My partner and I visited here while on a mini cottage break in Holmfirth. I don’t like hot curry’s so stick to mild I ordered Butter chicken the chicken was nice but I didn’t like the sauce it had to much spices in for what...MoreSo sorry the butter chicken wasn't as mild as u expected.. but we do use hint of ground spice in that dish for added flavour As for service .. my waiting staff are usually very attentive..I will look further into that ; Thanks

Reviewed By Paul R - Holmfirth, United Kingdom
Took some visitors from London here! Very small venue over two floors. Tables and chairs so tightly packed it's difficult to move between them. However this helps with the ambiance of the place, which is noisy and vibrant. Unfortunately there is only one small toilet for upwards of 40 covers.
Food, as name suggests is North African, tapas style. It is good but pricey. Staff a bit nonchalant but owner helpful and pleasant

Called for Dinner with Friends, Most if not all the tables were booked.
Led to our tables & our drinks were brought to us, Nice choice of beers, Food was served pretty promptly & was very very good. Staff seemed a tad fraught after a busy lunch service but all in all the experience was very good.
Would benefit from another member of staff or getting your own drinks from the bar in my opinion but it shouldn't detract from what is excellent Food & can easily be improved.

Been here lots over the last couple of years, it’s a very good place to come for lunch.
The staff are friendly, it’s busy, but the service is quick, the views are great and most importantly the food is very good.
Mistakes are made occasionally, (like today...the very nice hot roast baguette came on the wrong bread) hence not 5 stars, but I’d recommend.

This is a must for Last of the Summer Wine fans. Basic menu, but who cares...it’s Sid’s Cafe! Parking is non existent next to the cafe, but there is a supermarket near by with a large car park.

A bar where great music of all genres comes together with craft beer from all over the world, classic cocktails, great wine and service, to create an atmosphere unlike any other."Buy the ticket. Take the ride"Hunter S Thompson
Reviewed By Shrinkray - Yorkshire
Friday evening drinks. Nicely busy, with some people eating but mostly drinking and chatting. Music was good (indie I guess) and not too intrusive. Drinks were good - craft beers, cocktails, interesting rums (great!) and gins. Most notable was that the staff were very knowledgeable about the drinks, and keen to help us try something different. Really welcoming and friendly. Great.
