The Joyful Deli rises from the ashes

An Addingham café destroyed by fire last June has showed off how its amazing new interior will look.

Owner Jilly Pittendreigh had been celebrating her birthday when she was woken by noises and discovered a blaze in the early hours of Monday 9th June 2025.

Fire crews reported that morning being called to reports of a barn fire on Ilkley Road, saying:

"A farm building 100% involved in flames which crews used large jets to extinguish".

Jilly and husband Mike, along with their two boys, horses, and dogs, live on-site, and thankfully were all safe.

The clear up started straight away and within days of the fire, the team were back open offering 'al fresco dining' on the terrace and on the paddock.

Jump forward seven months and Jilly has posted on The Joyful Deli Facebook page:

"The fire disaster back in June, and then this will be the taste of something amazing to come very soon.

"Love to you all and a massive thankyou for your ongoing support."

The venue is dog friendly, offering seating inside and out and is open Monday and Wednesday to Sunday, from breakfast to evening dinner.

The team are hoping to have the new inside space open by Easter.
