Long famous as a place for cyclists and walkers to stop, this Cafe on the route of the Woodhead Road is dog and boot friendly. When the Tour de France came to Yorkshire in 2014 the owner painted the cafe to resemble the polkadot jersey awarded to the "King of the Mountains", telling the local newspaper that he expected to be made to remove the colour scheme once the race had gone. 18 months later it is still there.
