A Time To Remember Vintage Tearooms in South Holland

We found Silverwood Tea Rooms/Shop by accident which visiting family in the area.We only had a snack lunch, but the food was nice and well presented.Much more interesting is the shop. A real Aladdin's Cave of things, almost like a kind of small department store in times past, really you name it, and they probably have it !Friendly, helpful staff/owner.

The tearoom has been freshly decorated to nice light colours making it feel alot brighter. Lots of outside seating available, including a marquee and arbours as well as 'normal' table and chairs. I enjoyed scrambled egg with 1 toast on the side instead of 2 (personal preference) very accommodating and friendly staff.

This place is a great place to stop and eat or just have a wander through the array of independent shops and stalls. Lots of choice with the menu in the tearoom and it is a quirky place with lots of memorabilia from the 1940's. We had the toasties and they were very generous servings. Friendly ladies serving with the Covid protocols being adhered to very well. Loved it

Returning from holiday in Norfolk we were looking for a proper independent cafe for brunch, and we saw the sign for this place. What an amazing find. The tearoom is completely immersed in the 1940s, from the decor and the softly-playing music to the furniture and all the artifacts. If you have children studying the WWII period, bring them here: they will be fascinated by the contrast between life then and now. Fortunately, however, the theme does not extend to the menu! My husband ordered a bacon sandwich and I chose a cheese toastie. Mine came with a 'salad garnish' which contained more salad than most full meals in a restaurant. The toastie must have contained several weeks' ration of cheese. Husband's sandwich was likewise bulging. China cups; husband had a pot of tea, while I had a cafetiere of coffee. Proper coffee, not the chicory stuff they drank during WWII when coffee wasn't available. Couldn't believe what good value it was. The staff were lovely, and their Covid security was excellent. We were asked if we would like to take our items off the tray rather than have them handled by the waitress. As well as the Tearooms, there are some very quirky little shops within the building, including a unit selling 'fat quarters' of beautiful cotton fabrics for those of us into quilting, patchwork or, as in my case, making fun face coverings. Worth a detour.

Closed down but transformed into Yesterday's Tearooms. Lovely home made food in a vintage setting. A must seek out place. Prices average but not over the top. Friendly staff, good service, owner wears 1940's and 50's clothes, very atmospheric.Good for meeting friends, families or for business meetings.

Stopped in for an all day breakfast, food was of good quality and cooked to perfection, staff were all very nice

Great food, very clean, welcoming and efficient staff. Some nice units selling goods to look around when you have finished eating or before you eat. Cakes are lovely, great pot of tea and china teacups.

My wife and I discovered this lovely tearoom whilst travelling home having spent a few days holiday in Great Yarmouth. The tea rooms are inside a garden centre with plants handmade items and antiques on offer. A great choice of homemade food. On this occasion we had coffee,tea,ice cream and cake. We were served by friendly welcoming staff. we certainly enjoyed the atmosphere.We have decided whenever we are passing this is the place for food and drinks. I would strongly recommend a visit

Great service..quirky tea room that offers gluten free options. They could not have been more helpful

Always call in at these quaint tea rooms on our journey home from the Norfolk countryside. They are still the best, never fail with their huge slices of cake (always several to choose from). Good hot tea served the old fashioned way. Also the old music playing in the background is a great way to set the tone. Excellent service and value for money. See you again soon.

A friend and I met for a 'quick lunch' at 12:30. At 3 p.m. we left. Says it all. We both had the pork and apple sauce baguette, which was delicious and came with gravy in a tea cup for pouring/ dunking. We thought we were full, but found room for excellent cake: coffee and walnut and lime and coconut. An enormous pot of tea. With tea leaves. A real find.

my daughter brought me a voucher for a cream tea that i wanted to take my friend for her birthday . i know it was my fault for not paying attention to expiry date but the voucher was only for 3 months when i rang to book and realised it was just over a month passed . i feel that’s it a shame they wouldn’t honour it as i would have brought some cakes whilst i was there to bring home and will never go there again or recommend as there was no good will from owners behalf . they have my daughters money so really can’t see why i couldn’t have it . maybe i’mlooking at the situation wrongly ?

