A very popular spot on a sunny day, this cafe is on the banks of the river in Knaresborough at the Lido. There is seating outside with fab views of the river by or you can sit inside. The cafe is above ground level with a flight of steps and this also where the toilets are situated. I had a really good cup of tea and a tub of strawberry icecream with a flake. The cakes looked amazing! Staff are lovely!

Brought Toto here for a treat. The food was lovely and the service great. Such an idyllic spot next to the river. They made such a fuss of toto which of course he loved. Loves the attention that one! We will come back again in the spring and summer.
