What a find. Lovely friendly welcome Busy when we called in. Just before lunch. Really pretty café in the middle of Addingham. Cappuccino coffee, really nice coffee. Ginger cake moist and sticky definitely recommend. Decorations lots of prints of local places. Great fast service. Will be calling in again.

Great tea room (but I had latte, and it was smashing) serving selection of cakes, sandwiches, soup etc plus my favourite...flapJack, and it all went down well.

Even the name, "Ginger Plum", evokes a feeling of good food, great service and a wonderful atmosphere. We were in the area for a short break and came across Ginger Plum whilst exploring the village of Addingham, near Ilkley. On a damp, cold day in February and with a well walked dog in tow, we were treated to a warm welcome and a range of superb cakes and drinks you can imagine. Comfortable tables & chairs and a fantastic range of local watercolour paintings that festoon the walls make this a 'must visit' stop if you're anywhere near. Better than the famous and nearby Betty's, and significantly better value.

What a lovely spot! Amy was incredibly friendly and their coffee is excellent. The place itself is perfect for anyone wanting a casual drink with friends in a welcoming seating area, or if you want to book out their meeting rooms for a more private space. 5 stars ⭐️

Small but tasteful venue. Friendly, attentive staff. On this occasion I opted for a Mocha which was beautifully presented with a light, sweet biscuit. I was tempted by the variety of sweet treats on offer but I resisted, maybe next time.

Lovely food, & plenty of it. Had a toasted cheese & onion sandwich. It was nicely presented with a side of salad, coleslaw & a few crisps. Oh & a milkshake. We were looked after by Kate who saw to our needs & made us feel very welcomed. Will definitely be back again.

Absolutely wonderful cafe, great little find. I wanted to book somewhere as we were travelling three hours North for my partner to have his van repaired and we needed somewhere close for a quick pit stop. This lovely cafe came up as within walking distance and decided to book via Instagram. Very quick reponse and very friendly ladies. Breakfast was amazing! If we were ever that way again, would definetely pop in. Highly recommend. Delicious! Sarah & Lee.

Lovely little place. Clean and tidy. The staff are always very friendly. Good menu at reasonable prices. The only possible complaint is that they stop their breakfast menu at 11.30. They can be busy, so booking in is recommended.

We ordered delivery for the first time today and honestly it was absolutely banging. The doubled up breakfast sandwich was huge-usually when we get breakfast sandwiches the bacon is always a letdown, undercooked and greasy but this was literally cooked to perfection! Crispy bacon in our breakfast sandwiches! Love it! All our food was absolutely gorgeous. We have ordered from other local places for sarnies and paid double the price, Alexanders absolutely smashed them out of the park. Well impressed, will be back!

Highly recommended 😋👌🏻 Alexander catered for my grandma's 90th Birthday party last week at Adel social club and every single guest from the 8 year olds to the 95 year olds all commented on how delicious the food was! Alex even prepared a generously portioned separate meal for my father with special dietary requirements (vegan with additional food sensitivities) and my dad was really impressed! He arrived on time to lay out the food before the party and then came back after to clear away what was left before the end of our use of the venue, with such friendly and helpful service every step of the way! Thanks so much! As well as the deli, if you need event catering - Alexander is your guy! 👍🏻

This place is an absolute gem. Tried it just before Xmas and now will be a regular customer. Tried loaded fries with buffalo sauce, excellent. Then my partner and I tried poutine which was plentiful and lathered in gravy alongside a tuna melt bagel. We were stunned how big it was, absolutely stuffed with filling. Today, tried Philly Cheese bagel (pictured) and it was massive and contained a ton of pastrami. It fell apart because it had so much filling but a messy meal has it's own charm. We're buzzing that we live close to it... gunna try everything on the menu!

This place is a real little gem in the community. Since buying the old run down pub it used to house there has been a huge transformation. The cafe is really welcoming, plenty of space, kids corner, fully accessible. There is a car park at the rear, bus stop across the road (no 6 and 19) and Horsforth train station isn't far either. No excuse not to go and visit! Amazing staff, friendly atmosphere, really good selection of food (the cake!!!) and great coffee! As you can probably tell, I rather like it!!

It’s been a while since my last visit !! I was invited to a meeting taking place in the “sunshine “ room and I knew from my last visit that this must be further work in progress! I parked outside and the first thing I noted was that the old entrance had been filled in . I was directed around the side of the building and up a gently sloping wide ramp to another large entrance. There are railings all the way up the ramp for safety and help for mobility . It also prevents a drop onto the old steps too. The new doorway is double glazed sliding doors and leads into a corridor. Situated here too is a disabled toilet 🚾 wheelchair Accessible and fitted with visual impairment handrails too . To my right a large double door leading into the “sunshine” room . It was a very sunny day and the room was bathed with light even with the blinds closed ! Very appropriate name . This was the meeting room today and also in an alcove is a very modern little kitchenette. A good sized meeting room without crazy acoustics !! All floors flat and level and no trip hazards! A real jewel in the crown of the LS16 community . Still work to do outside and the bees 🐝 were busy in the parts that had been cleared and planted .

Attended the Strength & Balance Class and was greeted with a warm welcome. I must say, it's a relaxing place with a great ambience and the café is like an oasis. It feels like home and the staff are very receptive. The facilities are really user friendly for people who have a disability, good ♿wheelchair access, 🚾 toilets and 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧family orientated, a space for all. I have not tried out the cafe yet but from what I have seen so far it looks delightful and I look forward to trying it out real soon. Also good transport service too, whether you prefer the bus or train. If you have not visited yet, I urge you to give it a try!

Great place to visit, so welcoming and friendly it is like you have been a friend for years even if it is your first visit. They have something going on every day, from lunches where you an get a warm meal to games afternoons where you can meet new friends and have a laugh. They also have nurses dropping in to help with any bandage dressing you may require and advise on any health problems. To many events to list so recommend looking on their website, which is something they also help with. Highly recommended.

Lived in Adel 30 years & we needed this. Credit to the team for taking the risk and doing it. Now down to us/Adel to support protect and enjoy it. Since set up, they’ve had a) Lawnswood MK2 & b) the other bar to contend with. I don’t see either as competition since I’d not go there. Allowing dogs is a good gives an excuse most nights - Jeske loves it. Thursday night Lasagna was lovely. Cosy place good food, nice beer. Excellent staff 10/10

Breakfast was really nice! I had the french toast and it was delicious, the orange mascarpone made it very refreshing so it wasn't too sweet. The portion size was also huge. We also had the breakfast brioche, again very delicious but definitely recommend it with added bacon.

The food is fabulous, highly recommend the Turkish eggs and also the pastries. I would suggest asking for some of the pastries to be heated like spinach & feta or the chocolate, hazelnut and pear (they won't offer but will do upon request). Coffee is great, and service is rapid meaning you can stop before your train. Booking looks advisable as always busy.

Incredible place! I wish I had a better photo of how it arrived! Honestly one of the best English breakfasts I have ever had. It is difficult to elevate a fry, but they managed. Mushroom with lemon and thyme, homemade beans, perfect poached eggs, great coffee. Seriously impressive place. Everyone else was really happy with the food as well. Service was fast and kind.

This is my first visit to this establishment, and I must say it has left a remarkable impression on me. Opting for breakfast here in the morning was undoubtedly the right choice. From the very first moment, the young and attentive staff ensured a warm and welcoming experience. The time spent here, combined with the unique atmosphere, is as exceptional as the food itself. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who has yet to try the local cuisine – it is truly worth the visit.