We were made welcome upon arrival, and the tearoom was absolutely charming ...Having kept the waitress waiting (we were chatting to much ... Sorry )... We ordered our food..My friend had a jacket potato with mushrooms and Stilton sauce.. And I had a breakfast ( I know.. not very adventurous )...Both came very well presented.. And we both thoroughly enjoyed our meals.. (Although I did order a cream scone for dessert ... Which was delicious and very filling .. .)This tearoom is a definite 'must' to visit.. And with the plants, handmade items, and antiques on offer, it's a great place to spend an afternoon xThank you to my friend, and the staff for a most pleasant afternoon x

This is a lovely tearoom with friendly staff and the food is great. You have to try the blue cheese and walnut scones, excellent coffee

We stopped off for a cup of tea en route home after a day out in the area. We were welcomed and told to sit where we liked.

What a find, vintage tearoom just off the main road heading towards Norfolk. Scones were huge and warm with choice of jam. Tea served in bone china cups. Lovely ladies running it too. Enjoyed look around the antique and garden centre. Highly recommended.

We came for the cake, and was really truly impressed!! Bloomin lovely place!! Definitely recommend!!

The tea rooms are inside a garden centre which is great to have a look round and buy inexpensive gifts and plants.

Great little place, love the duke box, friendly staff and quality food. Stopped off on our way back from the coast.

I have been to this lovely cafe numerous times and have always had a lovely experience. Always been made to feel welcome and have always enjoyed my Afternoon Tea or meal.

I use Mals Tea rooms for lunches..evening meals and have been to 2 psychic suppers there. Nothing is too much trouble. The food is lovely. The tea shop is quirky and clean. Can not rate it highly enough. Also Mal is the real deal if you are into psychic readings. They cater for special diets if you give thrm 24hrs notice also xx

Decided to try this tea room, having seen the reviews and posts on Facebook, and wasn’t disappointed , with its quirky vintage style decor, the lush cakes on offer, and not forgetting the staff, with there warm welcome. Will be back soon to treat my mum and dad [ they will love it ]

Had a wonderful scrummy breakfast with my mum today. Couldn’t resist taking home some gorgeous homemade cakes as well. Lovely service, can’t wait to go again. Highly recommend.

Going to enjoy all that winstar has to offer yahoo I ready a break to go and relax. The view from the hotel room. The great restaurants to eat at and enjoy the atmosphere The many type of gaming to play and the pleasent staff at Winstar. I recommend if you never be to Winstar go and have a wonderful time and lots if fun.

Visited the Tea Rooma this afternoon, experienced a very warm welcome . Prior to visiting I informed them that I had a severe seafood allergy and when I arrived I was informed that prawns had been taken off the menu to be safe , the afternoon tea was lovely , home made scones and cakes , the sandwiches were made fresh while we waited and the tea was loose leaf , loved the decor too ❤️

Excellent food, service and atmosphere Try to visit whenever we can. Once discovered never forgotten!!

Friendly, quirky, well worth a visit. If the number of reserved tables is to go by a popular location for lunch. Lovely cheese scone.

Visited today for lunch. Food delicious, surroundings very funky and retro. Staff were very friendly and serve the best hot chocolate ever.

Visited with a friend for tea and cake but nothing really grabbed me. The cake i eventually chose was okay but not memorable. It was quiet there but has an overriding smell of chip fat so wouldn't bother with another visit.

Often pop in for a meal, today we decided to try the Afternoon Tea.

We were looking for lunch and found a sign on the A17 telling us about a tea room. When we arrived it wasn’t just that it was a whole collection of gift shops plus the tearoom all under the same roof. It is delightful and the food and staff terrific, the prices are very modest. I was disappointed they close at 4pm as I was keen to come back for an evening meal on the way back to Cambridge. Don’t stop at the McDonalds at the roundabout, keep on a very short distance to this charming place.

On our way back from Norfolk and just wanted a snack. Great find-within a shop which sells craft materials amongst other things and a garden centre as well as a vintage shed. Staff lovely, cakes and scones delicious and drinks lovely too and all reasonably priced. Go there!

