if you like your coffee, then this is the only coffee shop to stop at, when in york! i love good coffee and the quality of the coffee from this café is exceptional! full roast coffee flavour, no bitter over roast/burnt coffee after taste! cute little rose garden outside seating area, and a few tables inside fab for grabbing a quick coffee en route to train station! which is how i found the place! they do there own freshly baked goods, scones fresh from the oven and a cup of good coffee will cheer up the most weary of travellers! its a little out of the way, but worth it. and price wise for quality of coffee, service and fresh baked products is far less expensive then the coffee shops intown. but please note there is normally only 1 person working so during busy periods there can be a wait on a dry day grab yourself a coffee and cake and take it to the museum gardens across the street for a little picnic, let the kids run riot(alittle) before returning to town, for more shopping!
