We called for coffee this afternoon was appalled at the miserable dark haired waitress that served us. I was kept waiting nearly 5 minutes before being served, in this time she was stood tending to the coffee machines??? She did say begrudgingly, after what seemed a very long time, that she would be with me shortly with no smile no interest shown. I was then served waited again more than 5 minutes for the coffee. When it did arrive she handed the tray over saying one latte one cappuccino, no smile no thank you. I was mortified by the long abysmally poor service. We did notice other customers waiting a long time to be served one lady had to shout for service. Come on Winter Gardens, this is n...
I visited this restaurant twice for lunch while attending an event at the Winter Gardens. The sandwich I ordered was small and soggy for £3.00, which I felt was overpriced. However, the soup I had for £3.50 was delicious and came with a small bread roll and butter. The coffee was decent, and the cakes looked great although I did not try them. The staff were friendly but appeared disorganized, leading to long wait times for coffee and inconsistent portion sizes. One soup was full while another was only half the size. A 500ml bottle of water cost £2.50, and all food and drinks were served on disposable paper plates, cups, and cutlery, which seemed unusual for a cafe that markets itself as a hi...
This place only does sandwiches, soup and cakes. They have six sandwiches on the menu We arrived at 1 o’clock to find they only had three left!!! I had a tuna mayo sandwich. It was okay but it could have done with more salad inside. Also the only crips available were Pringles ready salted. My companion had the soup of the day. It was meant to be served with a bread roll and butter. It came with a bread roll however there was no butter. Eventually the butter arrived 20 minutes later from another part of the building, after we had finished our meal!!! The soup was beef and tomato. It tasted like leftover Bolognese sauce!!! There are plenty of other cafes next door to the Winter gardens go ther...
3 out of 10 ....lovely relaxing surroundings for a coffee and cake /toastie etc and is fresh and airy and shows the history of the building from its early beginnings decades ago. Prices are a wee bit on the dearer side as expected...but I was disappointed when I got my coffee and found my spoon was filthy or hadn't been cleaned or whatever....and there was no way I was going to stir my coffee with that! Luckily I used a disposable wooden stirrer but I was surprised that the high standards of this cafe seem to be slipping...I hope it was a one off!

Treated my mum to sparkling afternoon tea here while visiting from Wales. Beforehand the Winter Gardens put me in touch with Anusha at the cafe because I wanted to make it a little special for her as she was 60. I only expected a little candle stuck in her scone or something but Anusha arranged banners on the table, balloons and was really attentive when we arrived, taking photographs for us. The tea itself was delightful, just the right amount! What a lovely day, it really made our trip. Thanks Anusha and team.
I went to this restaurant on a Thursday afternoon in October and had coffee and cake. The lattes were quite milky and the cake slices were big, but the cream icing was too sweet. The highlight of the meal was the bottle of cola. However, the live singer from the neighboring room was a bit too loud. The main reason to visit this place is the decor, which is fabulous with many interesting things to see while enjoying your drink. Overall, it was a bit disappointing, but the Winter Gardens nearby are fantastic.
I went for lunch with my wife and daughter. I decided to order a bowl of soup, but I was very disappointed. The soup arrived cold and when I returned it, I was told that someone had turned off the urn and fresh soup would be brought out when it was warm. However, when the soup was finally served, it was only tepid. The server even told me to enjoy it now that it was warm, but it was still not very satisfying.
Visited here begging of February for sparkling afternoon tea with my partner . On arrival was greet with a smile and shown to our table, lovely relaxed atmosphere and the staff was friendly and couldn’t do enough for you , sandwich’s and mini cakes was lovely and the scones come with jam and clotted cream .. would highly recommend and great value for £19 each .would definitely visit again if in Blackpool !

My friend and I popped in there on the off chance for lunch before we headed home on the train. Fortunately it was quite quiet when we went. The café sells typical fare such as sandwiches, soups, cakes etc. However, the surroundings are very pretty indeed.
We had lunch here and were well satisfied with the food price and service in spacious pleasant surroundings
