We've ordered their take away meal kits a few times now, when we get friends over it's the best way to have an incredible meal at home. Couldn't recommend it more highly. Drop in at a weekend and grab handfuls of their brilliant sweet and savory treats. Just started doing sandwiches which are divine.

We recently hosted my Mum’s 60th birthday party at Gimbals. Janet, Charlie and the whole team were amazing throughout. They helped us plan a perfect event, with a personalised menu and went all out to make the venue look fabulous. Our guests were all amazed at the quality of food and the fantastic service. I can’t recommend Gimbals enough. If you’re looking for somewhere truly unique to host a special event this is the place. Thank you so much team Gimbals!

Quirky dining room. Busy but comfortable. Intriguing menu. All dietary requirements catered for. Spectacular arrangements of exotic dishes presented. Yummy tastes and flavours. Impressive wine list. Popular so booking ensures no disappointment. Parking very handy. Near train station. Bus route. Easy walk if you're local.

A wonderful eating experience from start to finish. The decor and vibe of the place is stylish and relaxed. Went as a party of 4 (and a half) , 2 vegans, 1 veggi and 1 meat eater and we were all catered for. We also had my 3 month old son, who I felt completely at ease feeding in the restaurant and the staff were lovely with. Absolutely amazing vegan food! There's an entire separate menu, giving you so much choice. Beautifully presented, tastes sensational. The staff are genuine, attentive and professional. Will definitely be back. Thank you for a special evening.

Absolutely fantastic tapas restaurant. Such a diverse choice at reasonable prices... we will visit again, as we want to try all the dishes on the menu (sadly we do not live closer & only tried 5 dishes - which were all amazing). The decor is very cool, the staff are excellent, the chef and his team are non stop in the open kitchen. The result.... a fantastic culinary experience, the dishes were served singularly, which gave the feel of a taster menu. First class. Thanks you. We were fortunate enough to be seated at the bar, overlooking the kitchen, we saw the adept cookery, relentless hard work first hand. Plus, we were given recommendations of the premium dishes to order. Top drawer experience. A must do in the region.

Top Notch Nosh! Hitting above loads of London restaurants trying to accomplish a similar menu and style with a meal you couldn't have there for double the money+ with their 6 out of the park. That tuna's a stunner. Must try!

It has taken almost two years - lockdown and all that - for us to find a restaurant that makes us feel like we have a small part of London in Sowerby Bridge of all places. Great service, ridiculously good taste, and superb quality… 🍱 If I could give this place 6 stars, I would. Ate all the food before we could snap a photograph!! Lovely atmosphere. We sat in front of the kitchen, bit too close to the door, but was interesting to watch the kitchen staff. If I could nick-pick on anything from a business perspective, it would be seeing the cooks browse their mobile phones here and there whilst in between service - but that is being really fussy! We were not offered a wine menu and the paper napkins are a small letdown. But being super fussy as I was so impressed by the place, I want it to be even better! The table staff were excellent. We ordered 10+ dishes for 2 adults and one child. Two drinks each = £90. An absolute bargain. Wish I could have sampled all the plates… I will be coming back many times! (April 2023) Returned again with my 11 year old son for an Easter treat. We love it there. The pork belly, anchovies and chorizo are lovely. The cauliflower dish was lovely - great for vegetarians - but not for me. Heart and Soul (Vocation) on tap 🍺 too. Parking 🅿️ immediately outside if anyone needs to know.

Delightful dog friendly cafe which hit the spot for breakfast of eggs hollandaise which I had with bacon and a side of two sausages, all bought from the butcher’s across the road. Super tasty grub with a pot of Yorkshire tea. My missus had a Mushroom Hollandaise and a Cappuccino which again was great. Staff are super friendly and will spoil your dog with strokes and a biscuit!

Loved going to the excited goat today! First time visiting and I will be back staff were lovely, food was great both really enjoyed the Cajun chicken sandwich! I had the gingerbread hot chocolate which was to die for and my partner had the Biscoff latte. Had lovely a conversation with a couple that joined us at our table as they were very busy and it really made the experience.

This is a great coffee shop that appears to be an important part of the Hebden Bridge community. Early in the morning it was busy and buzzing while the friendly professional staff remained calm and confident. Definitely recommended.

