The eggs bene croissant was the standout. Perfectly runny yolk on a buttery, flaky croissant base. The hollandaise had a nice sharpness to it. The maple chai latte was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the spice blend was good.

Nice spot for people-watching from the first floor. Coffee was decent.

A lovely, cosy spot. The coffee was spot on, and my dish was gorgeous &ndash; a bit too much for me, honestly. Had a nice glass of red with it that worked surprisingly well.

Love that they have non-dairy milk. The almond croissants were a real treat. Staff were lovely when I asked about gluten-free options, very helpful.

A lovely, welcoming cafe with the sweetest dog pictures on the wall.

We spent the weekend in York and ate twice at the Malmaison bar and grill. Both occasions were perfect, great customer service and great food, just what we wanted

The nut-based blueberry cheesecake was a nice surprise. Really rich and creamy. Got it to go during a quick lunch break, perfect for a sweet treat.

Finally got around to trying their Sunday roast. The beef was so tender it just fell apart, and those roast potatoes were crispy on the outside, fluffy inside. The gravy was spot on too. Properly hit the spot on a grey Sunday.

Came here for breakfast and the staff were so friendly! I had the avocado toast with a poached egg, and the yolk was just runny enough. It&#39;s a cosy spot, really enjoyed it.

Popped in for a coffee and ended up staying for lunch. The shortbread is seriously moorish, couldn&#39;t stop at one piece. Brownies were a solid follow-up. Just a nice, simple spot.

The kids&#39; menu here is solid, my little one actually ate his chicken bites. Clean loos with a changing table too, makes things easier.

Been coming here for years, and the breakfast is always spot on. It&rsquo;s the consistency that keeps me coming back. Gets busy, so you might have to queue a bit, but that&rsquo;s part of it.

A really nice spot to unwind. The no-laptops rule is great, it keeps the place feeling calm and social. The staff were very friendly and made sure I was comfortable. A lovely, quiet atmosphere for a relaxed lunch.

Loved the cheese scone here. So warm and flaky, it just hit the spot on a grey afternoon. The whole place has this lovely, slightly odd charm.

Service was top-notch, they really took my nut allergy seriously. Food was fresh and came out at a good pace. The wine list had some interesting local options that paired nicely with the main.

This place is my go-to for a quick lunch. The brie and bacon panini is spot on every time. Coffee&#39;s always hot and ready. In and out in 20 minutes. Perfect for a busy day.

Got here early to beat the rush. Coffee&#39;s top notch, honestly some of the best around. Pastries looked amazing, grabbed a croissant. Quick and easy for a morning pick-me-up.

This place is a proper hidden gem. Loved the steak wrap, it was a great meal. The space feels really cosy and unpretentious, perfect for a casual drink with friends.

The QR ordering made breakfast super quick before our day out.

The rooms are a good size and the beds are really comfy! Perfect for a group of friends. The ensuite showers are fantastic. My room&#39;s extractor fan was a bit noisy, but it didn&#39;t spoil the stay.

Lunch stop. Staff were super friendly and quick, which was a relief with a hungry kid in tow. They even sorted out a little extra cheese on his pasta without any fuss. Made the whole thing easy.

Portions were just right, not too heavy. The shepherd&#39;s pie was really satisfying, had it for a late lunch. The lasagna was good too, solid spot for a casual bite.

Popped in for a quick lunch. The green salad was the highlight for me &ndash; the lettuce and cherry tomatoes tasted so fresh and crisp. Just what I needed. The staff were very friendly, as always. A reliable spot for a simple, healthy bite.

The fish was incredibly fresh, just caught this morning. The texture was firm yet delicate, and the simple lemon butter sauce really let the natural flavour shine. Could have used a bit more seasoning for my taste, but the quality of the fish itself was undeniable.

Been coming here for years, and the Adana kebab is always spot on. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.
