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.

See my below review following which the owner Rachel messaged me apologised that her trainee had made mistakes and invited us back . We came back today and true to her word she made us 2 of the best milkshakes we have ever had see my photos. Really really lovely My initial review- Expensive for a carton of orange and smallest milkshake for nearly £4 won't be coming again

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!

We had a Delicious cottage pie chips and veg and took some cake home for afters. Thank you ladies for all your hard work.

My dog absolutely loves it in here, the staff adore him too. So much so that it's a battle trying to walk past the place when it's closed. We only recently moved to Knaresborough, however this is one of our regular pit stops already.

Idyllic setting on the River Nidd. We walked from Knaresborough along the Riverside and stopped here for a coffee and a light snack before we returned the same way. Coffee was lovely but very small cups for the price. The staff were really lovely but very much run off their feet. The wait was quite long but we weren't in a hurry and it didn't matter too much. The view from the balcony is lovely, and there is a caravan park near to it. During the summer I'd imagine it gets extremely busy as it was quite busy on our visit in April. Overall good visit but just expected a bit of a wait.
