Got a question? You’re probably not the first.
Where do I park for Annabel’s?
We’ve got a few recommended parking options depending on who you’re visiting with and how much of a walk you fancy. White Rose Way Park & Ride is our most popular option for families and pushchairs, Parrot’s Corner Park & Ride is best if you fancy a longer walk of around 4 miles each way, and we keep a small number of spaces in Loversall village for families with very little legs. Full details are on our Find Us page.
How do I get to Annabel’s from the car park?
Annabel’s is reached on foot from our recommended parking locations. We’ve put together clear walking routes for each one, so have a quick look at the Find Us page before you set off.
Is Annabel’s suitable for children and families?
Very much so. Annabel’s is a relaxed place for families to spend some time together — have a walk, get some fresh air, stop for food and drinks, and toast a few marshmallows around the firepit while you’re here. If you use our White Rose Way walking route, you’ll even pass a great play park on the way.
Is Annabel’s suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs?
Pushchairs are very welcome, and White Rose Way is the parking and walking option we recommend for families. If someone in your group has reduced mobility or would struggle with the walk, please contact us before visiting so we can arrange direct vehicle access where needed.
Do you have indoor or covered seating if it rains?
Yes. The majority of our seating is covered, so a bit of Yorkshire weather doesn’t have to spoil the visit.
Do you serve alcohol?
Yes. Great coffee is obviously a big part of what we do, but if it’s more of a beer kind of day, we’ve got that covered too.
How long is the walk to Annabel’s?
It depends where you park. White Rose Way is just over a mile away, Loversall village is also just over a mile, and Parrot’s Corner is around 4 miles each way if you really want to earn the treat at the end.
Can I drive directly to Annabel’s?
There isn’t general customer parking directly at the café. If you or someone you’re visiting with can’t manage the walk for mobility or accessibility reasons, please contact us in advance and we can arrange vehicle access. This does need to be organised before the day of your visit.
Are there toilets at Annabel’s?
Yes, there are toilet facilities at Annabel’s.
Is there a tractor or shuttle service to Annabel’s?
Not on a normal café day. Our Tractor Tram — which started life as a donkey box before getting a fairly major career change — only comes out for selected special occasions. If it’s running, it will always be clearly advertised as part of that event.
What events and live music do you have coming up?
Our special nights include Barn Bingo, Quizzed Up and live music, along with the occasional other idea that takes our fancy. They aren’t always planned months in advance, so the best way to hear about the next one is to follow us on social media.
When is Annabel’s open?
We’re open Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 10am–4pm. We’re closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Do I need to book a table, or can I just turn up?
No booking needed — Annabel’s is walk-in only. Just turn up, find yourself a spot and we’ll look after you from there.
Do you serve breakfast?
Yes, we do. Breakfast is served alongside lunch, cakes, coffee and plenty of other treats.
We serve breakfast all day. From a Full English to a veggie breakfast wrap, you don’t need to get here first thing to get your breakfast fix. We do reserve the right to remove breakfast options without prior notice if needed.
Do you have vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options?
Yes, we do have gluten-free options, both savoury and sweet. Examples include gluten-free paninis, gluten-free breakfasts, gluten-free brownie and carrot cake, a vegetarian breakfast wrap and a vegan Full English.
Can Annabel’s be hired for private parties or events?
Yes. Annabel’s is available for private hire after 4pm. If you’ve got a party, celebration or event in mind, get in touch and we can talk through the options with you.
Do you cater for food allergies?
Yes, we’re happy to cater for allergies and dietary requirements wherever we can. Please let a member of the team know about any allergies before ordering so we can help you choose the most suitable options. Allergens are handled in our kitchen, so we can’t guarantee that any dish is completely free from traces of allergens.
Do you have a children’s menu?
We don’t have a separate children’s menu, but there are plenty of child-friendly options to choose from.
Are dogs allowed at Annabel’s?
Absolutely. We’re properly dog friendly. Dogs are a big part of Annabel’s, so muddy paws, wagging tails and slightly overenthusiastic greetings are all very welcome.
Can Annabel’s be hired for private parties or events?
Yes. Annabel’s is available for private hire after 4pm. If you’ve got a party, celebration or event in mind, get in touch and we can talk through the options with you.
