The Firebox Cafe - Menú

I stumbled upon this amazing restaurant and was blown away by the delicious homemade cakes, perfectly crafted coffee, and the friendly service from a charming young man taking our orders. This place is truly a hidden gem and is definitely worth a visit. Thank you so much. Date of visit: October 28th.

Great coffee and the orange and poppy seed cake was very tasty. Husband had the giant tea cake and he said it was delicious. Had a good laugh with the owner when the young lad helping, was screwing up a plastic milk bottle only for the top to fly off and hit me. A great place and we will be going back for another coffee before we leave Hawes.

been twice last time interaction with female owner I wished I had of walked out rude isnt the word cafe is not cleaned at all or the soup mugs only ever visit the wensleydale pantry 20 years and never an issue Most places in the area still wear masks not this place ! Clearly cleanliness is an issue as place is filthy windows skirting boards etc

The coffee at this restaurant is fantastic and the cake is delicious. The interior is decorated with lots of bike-related items. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. When I expressed my disappointment about the closure of the Rope works, they recommended a visit to a nearby mill, which turned out to be a great suggestion. Thank you for the tip!

This was my second visit to this charming cafe that celebrates cyclists. It may be easy to miss since it's hidden away in the old railway station, but it's a hidden gem with lots of character and delicious food. I tried the roast pepper and sweet potato soup with a Wensleydale cheese and chutney sandwich, which was absolutely delicious and only cost £7.50. Plus, they are dog-friendly as well.

Stopped off for late morning barm cake with sausage/egg and bacon or just egg. Food and coffee was very good and the atmosphere and staff friendly. It was a very wet week when we stayed locally and the place was busy either for take away or dine in. Not a big place and our party of 6 took up 3 tables, overall inside maybe 10 tables, includes couch in ordering area but when its dry there is some seating outside. Overall very enjoyable and would go again. You can access the cafe via the National Park Centre or direct through cafe entrance.

We had lunch here and decided on a giant teacake and cup of tea. The tea came in a mug that clearly hadn't been washed properly as it had mouth drip marks down it and a ring round the top of the mug where the previous users drink had been. I waited a few mins to exchange but the girls were working in the back so decided just to pour it into a clean mug on the top. Our teacakes came 10 mins later, absolutely cremated on the tops, I would guess they had set on fire before being served. Bearing in mind COVID, we were pretty disgusted. Sort yourselves out.

Our experience was a hodgepodge of good and bad, hence the average review…it is a quirky little spot in a bike shop, which has a lot of Tour de Yorkshire memorabilia up on the walls, which is lovely. A fairly limited menu, which again is a positive in my book as when out exploring one does not need too much choice. However the service was not the Yorkshire warmth I have come to expect, the quality of the ingredients was not superb and the service was slow. For a location that is always busy when I have passed through the expectation is for crowds to be anticipated, and as a minimum to staff according to the number of tables available.

We arrived soaking wet during a heavy rainfall and after I enquired regarding the availability of a table was answered by a petite dark haired woman (a member of staff who needs customer focused training), who informed me in an extremely curt and abrupt manner that, “if you notice I am about to clear and clean that table.” I hadn’t noticed and as she didn’t have any cleaning materials in her hand at the time was rather confused, up but we waited patiently whilst she eventually cleared and cleaned. Later the same member of staff came to take our order, again in a curt manner. When she returned with an incorrect order her reaction was that it was our fault that she had confused the order and s...