By chance we pulled in as we drove past We where strangers to the area What a very pleasant find lovely staff very nice food If in the area you really should give it a go Also a little museum very interesting

Visited at the weekend for our first time, expecting something not overly good. We were so, so wrong. We ordered tea and cake and it was the best cake we've had in a very long time. Good value for money and lovely setting. Staff were very kind too.

Have been for morning coffee and cakes and afternoon tea. Lovely cake and latte and wonderful scones, cream and jam with tea. All in a traditional tea room setting served by attentive polite staff.

We called at the tearooms on Thursday for our 4th visit, good food at the right price, nice soft music in the back ground from the 1950/60`s. Well done to all the staff, and we look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Stopped here on our journey from Norfolk. It is conveniently place about half way back and has a large car park plus some ‘interesting’ stalls in the old garden centre.

Smashing quaint setting and lovely food. We always include a stop here on our outward ad. Return trips to Norfolk. Sensible prices too

We found this little place on the way home from a holiday up north so on the next holiday northbound we stopped in for lunch and as before, we were not disappointed. Lovely grub and a proper cup of tea in a china pot and cup.

We stopped in on the way home from Bay trees Nursery and had a coffee and Cake, the homemade cakes are wonderful, since then we have been back twice in 2 weeks for coffees and lunches.

Called in for a drink and ended up having dinner. Exellent the food was perfect you could not fault it. We will certainly be calling again.

Having been to all the local tea rooms we keep coming back to this one. The food and service is excellent and the staff are very welcoming. There is a wide range of delicious cakes all to help put on those few extra pounds. There is always a nice relaxed atmosphere. A visit is a must.

we visited on a Sunday and had afternoon tea.. everyone else was getting a roast dinner! We had coronation chicken sandwiches and tuna... very nice and well filled! it was alsl served with a side salad but in my opinion this was not needed. The scone was delicious and slightly warm. We also chose a cake to go with it. Nice place and loved the music on the jukebox... however this doesn't get a 5 stars because personally I think it's very over priced compared to mals tearoom in log Sutton which is £7.95 and here is £13.95 for the same quality and quantity!

My friend had tea and scones, I had peanut butter chocolate cake - both were absolutely scrumptious. The owner was a very nice lady, general ambience was good and a lot of things to look at an make you smile.

Lovely staff and fabulous food. Nothing too much trouble. Had a amazing salad bowl, and the tea was in proper China cups. Well worth a visit.

We visited the tearoom for my birthday and it was lovely. Food was fabulous. Everything made fresh and plenty of choice. The staff were lovely too, and it made my day. Good value for money too. Highly recommended.

I come here frequently with my mother ( who lives in an old people's home nearby) She loves the old-fashioned feel of the cafe, the china crockery, the sugar tongs, the embroidered tablecloths. I love the cakes! The surroundings are somewhat surprising-it seems to be in a converted greenhouse! But once inside you are carried back to a time when cakes came on plates and not wrapped in cellophane, when food is freshly made and not de-frosted and when the staff are polite and helpful, not surly and disinterested! Well done, a lovely place to visit and we will definitely be back!

Popped in today to book afternoon tea. Tempted by what we saw, we stopped for latte and cake. Very good service. Quality made Lattes and the Coffee & Walnut cake was as you would expect a great homemade cake to be, moist and delicious.

Just a little way off the road which has several tea rooms along it this is the Jewel in the crown. On our way to Lincoln from Norwich we saw the signs for this place and didn’t regret turning off at all. Firstly the decor a la 1940’s & 50’s film stars from Hepburn to Monroe to Brando is a treat along with jukebox and much more. Then there’s the cakes to tempt you on the way in. The food is fresh cooked. We ate well on the way out and had a hearty breakfast on the way back. Would we go again .

I had a cherry & walnut scone with my cream tea and thoroughly enjoyed it. My partner suffers from lactose intolerance and was able to have a tea cake with jam, and soya milk in his tea which was great. (If they did vegan or dairy free cake that would have been utterly fabulous, but I understand there may not be as much demand for that sort of cake.) the tea room is actually in the garden centre which was also good albeit quite warm inside being a greenhouse building. Fortunately the temperature in the tea room itself was cool.

