The Folly Coffee House & Licenced Cafe

Beautiful building, lovely cafe with vegan cake options and soya milk. Call ahead for lunch if you have dietary requirements. Little shop full of locally made artisan gifts, art exhibition and museum. A gorgeous bubble of culture in an I tetesting and friendly town.

Nice coffee with free small shortbread biscuit served in an historic building. Good selection of cakes too.

Wonderful dog friendly cafe. Clean and spacious. Good coffee in decorative cups and saucers (large or regular).
Very impressed with the Scallywags (a dark, fruity type scone) bursting with flavours. Also, the cheese sandwich was spot-on.
They even have North Riding Brewery beers (bottles) as part of their alcoholic beverages range.
Friendly atmosphere, popular with locals and walkers and set in a large historic building.
The cafe itself is a means of charitable support for the building and museum.
The entrance to the cafe is up about 3 steps. At the front of the building. So, wheelchair access will probably be difficult (But, check this, as they may have a contingency plan in operation).

Great building and a nice space for eating but we must have gone on a bad day. Even though they were running a reduced menu we didn't get what we ordered. Bread wasn't what we asked for and there was no ham in either of the cheese, ham and chutney toasties. Wasn't cheap either. Coffee was good.

Really nice place but gets over crowded so grab a table quick lol. Great food only wish there was something more like pies or burgers .. but that’s just me!

Good food, pleasant helpful staff, lovely location.👍
Worst thing: the soup cup should have been a bowl cos the was lovely🤔

Brilliant. Dog friendly, good food and caters very well for gluten free diet. Most of the menu was adaptable for me. There was a choice of gluten free cake, and it was good cake that didn’t look or taste gluten free. And what really made me feel welcome - my cup of tea came with a complimentary gluten free mini biscuit, just like my gluten eating partner’s.

After a lovely walk I called into the cafe in this historic building. It serves a lovely selection of drinks and food. Can recommend.
