Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Cowthorpe

"Wapentake is a café, pub and bakery designed to create a little piece of Yorkshire. Although I think of Wapentake as more of a pub than a café in that they serve up local beers, Yorkshire puddings (and Yorkshire pudding burgers!), and crisp butties, they absolutely function as a café too. They focus on all things local, with coffee from a family-run company in Skipton called Coffee Care, tea from Taylors of Harrogate and all cakes are baked on site."

"If you don’t mind going a little out of your way to find a great Leeds coffee shop, you should hunt out Cafe 164, in their little nook on the ground floor of Munro House. Expect all kinds of sandwiches, salads and cakes, which are the ideal accompaniment to their mighty fine coffee. Their house blend has been made to complement the food but they also use a range of local and national independent suppliers, from Leeds’ North Star and Maude to Casa Espresso in Bradford and Bruce and Luke’s in Cumbria."

"Cafe 164 is set within The Gallery at 164, so you can tie a trip to this Leeds coffee shop with a browse around the latest exhibition!. It’s a great spot for lunch, selling sandwiches (not just your run-of-the-mill ones either!), soups and salads but also a hot special which is constantly changing. Their bread is hand mixed, hand shaped and hand cut and they have an onsite focaccia and ciabatta bakery."

"Serving speciality espresso based coffees from a range of local and independent suppliers, Cafe 164 provides a great array of choice, including rotations from North Star Coffee, Bruce and Luke's, Casa Espresso and Maude Coffee. Visit: Munro House, Duke Street, LS9 8AG - cafe164.com"

"Having enjoyed such success in neighbouring Leeds, hummus bar Humpit has brought their falafel and pitta packs to the streets of York. Opened in February 2018, Humpit has already established itself as a firm favourite with the city’s student scene. One of their filled pittas will set you back £4.50 and comes loaded with falafels, hummus, salad and pickles."

"Head to Church Street to Humpit, the Hummus and Pita Bear where the menu is totally vegan!. Their menu has three items; salad bowls, hummus bowls and loaded pitas. You can choose your ingredients for the salad bowl, and the hummus bowls and loaded pitas come with chickpeas, pickles, olives, falafel and more."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. The Humpit began in 2014 with a dream to create real authentic hummus and to be able to enjoy it with a warm pita. Five years later, the Humpit has established itself in the York community."

"You don’t have to miss out on all the delicious donuts in Leeds thanks to Wildcraft Bakery. They make proper, yeast-risen fried donuts, so you can enjoy all of the naughtiness with none of the gluten. Their delightfully fluffy dough brings together a blend of rice flour and tapioca with water, eggs and sourdough yeast."

"Unit 13, Penraevon Industrial Estate, Leeds LS7 2AWLeeds’ gluten-free bakery also serves up vegan doughnuts, whoopie pies and other treats from their shop just outside the city centre."

"No trip to Harrogate is complete without a visit to Bettys – the popular tearoom has been part of the town since 1919. As well as the traditional afternoon tea and fat rascals, you can also get food ranging from fish and chips to eggs benedict."

"Stage Espresso and Brewbar is a brainchild of Martyn and Matt Jakeman, two brothers who wanted to share their love of coffee with the masses. They specialise in single-origin coffee, so everything you order, whether it’s a flat white, a split shot or a cappuccino, will be made with beans from an individual or small group of farms. The venue itself is petite, with just a small amount of seating, but it’s a cosy place to while away the hours – and if you get hungry, you can indulge in fresh sandwiches or cakes from Tarte and Berry."

"The Station House Garforth is a true taste of traditional Italian!. With southern Italian inspired dishes based on secret family recipes its not one to be missed!.

"It’s a straight-forward kebab shop, with a traditional menu. You can choose from doner, chicken, seekh and lamb shish – they’ll stuff it in a pitta or pile it on chips before sprinkling it with salad and smothering it in sauce. But if that isn’t your bag, you can also tuck into a menu of burgers, pizza and chicken."
