Abbey Tea Rooms & Licensed Restaurant in Mendip

He reservado una mesa aquí para el almuerzo para cuatro personas. De la variada carta todos elegimos el Pollo Asado con todos los adornos. Absolutamente excelente. Maravillosas porciones, tubería caliente y muy bien presentado. Mención especial merecen las patatas asadas... eran excepcionales. Para terminar seleccionamos el crumble de manzana y mora con natillas. Una vez más, todo buena cocina casera. Sin duda recomendaría este restaurante y también sugeriría reservar con antelación sería recomendable.

Estábamos reservados justo antes del carnaval de la noche - un momento muy ocupado! A pesar de eso, nos dieron una cálida bienvenida por el propietario y el servicio era amable y eficiente. La comida era tradicional y casera, pero lo más destacado fue el crumble de frutas. Se cocinó en un plato y luego se repartió. MUCHO mejor que muchos lugares donde se obtiene un tazón de la fruta cocida con la cobertura desmenuzada puesta después! De todos modos, me alegró el día encontrar esto, especialmente porque la dueña nos informó que la fruta fue recogida de su huerto también. Imagino que todos los pasteles y golosinas son de una calidad similar así que no dudaría en volver en el futuro.

Normalmente de primera pero ayer la pastelería de los pasteles estaba mal cocida y empapada y las patatas asadas, aunque parecían soberbias, tenían pieles que costaba insertar un tenedor. Normalmente estoy feliz de pagar un precio más alto por buena comida, pero no ayer. Lo sentimos - el personal es encantador

Fuimos para una comida a la hora del almuerzo, que era encantador! La comida es excelente y el personal es increíble. Teníamos el cerdo asado y el tamaño de la porción era muy generoso. La comida estaba deliciosa. La comida del salón de té y el ambiente es tan encantador que esta es nuestra sexta visita ya que vamos cada vez que venimos a Somerset. Mary y su personal es amable y muy acogedor! El salón de té también es apto para perros y Monty nuestro golden retriever es muy mimado cuando está allí. En general, una visita fantástica!

Mi madre y yo tuvimos un cupón de té crema de celebración dado como regalo de Navidad de la familia. Decidimos usarlo hoy y lo pasamos de maravilla. Hacía buen tiempo así que nos sentamos fuera en el precioso patio cerrado. Mi madre es usuaria de silla de ruedas y el patio era muy accesible. Incluso teníamos una mesa reservada en el interior en caso de que el clima cambiara. El té de la celebración era absolutamente delicioso, sándwiches de salmón y queso crema hechos en pan fresco suave, deliciosos bollos caseros hechos que eran ligeros y esponjosos servidos con crema coagulada y mermelada, tartaletas de frutas y chocolate Tiffin todo hecho a mano y deliciosamente fresco. Sólo quiero agradecer a todos en el salón de té Abbey por hacer nuestra tarde tan especial. El servicio de Eileen, Barbara y Dan era 2nd a ninguno, y Curtis es el panadero más magnífico. Recomiendo una visita.

Came in due to seeing lots of positive reviews on trip advisor. It was quiet but the food came out really slow. Waited a long time. The breakfast was ok. Disappointed with my overcooked and therefore it unrunny egg. Only offer brown bread which I don't like. Bacon was nice. It was missing some kind of potato type element, for example a hash brown or fried new potatoes. The young lad serving us was great working really hard around the tables as people came in after us. No check back though on the food which I think is important to do. Overall it was ok. Nothing great but ok. At nearly 10£ a breakfast the price point was high compared to what you get

Enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea with our daughter and son-in-law whilst visiting Glastonbury. Lovely atmosphere and great service.

We ordered a roast chicken meal and steak and ale pie. They came with lovely roast potatoes and a selection of vegetables.

We were there for afternoon tea and I asked to change the time of my booking less than three hours in advance and they obliged even though obviously very busy. Plenty of gluten free options which delighted my wife. Pleasant ambience, efficient, friendly service and lovely food.

Two visits last week. First time with son we all had toasted sandwiches. Second time we had roast chicken, roast potatoes and vegetables. Lovely coffee.

