Excellent and inventive range, local ingredients, garden outside for the sunny days, with plenty of room for bikes - only drawback is the slices of cake are hyooooge, and could make riding home after more of a challenge.
2 stops for me.
Velolife - though they get a 1/2 point downgrade for no piggy products, some days only a bacon sarnie will do ymmv.

Waterfront Cafe at Benson Oxon. Influenced by their amazing "just come off a pig" bacon sarnies.

We should have another poll to see if I'm a cakey heretic or bacon (or sausage) sarnies are allowed under "the rules".
Probably any of the entries listed here but the first two, Cafe Velo in Beverley (mainly sausage and mushroom sandwich, banoffee pie & Blending Room coffee) and Fiddle Drill in Goodmanham, East Yorkshire (runny yoke scotch egg and range of homemade cakes) are particularly worthy of note. More info here:

Neither are great on the Internet, but fortunately they'll make up for it with their grub when they're fully open again.
