A huge, heartfelt thank you to all our incredible walkers, Coast-to-Coast adventurers, cyclists, families and battery-drained legends!
​Whether you stopped in for coffee or food and asked to recharge a phone, power up an e-bike, or plug in a laptop, you didn't just top up your batteries—you stepped up for our community. Thanks to your amazing generosity, your donations in lieu of electricity raised a fantastic amount for the heroes at Swaledale Mountain Rescue.
​You are truly the best customers a place could ask for. Thank you for making a real difference while on your journeys!

🎆 Firework Night in Reeth — Up Your Comfort Game!
​Traditional Geordie Broth & Buttered Stottie
​(Back by popular demand for Year 2!)
​After the massive success of our first Firework Night takeaway last year, we’re coming back bigger and better to keep you warm on the Green!
​This year, we’re upping the ante. We’re pairing every steaming-hot cup of our slow-cooked Geordie Broth with a freshly baked, thick-sliced, heavily buttered Geordie Stottie.
​🔥 The Ultimate Hand-Warmer On The Green:
​Slow-Cooked Goodness: Rich ham, garden veggies, and hearty pearl barley, brewed slow and served piping hot in convenient takeaway cups.
​The Famous Geordie Stottie: Heavy, soft, and made for dunking, tearing, and mopping up every last drop while you watch the display.
​Pure Shield Against the Swaledale Chill: Guaranteed to keep hands and bellies warm from the first bang to the final rocket.
​"Forget lukewarm soup — this is thick, honest, slow-cooked comfort in a cup."
​📍 Pop in and grab your takeaway broth on your way to the fireworks!
​(Vegetarian broth option available and a gluten free lentil soup)

Imagine taking that first bite: a warm, incredibly tender spiced apple cake infused with rich toffee, topped with buttery melt-in-your-mouth fudge bits, a luxurious drizzle of warm homemade caramel, and that perfect crunchy finish of sweet toffee popcorn. It is absolute autumn perfection in every single slice—cozy, indulgent, and pure comfort on a plate.

There is a specific kind of magic reserved strictly for crisp autumn days. 🍂✨
​Outside, the air is sharp and smells rich with petrichor and fallen leaves. Inside, behind a steam-fogged window, time slows down completely.
​Sitting here with a rich, velvety flat white and a mixed berry mille-feuille feels like the ultimate seasonal indulgence. Caramelized, golden pastry shattering under the fork, smooth vanilla cream, and a bright burst of tart berries—paired with dark, hot coffee to keep the chill at bay. ☕️🍰
​Autumn really is at its finest when served on a pastry fork. 🍁

Hi people of the Dales,
Can anyone give me a timeline of the copper kettle? When did it cease being an Ironmongers? When did it become a tearoom? Who owned it?
We would be excited to hear any history anyone has.
Thanks,
Sarah and the CK Team