Ok, so the tuna and cheese sandwich was ok… and the scones and cream / jam were lovely. But, if you like your coffee… this might not be the place for you. My Oatmilk latte was less than adequate and my wife’s soya latte (round one) was at best described as lumpy. After we sent that back and the second one came, initially we were comforted that there were no lumps but, neither was there any distinguishable look or taste of coffee. £24 for one awful, one barely adequate coffee and a toasted tuna/cheese on brown with two, Scones, Jam and Cream felt a little too high for me. Won’t be going back. The subsequent coffee up the road at Heaphys blew this out of the park; looked and tasted superb. Sorry Abbey Tea Rooms - must do better.

We called into the Abbey Tea Rooms for a quick drink and a snack as we only had limited time. The staff were very helpful. The coffee was served nice and hot with hot milk on the side as requested. We only had time for a toasted tea cake but again this was served very nicely. They did have a good selection of cakes and the scones, jam and cream that we saw being served looked very good as did other food, so we shall be going back to try these soon.

Rude and disinterested service, staff seem much more interested in chatting amongst themselves than serving customers. Food was pretty substandard too.

I have just left Abbey Tea Rooms having spent some time then with my daughter. We both had an absolutely lovely time thanks to the environment, the food, the drinks and the service. We felt as though we were in a little piece of English tradition. Would definitely recommend.

I cannot recommend this wonderful find, enough; there was nothing I'd change. Everything was 10/10: • food - made as you wait; fresh, local produce; no change seen as an inconvenient • service - friendly; informative and cheerful I would go back in a heartbeat & am already looking forward to working my way through the Specials!

Traditional English tea room, a little over decorated and nice if you like red and pink. There is parking directly opposite. It is dog friendly. It is quite large inside, but the tables are quite tightly packed. It is clean and nicely presented however. I would say it is not disabled friendly due to this, the toilet being unisex and the size of a fridge freezer. The staff were excellent and could not have done more to make our visit enjoyable. Nothing was too much of an ask. There appears to be no set service charge, they do deserve a tip though. This is another establishment were we could not fault the food, while we only had sandwiches, they were really well filled, fresh and well presented. The cakes and deserts we had were equally as good. Vegan, vegetarian and allergy options are also available. Superb coffee. As for value for money, I think you would find it hard to beat, around £75 for lunch for four, not including a service charge. We had booked, it may be worth while doing this as it was busy, especially if you are a party of four or more. We will be in Glastonbury in April next year and will definitely visit again.

It is nice to find still a really traditional tearoom with excellent service and lovely tea and cakes. The staff is very friendly and nothing is too much for them. The service is fast and efficient. We love the traditional decor and atmosphere. We will be definitely back when visiting Glastonbury!

Went for breakfast at this Lovely little tearoom. We cannot fault the staff,they were attentive and generally pleasant. BUT the full English breakfast left us feeling rather nauseous. Anaemic bacon,undercooked eggs,a side of raw tomato and slimy mushrooms. The sausage tasted like a cheap and not so cheerful addition. I stress that the servng staff were lovely,this is directed at the quality of cooking not them.

My wife and I cannot recommend this tea room highly enough. We have never been disappointed. Every time we visit we receive the same professional service. The food is fantastic. A typical old fashioned British tea room, and we love it .

We met up here with family who were staying in the area. I cannot praise the service and food highly enough. I had phoned ahead as I have an unusual food sensitivity, the owner was so helpful and when we arrived she had alerted the staff and they knew all about it. This is not a normal occurrence so it was such a treat. All the food is properly home cooked from local ingredients, accordingly you might have to wait a while but it’s absolutely worth it. The staff were absolutely lovely with our little great nephew. Booking a table is highly recommended the restaurant was full in no time. As we are fairly local we will definitely be back. Thank you so much

Arrived on time table waiting for us place absolutely packed cream tea absolutely delicious well worth a visit but I would recommend that you book as they were curing at the door as people left so people were coming in well worth a visit best cream tea I've had in years thoroughly recommend

What a fantastic tea rooms. For any overseas visitors keen to experience a really authentic and traditional English breakfast, this is one of the best I've had anywhere. My dining companion enjoyed her smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. They also make a lovely coffee and the service was excellent. Prices reasonable for the location.

