We twice visited Caffe Curva last week for coffee and the best cheese scones we've had for a long time.Customer review, shared by Caffè Curva on Instagram

I thought the full English was beautiful but it was nothing compared to the homemade rosti. Chef was making them fresh when we arrived and said there would be a wait. It was worth it!Customer

Caffè Curva · Hawes

A little bit of sunshine, whatever the weather.

The flowers on the tables came from Pat's garden, a gift to the café. The rest is homemade here: breakfast, brunch, lunch, cakes and scones, with fresh coffee from 9am.
