatly appreciated - the cappuccinos we had were some of the best I've tasted, exactly the right amount of foam and very generous on the chocolate dusting! The tray bakes were also surprisingly delicious, we'll definitely be returning x

    Really lovely coffee spot!

    Ordered the muffin with poached eggs, sausage and bacon, with a cappuccino. The service was initially okay, but as soon as the food came, no one checked in or spoke to me once, even when I left. As for the food, the bacon was good, the poached eggs were hard and not runny and the sausage was small and a bit burnt. The coffee was very good and well presented. When I finished the food, the plate was just taken off the table, again with no interaction. I was asked to pay upfront and decided not to leave a tip initially, until I'd finished, I am glad I didn't tip now. I appreciate days like today can be busy, but getting the basics right and providing some level of customer service is important, especially when you are paying more premium prices. Maybe I slipped through the net today.

    Great cakes, excellent coffee and fantastic service with a smile! Happy to take individual cash payments from a large group,with no hint of a grumble.

    Best coffee / cafe in Ilkley !! Great friendly service, delicious coffee & breakfast muffins, dog friendly too - Also good to support an independent local business rather than global chains. Highly recommend a visit too Avanti next time you are in the area.

    Great food made freshly we had the Greek pitta special , it was delicious . The coffee really the best I have tasted . Service was great so friendly , loved the buzzing atmosphere . Each person at work added a great place to relax and enjoy . We called back for ice cream even though they were closing and waitress told she could go home , she stayed to serve us . We ate ice cream on terrace , saying we need to be back as soon as poss . Whoever owns this wonderful establishment , you have the best staff and food I have seen for some time thank you .

    Stopped for quick and light lunch. Got the daily soup (potato with rosemary) which comes with toasted bread (focaccia). Good value and nice seating.

    Indoor & outdoor dining. Lovely location in Ilkley. Service was excellent. Food cooked to order, so a little bit of a wait. Reasonable prices. Ilkley is a great town to visit.

  • 4/5 Philippa G. 1 year ago on Google
    Food excellent, however, very busy so service a little slow. Staff were very helpful and smiley though.

    Lovely breakfast, we had a classic and eggs Benedict and coffees, the staff were great and our dogs also got treats 😀

  • 5/5 Keith B. 11 months ago on Google
    Best coffee house we visited on our trip to UK, food amazing, staff can't do enough for you, and the food/snacks to die for.

  • 4/5 Fran D. 1 year ago on Google
    Coffee good, but could do with an effective extractor fan. There was a great deal of steam, and a pronounced smell of fried bacon, which made it difficult to breathe at times. Probably better to visit in good weather and sit outside...

  • 4/5 Gil T. 11 months ago on Google
    Very pleasant cafe. Delicious mocha and a marvellous games shop round the corner. We returned the very next day for another cuppa!

  • 5/5 Sharon K. 11 months ago on Google
    Fantastic service, always checking for allergies and intolerances for food orders. Breakfast piping hot and perfectly poached eggs. Highly recommended 👌

  • 3/5 Samantha H. 1 year ago on Google
    We love coming to this friendly little cafe in ilkley,the service & hospitality is fantastic, the only issue I have is that you don't do a wheat free menu, your actually missing a trick,you could serve jacket potatoes with a side salad or other fillings which i know you do in toastys or basic sandwiches,iv known places charge up to £8.50 for a meal of this,I would be happy to purchase this 👍 not everyone wants a sandwich,hope you might take this into consideration...thank you ...

    I love it here, friendly service, gorgeous coffee, milkshakes & pancakes for the children 😋

  • 5/5 Richard U. 1 year ago on Google
    Always amazing at Avanti. Can highly recommend the breakfast pancakes with fruit and maple syrup.

  • 5/5 Gareth H. 2 years ago on Google
    The coffee is fresh, rich and such a depth of flavour, the menu is perfection in itself with a wide variety catering for all appetites. The desserts are pure decadance. Most of all, it's an experience of customer focussed enjoyment that is second to none. Forget the big High street brands, head here and enjoy a moment of peace & tranquillity, your mind, body and soul will thank you for it.

  • 5/5 Alex B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great coffee served quickly by staff and a good selection of cakes and hot food. Plenty of outdoor seating also available

  • 1/5 Weezle D. 2 years ago on Google
    Called In today to support a small local business. Was very disappointed. We were informed it was table service and asked as we sat, if we wanted menus. Despite not being very busy & there being several empty tables, these took 5 minutes to arrive and we waited another 10 in the hope of someone taking our order only to watch another couple sit and order almost straight away. When we tried to speak to the rather abrupt waiter, he said he had to put the order he’d just taken on his tablet ( which I assume was connected) inside and wouldn’t even answer a query. Needless to say we left

    We had a party of 7 and a dog and the staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating. Service was prompt and efficient with good value for money. I've visited Ilkely a number of times but never visited this cafe but it'll be a staple from now on.

👍 Food was delicious and the portions are reasonable. Service was good during our visit. Décor is very wild West and there are some good touches. Music was pretty loud inside and needs to be turned down. Overall a good experience
