The Bay Tree Cafe And Bistro

Called in here whilst staying in Hawes. We say outside as it was a nice day and we had the dogs with us. My husband had a coffee, I had hot chocolate (biggest one I've ever had!!! , along with roasted teacakes. All were delicious and the staff very friendly. Will call in again next time we are in Hawes.

Very disappointing. Panini was too tough to cut either stale or over baked. The filling was no better; small pieces of chicken cooked to the point of being inedible. I was given the choice of salad or crisps and got a large helping of average tasting crisps. What is wrong with a small portion of salad and a few crisps? I was not the only person in the cafe having trouble cutting through the panini. It was the most disappointing meal I have eaten in a very long while, almost inedible. The cafe is not cheap and there are plenty better places to eat in Hawes.

We came here on a rainy day and were very impressed with the choice of delicious home-made soups. We tried 3 of them and all were delicious. Other food was also good and the service was prompt and cheerful.

We’ve visited this establishment before enjoyed our most recent visit too. Looking for a light snack as the pubs in Hawes generally don’t serve food between 2:30/3 5:30/6 we sat outside with our pooch. We ordered a hot beef, onion gravy sandwich a croc monsieur both came with crisps which were delicious. The sandwiches were great too, reasonable prices good service. The ham in my sandwich was really tasty. Another good experience thank you.

We happenend upon this cafe/restaurant when we got lost on the way home from our holidays! And what a find! We walked in around 4.30 for tea and sandwiches. I had the most wonderful Tuna and Wensleydale toasted sandwich with a gorgeous side salad with strawberries, grapes. It was delicious! Super tea, the family had shortbread and scones, and my daughter (who is 11) had the 'toddlers nibble plate ' which consisted of bread stick, sliced fruit and different cheeses, truely yummy. I couldn 't recommend this place enough, we even stayed past 5 o 'clock and different feel like we were being rushed out the door. Fabulous service and great food. Thank you
