What a joy it was to discover this cafe and shop! The hosts were extremely friendly, making us feel very welcome. There were lovely goodies to take the eye in all three areas that make up Ye Olde Steppes. Goodies to eat, goodies to wear and a great variety of goodies to drink. We had popped in to get takeaway drinks on readiness to get the bus back to Eardisland after a long walk. We were persuaded to take a seat to enjoy our refreshments in comfort with the promise of a lift back to Eardisland afterwards. The coffee and hot chocolate were very good and we had ample time to look at everything else that was on offer. We eventually left with some of the eating goodies and a bottle of very deli...
If you find yourself in the vicinity of the delightful, black and white Herefordshire village of Pembridge, I urge you to stop for refreshments at the Olde Steppes shop/cafe. Genuinely welcoming and hospitable, flavoursome coffee, a mini emporium of locally sourced produce and good old- fashioned conversation. Once over the threshold you are acknowledged with a smile and made to feel valued as a customer. Places like this are central to village life and wider, rural communities. Long may the Olde Steppes continue to provide a place for people to connect, converse and consume! Thank you.
We stayed in the holiday cottage behind Ye Olde Steppes last week. It was a joy to pop in (most days! and pick up locally sourced produce. We were always met with a smile and a really warm welcome. A shop that is well and truly the heart of the village. It made our stay so much more enjoyable. I can't comment on the tea room as it wasn't open, but had it been we would definitley have taken advantage. Thank you!
We cycled over 10 miles to visit this entity which apparently has not been a tea room for over 3 years. It is still showing on the Herefordshire publicity material and cycle guides as a tea room. The photographs on Trip Advisor are also very misleading. There are currently no tea rooms in Pembridge.

Dropped in on my way back from visiting the church to have a browse for a couple of items. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly even though I’d never set foot Inside this shop before. Plenty of locally produced gin, cider and beer for sale. A very pleasant experience today.
This is one of those shops with so much character that it becomes more of an experience than just buying something. Sells a wide range of quality produce and the owners are very friendly. Definitely worth popping in if you are visiting Pembridge.
A wonderful shop with very friendly and welcoming owners. Very helpful and knowledgeable of the local area. Called every day for our morning coffees. Would definitely recommend and will call again when in the area.
What a quaint and lovely shop. Bigger than you think. Super friendly people and lots of choice. The cheese and chutney selection we could not resist having just had some of both at the local pub.

This is no longer a tea room but still an excellent shop! They mentioned it on their Facebook page but I didn't see it until after I visited at the start of July.
The food is fab, the staff are extremely attentive and always remember you when you return. This is how tea shops/cafes should be. An absolute gem.
