Milchig, Hull

Milchig

Tucked in Hull’s bustling Paragon Arcade is the best spot for coffee and cake. With an incredible scandi vibe, Milchig is cool without even trying.

Pop down for a matcha and one of their mouthwatering sarnies. Since 2020, they’ve gone from a small bakery to one of the best cafes in Hull that you simply can’t miss.

Where? Unit 12, Paragon Arcade, Hull HU1 3PQ

Thieving Harrys, cafes in Hull

Thieving Harry’s

At the forefront of Hull’s developing coffee scene is Theiving Harry’s, using beans that are roasted in Hull, seasonally changing their blend. The perfect cafe in Hull to watch the world go by alongside a speciality brew.

If you’re peckish, you’re definitely in the right place, serving breakfast, lunch AND dinner. Their menu is fail-safe and can be enjoyed overlooking Hull’s docks.

Where? 73 Humber St, Hull HU1 1UD

Breakfast plates, Nibble @ the Dock

Nibble @ The Dock

Right in the heart of Hull’s docks is Nibble – authentic, homely and oozing with character. Brunching all day and all week, their menu is bursting with comforting and flavourful favourites like a classic eggs Benedict or some innovative additions like smoked haddock chowder.

We love a cafe that does more, so why not head down to their run club, stretch your legs, and afterwards enjoy some coffee and their bakes!

Where? Nibble @ The Dock, Queen St, Hull HU1 1UU

Flour and Feast, Hull

Flour and Feast

Everything sold is made at Flour and Feast. Viennoiserie, sandwiches, cakes, pastries, you name it, they do it, and they do it well.

It’s an artisan bakery-come-cafe in Hull’s old fruit market, using traditional methods to make baked goods that are not so traditional.

Where? 10 Humber St, Hull HU1 1TG

Barleys vegan cafe, exterior

Barleys

When they opened in 2020, Barleys was one of the only vegan cafes in Hull. Five years later, they’ve moved premises to accommodate their growing menu and expanding customer base.

Whether you’re in the mood for a yoga brunch, a coffee and a catch-up or even a delicious handmade sandwich, Barleys can always guarantee great food and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Where? 123 Newland Ave, Hull HU5 2ES

Wonky Tulip, Hull

Wonky Tulip

Coffee and a cake for only £5! You simply cannot refuse, especially when it comes from Wonky Tulip. Using local suppliers, Dough and Deserts, you can be assured that everything they have to offer is made with love.

With a bright purple shop front in the heart of Hull’s Old Town, it’s hard to miss and for very good reason. Indulge in a local blend of coffee alongside a slice of freshly baked cake – dream afternoon!

Where? 147a High St, Scale Ln, Hull HU1 1PS
