Staying at the CAMC caravan club- a bit of grocery shopping in the village-stopped at The Folly for coffee and cake as they are dog friendly (quite a few don’t allow dogs) lovely coffee and cake - large cup of latte (1 shot) and hubby had 2 cups of flat white (2 shot) as it was so good. He had the fruitcake with cheese and I had a piece of chocolate cake- both lovely. Doggy treats for our pooch was a nice touch. Very small- only 3 tables as you go in- not sure if any more through the back or upstairs. A bench outside for a nice warm today - which today was not! Very friendly service and seems popular with locals. Cash only.

We had a quick bite here today, cheese and marmite toastie and a ham and mustard sandwich, both were fabulous and freshly made accompanied by salad and crisps. We had a pot of tea and a coffee, which was also great. Service was friendly and our dog was made welcome. I would highly recommend this small independent coffee shop.

Great little cafe, really welcoming to both myself and the dogs. Dogs got given some treats which kept them quiet while I ate a lovely bacon sandwich. Would definitely recommend if you're in Hawes.
