When bossman puts out a cry for help, the socials team spring into action.

Eddie is reviewing cctv footage as we speak.

Luckily/unfortunately, we don’t have cameras in the toilets (bit weird & frowned upon) but we do have some intel from our front of house staff, combined with a customer reporting the handle appearing to be missing… so there’s an incredibly specific time as to when this crime occurred.

Anyone who knows Eddie, knows he loves a bit of tomfoolery, banter and dad jokes, so we’ll join in: YOU HAVE TWENTY FOUR HOURS TO RETURN IT.

It was fifteen quid.

Just pop in, pop it by the til & say no more…

IF YOU FAIL TO RETURN IT, you will be revealed and forever known as The Hopeless Handle Snatcher of Haxby.

Tick tock… (as in a ticking clock, not the popular social media app)

Imagine if the guy filming the corner (and our advert on the big screen) stopped recording 3 seconds before York City Football Club fired in one of the greatest goals of this century 🤪

Well it’s happened again. This time it’s the bakery.

I mentioned in a post t’other day about how sometimes you walk in and the team present something amazing.

The bakers have gone fully rogue and decided to try their hand at something fancy.

Fondant fancies. Or French fancies? We simply cannot know.

They turned out some little banana, white chocolate and raspberry cakes and also some millionaire-inspired slices which are equally as banging.

Available in Haxby and Easingwold til they’re gone.

What should the bakers surprise us with next?

We occasionally do pop-ups at our stores, and our Clifton store will be no different. Our next pop-up: Indian street food - is one week away.

LFK by Jenny & Sanket | York Dining will be taking over our coffee shops, blending bold global flavours with authentic Indian techniques, crafting dishes that break boundaries and spark curiosity.

If you’ve been thinking of securing tickets now is the time.

There’s a few remaining for both evenings. £40 a ticket & two sittings per evening. There’s a link to purchase tickets in our bio… we don’t know how much longer these will be available for, so be quick.

My Granny used to say (in a broad Glaswegian accent) “if you doon’t eat yer porridge, yoou’ll be coold all day”.

I never really understood why she did the accent. She was from Bishop Wilton just outiside York.

Anywho, chilly mornings are back in business and on trend.

I’ve seen people posting pictures of their homemade soup, big wooly jumpers, freshly baked bread, and I even saw mince pies in Lidl. Too far Lidl GB. Too far.

If you’ve got a big day ahead or you’re in the mood for a hearty breakfast, we’ve got you sorted beyond belief.

The Curious Breakfast Stack: Tomato relish, spinach, a slice of salted tomato (always salt your tomatoes), smashed avocado, crispy bacon, pork sausage, fried egg, all served in a freshly baked soft white bap.

Vegetarians, we see you - we have a vegetarian version where we’ve swapped the meat for generous slices of fried golden halloumi.

Both of these will slap the steam off a bowl of soup any day of the week.

Available in Haxby and Easingwold for dine in only (they are simply too massive to fit in any form of packaging). Use our app to order - if it’s your first time using the app, you can nab a free brownie.

Dinnae forget yer napkins.

There’s nothing like it. The absolute joy and sheer good luck, of having an amazing team.

Some days you arrive at store and you’re presented with something new. Absolutely spectacular. A genuine surprise.

Sticky Toffee Pudding French Toast:
- an obscenely thick slice of Frenchly toasted Brioche
- ⁠toffee sauce
- ⁠chopped dates
- ⁠chewy toffee pieces
- ⁠vanilla marscapone

Banana Maple Pecan French Toast
- more of the same Frenchly toasted Brioche
- sliced banana
- maple syrup
- toasted pecans
- vanilla whipped cream

It feels like Christmas morning and you’ve unwrapped the gift you had no idea you wanted.

I’d love to take credit for these masterpiece but yet again, it was all our wonderful team at Curious.

And they didn’t stop there…

“Hey Eddie what about this?”

A seared flat iron steak sandwich served on freshly baked Bakeri Baltzersen focaccia, caramelised onions, wild rocket and a creamy mustard mayo. Oh and a bowl of our world famous truffle fries.

This thing is a complete masterpiece. We’re still working out costings & figuring out our bread order so if you wanna see this one on the menu, you’re gonna have to comment STEAK PLEASE EDDIE! If we get enough comments, it’ll go on the menu.

The good news is our Sticky Toffee Pudding French Toast is available from today (Monday 7th Sept) in Haxby and our Banana Maple Pecan is also in Easingwold from today.

They’ll both run for a few weeks so the best time to get them is now. The second best time is before we take them off the menu.

They both pair beautifully with a fresh Curious Coffee latte. Just remember to tag us in your stories & pics.

Well done team.

