Yorkshire Dales café inside former sawmill praised as hidden gem

Published on

A cafe located in the Yorkshire Dales has earned recognition as an appealing discovery for visitors to the area.

The establishment, situated beside the entrance to the Ingleborough Estate Nature Trail, provides a convenient stopping point for walkers exploring the national park.

The Old Sawmill Café occupies a building that formerly functioned as a working sawmill, with the original equipment and historical features preserved within the interior.

This architectural heritage creates a distinctive atmosphere for patrons purchasing coffee, food, or refreshments.

The breakfast selection includes traditional choices such as a breakfast bap, eggs Benedict, and a waffle accompanied by Greek yoghurt, chia seeds, granola, banana, honey and raspberry coulis.

Midday offerings encompass burgers, paninis and various sandwiches with different fillings.

Those with a preference for sweet items can select from brownies and cheesecake slices.

A garden area overlooking the surrounding countryside provides outdoor seating when weather conditions permit.

The venue received coverage from TikTok creator Jodie Rapsonn, who evaluates coffee establishments throughout the United Kingdom.

According to her assessment, the establishment offers more than a standard coffee shop experience, with its historic setting and preserved machinery making it worth exploring while enjoying refreshments.

A brookie item sampled during the visit reportedly met expectations.

Visitors seeking a longer stay can choose an afternoon tea package featuring fresh scones, sausage rolls, pork pies, sandwiches and cake portions.

The café holds a 4.8 out of 5 rating on Tripadvisor, based on 563 customer reviews.

Patrons have described positive experiences, with one visitor noting enjoyment of a club sandwich containing bacon and chicken on grain sourdough bread, while their companion ordered beans with three slices of crispy bacon on the same bread base, accompanied by freshly cooked chips.

Another reviewer highlighted finding the venue during a holiday, praising a burger with chips and the daily soup, along with quality coffee and an extensive cake selection.
