"I have had a number of pleasant and relaxing visits to Lydia's Cake away. It has been amazing each visit, with a streamlined menu to meet a number of differing, customers requirements . In addition, Lydia, the owner is welcoming, smiling and extremely friendly. Nothing is to much trouble, the food, nibbles, cakes and drinks are beautiful, at tasty competative prices. Morover, her delights are homemade, her baking is exquisite, that's for sure, and presentation makes for a great experience with bespoke China pottery. This little cafe is a popular meeting place for many, hosting varied events for different occasions, such as a recent Harry Potter themed events, and can be booked for even clubs and get togethers . There are plenty of options including, varied dietery and allergy requirements that are and can be catered for, not to mention veggie based products. Furthermore, it is relaxing, watching the world go bye through the oanaramic window, overlooking Newland Avenue. The foods you will find and to be reccomended through experience are bagels, with cream cheese and strawberries, cheese and Tomato toasties with salad and tortilla chips. Finally, Earl Grey tea in China cups, topped off with a slice of cake, for me it was lime cake, to comiment the savoury course. Great coffee shop, pleasant owner and staff, bespoke surroundings, relaxing and has a 5 on the door, not surprised, its lovely and clean, a little hidden gem. The cafe and owner welcomes changing for people who would like to bring their babies, children, toddlers to a warm and embracing envoiroment . A must for all, Lydia has put her heart and sole into this cafe, and it shows, I could sit their all day and often do and she always remembers conversations had to follow up when you return, impressive ! Give this local place and Lydia and team your support!!!!!"

Went to Lydia’s for the Harry Potter afternoon tea. Loved it. Everything was clearly handmade and home baked. A lot of thought had obviously gone into choosing each item of food to fit the theme and everything tasted amazing.

I discovered this cozy café thanks to a friend's recommendation. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised by everything I ordered. The service was excellent, with the staff behind the counter being very friendly.

Popped in for some soup and a drink one cold afternoon. Noticed there seemed to be knitting groups and film afternoons advertised in this small cafe. Nice to see a place that opens its space to groups to meet. The girl behind the counter was very friendly.

I have been coming to this restaurant for the past two and a half years and I cannot find any faults with it. The staff is always friendly and accommodating, the cakes are delicious, and the atmosphere is fantastic. I plan on continuing to come here for many more years to come!

I went here with two friends for a catch up before I go work abroad!! The staff were really friendly and welcoming, we ordered a toastie and a can of coke for starts then ordered a milkshake and cake, the staff member informed us it would be cheaper to do it as afternoon tea and with that we got six pieces of cake each and a milkshake in a teapot!! It was great!!

I hired the room for a hen party, Lydia staff were fantastic, really helpful and the place itself was perfect for the theme I'd planned. I could arrange things as I needed which was fantastic. The tea and cakes available we're delicious and when a guest had a dietry need it wasn't a problem at all. All in all a perfect venue and made the day truly special. Thank you Lydia.

I stopped by for a pot of tea and slice of cake at this cafe, where I caught up on the latest events, new ideas, and recipes. The visit was great, with a relaxing atmosphere and plenty of cake and drink options. Lydia provided friendly service as always, welcoming guests with a smile and cheer. The cafe offers themed events for both children and adults, such as Murder Mystery and Harry Potter nights. Lydia's homemade cakes, including vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan options, are delicious. Custom cakes can also be ordered in advance for special occasions. To book an event at Lydia's, check out the Facebook page or contact her directly. Overall, the cafe provides a fantastic experience with...

We attended Lydia’s ‘ cakeaway’ in Hull for Disney afternoon tea after my sister had seen it advertised on Facebook. After booking and being excited we attended and was disappointed and underwhelmed. At £10 each adults and child alike I thought the food would be wonderful, and the atmosphere electric with excitement. It sadly was not. The room was cold. The food came on just one platter between us and a few sandwiches and biscuits with cakes. Yes they resembled a famous mouse shape, hero biscuit and princess cupcake but not wow! More like what I give my daughter for a picnic at home. The music was on in the background but anyone can play a Disney playlist as we do at home. I thought perhaps...

"Decided to go for a nice lunch out as weather was nice, walked into restaurant which was freezing (colder than what it was out side), we were seated directly in front of the open door and the draft was so cold. I asked for the door to be shut, I was told they can’t shut the door and we were told to move to the table behind, which was still in line with the door, defeating the object of moving. I asked to sit in the corner of the restaurant and was told no as it had to be a table of 2 we were seated at. I asked another member of staff to shut the door and they said no because it is too hot for the members of staff who were “running” around, even though it was really quiet. I explained that i don’t want to eat in a freezing cold restaurant that’s drafty as my food will get cold. I was told to put my jacket on by a member of staff, which had an extremely rude tone to it , and also why would I want to sit and eat a meal with my jacket on? She said if we don’t want to be cold, we can go eat elsewhere and gave us 5 minutes decide whether we wanted to order food. By the time They brought our drinks over, we said we were going to leave, they asked us to pay for our drinks that we hadn’t touched, we declined due to the staff failing to accommodate to us and being rude. The fact they would rather us leave than simply close the door or move us to a different table is disgusting and I felt that because I am a young person, they felt like they could belittle me. This is a real shame as the food and drinks here are really nice, but I’m not going to give my money to a restaurant who only accommodate to their staffs needs and not the customers. They could’ve easily shut the door or moved us out of line with the door, absolutely ridiculous and awful service."
