    We stopped by this tea room today and had a fabulous afternoon tea. We ordered the scones and cake, all of which was delicious. The chocolate orange cake is to die for. Lovely quaint old building and the staff are very friendly. One of the best tea rooms we have been to. We will be back.

    Treated myself and my daughter for afternoon tea and came across this very quaint beautiful old English tea room. The lady that tendered to us was very friendly and professional food arrived quickly and of very high standard. Being a cake baker myself the cakes were just perfect especially the beetroot and chocolate and the lemon drizzle cake. I wanted to buy more to take away but sadly it was all selling very fast so I couldn’t. We had afternoon tea for two with a selection of sandwiches followed by scones and then choice of cake with a selection of tea to choose from. Would definitely recommend this tea room but I feel in the warmer days this would get very busy indeed but plenty out outside seating