Amazing great food,great service.couldnt fault anything will definately be going back.went with my parents partner and auntie they all loved it and want to go back when next visit.

Great place & awesome cakes. Highly recomend. Great value. We cycled there today & were well looked after. Will be back.

We visited this area on a day trip to view a puppy, having come from Essex we did not know the area. We came across these tea rooms and as we had lunch earlier only wanted a coffee, however once in there we could not resist the scones. Other people were eating and the food looked and smelt delightful. The place is certainly time gone by which is so nice, music playing which was very relaxing(Frank Sinatra). I recommend anyone to visit, the won’t be disappointed. We will be visiting in late April to collect our puppy, and we will certainly be having lunch in the tea rooms before we collect him. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

Was treated to afternoon tea by my daughter. Lovely little tea rooms that takes you back to a bygone era. Choice of sandwiches on beautiful soft bloomer bread. Choice of home made cakes. Scones with clotted cream and jam. Salad, crisps and either tea or coffee! Also boxes available to take home what you can’t manage to eat. Lovely staff and inviting environment. Also have alcoholic refreshments too! Loved it!

Just returned from our belated Valentine Afternoon Tea at A Time to Remember Tea Rooms. What a fantastic experience, superbly vintage ambience, top notch food and super friendly staff. Highly recommend an afternoon tea here, other patrons were having soup, sandwiches, baguettes, cake etc. It...

Visited with family as a birthday treat. Nostalgic surroundings made it ideal for a family occasion with three generations of the family gathering for afternoon tea. Food was not fussy but very good quality. I can recommend the chocolate cake with Baileys - definitely not for the under 18s!

excellent tea and cakes. very vintage feel to the tearoom. very friendly and efficient staff. happy to recommend this tearoom

Called in on the off chance on the way home from a weekend away.

A wonderful discovery. Easy to get to off the A17. Fantastic atmosphere with music you can't help sing along too. Friendly & helpful staff / owners. Tasty & freshly prepared food with a very varied menu. Take out cakes! Delicious!

After traveling for over 2 hours on our way home we hit upon the brown tourist sign to this little gem. The breakfast was delicious with the toast cooked to my liking. My husband loved the tea leaves as it reminded him of is childhood. The theme is definitely vintage with tea served in a china teapot. Took a plain scone for the journey home and it was bliss. Such a shame it isn't closer to home! Thanks for a great meal.

Just love this restaurant/coffee shop! Food is wonderful, everyone is so friendly, lovely atmosphere, been before, several times, definitely going back again!!!

We spent a couple of days in Norfolk. unfortunately, we stopped at a little Chef on the way...never again. On the way back, I noticed a brown sign directing us to the tea rooms. Wow. Wow and triple Wow. It was like stepping back in time. From the manic world of the roads, we stepped into an oasis of peace. We both play in a Vintage type band so we felt that we were at home. The menu was exciting, in fact i would have ordered everything. The coffee and tea was outstanding. But the food....perfection. In fact Gordon Ramsey would have been so impressed he would have put his name to it. I cannot recommend A Time to remember highly enough. This is how good it is. we are going to do an 180 mile round trip..just to eat there again.

Elegimos 60 aniversario de boda de nuestra familia de aquí y me alegro mucho de haberlo hecho. Había 20 en nuestro partido y los niños y adultos que era para todos los gustos, incluso para sin gluten. El servicio era increíble y el té de la tarde no podría haber sido mejor. No puedo agradecer lo suficiente. Xx

Esta es la segunda vez que mi marido y yo hemos estado aquí es simplemente precioso. En esta visita tuvimos merienda para 2 tanta variedad y muy generoso, ya que teníamos que tomar algunos de los artículos para el hogar.

While the food itself was actually very tasty, there were some factors that I felt overshadowed my experience. Upon entering, I was greeted to a massive wall that consisted of endless pictures of Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. While this is keeping up with the theme of vintage that the tearoom was so ever desperate to shove down my throat, it in fact took away from my experience, taking away the genuineness of what I believe a vintage restaurant should portray. Additionally we were greeted to a not very vintage dukebox that also decided to have an off day, with the music cutting out regularly, furthermore the use of fans at either side of the room, one in fact in the doorway making it difficult for guests to get through drowned out the music that was playing. What puzzled me the most was the teacups hanging on the coat hooks, perhaps this was a factor of the vintage lifestyle, however this rendered the coat-hangers unusable.

