Advantages: Really good tratitional bakery/tea room

Disadvantages: Its so good you usually have to que

It was my wifes 40th birthday last year and we went to York for the weekend which was great. As part of her birthday friends gave her money to go to Bettys for lunch.

When we arrived it was so busy we had to wait outside for about twenty minutes. First impressions were that we were going back to the late 70s early 80s to have a nice high tea. It had that sort of feel about it. The decor was from the same era but in a nice way. There was alot of glass and mirrors with polished woodwork everywhere. The staff were all in white blouses and black skirts and were very friendly.

I wasnt sure what the menu would be like but it all looked good alot of cakes and sandwiches. I had a club sandwich which is the freshest tastiest club sandwich ive ever had it was followed by a scone complete with fresh cream and strawberry jam. My wife went for a simple ham sandwich, cheese sandwich which was part of a deal and also included a selection of mini cakes. All the food was really fresh and tasty and you felt like all the bakery products were made in a traditional way on the premises.

It really was a special lunch and we had a good time. I think in total including tea and cold drinks it was about £35.00. Quite pricey but you were also paying for the surroundings and brilliant service. I would go back in a flash.

Summary: Traditional bakery great quality food from 30 years ago.

Good place. Also in Harrogate and Ilkley, of course.

Second review I've read today on Betty's - I'm drooling at the thought of their cakes!
