Lovely little spot to sit and enjoy a nice cocoa or cup of tea.

Located in the centre of the town, next to the bus-stop, York Tea Rooms is THE place to go for high…read morequality snacks and lunches. Sandwiches are made from fresh baked loaves and slices are hand cut (giving you a substantial sandwich!), and fillings include Wensleydale and cranberry and Yorkshire Ham and mustard. The coffees and teas are from the Taylors range so high quality. The front of the coffee shop faces out into the square and is a great place to sit and have a toasted teacake and watch as people come and go. The staff are welcoming and helpful and the service swift, the atmosphere is that of a posh place, and while I have managed to get in there with a small pram, I wouldn't feel comfortable with a noisy toddler! The prices reflect the menu and the average sandwich is around £4.95 so not a cheap snack. Highly recommended for a quiet coffee and snack to break up your shopping or with a friend.

Don't let the outside of Bambers put you off - it is very bare and doesn't look welcoming - but has…read moregood coffee, sandwiches, sticky cakes etc and does a mean bacon sarnie. When they started out they offered fairtrade, organic and locally sourced produce - but unfortunately I don't think Darlington was ready for it. They still try to be ethical but for a cheaper budget. Personally I like Bambers and I'd much rather support them than the multinational coffee chains.
