A lovely little cafe right in the middle of Helmsley. Lovely outside sitting area by the stream and seating available inside. A little tight on space but the food and service was great. If disabled I would ask the staff if there are disabled toilets as the ones used were up a steep set of steps.

What an incredible little gem! My boyfriend and I popped by for some brunch over the weekend and we were blown away by the food, we expected it to be nice but the standards were so high. We ordered the prawn sandwich and the buttermilk chicken sandwich with a side of fries to share and they were all so tasty and seasoned so well. The bread was specially selected to go with each dish and complimented the food really well. I also got an iced hot chocolate which was so refreshing on a hot day. The staff were so friendly and lovely, we live over an hours drive away but we already have decided we will be returning! There isn’t parking but there’s plenty of on street nearby and a car park a short walk away too 🙂 beautiful little spot just opposite a stream and in a stunning picturesque location.

Charming little café in a prime location in Helmsley. Dog friendly, staff were lovely and the food was gorgeous. They even adapted the menu to my Gluten Free needs without any fuss. Would highly recommend.

We’ve been to Mannion in York for many years and so a trip to Helmsley wouldn’t be the same without a visit here!! We know the food is always delicious, so definitely know what to expect!!
We got a table upstairs and perused the menus on the wall. There’s plenty of choice and the standard is second to none!
Our food came and couldn’t wait to tuck in!! The ravioli was amazing! It was delicious and full of flavour!! Such a great combination!!
The rarebit was great too!!
We loved it here and will definitely come back on our next visit!!

Best cheesecake ever. Beautiful basque cheesecake.
And the scones too are excellent with clotted cream & jam. Amazing.
But the cheesecake, did I mention the god dam cheesecake?!!
Good coffee too.
What a canny little place; can get busy but worth the wait for a table upstairs or a takeout.

Gorgeous eatery in Helmsley.
Quaint old buildings, quirky rooms, small and comfortable.
Sat at the bar facing Helmsley castle, people watching 😂.
Best prawn sandwich ever 👍 mmmmm
And everything can be adapted to be gluten free.
Halloumi sandwich with gluten free bread was amazing and.... Gluten free cakes, the banana and maple syrup cake was scrumptious.
Staff really friendly and knowledgeable about their ingredients.
Open kitchen if you want to watch the chefs prepare food.
Would recommend and visit again and again..lol

We stopped here for lunch on Sunday 11th July 2021. There were 7 of us comprising 3 adults and 4 children. They were very accommodating and due to covid restrictions we had to have 2 separate tables upstairs with the kids at 1 table and the adults at another. They provide you with menu for drinks but the food menu is featured on blackboards on their walls so I assume their menu changes on a daily basis which I think is fantastic as it's clearly very seasonal.
We really fancied a Sunday roast which they are pleased to announce on the menus provided that Sundays are all about their roasts. Unfortunately they had sold out of the lamb so we settled on roast beef. I have to say that it was the best roast beef we have had. The beef is served on a plate with a large Yorkshire pudding and some rich beef gravy. Another plate contains a medley of roasted carrots, tender stem broccoli, mangetout and roast potatoes with extra gravy on the side in a little jug of it's own. The carrots were quite incredible... I would love to know what they done to make them so tasty.
They even catered for our incredibly fussy daughter and went off menu and whipped up a batch of American style pancakes, with sausage and scrambled eggs for her and the pancakes were light, soft and fluffy and a lovely vanilla taste to them. If these feature as a breakfast item I would most definitely have them.

If you are in the area and looking for a really good meal, do not hesitate and get yourself to Mannion & co.
