Clark’s, The Village, Haxby

Haxby village has a new café to join the established venues. This one combines a cake shop and take-away service with a compact café area.

Barkers, High Street, Northallerton

10:19am Saturday 20th February 2010

ALTHOUGH you might be lucky to get two hours free parking in the main street (except on market days), there is a large car park behind Barkers. For 40p an hour you can hardly grumble.

Hairy Fig in Fossgate, York

10:32am Saturday 5th December 2009

DESPITE the economic situation, new cafés continue to spring up. Here is one with a somewhat unusual name. Perhaps one you will remember.

Frankie & Benny’s, Foss Islands Road, York

11:01am Saturday 28th November 2009

WE really don’t know why we have never tried this venue before. The advert for lunch from £5.95 was compelling. We just had to investigate.

B&Q’s café, Hull Road, York

11:20am Saturday 21st November 2009

WEDNESDAY is pensioners’ discount day. We fully expected the store to be very busy.

Sainsbury’s café at Monks Cross, York

9:44am Saturday 14th November 2009

DURING a short holiday in the south of England we took the opportunity to check out prices of snack spots. Certainly they have risen but did not appear to be significantly greater than in York.

Chalkers Restaurant, New Earswick and District Indoor Bowling Club

11:48am Saturday 24th October 2009

ALTHOUGH this is a members’ bowls club, the restaurant has been well advertised as open to non-members.

The Yorkshire Food Company, Micklegate, York

11:50am Saturday 17th October 2009

NEW delis with cafés attached are appearing almost faster that we can visit them.
