The Station

Saturday 13th September about 10am. We hadn't planned to visit The Station but due to the ridiculous parking fiasco in Richmond (cash only payments, only 2 hours parking etc in 3 other car parks we visited. Recommend doing good parking research before visiting! Cash only payments is archaic!) Anyway, we ended up here and decided to have breakfast instead of the original plan of breakfast in town. The breakfast was very good. The atmosphere was light and airy and you can still see the original station platform. You sit where the trains would have pulled in. You can easily walk into town along the river or along the road but I would beware of the traffic. It is signposted 20mph across the bridge but the majority of vehicles certainly weren't adhering to the speed limit. The proprietor should look at offering more review categories. It mentions buying tickets but not about the food or the amount spent etc. We didn't visit The Station to buy tickets.

Lovely repurposed old station in Richmond North Yorkshire. Cafe, cinema, shops, artwork, ice-cream and micro pub. Building was really well maintained and really clean. Cafe was excellent with good choices of food. A wander down by the river is also recommended.

Quiet when we arrived at about 3.40pm. We were shown to our table. We just wanted tea, coffee and scone and tray bake. All very nice. Lovely historic location. Nice gallery of artwork. Cinema in same building. Swimming pool adjacent and lovely walks. Maximum stay in car park is 4 hours, recent price increase. Internal photo and some of Easby Abbey which is a walk away.

Stopped off at the station on our way to the Richmond Falls, Easby Abbey, and Easby Hall what a fantastic transformation and space, cafes, cinema 🎥, micro Brewery, art, sweets shop and fitness suites. Did our walk, then on the way back, stopped off for a well-deserved cuppa and fresh scones. All together, a fantastic day out.

Phoned a head booked table very polite staff on phone so started well. Good one way system. Very clean tidy social distancing fab ordered food. Only had sandwich and tea but arrived in good time. I very much enjoyed vegetable crisps husband wasn't a fan but could have had chips instead. Food was lovely. Well maintained place. Obviously with covid not all areas open but definitely recommend and will visit again. Staff were very professional relaxed and made you feel comfortable. Definitely worth visiting. Wish we lived closer to go more often.

Went into the station for lunch, 1st time going in to eat but pleasantly surprised by the quality of service and food. We ordered egg/mayo sandwich, and expected it to come on small plate but it came with side salad and crisps ,our coffee was a treat far better than any other coffee shops. Went for a walk along side river swale underneath the canopy of trees

A beautiful vintage-restored place, Includes a cinema, a large café, an open art gallery, independent art and gift shops, a very good (and expensive) bakery and a chocolate shop. There is a book corner and a few comfy chairs righr nextcto it and the atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming. Also, there are public toilets, a lot of parking and a famous ice cream shop. It's within a short walking distance to the town centre, so it's a good parking option (£3 for 4 hours!) on a visit to Richmond. You can take a walking trail some of them start here), enjoy the beautiful scenery of the river Swale, climb up to the town centre (300 meters away), have lunch and then climb down to the carpark, buy a beautiful piece of arr/craft made by a local artist (very reasonable prices) and return home. A perfect day!

Arrived too late for breakfast so had coffee and cake which was excellent. Later on came back for lunch which again was excellent, my Katsu chicken was perfect, not hot but delicious curry sauce. The food is definitely worth coming back for. What isn’t is up to speed is the staff! They are generally quite rude in their abruptness. It’s that “really did you have to make us work today” feeling received by their curtness. I witnessed the next table walking ( 5 adults & 2 children), when spoken to by one of the staff in an abrupt and discourteous manner. Oh well, 4 stars for fab food and lovely surroundings.

An Arts center in an old station- we stopped for tea and lunch. A fairly unimaginative and mediocre menu. Pablo had egg mayo sandwich, more bread than egg. A side of "potato skins" drowned in well I'm not sure what, made for a sloppy mess. My tomato tart with goat cheese was more goat cheese and pastry than tomato, the accompanying new potatoes were delicious. Not worth the walk unless going to the Cinema.

Recently had breakfast here on a Sunday morning. Lovely surroundings, clean and great service. Good coffee and great eggs. What more can one ask for...

What a real nice use of the old station. Popped in after a local walk for coffee. Nice clean, well lite coffee shop. Know people that have been to the cinema & found it also nice.

The rennovation of the old Station in Richmond is complete and what a grat job they've done! The town now has it's own cinema alongside a small museum describing the branch trainline which used to run from the main eastcoast route to the dales town of Richmond. Also incuded in the site is a restaurant, art gallery and various small workshop units where business can be based. Whilst we were ther ethey gallery was showing black and white photos of when the station was in use, a very long way from when I remember it being a garden centre!

Brilliant restoration of the original train station - great use of the space and lovely that they have left some of the old memorabilia so the building feels familiar. There is a small cinema (3 screens) which host both main stream and creative films in both the day and evening. The main forecourt as you enter (which used to be the railway tracks) has been controverted into an open plan restaurant/cafe serving light bites and main meals along with local beers and wine available. Oh and did i mention the cake selection!? Off either side of the main area are a selection of boutique local producers, cheese, toffee and beer being a few of the delights you can sample. Well worth a pit stop if you are passing through.

This is the place I go for movies. I never go to catterick and this is always a main place to meet in Richmond. The food here is great and there is always a wide range of good movies for anyday of the week

Lovely building, would definately like to go back and walk along the old train tracks. Cafe is a great and relatively cheap stop to have some lunch. Some nice little shops along the corridor although they could be signposted better form the entrance. We paid around £14 for a mix of side orders and coffees for 2 adults and one child
