Lush, again and every time we visit. It's the most awesome cute and cosy cocktail bar, which, if you didn't know, is a cafe too. Serving chunks of gorgeous chocolate cake, cakes, and delicious savoury bites. It's really well sited and easy to get to. The funky decoration of the whole sitting rooms filters through to the atmosphere. Everyone is welcoming and helpful. The cocktails are all mixed by very good bar staff, we enjoyed a few 'Dark and Stormy' cocktails and 'French Martinis'. Its a hit with us everytime, perfect for just two of you on a date night, or a group.

This quirky little eatery is a must try in Saltburn. It fills up quick but that's because of the excellent food and friendly staff. It was my second visit and we sat outside as the weather was fab. Service is fast and the quality is ace. My new fave foodie spot in Saltburn.

This is a wonderful cafe!! I am sensitive (not allergic) to gluten so I struggle to find things I can eat when I visit Saltburn... I am able to eat sourdough due to the low % gluten in it. Half of the menu was sourdough based rather than another bread, which made my entire week!…More reviews
This is a wonderful cafe!! I am sensitive (not allergic) to gluten so I struggle to find things I can eat when I visit Saltburn... I am able to eat sourdough due to the low % gluten in it. Half of the menu was sourdough based rather than another bread, which made my entire week! I had a Brie, Bacon and Scotch Bonnet Jam Toastie and it was absolutely gorgeous. Definitely the best meal I've eaten in Saltburn. Don't even get me started on the Mocha 😻. My brother had a special hot chocolate and it was also very very nice. You can literally taste the difference between this store's cream/marshmallows and your standard ones - WOW. The customer service was fantastic despite it being very busy. Thank you to everyone who was working today! I rate the atmosphere a 3 as it is a very very cramped space and my fat behind could barely squeeze past other customers 🤣

A great hidden gem of a café tucked away in Saltburn. Nothing too fancy but a great vibe and really friendly staff. The food we ordered was great and the soup was brilliant. Also dog friendly. Wish I could have tried some of the alcohol but it was a bit too early!

Very small cosy indoor space, this is a cafe bar and Bistro. Delightfully large Italian sandwich and a pint of Peroni. Don't quite know how to tackle this sarnie, it is so large! A little above my normal budget, but enjoyable.

A lovely cosy venue perfect for tea/coffee and lunch during the day (with deli style lunches and delicious cakes) and cocktails on an evening. For those who don't drink they can make up alcohol free cocktails to your taste.

01Hi everyone ! We are visiting from sunny scarborough this Sunday and have booked a lovely beach hut ! Your cafe looked beautifu, do you allow dogs ? A whippet puppy ☺️
Although the Sitting Room loves four legged friends who are most welcome there. It is closed on Sundays I'm afraid.
