Sons of the North in Kirklees

Really good breakfast, lovely surroundings and the staff were great including the chef who came out and had a brief chat with us.

Always great service , delicious food and relaxed lovely surroundings . .fab cafe / restaurant

Amazing food and consistently amazing service. Every time I ask them to leave out anything from the menu such as tomatoes I am compensated with extra bacon etc instead. Impossible to find a fault. Recommend

This is one of mine and my partner's favourite places to eat in Huddersfield. Rustiq, local produce, well priced, light and airy, staff are amazing, attentive, friendly and helpfull.Luke is always welcoming. I would say a hidden gem, but they are so great at what they do, they aren't so hidden anymore.Decor is current and charming, basic but on point, relevant and homely,, the food is always 10 out of 10. If I was to be ultra critical or find a small fault, well, id be lying. I cant.Well behaved dogs welcome. Get in and have some nice coffee and local fodder. Thanks team. See you soon. James

Always a friendly welcome from the staff with a good selection of both cakes and lunches.Already a regular visitor.

Had another visit here a few days ago, and again it didn’t disappoint. The café is spotless, has fantastic food & lovely staff, a perfect place to stop for something to eat & drink. Looking forward to another visit next time we are in the area.

What a lovely surprise.We went in for lunch to kill time between my daughter's flute and piano exams just across the river. The welcome was warm, the service was quick and friendly, and the food was lovely.The warm welcome and excellent service wasn't just reserved for humans either - there were several dogs in who were very well looked after with bowls brought out for them.The Michelin stars were initially meant to represent being worthy of a stop along the way for one, worth a detour for two and worth a special journey for three. Going by that standard, I'd say Sons of the North is worth at least two, if not three.I am tempted to book future music exams over the river despite there being at least two closer venues just so we can come back here!

I don't live in the area but met up with friends recently for lunch, food was fantastic, coffee was lovely too, nothing was too much trouble for Luke and his staff. A lovely place to meet up with friends, the place was spotless. Thank you for looking after us, we are all looking forward to a return visit. I wish we had somewhere like this where I live, If I could give more stars I would - 10 / 10 from me.

I used the North Light Café as a race HQ for a multi-terrain race recently. We were delighted with our accommodation provided by the café. North Light Café is lovely spacious facility right at the top of the site. It offers a wide range of the usual beverages plus gorgeous cakes. As a post race rehydration station it proved very popular with many of our runners. Nice friendly service in a peaceful atmosphere. We very much hope to return with another race in the future. No hesitation to recommend it as a super hidden gem of a place.

I am checking out dog friendly locations - "I had to eat this in the name of research" for Poppy and Coco 🤣😂🤣I have been wanting to visit for ages, today was the day. I was greeted with a warm smile from all staff I encountered. I had looked at the menu online, but on arrival spotted the "today's Sunday brunch special" it certainly was special - it was DELICIOUS. I had two coffee's and stayed around 2 hours reading, everyone was happy to leave me to it, just checking in occasionally without me feeling I was taking up a table.I kept an eye on others food and everything looked amazing, full English was huge, and pancakes (3 per portion) came with jam and syrup on the side - which I prefer as sometimes they can have too much syrup.A great spot - will definately be back - need to try those pancakes 😋😋😋
