I organised an afternoon tea for a birthday gift and it was amazing the best afternoon tea I have every had. Instead of boring finger sandwiches, we had a toasted sandwich, pastry and a quiche, followed by savoury and sweet scones with homemade jam, followed by homemade cakes. I think we had a little more of the sandwiches/pastries than usual due to one of us being vegetarian but even sharing them would have been plenty. It was incredible well worth the money. The staff were polite and friendly and even dealt with some rude and entitled customers that expected people who were already seated to move for them very well! This is a great little spot and is dog friendly which is even better for u...
First visit here after passing by for many years as it always looks so busy, however we didn’t realise it opened up at the back and we were lucky enough to be seated on the lovely cosy sofas upstairs. The staff were really friendly and attentive. Three of us had the cheese scones which they warmed for us and I’m not exaggerating when I say they were the best cheese scones any of us had had.

I have visiting for quite a few years and have recommended it to many friends over the years. I also live around the corner so it’s on my doorstep.

I have actually never even see her smile let alone the very rude and abrupt way you are seated and served. After chatting to a friend she actually shared a very similar story and said never again. So unfortunately I feel I will be only buying cakes (which are excellent) to take away from now and using the many other cafes in the village if I want to enjoy foo...
The food was delicious, especially the cakes. I would give this restaurant 4 stars, but I observed a staff member inspecting the cakes while eating. It was not ideal to see her touching the cakes with the same hand she was putting food in her mouth with. Remember to wash your hands before handling the cakes. Aside from this issue, my overall visit was great.
