Best French Bakery in Whitwell-on-the-Hill

"When to go: Head down for a lazy brunch, take a book, order a large coffee, and while away a few hours. What to have: The partisan breakfast (meat, veggie and vegan available) cooked and served in a skillet, is comfort food at its best. For something a little lighter, try their Persian eggs with Medjoul dates and warming spices."

"09/05/2021: Had breakfast here a couple of times while staying in York. Absolutely fantastic food and great service. Best gluten free bread I have had and the cakes also great."

"Brew and Brownie fans will happily queue to sit in and enjoy the cracking coffee and delicious pancake stacks, but as it’s just across the road from the entrance to York Museum Gardens, why not order something to take away and enjoy in the Yorkshire sunshine?. Their sister cafe, Brew & Brownie Bakeshop, is just as lovely and they do takeaway salads, sandwiches and cakes too. Brew and Brownie, 5 Museum St, York YO1 7DT"

"Brew & Brownie have two locations in York, just doors apart from one another on Museum Street. One of the locations operates as a Bakeshop and the other as a great little cafe. Inspired by the seasons and the tastes from their countryside upbringings, the owners of Brew & Brownie serve a menu of sweet and savoury treats plus premium coffees and loose leaf teas."

"Cafe serving both breakfast and brunch with a variety of coffee, loose leaf teas and cakes. Chocolate survival boxes, coffee and Afternoon teas available for collection and delivery. Bakeshop open Monday-Sunday 9-4 and Cafe open Monday-Sunday 9:30-4."

"They’re renowned for their fancy afternoon tea, scrumptious cakes and desserts and lovely staff. While grabbing a table at Betty’s can often see you queuing for quite sometime (make sure to arrive much earlier than you anticipate on eating!); once inside, you’ll truly be spoiled for choice with the vast range of delicious lunch options available. I’d recommend: traditional afternoon tea, red pepper frittata or the Caesar salad."

"When anyone thinks of afternoon tea in York or even Yorkshire, probably the first name that springs to mind is Bettys. Going strong for over 100 years with queues out of the door come rain or shine, this very English institution ticks all the right boxes for a delicious afternoon tea. 6-8 St. Helen’s Square, York YO1 8QP – 01904 659142"

"What to have: Bettys are famous for their afternoon tea in York – a selection of classic sandwiches, miniature cakes, and a pot of tea. There is also a pink champagne or prosecco version, for those who want something a little stronger. No trip to York is complete without a trip to Bettys."

"A veggie and vegan paradise, this little deli-restaurant is strictly meat-free. Our personal favourite is the house Goji burger; a mushroom burger loaded with halloumi, salad and sweet potato wedges. There’s a sumptuous selection of cakes and little bits in the deli and even a breakfast menu, should you want to swing by on the way to work."

"An excellent vegetarian cafe, Goji is one of the city’s top-rated places to enjoy a vegan dish. This welcoming cafe is devoted to giving you healthy and sumptuous food, including vegan diets too. Having been providing the city with good food for a while now, this restaurant has a beautiful interior decor and a great atmosphere."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. Goji Café is a vegetarian café that also offers plenty of vegan dishes. Chef Wendy used to be a painter and now has a personal goal to make the customers’ day better by providing healthy food."

"Originally a fruit and veg shop, Mannion’s is now a no-reservations café and deli with queues out the door. Portions are generous so order one of the ginormous platters to share. All bread is made in house and the Welsh rarebit is a cheesy revelation."

"BrunchCharcuterieSmall PlatesInternationalCafeRestaurantYork. When to go: For a good catch up with an old friend. Grab a glass of wine and share a few dishes."

"3 types of cheese (plentiful portions), ham, mixed leaves, tomatoes, cucumber, celery, grapes, apple slices, slice of orange, chutney, coleslaw, crisps, sliced french stick, variety of crackers and butter."

"King’s Manor is a stately house in York city centre that has played host to some of British history’s most important visitors. In the days before the Reformation, it was the home of the Abbot of St Mary’s, before becoming the headquarters of the Council of the North in Henry VIII’s time. The Tudor king himself stayed there, giving rise to its current name."

"Sited at the top of Micklegate a few yards from the city walls this bar from independent Scottish brewing giants Brewdog opened after a protracted court battle with a local trader – much to the relief of their loyal following of fans in the York area. I say fans because Brewdog as a company have so far attracted investment in their crowdfunding equity scheme from over 100,000 loyal drinkers. The multi-roomed bar is huge."

"Unit 6, Enterprise Complex Walmgate, York, YO1 9TT01904 848448Website. No venue has made a bigger impact on the recent York pub and brewing scene than Brew York Brewery and Tap. It’s already hosted numerous beer festivals and a major expansion in 2018 will see it take over the whole of the former Maltings next door to make it a one-stop food and beer mecca, as well as expanding its brewery capacity."

"From grain to glass, see how traditional ale is created at York Brewery. Located just inside the city walls on Toft Green, York Brewery has been handcrafting real ales since 1996. The brewery site was built in the late 16th century, and has seen many uses over its history, but now it is home to a 20-barrel brew plant, with six traditional open top fermenters and five conditioning tanks."

"Located on Walmgate, the beer garden at Brew York is a hidden gem that overlooks the River Foss and Rowntree’s Wharf. With unique barrel benches and YUZU street food also on offer, make this your next stop for a fresh brew."
