“A lovely place to stop during a bike trail. Plenty of space to sit and relax. Service was fast and the food was so delicious! I went with some friends and here's what we got: - Salmon and cream cheese bagel: my favorite 🤩 - Chorizo ​​toast: delicious - Falafel and hummus sandwich: a great surprise. Well made We also got some cakes and coffees. Prices are quite good for the amount of food you get. Definitely recommend give it a go! 👍”

This place is so much more than a pit stop on a long walk (Leeds to Cas Vegas for us). So many locals also visit, and it's clearly well loved. You can see why. Fab selection of sandwiches, drinks, and cookies the size of your head!! Lovely welcoming staff and the best oat milk latte I've ever had. Oh, and it's super dog friendly, so if you're not brace yourself. Called again on another walk, we actually did a detour to make sure we could enjoy a lovely lunch. Even though this place is constantly busy, the staff couldn't be lovelier. We absolutely LOVE this place!

Great little spot for food and coffee, very close the river. We had a bagle BLT and it was delicious. A few small tables right in front and also a garden area with more tables in the shade. No indoor seating but if you go in summer or good weather it's perfect. Also, very nice selection of cakes!

Call in here for a coffee, sometimes a sandwich or toastie. And definitely a piece of cake. Everyone is made welcome by the staff. They even do sausages for the dogs,and have treats out for them too. I could sit in the secret garden all day chatting to people and drinking coffee. It's the best latte I've ever had!

We stumbled across this place on a walk through St. Aidens, it was a pleasant surprise! Me and my partner both got a Brie and red onion chutney toastie. It was absolutely heavenly, the melted Brie was so creamy and delicious mixed with the sweetness of the chutney. Would definitely recommend!

“Tucked just off the M62 at junction 30, on the road towards Wakefield, sits what might seem like an unlikely gem—a scruffy-looking blue 40-foot container. At first glance, it may not strike you as a place you'd stop for a bite, but trust me, you’ll be grateful you did. What lies behind that unassuming exterior is one of the best roadside eateries you’ll ever stumble upon. The food? Simply phenomenal. Every bite bursts with flavour, and the portions are generous without being overwhelming. The best part? The prices won’t break the bank. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this little haven proves you can never judge a place by its cover. Perfect for a quick stop-off or a leisurely meal, this container cafe is a hidden culinary delight you won’t want to miss. It is a true testament to how incredible food can thrive in the most unexpected places.”

“Rivers meet has varied menu including gluten free options, using local produce. My kids love it because they have free wifi and they can enjoy their tablet time along with their favourite rocky road cake and when accustomed to environment they would start chatting to other cafe visitors- my kids (9 and 11) always ask to go there. Friendly staff and other customers,really busy during lunch time. I love the vintage mix and match plates,tea pots and cups, the decor, the little craft shop and the event posters of craft clubs/meet ups.”