Visité el salón contiguo y tienda de artesanía ayer. Ambos eran absolutamente encantador! El té tiene un ambiente encantador y la habitación de la memoria", aunque lane cerrado, era fascinante para echar un vistazo. Elegí la salchichas y mostaza mash y mi amigo eligió la ensalada de piña y sobresaliente con una taza de té para dos personas. La ensalada estaba muy bien presentado; sirve en un tazón pequeño con platos vintage preciosa parte de ensalada de patatas y col. Mi salchichas y mostaza puré venía con patatas asadas, zanahorias y coliflor - cocinado a la perfección. También tuvimos dos rebanadas de pastel de flan - tuve la tarta de naranja, mi amigo tenía café y nogal. Ambos eran claros y sabroso. Teniendo en cuenta la calidad de la comida, estaba muy bien de precio, excelente relación calidad-precio. Nos encantó, sin duda volveremos.

This was our first visit but it will not be our last. Excellant food and prompt service. Polite staff and a lovely nostalgic atmosphere.

We called in unannounced on a busy Saturday lunchtime (yesterday). Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, and we were seated and served very quickly. The menu includes snacks - paninis, soup, toasties, sandwiches etc. - which was just what we wanted as we were just having a quick journey break. Only about half a mile off the A17, this was another great find thanks to Tripadvisor. Personally speaking, this writer's only regret was that he didn't spot the lovely looking cakes until we left. Ah well, we'll have to call again on the way home next weekend. What a shame!

Lovely vintage themed tearoom with nice staff. Delicious cakes and Scones lovely too. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit

My mum and I have Ben coming here for years...,the atmosphere is lovely, efficient and friendly service but most of all delicious home-made cakes. We can always bring friends here knowing the scones and cakes will delight!

Fabulous tearoom great choice of homemade food and great scones with clotted cream (a rarity to find). Got 167 miles of driving to get home n this place has made the trip easier

Went to this lovely tea room today with family for my birthday.. wow what a find... fabulous..Martin and the lovely ladies were very attentive. And the afternoon tea was delicious, bought a box of cake home as you just can't eat it all..... In a nutshell good food, nice surroundings, lovely staff.... keep doing what your doing x

Stopped here on the way over to Norfolk wanted a coffee and somethingWe chose a scone to go with our coffee. These came quickly. The scone were warm and delicious. The coffee, a cafeteria which we had so we have the coffee as strong as we wished, was hot but a bit weak. Service was efficient and friendly.

I have just reviewed this under the Silverwood Tea Rooms heading, but this is the same place although this is the correct name of the Tea Room so I am repeating my review here! PS pretty sure the reviews for Silverhill Restaurant are the same place too!Had day out with a friend trawling a selection of garden centres and plant nurseries in the area. Based on the reviews we had pre-chosen Silverwood Garden Centre (A Time to Remember Tearooms) for our lunch. We were not disappointed: the food was excellent, very reasonably priced, and the staff friendly (we felt like 'regulars' on our first visit). Friend said her coffee was one of the best she has had (praise indeed!), I had Earl Grey tea - loose leaf, served in a pot with bone china cup and a tea strainer provided. The decor made the place feel cosy and comfortable. The nostalgia element didn't seem overdone or intrusive, just retro. We do not live that close by, but would definitely return when we can. Had a look round the craft and antiques area and there was some lovely stuff plus definite bargains to be had. Other places may have a better plant selection (and this wasn't bad) but this was tops for the food and service.

Yes it was a time to remember we were on a weekend break from Southampton and were told by the locals in Lincolnshire about this venue and advised to book which we did and visited on Monday 24th April 2017 and when booking my wife mentioned I was a diabetic. We arrived in the afternoon and met with an extremely friendly welcome and they mentioned some suggestions to suit my diabetic needs. The whole venue, atmosphere was superb and nothing was too much trouble. The home made cakes were wel received and with endless tea and coffee with nostalgic music in the back ground from a lovely jutebox what more could you want on a chilly April afternoon.We done and best wishes for the future and although we are 200 miles away we will re visit this venue again because in particular they helped me enjoy as a diabetic.

