As I work in the local area and break times are limited (live in carer) I popped to this place with client and daughter and it was amazing, the staff here of course are connected to the grounds of Askham Grange (please google) and they are lovely, the food here is so good, it really is, you have to go there and try it for yourself if you don't believe me, the meal deals are so good and very value for money, the food tastes great and there isnt too much in the menu where you feel overwhelmed, the portion of the cake sizes are indeed intended for just 1 person but if your feeling generous the portion could easily do 2 people, (I didn't shaređ€Ł) the staff here are friendly, so lovely to chat to and kind.... you almost forget where the center is (again google) it's easy to get to however parking may be a bit of an issue as its so popular it does get busy, I arrived just before 13.00 and found 1 parking space, you can park right outside the center which is good, there is no allocated car park so its a 1st come 1st get parked basis, absolutely give it a try and you won't be disappointed, there are toilets on site and you van have a winder around, plants, soil, various bird food, seeds etc are sold here so it's an all...

Apparently we could have a free drink as a compensation. We were furious. It took us a great deal of time and effort to find another venue that could take us on this special day. I will never recommend them, nor will I ever go back.
Thank you for your reply. I was not to know the member of staff was new. As you could not contact me, perhaps that was the time to honour the commitment. Those other people who tried to book were given the correct information and so had time to make other...
   Read moreVisited today and I couldn't let the day pass without writing a recommendation. Absolutely 5+ stars for this hidden gem! The food is fantastic and really plentiful! The staff are delightful, brilliant, welcoming and accepting. Mum is an older lady living with dementia and is often repetitive with limited vocabulary and sometimes people can be dismissive but boy! we were welcomed, she was appreciated by the staff and we all enjoyed each other's company. We were treated like family. On to the food which was incredibly well cooked, piping hot and lovely big portions. We even got a meal deal and took pudding home to enjoy later. We were asked would we come back...Absolutely! We will visit time and time again for the community, company, food and lovely experience! A thousand...
