Eating and shopping at Treasurer’s House

The café at Treasurer’s House

Home to the National Trust Scone Blogger's favourite ever scone.

You don't need a ticket for Treasurer's House to use the café. The daily menu changes however, feel free to stop by and enjoy something tasty.

A flavour of what's on offer this season...

• Turkey, cranberry and stuffing sandwiches, vegan alternative available
• Brie, cranberry and spinach toastie
• Leek and potato soup
• Christmas cake
• Chocolate and orange shortbread
• Gingerbread latte with whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon

And speaking of cakes and scones, they're made fresh with different flavours to suit your tastebuds. During the festive season, try the infamous Christmas pudding scone, the favourite scone from the scone blogger's quest to try scones at every National Trust place.

There's seating inside the café, including high chairs for the youngest customers. Alternatively, you can take your refreshments away with you to enjoy outside.

Please note that the café is located downstairs and there are no lifts. Opening times mirror the house and garden.

Second-hand books

A new addition to the below stairs area of Treasurer's House are shelves with donations of pre-loved books. It's the perfect virtuous circle, peruse and pick one out if you're having a brew. When you've found something you like, leave your donation and take it home for your next read.

If and when you're having a book clear out yourself, donate back for onward sale. All donations support the work of the charity including looking after the places in our care in York.
