The Arches Coffee Lounge - Selby

I ordered an English breakfast and was extremely disappointed. It was excessively greasy with broken egg yolks, appearing as a complete mess. To make matters worse, I was charged £2.85 for a can of Coke. When I questioned the price, I was given a refund and told it was due to the sugar tax. I found this explanation to be unfounded and ridiculous.

Amazing quality value. We popped in for lunch on Bank Holiday Monday the place was full but the service was super quick, once we had placed our order. We had the steak pie it was absolutely gorgeous, with real suet pastry the beef dripping gravy was to die for. I don't know how you do it for the price? A huge huge well done to all the team, we will be back.

I ordered the Quiche, but what I received was more like a creme brulee with tomatoes in it. It was truly terrible, but I felt too awkward to complain. I was hungry, so I ended up eating a quarter of it before I realized how bad it tasted. The chips and salad were mediocre at best. I didn't feel like making my own at home, so I guess they were passable. On a different day, I probably would have said something about the food.

My husband, granddaughter and I popped in to the Arches for lunch today. Pleasant though it was I was disappointed that having selected a chicken sandwich from the menu I was told We haven 't sold chicken for years . I suggested that maybe they should take it off their menu then, to which the lady said, then we 'd have to reprint and laminate all the menus !!!!!! This mammoth task would have probably been no more than 20 menus at a stretch. Obviously never heard of a permanent marker or tippex either.

Lunch was brilliant again, good portions, I always have the steak pie with chips and veg, my daughter changes every time today she had jacket potato with tuna it was so big, and they always accommodate my granddaughter she had 2sausages and some of my chips as there is always to much for me, the staff are lovely always make us feel very welcome.
