Cassandra's Cup - Table reservation

I visited Cassandra 's Cup today on my own, ordering a Bacon, Brie and Cranberry Panini and a coffee (total spend was £11.15), and taking my coffee to my table with me. By the time my panini arrived 20 minutes later, I had finished my coffee. The cafe wasn 't busy 3 other tables were accupied with 2, 3 and another 2 people, and my order was not placed last, but still took 20 minutes to arrive and was 'warm ' rather than 'hot '. As I was already short of time by then, I didn 't stop to talk to a member of Staff about my expereince. I 'm returning to Chawton in two days but, other than the pub, which I believe is linked to Cassandra 's Cup, I don 't believe there is any other cafe/tea room in...

Visited this teashop on Sunday. The people serving were very welcoming and were happy to show me that they had a gluten free cake and a variety of lactose free milk for my coffee. I have given 4 stars as slice of cake could have been a bit bigger. Will visit again.

It has a nice atmosphere and the staff are very friendly and helpful. It has a small menu but the food is good and at a reasonable price. A nice place to stop for a sandwich and a cuppa after a visit to Jane Austen’s house.

Visited on arrival in Chawton ahead of “doing” Jane Austen stuff. Good sized tasty coffee in a quirky space (tea cups hanging from the ceiling). My only issue would be very slow service.
