The tea-room at East Riddlesden Hall

The bothy

Traditionally a bothy would have provided basic accommodation for estate or farm workers, today it houses the tea-room and shop. The tea-room is on the first floor and seats 69 people, tables and seats are available on the ground floor for anyone who may struggle with the stairs. The tea-room is a relaxed and friendly place to meet up with friends.

Plants, not plastic...

As a conservation charity, we’re committed to keeping the environment healthy and beautiful. Our disposable cups, plates and cutlery are fully biodegradable and are made from recycled and plant-based materials.  We only use paper straws and provide free drinking water as standard. Find out more about what we’re doing to phase out single use plastic.

Support our work

Did you know that we need to sell 30 scones to pay for four hours of intricate repair work to a 400 year-old wall hanging at East Riddlesden Hall? Every purchase made in the tea-room supports our work here, so whilst you’re catching up with friends over a coffee you’re also helping to keep centuries of history alive for generations to come.
