Called in at the fantastic Utopia on the Broughton Hall Estate just outside Skipton this afternoon, just for a coffee!  If you have not been, you really should try it, set in a superb location in what looks like the Hall’s walled kitchen garden the modern glass building is a stark contrast to the surroundings but it certainly works.

The menu features homemade & local food and although we only stopped for a coffee before our meeting I noticed the menu featured soup of the day, simple pasta dishes, sandwiches, ciabatta, a special burger and various delicious looking homemade cakes.  The prices for coffee, cakes & sandwiches are all very reasonable.

I tried a latte & the homemade rocky road brownie, a large chunky slice of chocolate, biscuit, nuts, marshmallows & even some Turkish delight, delicious…
