The Cake Ole — Restaurant in Bradford

Really looking forward to taking my pregnant girlfriend as a treat as never been before. Spent over £20. The cup of tea was lovely and fresh however the afternoon teas have no choices available as they are set, they couldn’t tell you what sweets/cakes you would get with it, so she ordered an egg mayo salad sandwich for £4.45. When it arrived it was in thin brown bread not a bloomer as advertised and the salad consisted of slightly brown lettuce no fresh tomatoes or cucumber in sight.

No apology or acknowledgement given, my message was ignored and no response was given. Truly gutted, as the owners are both genuinely lovely people, especially Richard. In future please take note of customers requests and a simple acknowledgment of being in the wrong would have been...

Cafe is decorated lovely and staff were friendly but that is where the positive review ends. We were really looking forward to our visit to Cake'Ole. We ordered afternoon tea for two @ £18. Four small sandwiches were average. The two scones were hard, dry and stale, my mum bakes so I know how a fresh scone should taste. 1 slice of cake on the top tier to share between us, 1 small rock hard bun and soggy biscuit. Really disappointed with the lack of quality, definitely not freshly baked. Would also be better if they accepted card payment. Will not...
