Well, slap me with a tea bag and call me a scone—One Up in Redcar is an absolute corker! If you're looking for a place to caffeinate your soul and avoid the British drizzle (because let's face it, it’s always drizzling somewhere), this is the place to be.
First off, the vibe? Oh, it’s as cozy as a cat in a jumper. You walk in and instantly feel like you’ve stepped into a warm hug that smells of fresh coffee and happiness. The decor’s trendy without making you feel like you need to don your best hipster beanie, and the staff? Friendlier than your nan after a sherry or two!
But let's get to the real reason you're here—the drinks. I had the caramel latte, and let me tell you, it was life-changing. Honestly, I nearly proposed to it. It's sweet, smooth, and just the right amount of indulgent without sending you into a sugar coma. It’s basically a cuddle in a cup. I’d caramel latte my way to Redcar every morning just for that glorious elixir. Forget Tinder, the real love of my life is served in a mug here.
And did I mention the free WiFi? Absolute game-changer. It’s not often you find a place where you can sip, surf, and get some work done without your signal dropping faster than England’s chances in the World Cup. I popped in to “work remotely” (aka pretend to be productive while sipping my brew), and I was so comfy I almost set up camp.
The only downside is they don’t serve biscuits with the WiFi, but that’s just me being greedy. Honestly, it’s a little slice of caffeinated heaven. One Up has definitely bean added to my list of favourite spots. I’ll be back faster than you can say, “Is there oat milk?”
In summary: fabulous drinks, lovely staff, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay forever. If you’re not heading to One Up, then frankly,...

Read moreThis place is absolutely TOP NOTCH! I don't think I can explain just how impressed I was today. From arrival to ordering and what was served was truly stunning. If you're in Redcar and you're looking for absolutely top-class food and drinks with a price tag that is entirely on-point you will be happy you came here! I mean, honestly, GO. My Mrs was working in Redcar recently and was looking for a great cafe that served good food and this popped up. I wasn't with her so I checked the place out myself with my two daughters and their friend. Both my daughters are neuro-diverse so a new place always brings challenges for them. I have to tell you that nothing was a problem for the staff to help make our visit so comfortable. The girls were so happy! Poached eggs were amazing, the Falafel and Hummus wrap was 100% and you simply cannot ignore the quality pancakes that came from the kitchen!! Absolute Chef's Kiss for these ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you for an amazing late-lunch. We will be...