After a disappointing visit earlier this year we decided to visit again. This time the staff knew what they were doing and were very helpful. We had toasted sandwiches they were ok, but not very filling. My husband had cheese and tomato but is was lacking tomatoes. Lovely coffee.

Bella atmosfera retro. Cibo ottimo. Servizio attento e rilassato. Da provare. Servono sandwiches, tea, pranzo con prodotti locali

Lovely welcoming quaint old fashioned tea room/restaurant. Opposite the car park in front of the 'Olde Abbey ruins'. Good few tables inside. Waitress and waiter serve with a smile. Very good menu, Breakfast served from 10am, lunches and cream teas. Open 9- 5pm

We enjoyed the most delicious scones and tea here... and on another day a delicious knickerbocker glory! So good! The place itself is very lovely and staff is so nice and attentive, too.

This tea rooms is picture postcard perfect, looking like you've stepped into the 1940s. It was pouring the day we went, so we were very happy to get inside somewhere so cosy and welcoming. What wasn't old fashioned, was the quality of the food and the service, as both were excellent. The food was high quality and delicious, with generous portions. The staff were friendly and the service very smooth.

We had the cream tea, the scones were absolutely delicious, so light. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The tea rooms are situated just opposite the Abbey. It was nice to see a traditional tea room.

Friendly staff and lovely food. Good location, just near Glastonbury Abbey. Reasonably priced. Would love to return to this tea room.

If you come to Glastonbury a visit to Abbey Tearooms is a must. The cream teas are amazing, as is all their food in fact! The staff are so helpful and the surroundings are lovely.

Lovely little tearoom in the centre of Glastonbury. We had walked in from our campsite and it was about to rain (again!) so we popped in for tea for two. Really friendly staff and quick service. £3 each for tea, which we thought was expensive, however it came in a large pot with another pot of hot water, so plenty to drink. Old fashioned tearooms, with good old fashioned service.

Visited today and was shocked at the service for coffee and snack.I ordered a smoked salmon sandwich and coffees to be told the only bread they had was almond bread so declined the order the drinks arrived after a long wait to find that the (large) coffee cups were only 3/4 full .I complained about the bread (they didn't seem to realise what a nut allergy is and what could happen) considering that directly opposite there is a bakery full of local baked bread pretty shameful really. When we lived locally we used the tearoom often, I did ask if the place had changed owners but was told no.The outcome is we will now give this place a wide berth and will not return.such a shame as this was a good place for coffee and food.

Lovely little tearoom with fresh cakes and sandwiches. We stopped for afternoon tea and it was worth every penny. Would definitely recommend

Our tour guide brought my husband and I here and we had a great lunch! I got the cream tea and my husband got a great sandwich. It's small, but cozy and they had great scones and clotted cream!

We visited here when visiting the Abbey for coffee and later lunch. All were good quality at reasonable prices, served promptly and "with a smile" Good range of cakes and sandwiches. Would recommend.

A fantastic quaint tea room! We had a lovely lunch great portions, friendly place, dog friendly and also do a gluten free cream tea!! Highly recommended!

Not the best tea room I’ve been too but pleasant enough and very friendly staff. Afternoon tea was rather basic but the scones were delicious.

Good food, decent portions, friendly service. Not much more you need really! This isn't a place to nip in for a fast snack, but then again, if you're visiting Glastonbury then you probably aren't in a hurry.

Whenever I visit Glastonbury I come to the Tearooms. The food is delicious and like home cooked. The staff are so kind and friendly.

A small tea room opposite the Abbey gardens with a full menu and friendly service. We went for a cheese scone and cheese board, to try the local cheeses. The food was tasty and fresh and prices are reasonable. Services was friendly and the place...

A real old a fashioned type tea rooms. Really happy to find this place. Great, very friendly service, lovely food, and good price. Couldn’t fault the whole experience. The bonus is, that it wasn’t a high street chain!