Loved this venue for our afternoon tea...really well looked after and the food was scrumptious especially the Brie and cranberry sandwiches and scones. Lots of talented people had displayed home made crafts which you could buy and the rooms are decorated in style

Rather an unusual quirky vintage tea room. Coffee and cake very nice. Lots of memorabilia and friendly staff. There's a good garden centre and various crafts outlets too.

I went to the Vintage Tea rooms today with my sister and the staff were exceptional! The man who worked there not only catered to mine and my sisters experience but also my 2 year old niece. He specifically went out of his way to cater for all of us and make sure that we all enjoyed our first ever afternoon tea. And because of that and the gorgeous tasting food, I would highly recommend the Vintage Tea Rooms to anyone and I am looking forward to go back.

Very vintage but after ordering we had to wait until the 'staff meeting' or gossip finished, then they served some friends before we received our coffee. I had ordered a cherry and walnut and a fruit scone without jam, we received a cheese and a fruit scone with jam! As time was an issue didn't make a fuss. I wasn't entirely happy with the cleanliness of the table etc, it seemed to be sacrificed for vintage. A shame such potential!

I highly recommend this place for a visit. Lovely friendly staff in lovely surrounding. Fantastic food. And you get your tea in a lovely tea pot with a cup and saucer. Oh joy and tea leaves.

Really nice staff and very good food and cake, only stopped here once for a quick bite, but now my wife and i stop every time we pass, and the gifts in the garden centre are really good to, especially beryl's bears...

Visited with wife & daughter for light lunch. We have been before and really enjoyed it so knew what to expect. After a walk around the large showroom of unusual items for sale and various hobbies and courses on offer we went for lunch. Had homemade cheese and cauliflower soup and sandwiches / baked potatoes. Tea came with old fashioned china cups & saucers and proper leaf tea and strainer. Excellent and very reasonably priced.

We were there for my Nan’s birthday. The food was lovely and all fresh. We had afternoon tea and the boys had main meals. Everyone enjoyed the home made quality of the food and the large portion sizes! Although there was too much for us to eat in the afternoon tea, we were able to put anything we wanted in boxes to take home. :) The style of the room was lovely and the afternoon tea was bought out on mix match vintage bone china plates and tea wear – again all very lovely. I know my grandparents will go back and are especially excited to try their Sunday roast dinner! Only downside was that the beer they were serving was out of cans. A bit of a disappointment considering that they had such a lovely wide range of loose leaf teas. We will definitely return.

Love it here, food is great and friendly staff. Highly recommend it. Will definitely be going back again.

We discovered the tea rooms recently , initially we just wanted to visit the shop and garden centre but upon seeing the café and the wonderful display of home made cakes we decided to stop for a lunch. The tea room is tastefully decorated, has a lovely warm atmosphere with mellow background music, a very nice menu and very friendly staff. All the meals are very reasonably priced, and absolutely delicious. The tearooms are open 7 days a week and we are going to become regulars I'm sure !

Beautiful afternoon tea in quaint wonderful tea room. Pay a visit you will bot be disappointed Food gorgeous staff brilliant. Highly recommend

I thought I should update on my last review .There were three of us this time and we pre booked letting the lady on the phone know about the dislikes of one of the party , perfect , the fires lit , music played unobtrusively , the murmer of happy customers and a beautifully prepared feast of a tea , all dislikes catered for and presented in its gorgeous way . Thoroughly enjoyable . The ladies helpful and social , the fires crackled . What more could you want ?

I needed a sandwich to take out...they are not geared up to do this but made me one on a plate, covered it and said I could return the plate whenever. Lovely food and lovely people.