Bonjour & au revoir for now 🇫🇷 🍞

If you haven’t tried our Eton Mess French toast yet, this week might be your last chance.

An outrageously thicc slice of freshly baked brioche gets the French toast treatment, served with locally grown strawberries, topped with whipped British double cream, finished with crumbled meringue.

Our French toast special changes every 4-5 weeks and we’ve got some autumn inspired bangers in the works (toffee nut latte french toast anyone?).

We still can’t work out if it’s brunch, or dessert, or the type of dessert which is only allowed immediately after you’ve had your brunch.

Regardless, it’s absolutely delicious and only available for a few more days.

And for the grown ups, we still have all our usual scoffable options like eggs Benny or our berry granola pot.

Available in Easingwold & Haxby til 4pm.

Welcome to all our new followers and thank you for all the lovely messages with our new store announcement yesterday 🥺🫶

Seems like most of you are familiar with Curious Coffee but for those who’ve only just heard, here’s a little recap. We serve delicious fresh brunch & exceptional coffee, all day, everyday.

We bake our own brownies so they’re available fresh in store every single day (check out The Curious Brownie Company if you want them posted to you) and there’s a bunch of other mouthwatering stuff on our menu (link in bio) and pretty much all of it can be ordered for collection through our app (link also in bio).

We opened our first shop in Easingwold in 2013, followed by Haxby a few years later. We occasionally do pizza evenings or popup/collabs, like the upcoming world class Indian street food event with LFK by Jenny & Sanket | York Dining (there’s a post on our grid with all the details of how to book tickets).

Not only are we building a new shop, we’re building our incredible team.

We’re recruiting all levels:
* Front of house and back of house colleagues
* Senior staff inc. supervisors and managers
* Also happy to hear from you if you’d prefer to stick with one role i.e. just front of house, or just back of house or coffee…

Full training given across front of house, back of house and coffee - training will take place at either our Haxby or Easingwold stores. Full time and part time roles available.

Our stores are open 7 days, and our new Clifton store will likely open a little later into the evening, so shifts may cover early morning til late evening.

What you get:
* Free food on shift
* Staff discount
* Pension and tips
* Join a growing, independent, family run business
* Laughs, bants and top tier puns provided while on shift

📧 Email your CV, tell Eddie what makes you tick and give us idea of which role you’re looking for/what level of experience you have, to [email protected]

(and it is just dot co - not .co.uk or .com)

More to follow. Stay Curious.

Word is out. It’s true. We can’t keep a lid on it any longer. We’re opening our third Curious Coffee Shop in Clifton, York.

We’re excited to grow the business, create new local jobs & bring a taste of Curious Coffee (and our brownies) one step closer to the City of York (some say it’s more of a large town). We’ve got some big plans & ideas for events, but first, we need to transform the space.

Like our other stores, Clifton will be open 7 days a week, serving delicious brunch all day long, hot & cold freshly crafted sandwiches, our fresh fries, french toast, our very own Curious Brownies (handmade at our production bakery near Easingwold) and our own Curious Coffee, as well as all your favourite drinks including smoothies & milkshakes.

We’ve mentioned in a few posts recently that we’re asking our Easingwold followers to follow as this will become our single page for all our stores (including Clifton). If you haven’t already, don’t get left behind, follow now 🫶

There’ll be a lot of posts today about how exam results don’t matter and it’s what you do next that counts…

The world’s pretty mad right now, and it doesn’t look like it’s slowing down any time soon.

My honest advice for this new world we’re all living in: find the thing that brings you meaning.

Happiness isn’t a destination, and it’s not something you just decide to feel. It tends to come from doing a thing, that truly means something to you.

When I left school, I ended up working in cafés and restaurants. For a lot of people that type of work is just a stepping stone to the next chapter - for me, it’s where I found real meaning.

The buzz of service coming together, the kitchen nailing its checks, thrilled customers turning into regulars, smashing our targets, balancing stock ordered against sell-through, trying new things on the menu, developing a solid reputation and becoming a 5 star venue.

If 16 year old me could see where we ended up, I reckon they’d be impressed - and pretty excited too.

So whatever brings you meaning - baking, writing, cooking, photography, making content, working with your hands, building things, fixing stuff, sport, performing, numbers, helping people, working in hospitality, whatever it is - if it brings you deep satisfaction and meaning, go after it every single day.

And while I’m on a bit of a rant, let’s talk about failure. Failure is a seriously important part of becoming an expert on the thing you love. You tend to learn 10x more from failing, than you do from getting it right first time. So welcome failure in whenever it shows up.

Some people live their entire lives without finding meaning, or without pursuing the thing they’d secretly love to do.

So whether today’s results feel like an absolute triumph or a complete disaster, find the thing which brings you meaning and don’t be scared to look failure in the eye. Everything will work out.