Expensive and not welcoming. Service was ok but everything arrived at different times. Don't ask any questions like 'is there a high chair please'

Service was excellent and the food was delicious. Lots of locally sourced produce on the menu. Would highly recommend for a lunch stop.

A fabulous place, very cosy and the food was gorgeous. Very helpful waitress couldn't do enough , would recommend if you're ever visiting Glastonbury. Booking may be a good idea though to avoid disappointment.

How lovely - a wonderful tea room - we always get great coffee here and wonderful cakes. But more importantly, the cafe provides a good service to their customers. The waitress had wanted to close the door so that we were not chilly. I so...

I think the roast beef is the same as you would get in a supermarket frozen section, it wasn't very nice. There are so many trinkets in the place covered in dust that it doesn't feel very clean in there.

After a long walk we needed some refreshments and a bit of cake. This lovely place sprung to mind. The service was good and the food and beverages were very well made. I would recommend it to anyone due to the service and food.

We had lunch in this nice little restaurant which is situated in the centre of Glastonbury. Our home made soup, toasted sandwiches and coffee were all very good as was the service. Definitely worth a visit

Excellent toasted sandwiches. We stopped here on a Saturday lunch time and hand the toasted ham and Brie sandwich and a cheese and onion toasted sandwich both where excellent and highly recommended. I am very fussy about the coffee I drink and this was also...

Superb lunch and service. Very busy but food delivered within 5 minutes. Lovely salmon and prawn salad. Also offer afternoon teas and superb cakes. Truly a gem!

Very nice reasonably priced cafe offering a range of snacks, sandwiches, lunches etc. Bread & scones can be ordered for gluten free customers with no fuss. Lovely scone.

We had a lunchtime meal here . The whole meal was great, the welcome form the young man was excellent , going through the needed covid requirements. The service first class and the food great.

Stopped for afternoon tea on a rainy day in Glastonbury It was nice - and washed down with a glass of Prosecco. Only small problem was the waitress was rushed off her feet. And there was also some out of date butter on our table...

Wonderful afternoon tea. Delicious fresh sandwiches hot tea and a beautiful warm scone with jam and the thickest clotted cream. Great service. Overlooking the abbey. Lots of afternoon tea options to choose from.

We called in for Lunch. There was a choice of 4 or 5 choices on their Specials Board. I had Chicken, Bacon and Mushroom Pie. It came with roast potatoes, carrots, leaks, cauliflower and broccoli, all freshly cooked. Good value at £9-90. My wife had smoked salmon and soft cheese sandwiches, which came with a side salad, looked nice. There was a wide choice of sandwiches along with scones, jacket potatoes and more.Lunch was so good we came back later for a cream tea.Recommended.

What a brilliant find!!!! Food outstanding. Home cooked. Great portions. Amazing selections of deserts and cakes. Please don't eat anywhere else!!! And really great prices! And you are supporting local business.

Stayed in Glastonbury for a couple of days. popped in just after 4pm, unfortunately the kitchen was closed. However we had a lovely cream tea, warm scones and loads of clotted cream Mmmmm. We had a look at the menu and decided to have breakfast there the next day, and what a nice breakfast it was. Everything was locally sourced, plenty of toast, a wide range of teas to choose from. The redbush is particularly good. Nice friendly service, will definitely call again when in the area.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, with good service in a pleasant setting. The menu offers a very good choice of food.

Just a couple of hours in Glastonbury as we toured the area.The Abbey had a wider menu but supplied just what we wanted -excellent cream teas.Service was good and unlike typical destinations price were reasonable. Definitely recommended

Visited the tearoom twice first to have tea and cheese scones with pickle then back the next day for a Knickerbocker glory and ice cream sundae. Traditional tearoom serving home cooked produce all very well run with good covid practices

Popped in here on a trip to Glastonbury. Very nice tearoom and very nice, friendly staff but we found the quality of food a little lacking. The scones were quite small and plain only (no fruit scones). The carrot, lentil & coconut soup is best avoided. Tasteless and distinctly absent of any lentil. Still, it was a nice place to duck in and get out of the rain.
