Popular with locals and tourists, we managed to find a table here on a busy Saturday lunchtime. The menu provided exactly what we needed on a blustery day, a delicious soup and a baguette plus coffee for about £13 per head. Service was excellent, friendly and attentive without being OTT.
Bought a few bits in the deli and couldn't resist the mouthwatering display of cakes to takeaway.
This is a gem of a place. Lucky residents of Saltburn to have this amenity.- Meal type

Ooo thank you Liz! So glad you enjoyed your visit and we tempted you with take outs! To think we thought storm Amy would mean we were quiet!
Popped in for cake and tea. Both were excellent. I just wish I had enough room for lunch as the savoury options looked delicious.

Popped in for a cuppa and a slice of cake. Lots of savoury options which all looked very tasty but I chose carrot cake. Absolutely delicious. One of the best I've had! And I always love a pot of tea for two that comes with extra hot water without even asking for it. Bravo!

This place was faultless! We arrived in the hope of finding a free table on a Sat lunchtime and the place was full but as luck would have it, a couple were leaving. We grabbed a table and a lovely waitress was with us immediately to clear the table and take our drinks order. She was enthusiastic, friendly, helpful and informative. We both ordered from the specials board, my husband had the spicy lentil soup (£5) and I had the baked mushroom topped with bacon and brie with salted potatoes and salad (£10). Both were scrumptious. The lovely waitress reacted quickly to our requests for more drinks. I have to say our visit was faultless from start to finish. Thank you!Owner response

Thanks Sam! Great to hear you’re still loving Real Meals x
The food here is always lovely and the service us very good too. The one thing I would say could be improved is the tables and chairs outside. I think for a small lay out, it could be much more comfortable You can get 2 chairs and a table for £50. The existing one are low, flimsy and uncomfortable

Hi. Thanks for leaving a review-and glad you’re enjoying our freshly made food. We will have to take a look at the outside seating! We need folding chairs and tables that can be easily put up and down by everyone-but we would like people to feel safe on them😊
A lovely stop for food and drink. Staff were friendly and the food was delicious.

Thanks Todd. We really appreciate reviews and feedback, but we’ll be aiming for a 5 next time, what would you suggest makes the difference?
Visited this friendly deli cafe today for lunch and it’s a real gem. Staff so friendly and attentive and food was wonderful. We had the broccoli and Stilton soup which was so good and gluten free. Even had a gluten free biscuit with my drink, never had that offered before. Will definitely make this a regular stop when in Saltburn. Thank you to you all for such a great lunch. Also the deli looks glorious.

Went in for lunch and all was very nice. The lady serving us was extremely friendly and was very helpful explaining all of the gluten free options that were on offer. The toasties that we had were very nice and the sicilian lemon cake was so good. I would recommend going to this cafe if you are in Saltburn.
