The Wheldrakes storefront on Goodramgate

A small café with plenty on the counter.

Wheldrakes is a small independent, family-run café on Goodramgate. The counter brings together a house-blend coffee, plentiful teas and homemade treats, while the menu moves from full English breakfasts to eggs on sourdough, sandwiches and weekly specials. It is an easy place to pause in the centre of York, whether you are starting the day with a generous plate or stopping in for coffee and cake. Everything here keeps the focus on familiar food, a cosy room and the kind of welcome that makes a local café worth returning to.
