just recently finding out i had food intolerances to wheat and dairy, finding somewhere where i could eat out became a bit of a chore for me. but alas, there was lucky number three... with a wide choice of wheat free and gluten free breads, extremely delish cakes, and even soya milk lattes, this place is heaven!!
It's well worth the trip from Scotland - came across it by chance but I'll be back!!!
The highlight of my English holiday!
Great everything, highly recommended!
Lovely people, great food and all ethical too! Well worth a visit.
It could almost convince me to become a vegetarian as they do the most amazing veggi sausage sandwich I have ever tasted. A must for the usually hard to obtain ingredients as well It's a regular stop for me on my way to work
lovely welcoming staff, wonderful food and a delightful atmosphere. Couldn't be a nicer place to stop off for coffee and cakes... wish there were more like it.... keep up the good work the team who work at magic no 3....
Well the food is careefully chosen by the owners and so the staff have a great knowledge of the food they are selling. Combine that with the friendly approachable staff and you have a great little place to get yourself a coffee or a sandwich. it's a must visit if you are visitiing saltaire.
the perfect place to spend a wet afternoon, glowing with freindliness along with great coffee and wonderfully morish wholesome foods.
Everything about this place is just delicious...the chocolate, the cakes, the salads, the snacks, the staff...
this a place for friends. it is the hub of the community: a place to meet, discuss and participate. it is what a local shop should be all about: warm, inviting and personal. i love this shop.
Guilt-free pleasures! Magic Number Three is simply the best store in Saltaire. Not only is it in a great location it has amazing produce and the best cakes. It's such a wonderful little place - the only problem with it is I always end up buying more than I should as everything is just too yummy :O)
This has to be one of my favorite shops in Saltaire, i can't resist going in every time i pass for one of their delicious cakes and a sneaky look around the art which is one of the things that makes this place so special, along with the constantly welcoming staff.
One of the most attractive and appealing food shops in Saltaire, offering organic and fair trade merchandise with friendly and knowledgeabe staff. A definite hero on my list.
I would highly recommend this delicatessen/cafe/organic food shop - it has a chilled out vibe to it. The friendly staff, top notch coffee and locally sourced organic food products make it one of Saltaire's top attractions.
A warm, welcoming atmosphere and the most delicious food.
Interesting food and support for local producers and artists
So nice, I want to stay all day - specially as I keep meeting firends at the counter! We all love the frangipanni with summer fruits
The magic of Number 3? Wholesome scrumptous nosh; cheerful faces of the staff and customers who can't keep away! 3 more things that make this place so special? Locally produced food; Fairtrade and ethical trading.
In a world of cold cut thoat consumerism this shop provides a ray of light, consistently rising the hope that moralist businesses can still exist. Where a fair price means both for the producer and the consumer. What a refreshing difference, where food is grabbing to be the best it can be and where attention to detail is number 1.
Warm and cheery welcome; THE BEST coffee; tempting snacks and delicious cakes - doodle pads on the tables - not just for kids! it has a buzz - people who haven't met might strike up a conversation ... soothing and stimulating at the same time.
Magic Number Three is REALLY Magic Number One when it comes to both their original and interesting and healthy food and also to the really friendly service you get there. Highly recommended
Friendly staff, great coffee, pleasing to the eye and a genuine sense of comfort and affability, Magic No Three is the reason I'm late for work most mornings!
Great place for an early morning snack
An ever-changing display of fairly traded food and crafts, friendly ownership and the buzz that comes from experiencing good food, art and conversation all at the same time.
Whenever we visit Saltaire, we ALWAYS call in here at Magic Number Three not only to sample the wonderful tempting home made food, but also because of the genuinely warm welcome we receive from the people who run it. Sorry we do not actually live in Saltaire(we live in Norway!) so that we could call in there every day.
Creamy cappucino with cinnamon, rocket-topped peppery humous & carrot salad on foccacia, impossible choices of locally baked cakes - but the spiced bread & butter pudding beats them all - and all served with smiles!
Stylishly set out merchandise with relaxed, friendly & knowledgeable staff. You can enjoy delicious cakes and coffee which don't have any nasties in them! The shop does a great job at promoting local produce too.
It is just lovely - massive wholesome sarnies, slabs of tasty treats and very happy faces.
We aim for our sandwiches, cakes and deli salads always to be scrummy. We do get lots of smiles each day and our customers make it a great place to work
Great coffees, cakes and fresh organic bread - and friendly staff.
