Merrie England - Carta

Had a really tasty sausage and egg sandwich, my only criticism is that it was huge and difficult to eat. Three sausages and an egg…it was jumbo! Brilliant value though and wish I’d had room for one of the delicious looking cakes

Called in for tea and cake in the afternoon. It was very quiet for a Saturday afternoon, other places in the area were very busy. The place was clean and tidy, the food and drinks were OK, prices about average I guess. I was a bit disappointed by the reception though: there was no greeting or eye contact. We did not feel at all welcome.

I have lived and worked all over the World and visited many, many coffee shops. Right up there among my favourites is the Merrie England in Kirkgate Huddersfield. The service and friendliness of all the staff is exemplary. The coffee is great (my wife loves the hot chocolate! and the food is always fresh and wholesome. Try it, you’ll love it!! Ver carta

We haven't visited a Merrie England for a while, it used to be a daily occurrence. Visited the Packhorse shop today and was quite disapointed. A date slice, Eccles cake and two small latés came to just over £9. We thought that was quite dear, especially as the cakes have been reduced in size. There is so much competition in the local coffee and cake sector, Merrie England are going to be left behind.

Went into merry England first week in January for a take away in the afternoon. It was almost empty. We wanted Merry England classic beef and onion and egg mayonnaise. Neither were available at 3pm . A comment was made we will be going home early the only thing on sale are the pre packs. That was three white bread rolls . Tuna x2 egg mayonnaise x1. No brown bread . I have recently had radiology and struggle with white bread We explained this. Staff member said that or nothing. We took all three. I fail to believe that bread would not be in the freezer . Unhappy with the attitude. Standards are dropping.

Called in the Packhorse shop after breaking my journey on my way home from work. Pleasant, friendly staff. As I’d not had one of the renowned Hot Beef and Onion sandwiches for a few years it was a must and coffee . I had just a short wait for my sandwich which was piping hot and tasty just I remembered them to be just what was needed after a busy day at work... if I have a grouch that would be the price for a sandwich, I understand overheads etc but I’m sure the price could be reviewed and brought down considering other eateries around offer meals for not much more !! Please don’t out price yourselves Merrie England is part of Huddersfield. Ver carta

There are a few outlets and this is in my view the poorest. Office staff pop in and largely older customers like me. Staff are not as friendly here. Maybe it's because they are working fast and haven't time for a smile or small talk. I feel lonely when I go in and come out. I asked others in the cafe they said the same thing. The star of the menu is a roast beef sandwich with onions. They do other sandwiches like egg, tuna, prawn ,ham and cheese There is a beef specialist in America Archie with the same menu and this wafer thin beef. The top sweet is Apple pie with chunky pieces of Apple, my favourite, but again a copy of the USA outlets. Food is good.

I used to love Merrie England and have been a loyal customer for over 25 years but will start to visit less now due to poor value. I ordered a beef and onion sandwich with mushroom soup for lunch today. The soup was superb and very tasty but the so called BEEF and onion sandwich was more like an ONION sandwich with a slight hint of beef! WTF! It cost over £7.50 for both so not cheap either. I returned the sandwich and the lady said what's wrong with it? She reluctantly put more meat on it whilst frowning at me. The other day I got the same sandwich from another branch in town and there was loads of beef on it? Do you guys not weigh or measure the portions anymore? See my photo guys!

I attended Merry England coffee shop at Oakes Huddersfield this morning. I came with my mother for coffee and a cake. We had a slice each of Christmas cake , a small coffee and a large coffee and the bill was just over £13-00. Absolutely outrageous, how can they justify these prices for 2 very thin slices of cake and 2 coffees. When I questioned the bill a few other customers must have heard me and on there way out they approached me to agree with how much there coffees etc had cost, and the general consensus was we are not coming back , especially when there are lots of equally nice coffee shops in Lindley Village and the surrounding area. I carnt imagine Merry England being concerned as th... Ver carta
