Is Greendale Teahouse & Rooms closing?

Yes. Greendale Teahouse & Rooms, as operated by our family team, has closed on permanently on Bank Holiday Monday 25 May 2026.

We have shared a fuller statement here:

www.greendaleteahouse.co.uk/closure

Are you open?

Yes, you’ll be pleased to hear that the Teahouse remains open for breakfast, brunch and cakes until Bank Holiday Monday 25 May, while we are still accepting bookings for our cosy Bed & Breakfast rooms until that day (depending on availability). For our current opening hours, see pop up or visit our Google Maps listing.

What’s going to happen to the building?

We don’t know. The future of Greendale is a matter for others.

Are you open in the evening?

No, we pour everything into making our food from scratch, and opening in the evening would simply be too much! Having said that, did you know that we host special evening events from time to time, so if you’d like to be the first to hear about them, sign up for our newsletter at the bottom of this page.

Do you offer options for those with dietary requirements or food allergies?

At Greendale Teahouse & Rooms, we hand-craft every dish in house, with lots of care and attention. Our dedication extends to offering options for various dietary needs. For instance, we take pride in creating our own gluten-free bread and frequently feature special gluten-free treats. We're happy to tweak some of our menu items, wherever possible, to cater to individual dietary requirements. Additionally, we strive to offer delicious vegan and vegetarian-friendly dishes.

It’s important to note that our kitchen space is limited, and while we maintain rigorous standards, a chance of cross-contamination is possible. Your safety is paramount to us, so please don't hesitate to let us know about any dietary restrictions before placing your order. We're here to make your dining experience enjoyable and worry-free.

Do you offer a takeaway service?

While we don't typically offer takeout food, we do have a limited selection of items available for takeaway on our menu. These include hot and cold drinks, sandwiches and some cakes. If you're interested in grabbing a quick bite on the go, feel free to ask about our available takeaway options when you visit us.

Can I buy your bread?

We're truly flattered by the demand for our delicious home baked bread, but sadly we currently do not offer loaves for retail sale. Our small team is dedicated to providing freshly baked bread for our guests to enjoy during their visit, and unfortunately, we are unable to keep up with the demand for retail sales. We appreciate your understanding and invite you to come and enjoy our homemade bread during your visits to Greendale Teahouse & Rooms.

Can I buy a gift voucher?

Sadly, we’re no longer selling gift vouchers. If you’d like to treat a friend or loved one to a Greendale gift, invite them along - that way, you’ll get to enjoy the experience too!

Is Greendale Teahouse & Rooms an accessible venue?

We understand the importance of accessibility for all our guests. Our charming Victorian-era building predates the installation of lifts, please note that there are stairs leading to the bedrooms. We've taken steps to make your visit as comfortable as possible; although there's a gravel path from the car park to the front entrance, we've reserved a small parking area at the front of the house for those with reduced mobility, allowing for easier access to the teahouse.

However, we want to be transparent about the challenges you may encounter during your visit. From the main dining room, there are a couple of steps to navigate towards the toilets, and regrettably, we do not have an accessible washroom.

Your comfort and convenience are important to us, and we're continuously exploring ways to improve accessibility and ensure that all guests feel welcome and accommodated during their time at Greendale Teahouse & Rooms.

Are you licensed?

In deed we are! We’re all about enjoyment of the finer things in life here at Greendale Teahouse & Rooms - we're fully licensed and have partnered with the Wright Wine Company, Skipton, to bring you an exciting selection of wines. From crisp whites to bold reds, our small but carefully curated wine list is sure to tantalise your taste buds. And if you're looking for something bubbly, we've got you covered with single-serve bottles of Prosecco or larger bottles of fantastic Cava!

But the excitement for a tipple doesn't stop there. We also have a small selection of Belgian beers, perfect for those looking to explore new flavours. And when the chill sets in, warm up with a glass of Michael's renowned mulled wine, guaranteed to add a touch of festive cheer to any occasion.

At Greendale Teahouse & Rooms, we're passionate about creating memorable foodie experiences, and our drinks selection is no exception. Join us and raise a glass to good times and great company!

Do you have rooms suitable for families?

While we don't have specific family rooms or interconnecting rooms, we do have one room that's spacious enough to accommodate a travel cot for a baby or toddler, provided guests bring their own. Unfortunately, small children wouldn't be able to stay in a separate room due to our room layout.

However, if we have the availability, teenagers could stay in a separate room from their parents. Just let us know your needs when booking, and we'll do our best to accommodate your family comfortably. We're here to ensure your stay at Greendale Teahouse & Rooms is enjoyable for everyone!

Do you offer Afternoon Tea?

While we don’t serve a formal afternoon tea on a tiered stand, we do offer a charming ‘tea in the afternoon’ selection focused on quality and flavour. We’re constantly at work in our small kitchen crafting homemade delights, from freshly baked scones and cakes to savoury sandwiches – all handmade with care and the finest ingredients.

A unique tea list curated exclusively for us by Quinteassential and great coffee roasted by the experts at Heavenly Coffee Company, are served throughout the afternoon, making it a lovely time to settle in, relax, and savour the simple joys of good food in cosy surroundings. It’s our long term intention to serve a more formal afternoon tea experience in future but can’t yet commit when that will be, so why not sign up for our newsletter below? You’ll be first to know!

Can I buy a whole one of Zoe’s cakes?

Yes, you can! Zoe’s cakes are something special, and we’re happy to make a whole one just for you. We need about a week’s notice to work our magic. A round cake serves at least 12 generous slices and starts from £54, while a loaf cake comfortably feeds 8 people and starts from £32. If you’d like to place an order, just get in touch—we’d love to bake something delicious for you!
