Barkers 1882 Cafe & Bistro in Hambleton

I can only comment on the cafe. Great little straightforward place with happy staff who have a laugh with you. Good food at sensible prices and, what's rare, decent coffee.

Excellent place for shopping, sells everything, very large area to look around + fantastic eating place or a dinner, + fast service, can't fault it ,hence 5 STAR RATING also large parking place at rear of shop .

Went for food in the cafe upstairs, I had to wait about 30 mins after I ordered my vegan meal (the only vegan option available) as they had to defrost it first. For the money I would expect freshly made that day but it was nice. Please if your reading this Barkers more vegan options.

Today was my first visit to the shop for many years. It wasn't to busy so I was able browse the wide range of items for sale. The food smelt absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to order a meal as I was on my way to the Friarage Hospital for an appointment. Hopefully next time I'll be enjoying a nice meal up on the first floor.

Really nice food and most of the staff were nice except the supervisor who was rude and initially refused us entry because we had a pushchair for our 8 month old even though there was lots of space and we'd eaten their numerous times before without problem. After a heated discussion the manager offered us a free meal which we accepted. We have made a complaint about the supervisor and we'll be considering weather to go back in the future.

A wonderful shopping experience. This is a lovely department store which reminded me of Binns and Debenhams before they disappeared from the high street. There's a fantastic range of everything, friendly helpful staff and really excellent cafe and restaurant. We treated ourselves to the Christmas dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it. Definitely worth another visit!

Had lunch in the bistro... Lifted my pot of chips from my plate to put it on the table for my 2 family members to share and found a hair underneath which was on the remaining food on my plate! Brought it to the attention of the waiter to be asked if I wanted it re-making- we were all taken aback that he even needed to ask! A fresh meal was brought back out but no apology was given. Although the meal was OK, the chips were very bland and the service wasn't what you would expect. Disappointed to say the least. Your kitchen staff definitely need to wear hairnets.

Nice place, easy access for wifes mobility scooter staff can't do enough and the food is very good, they serve Yorkshire tea...big bonus. If you're in Northallerton go to Barkers!!

Called in for lunch. Very good home made steak pie and fresh vegetables. Not your usual in store meals. Lovely cafe. No wonder it was so popular. Only criticism, tables could be cleared a little quicker, a lot of people, us included, ate at uncleared tables.
