Barkers Northallerton

One of the few department stores still left. Has a lovely restaurant and cafe and the service of all the staff is what you would expect of a high end store. Obviously not a cheap store as it sells designer wear and accessories, but the sales are often very good. Lovely department for cookware, glasses, crockery etc. too. I travel more than 25 miles to shop here.

I can only praise all of the staff in Barkers , they are always so welcoming and pleasant as well as helpful if you require any information on a product , they go beyond what you would normally expect . We received our new furniture yesterday and even down to the delivery team the service is outstanding , Thank you to everyone . We Love shopping at both Barkers home And Barkers Northallerton and can’t wait till our next visit , highly recommend both of the cafes and restaurants too .

Purchased mother of groom outfit, shoes , hat and bag from phase 8. Staff were excellent advising on accessories and bring different colours and sizes. Would highly recommend 👌

I went with my friend and was impressed the food. We both had a jacket potato, tuna, cheese, beetroot and salad. Very tasty, good size portions. We also had coffee and a Bakewell 🍰 slice. It was extremely busy but was worth the wait 😁

Lovely cafe with good food. Had to wait a little but it was very busy and it has a nice atmosphere so didn't mind too much. Food was lovely and good value

There are 3 areas in Barker's to indulge in eating and drinking. The main restaurant is usually very busy and suits those who want a self-service restaurant for meals and more. The Bistro is quieter and suitable for a nice brunch or lunch. The coffee shop accessed through ground level entrance is perfect for good coffees, beautiful cakes, and excellent service. Once you've selected your table with a reserved sign, you order and pay, and then it's delivered to you. Coffee is always great, as are the scones.

Popped in to see if they had anything for a birthday gift, came away with a beautiful scarf, hat and gloves set from a designer brand. The lady who served us was very friendly and pointed us to a gift wrapped service where another young lady did an amazing job gift wrapping my present.
Thank you.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff & a nice cafe

Me and my wife visited this lovely cafe for a coffee and a toasted teacakes. The staff were very welcoming and kind, and the cafe was very clean. It was a lovely atmosphere so will be back next time we visit.

What a joy to visit, we popped in for a morning treat, and that's exactly what we got! From the cheerful greeting when we entered, this was a really vibrant, clean, happy environment. The menu had a good variety of breakfast/morning fayre, along with the luscious cakes and treats on display when you walk in the door. We had bacon and egg in white and tea. Along with a very smooth cappuccino with soya and cinnamon sprinkled on. They had an instant recognition when I said non-dairy so offered cinnamon on the cappuccino instead, along with Oat or Soya alternative milk.
We were so impressed we came back before we went home but went to the first floor where they served hot food. We didn't try any on this occasion, however it looked mighty good and was reasonably priced. The staff all so helpful.
On this occasion we had apple and sultana cake, San pellegrino lemon, diet coke and a very bold Java served in a cafetiere. Seating very clean and cafe very airy and inviting.
We can't wait to return. We really enjoyed this visit! Thank you!

Fabulous place as we were on a coach day trip. Once off the coach, the girls from the council made us extremely welcome with vouchers and a smile. The store was very impressive with a cafe where we had a lovely lunch, well done Barkers, would highly recommend

Visited Barkers Furniture store and decided to have some lunch at the upstairs restaurant. The whole experience was excellent. Food and service outstanding from Kevin and his team. We will definately be making it a 'destination' for food in the future. Highly reccomend the prawn salad.

Decided to try the bistro for breakfast instead of going into the main restaurant.What a lovely experience,so relaxing,slightly more expensive but well worth it. Could not fault the breakfast or the staff .

My wife and I had lunch there with friends last week. Excellent food, very good service, and great value for money. Very highly recommended!

High end family department store split over 2 levels. Front ground floor comprising of cards and plush toys, beauty and perfumes, ladies jewellery, scarves etc. Middle ground comprising of ladies handbags, ladies and gents shoes trainers and boots. Rear ground floor comprising of menswear and kitchenware including some ornaments, scented candles etc. Upper floor comprises of ladies clothing, large cafe, bistro and children's clothing. This store has a huge range of items with amazing bargains to be found in the sales! There is also a separate homestore close by stocking beds, sofas, lighting, kitchenware and soft furnishings. It is a very special store.

Update - The only negative is on a Friday the whole upper floor where the clothing is located has a strong aroma of fish and chips. Which is not only nausiating for those not fond of fish. But also puts you off spending 100's on high brand clothing which will no doubt have the food smells permeated into them.

Excellent store with very helpful staff. As you walk through the store all the counter assistants speak to you with either good morning or good afternoon.

A rare breed in this day and age...a department store that still manages to attract customers. Very busy on both floors when we visited. Very impressed with the attractive displays and uncluttered well lit floor plan. There were plenty of seats for tired husbands to sit on and friendly helpful staff. Lots of quality brands to choose from. A delightful shop and always pop in when visiting Northallerton.

Called at the 1882 Cafe upstairs for the first time and was really impressed. The setting and food were first class.

Fantastic shop great designer clothes ,nice cafe aswell

Warm welcome. Comfy seating. Nice latte with a lovely fruit scone made it a good visit and a return scheduled next time in Northallerton.