Excellent food and service lovely place well worth s visitWell thought out interior and wide choice of treats and mealsLovely Latte

We came across this place quite by accident on our way to Dilham and have called every time since! A very nice place to sit and have either a drink and cake or a vintage inspired meal. The staff are very friendly and the cakes are baked on the premises. Love it and look forward to visiting again and again

We booked a festive afternoon tea , deposit 10 pounds , and it was superb , the atmosphere enhanced by the decor and real fires . The rain on the roof added the extra cosy feeling . The meal is all made in house , the bread sourced locally , fresh ingredients and care in construction makes for a superb experience . Helpful and social staff and the time to enjoy means that our return is guaranteed . I think the next visit may be for the Sunday lunch , it's a toss up .

We just happened to come across this tea room on our travels, lucky for us! The food is lovely and the cakes are fantastic.What lovely friendly serving staff, will certainly come here again

Wonderful atmosphere, food was lovely. Had a meal but the cakes looked lovely. Staff where very welcoming. Going back for Afternoon Tea next week - can't wait.

We'd planned to stop here for a quick bite part way along our journey, but were tempted by the roast beef dinner (it was a Sunday). The food was really delicious and the service efficient and courteous.

Two lovely hot bowls of soup with warm baguette bread....absolutely delicious. Thankyou also to delightful waitress.

I would personally like to thank the wonderful ladies that served us today! It was my wedding anniversary treat to my husband before a fun filled day shopping, after looking around locally for a nice place to have afternoon tea I stumbled across "A time to remember tea rooms". After looking on trip advisor with the outstanding recommendations I decided that this was the place, I was not let down at all. From start to finish staff and food was outstanding! I did ask for the sandwiches to be cut a certain way and this was done amazingly, to say I was thrilled was an understatement, the sandwiches were beautifully presented and had a generous amount of fresh filling with an accompanying side salad and fresh potato salad and coleslaw that completely pushed the full flavour of the crunchy vegetables and were lavishly creamy. The tea in the beautiful tea pots with fresh leaf tea was quenching and rich in flavour, served in true traditional tea cups and saucers aged sugar bowls filled to the brim with lumps of sweetness to add to my tea. Now to the cakes! Perfectly presented slices of shear heaven, chocolate cake was pure indulgence, the scones with clotted cream and what seemed to be fresh strawberry jam all garnished with fresh strawberries and grapes dusted with what I can only say as fairy dust. After not being able to fully indulge the wonderful lady put our beautiful cakes into a take away box for us to eat later, I cannot recommend you enough. Your staff are amazing and you can see that they are completely committed to serving the public and attention to detail is impeccable with the delicious loved food that you provide. Well done we can't wait to come back to your humble tea room.

We came here for breakfast. All the food was freshly cooked and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommend!

I have stopped here many times on my way to and from Norfolk. I have had some lovely homemade scones and cakes, not tried a meal as my visits are always mid morning, but they smell wonderful. The coffee is individual and you pour it into bone china cups. The staff are always cheerful and welcoming. Keep up the good work ladies.

My partner Mark & I were on a road trip (it was July 15) and came across this quant tea room just off the A17. We thought we would stop for cup of tea and something to eat not expecting to find much but little did we know this hidden gem was set back from the A17 in the country, and upon entering was a step back into the 1940's. We were greeted by a lovely local girl who was very chatty, bubbly and was genuinely asking about our day. We saw some different tea which we had not seen before and also some nice cakes. Upon asking about gluten free options they said they have gluten free cakes coming out the oven as well as other options which they showed us. As we are vegetarian we also enquired about vegetarian food, to which they explained they did do options for vegetarians but if we want something particular it is best to call ahead so they can make sure it is in. We asked for a pot of lovers tea for him and a lovers tea for her as well as the gluten free chocolate cake, we were told to take a seat and it will be over shortly. There are two rooms with 1940s memorabilia which is fantastic to see, in one room there is a old wood burner for the winter and the tables are set out like you would expect for 1940's. The tea is severed properly with a tea strainer, in old traditional tea service china. This is a refreshing step back in time and is so nostalgic it really makes you smile. We have been back several times, each time really enjoying it, they have local regulars who you can have a pleasant conversation with too.

I regularly pop by this place for either a tea and cake. They have a good selection of cake. The tea is loose leaf - remember to use the tea strainer On other occasions I have a jacket potatoe which comes with a small side salad, coleslaw and potatoe salad. The staff are friendly and helpful. Good value for money as well.