Great place for a variety of locally sourced produce (e.g. honey made by bees living locally, using flowers growing in the valley), as well as good coffee (organic, free-trade etc.) and the people there really are just totally jolly!
I stop here for a coffee and sandwiches to go when I'm catching the train at Saltaire. The sandwiches are scrumptious and moist - vegetarian and full of interesting ingredients you'd never think would go together but do. Their cakes are delicious too, my favourite is the raspberry and coconut bar. The whole shop is full of interesting foods and crafts too. There is seating if you fancy eating in and shopping with your eyes while taking in the tantalising aromas. On the way home from work you can pick up olives, pesto and cheeses for a quick evening meal - and more cake of course. Visit them when you visit Saltaire - you will not be disappointed - the magic is compelling.
It's just a wonderful place for finding new things and trying them. Everyone is very friendly and helpful, and the food is just delicious and all of the best quality.
Easily my favourite bit of a trip to Saltaire, lovely food, friendly staff and excellent fairtrade and organic-ness. Keep up the good work Magics!
Excellent food, great coffee, and the best service - the owner (F.S) is really cute too :) Well done - it gets my vote.
The go-to place for interesting stuff, and the food is divine. The nicest place in terms of service and atmosphere. The only place I go to in Saltaire.
You can get the best skinny cap before dashing off to catch a train next door - and it is also a delightful, tranquil place to take a well-earned break with a coffee and delicious organic cake and read the paper. They also do the best sandwiches for miles.
My mummy works here. I love coming to eat raspberry and coconut cake and drink juicy juice and say Hiya to everyone. You will see me at the weekends. I also like woofs and moos.
Magic number three is the coolest, most wonderful place in the world with the best staff, food, coffee, drinks and everything else.
Fantastic organic food and coffee - very friendly and polite staff - great music and some great hampers for Christmas presents. A great addition to the local Saltaire community
Great shepherdless pie and proper cheese and onion pasties - where you can actually recognise the ingredients! Helpful and friendly staff. An asset to our village.
Everything: the fab decoration, the friendly staff, the amazing range of pressents to choose from (fairtade and/or by local artists), the mouthwatering food (organic and/or fairtrade as well) and not less imporatnt the tasty coffee...what else can you ask for?
A fabulous place serving the best coffee I've ever tasted. The organic wheat free cakes are absolutely delicious and the ever increasing range of lentils/artichokes/olives are mouth wateringly fantastic. The artwork by local artists is superb - a definite must for anyone visiting Saltaire. The staff make your visit memorable and always are very helpful, cheerful and friendly.
Amazing place, love everything I've ever had from there!! The raspberry coconut things are to die for!! Keeps me going on the beat!!
Well what can I say, the owner of this wonderful establishment used to be my boss. A lovely kind and caring person who will always make sure the customers receive a special service. Great location, great food, great gifts and a special place to visit whilst visiting the tourist attractions in Saltaire. Good Luck my friend Love She & Mand x
Really great for organic food, the best coffee in town and out-of-the-ordinary gifts for that special person. Exceptionally friendly, helpful staff - this is a real hub of the community.
Love, love, love it!!
Excellent friendly service. It's just the best place to go get your lunch from in Saltaire. I've tried all the others but keep going back to Magic Number 3 and think i will stick with it. Good Luck.
Excellent friendly service, good local bread and baked goods, fair trade products, good sandwiches and coffee - to eat in or take out!
Great location to grab a coffee before getting on the train, not to mention a nice box of olives on the way home!
Very friendly staff and very nice organic and/or fairtrade food. Also some nice artwork for sale. It's even better now they have a seated area.
Really nice selection of takeaway stuff, as well as cupboard staples - all organic, fair trade or locally sourced. Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff if you want to stop in for a coffee and a cake to while away the afternoon. Also stocks work by local artists.
Forget the rest of the village - the mill, the rows of listed cottages, the pubs, restaurants, and parks - Magic Number 3 is the only reason needed to visit Saltaire. This is one of the finest small food retailers in the country, run with passion for quality fresh organic food. It's also a lovely place to while away some time during the day.
This shop is also a small tea room. Every day they make their own fresh sarnies and salads which are gorgeous. I can't resist going in whenever I'm in Saltaire. They also sell lots of organic, fairtrade, gluten-free and other specialist food to buy.