Lovely spot for a drink and snack along the canal. I had a mini vegetarian breakfast which was the perfect portion size to justify getting a cake for the walk home. The chai latte was delicious and the selection of Hip Pop kombuchas and sodas are great cold drink options. The menu is large, with a range of portion and dietary variations - I'll definitely be back to try more! Service was lovely and friendly, in a cosy setting on the canalside. The perfect pit stop when visiting Sowerby Bridge :)

First time visit to this cafe and what a gem! Ordered a cafetiere for two and a full English breakfast and a vegan breakfast. The food was delicious and the menu states it's locally sourced. The meat breakfast was 2 sausage, 2 bacon, mushrooms, tomato, beans , hash brown and toast for just under £10. Everything was good and fresh. The coffee is also local to the cafe and was a good cup full of flavour. I will visit again the future!

A lovely little find to finish off our quick visit to Halifax! Limited seating inside but the weather was nice enough to be outside. Service was second to none, so friendly without being intrusive. Breakfasts were beautiful. Cake indulgence will definitely be on the cards for the next visit! From “the love birds” xx

Some of the friendliest and nicest people I've ever met, the doughnuts are out of this world and usually, when I go to a doughnut shop or cake shop, the coffee is so-so. Not here. The coffee is fantastic. The other drink options are also fantastic, to hot chocolates to frappés and milkshakes that are divine. The option for meal prep is just outstanding. Honestly, if you aren't going here to indulge your sweet tooth, you are missing out.

We dropped in for some coffee and donuts on our walk today and were really impressed. The donuts were amazing, they looked great with Halloween decs and they tasted even better, not too sweet but spot on. We had a milkshake and some coffees and the service was top notch. Thank you very much indeed 🙌

Excellent coffee, amazing meal preps which after a quick chat with Jonny he will advise which are best to achieve your goals and then you get to the donuts 🍩. I cant recommend the place enough if your working out and healthy eating wanting meal preps or on a cheat day and want a donut it has it all.

I have been getting my gym meals from meal prep done right.co.uk. The size and quality of the meals is just right, and saves a lot of time measuring and cooking myself. They keep in the fridge well, but I freeze them, they come out great.

A great, comfortable and clean spot with a warm atmosphere to sit relax and have a coffee. There are also some great food items on the menu, vegan friendly too! There is an awesome selection of teas as well as some beautiful items of clothing in the shop. Such a magical environment for the events too, with helpful friendly staff who serve with a smile. All in all a wonderful uplifting community vibe where everyone is welcome. Will definitely be visiting here again and will check out their social pages for upcoming events.

I absolutely love Soul Wellness! The vibes are amazing, and the cozy seating areas are perfect for relaxation. The sauna is a real treat and the team are incredible. It's even animal-friendly! If you're in the area, I highly recommend – you won't be disappointed. Delicious coffee and ill be back to try some food! Make sure you check out all the events/classes that are on weekly.

One of my favourite local cafés (during quieter periods). Great coffee and cakes but the service isn't as welcoming as at other local places. Today the barista appeared to "forget" about my order immediately after taking payment and simply ignored me thereafter. I had to ask another colleague to serve me as nobody else was preparing it on her behalf. Quite bizarre. If you can't be bothered with table service maybe have the courtesy to tell customers rather than leaving them sat wondering.

Lovely little tea room/cafe adjacent to a farm shop. Food all home made and freshly cooked. Love the English breakfast with two runny fried eggs. They also still have hand sanitiser dispensers on both entrances. Well done. Wish more still did

I came across this place today I was visiting some friends, a quaint little cafe with the most amazing home made cakes and food. The place was spotlessly clean and the staff were friendly and attentive. The food was lovely and hot and was of good quality. We had a breakfast and the fried eggs were lovely, NOT greasy and runny yolks. We got a pot of tea it was massive and for £2.50 it was enough for 4 cups between us, I've paid over £2.50 for a small cup in the high end coffee shops.i had a huge piece of brownie that I'd say was one of the best brownies I've ever tasted, and I was told they all home baked. The cafe is dog friendly too. I'll definitely go back, sadly it isn't on my doorstep otherwise I'd be eating cake there every day 🥰 if you in the area give this very reasonably priced cafe a visit, you will not be disappointed 😊

Lovely café with good food and good service. Coffee, tea, milkshake and lunches including a toastie, prawn sandwich, and a tuna mayo jacket potato, followed by home baked cake. And all for less than £30. Nice relaxed atmosphere, friendly hosts. Lovely deli attached to it with a selection of cheeses, pies, cakes, etc.
