The Carding Shed in Kirklees

Brilliant place that you have to know about as its in the middle of nowhere. Great atmosphere, lovely food, nice polite staff and superb cakes 🎂

Always great food in such fascinating surroundings - the bike displays and the vintage car workshop. Beautiful area too.

If you like old cars and Bicycles mixed in with a cup of tea and a cake, this is a nice place to visit. Quirky Café with lots of memorabilia around the walls and ceiling. Ploughman's lunch enough for two people. Difficult to find, no just about impossible without Sat Nav. Generally portions are very large. Fish and chips NOT RECOMMENDED. Chips described as twice cooked, yet we're the colour of old leather on the outside but under done inside. Fish batter very greasy. Not cheap at £13.95 either. Stick to a ploughman's or sandwiches. Afternoon tea again, enough for two people. Staff very pleasant. Waitresses in 1960's style dress.

While the afternoon tea was lovely, the sandwiches were really good and cakes also good, in fact we had to take a doggy bag home. We were out in the small room which was freezing and felt forgotten. It took way too long to be served and even longer for the food to come. It took the sparkle off my birthday celebration which is why we went to spend my gift vouchers.

Came as we are celebrating my Dads 60th and he loves cars! Great little set up, food was amazing, coffee was perfect! He’s had a fabulous day

We visited the Carding Shed for a meal with friends. It was excellent, with good portions and some of the best chips I’ve had. The display of classic cars was worth a visit on its own too.

Before visiting I would suggest that you booked a table for a drink & light snack. A quirky cafe & the toasted tea cakes were very large. I took my father-in-law who loved the place. It was a great place full of nostalgia for the old & some insight into the past for the younger generations. It’s on the outskirts of Holmfirth so you could combine it with a visit. Some great displays of old cars & bikes. Look out for the Raleigh Chopper above the food counter.

A nice cafe to sit in with lots of lovely old fashioned cars. Nice location, friendly staff and great atmosphere.

A lovely quirky venue on the outskirts of Holmfirth that's great to combine with a visit to that lovely village. This venue is very busy and making a booking is recommended - many people were being turned away because they hadn't done so. The food offerings are basic but very tasty with locally sourced produce. Both the Sunday roast meal and afternoon tea were excellent. The staff are friendly, welcoming and courteous without being intrusive. Recommended for a visit. 👍

Brilliant cafe for the classic car automotive enthusiast. very large area with loads of tables, and a huge visual feast of classic automotive memorabilia everywhere. Food was great (it's a cafe remember, not a restaurant, so don't expect a large culinary menu or experience) The only let down was the service. The staff themselves were fantastic, very helpful and friendly, but for some unknown reason the service was very slow. Taking forever, and that was on low volume day. Even just getting service for drinks took an age. Still highly recommended, just factor in a decent wait.
