Great selection we had the afternoon savoury tea which was so tasty and great value paid less for that than a coffee in nearby chain restaurant only issue for me for the toilet there are so many funny signs in there that people spend too long, reading them and can be a queue. Very friendly staff would not hesitate to come here again. Well done ladies

We went into the tea rooms on Sunday afternoon and had lovely scones and a hot drink. The home made cakes looked delicious! Very quirky tea room with lots of pictures and items to look at. Waitress was very friendly and chatted about some of the items on sale in there. Will definitely return when we come back to Minehead.

Absolutely fantastic food, staff and atmosphere, served by the owner who made us very welcome. This is a cash only establishment but there is a cashpoint across the road. Well worth a visit and great value for money.

One of the best places to eat, especially if your gluten intolerant, they go out their way to make you welcome, even gave the kids sticker books to keep them happy whilst waiting for the food

This is a wonderfully quaint traditional tea room with the most fantastic savoury cream tea. Ionly give 4 on the food because although excellent they are a tearoom and so no chips or burgers. Also they are cash only

The Apple tree tea room was our go to place when we were in Minehead but after our experience on my last visit we will never go again. On all our previous visits the food and service has been excellent but on our last visit we were left very upset and disappointed by the whole experience and the service we received. Me my husband and two friends attended 2weeks ago we placed our order with the waitress .. who read back the order which was correct however when the order came 2 of the sandwiches ordered were not correct however we thought anyone can make a mistake and initially accepted what we were given. on reflection we realized one of the party could not eat the bread given her and we had also been given two portions of crisps that we hadn't ordered at an extra cost. I called a member of staff over and explained the situation and he then asked an older woman to sort the problem. She very sarcastically said she would remove anything that we didn't want and would replace the sandwiches with the granary bread we actually ordered but did say as the had run out of turkey that they would have to use the same filling which we readily accepted. when the sandwiches came back there was far less than we had returned the sandwiches were much smaller crusts had been removed and instead of the 4 quartered sandwiches there was only 2 on each plate. My husband pointed this out and her response was "I will bring you a knife and you can cut them in half !!!! I wish i had taken photos of the replacement sandwiches received . It was at this point I was very annoyed as the woman's attitude had been very sarcastic and condescending all through and felt as though she was talking down to me .....whatever happened to being courteous to your paying guests. I then asked to speak to the owner as I was not a happy customer only to be told she was in fact the owner at which point I asked where was the usual lovely young lady who was usually in charge was as I had never previously had any problems...... apparently that was her daughter; at which point I did comment that it was such a shame that she didn't take a leaf out her book and treat people with respect. I was very annoyed with the way we were treated and although i told her so i was still respectful to her and was not prepared to be spoken to in that manner. At this point we left and told her we would only be paying for the food and drinks we had actually consumed and that we would never under any circumstances return. We left and went to the Wheelhouse and very extremely happy with our food and excellent customer service

We were visit the area and had sometime to stop for a tea and cake. I had read about this place online. Very easy to find. Public parking is available close by thanks to the park. My daughter had a slice of cake and I had a scone with tea. My only regret, I only had one scone! My advice, order 2! It was lovely and warm and with the clotted cream and jam, it was perfect. Loved the decor, very eclectic. Would go back again.

We must have been unlucky, given all the positive reviews! Sticky table, staff seemed disorganised and not working as a team, standing about and inattentive. Our waitress was sullen, unsmiling and careless… so we didn’t get what we’d ordered and what we did get was mediocre. The whole atmosphere seemed like nobody cared, including the older woman we assumed was the owner who didn’t seem to be noticing how her staff behaved. Very different from other cafes we visited where owners were on the ball and managing their staffs’ conduct all the time. Disappointing, and we won’t go back as there’s much better places and food in the town.

An attractive looking cafe/ restaurant in an avenue with an abundance of various types of food outlets This offers a rather traditional aspect of dining and I would describe it principally as being English cuisine. Moderately priced and efficient staffing, it makes a pleasant place to stop off for tea or coffee or light refreshment. Main meals are also available If you like a traditional tea room where you can take your time, this is a good place to try

Friday afternoon around 3 pm and we were in need of a cup of tea (and hopefully a cream tea) on the last day of our holiday in this lovely seaside town. After walking up and down the high street and all cafes were either shut or shutting, we eventually found Apple Tree Cafe and were made very welcome. We both ordered a cream tea, mine with the famous Wortlebury jam, and hubby had strawberry jam. The staff were delightful, the tea was in a pot and the scones were warm and homemade. Well worth a visit.

It is a fantastic place to stop for a break, and we ended up taking some of the cakes back with us as we couldn't eat everything. They are dog friendly, and our little dog Vera said hello to the resident dog Pedro the poodle. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Minehead.

The atmosphere inside suited us perfectly as I love music of the 30s to the 60s and my husband is mad about art. Not to say that this is a serious place..the staff are very cheery.

We've tried other places in Minehead but keep coming back to the Apple Tree. In our opinion it's the best tea room within easy reach of the sea front. Recently we sat in the garden area at the back which was a pleasant relief from the traffic fumes at the front from the busy road. Being on a budget we stuck to sandwiches and tea which were very nice. Why only 4 stars? They only take cash payments which in these covid times is surprising as contactless payments would be much healthier all round.

Very busy little place, helpful staff who apologized several yes for a delay, which wasn't that long. Good food, and freshly prepared. Would definitely return.

We can’t recommend this cafe enough! We were visiting Minehead for a short break with my elderly mum and I wanted to organise an afternoon tea for her birthday which we could take on the steam train. After calling Naomi the week before our visit, she couldn’t have been more helpful with arranging exactly what we wanted. Selection of sandwiches, gorgeous homemade cakes and scones with jam and cream! She provided everything we needed including cutlery, napkins, cups, candles and even balloons and a card for mum! Everything was ready when I collected in the morning and Naomi and her staff couldn’t have been more helpful and kind. Everything was so delicious and just made our train journey perfect. The cafe itself is so lovely, decorated in bright colours and vintage pictures and furniture. Just lovely 🥰 Thank you Naomi and her team. X Will visit again when we are in the area x

Lovely to find a traditional tea shop in Minehead. Staff were friendly and efficient. Only criticism is that there was not enough jam or cream for 2 scones which was a pity as the scones were lovely. However would definitely visit again when next in the area.

A nice slice of cake and a cup of tea listening to old music and could hear the old steam cart going up the road.

Having visited this cottage about 4 years ago I was determined to go back and I did on the 6th of September. We was extremely lucky with the weather and I'm delighted to say everything was perfect. We ordered 2 cream teas, excellent quality and very well presented, we felt welcomed and staff was very friendly. The cottage was superb. The grounds and views was simply majestic. Whilst other parts of the country is losing its identity this charming cottage reminds me that somethings can stay traditional. Thank you for a sensational experience.
