Belinda's Tearooms in Arun

Great spot for breakfast . Had been recommended by a friend so thought we’d give it a go . Really nice food , coffee wA a particularly nice 👌. Will be new regulars

Came to Arundel on a coach trip for a trip to the castle and found time for some lunch before we left . Stumbled across Belindas and please to say it was a great fine . Lovely panini follow by a delicious cream tea . Excellent all round experience 😊

We weee recommended this place by a friend a while back so decided to go ve it a try . Really pleased we did as it’s such a lovely setting . We had a lovely meal and some drinks and really couldn’t fault the place . The staff were lovely too .

Lovely little spotted recommended by a friend . Lovely food and service . Would definitely go again . Great little courtyard garden too however the weather wasn’t great so we couldn’t use it .

Staff very friendly, food good, but crockery dirty. Cups tea stained, glasses very water marked, tea pots dirty, and worst of all milk residue inside milk jugs 🤢 We pored from the side.

Superb breakfast - one of the best I have had in 10 years. Perfectly good and excellent ingredients Bacon, Sausage, Hash brown, beans granary toast mushrooms. The coffee was also excellent and we were in heaven. Service was efficient and friendly. Very busy as it was a warm, sunny Spring day and there was Arundel Literary Festival on. All this for £26 was good value.

Atmospheric little eaterie just off the main drag in Arundel. Has the feeling of an old smugglers pub. Service was a little slow when we went on the Saturday when it was pretty busy, but super-efficient when we dropped in on our return journey home from a break down in Seaford. Great sandwiches, good coffee + they do larger meals too which change daily-ish. Homemade Mushroom Soup got a big thumbs up, as did the Coronation Chicken sandwiches.

We went in for coffee and a late breakfast which was very good. Lovely cosy atmosphere, and helpful friendly staff. Would definitely recommend. We also bought some cake to take away with us which was also very good.

Cream tea in quirky old restaurant/ cafe. Went for a long walk and wanted to hunt down a cream tea. Good value and nice scones

Really busy but managed to squeeze in for Saturday brunch. Couldn’t resist the Festive fries an absolute treat in December and super filling on a cold day. Service was great, portions were great and the ambience was great. Thoroughly recommend

We booked a table for 6 people and enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea and cream tea. The food was delicious and the service very good. My husband’s dairy-free afternoon tea was very much enjoyed. A lovely cosy setting to spend an autumn afternoon with a real fire! Highly recommended! :) Quiet calm and cosy experience 👍🏻

So refreshing to have some excellent customer service from a young lady who obviously takes pride in her work. Chloe was delightful from start to finish; I think the vast majority of customer facing employees that I have encountered, would benefit from a training session with her.

What a delightfully quaint tea room. I’ve passed this building so many times, over so many decades, but never been drawn to it until today. Perhaps it was the autumnal decorations that lured us in! I had a scampi meal with very tasty chips, and my sister had scrambled egg - both went down very well. Our lattes were delicious, as was a surprise milkshake!! The staff were exceptional, very friendly and keen to provide a good experience for customers. I don’t visit Arundel often, however it’s good to find a ‘go to’ place, and Belinda’s is it.

prices seem fair. If you have a disability there are serious steps to negotiate. Food is good, service a tad haphazard. Cramped space, don't come with a baby buggy

My friend and I enjoyed a really nice afternoon tea there and "Lilly" who served us was very welcoming and friendly. My friend is gluten and milk free so was delighted with her gluten and milk free sandwiches and cakes! We will come again soon! Well done Lilley and all at Belinda's Tea rooms! x

Hidden off the main street this is a hidden gem. Belinda's is not just a tea room but excellent for lunch, the steak pies were fabulous as were the omelette and the scampi. Could not fault the service or the atmosphere in Belinda's. Highly recommend.

We decided on Belinda's for lunch as we had often walked round Arundel but found Belinda's always busy with no free tables. This time however we sat at a little table by the door to the outside area. I ordered a prawn jacket potato and a latte with my friend ordering omelette and chips and a beer. Both dishes were brought within 10 minutes and were really ideal - tasty and moorish. Upon leaving, we paid at the counter and were thanked for coming in and to please come back. Wonderful attitude toward your clientele - there are many eating places in Arundel - please try Belinda's - I'm sure you won't be disappointed!

Had Afternoon Tea for 3 with a glass of Prosecco tea and coffee. Cakes sandwiches and scones were delicious and fresh. Staff very professional and polite couldn’t do enough for you . Very pleasant afternoon . Recommend you go on your next visit you won’t be disappointed

Great atmosphere and lovely gluten free afternoon tea, well presented and tasty. The staff were friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit

Stopped here for a quick tea and a 'slab' of cake. Very friendly and polite waitress served us and was very helpful with the option of cakes. One of us had a lactose intolerance, no problem they have vegan cakes which was one of the best I have tried. Nice outside seating to the rear and very clean. The menu said a slab of cake and that is just what we got, a good 'home' size slice.

Great out door space and really good service. However very overpriced, we had ploughman's which consisted of one thin slice of bread, three very thin slices of cheese a bit of salad and coleslaw, a bit of apple and one pickled onion for £12.50. Also had a side of new potatoes which was three sliced to look like six for £2.50, this equates to over 80p for one small spud! The coffee was also poor. Very disappointed and felt we had been taken advantage of. Given the wealth of choice in Arundel, I would advise to look elsewhere

Food okay, two yonger staff on duty serving who were lovely but the mature waitress was basically rude. She tutted and rolled her eyes when one person slightly confused her with ordering. When she brought the drinks over she said " are you happy now! In fairness it was very busy and only three staff, we waited ages for our food and nearly had to leave just as it turned up. But it was less about the long wait and more about the rudness of this one person. I've worked as a waitress and in other customer service roles, had I spoken to customers like that I would have been sacked. We had all been to Belindas before but we won't be returning again based on the customer service experience of this one server! Such a shame

What’s happened? This is a historic beautiful unique restaurant that is suddenly trying to become a trendy cafe! The charm and appeal was that it was traditional, it was old fashioned, there are literally hundreds of tea shops offering generic metal seats and dull China. People come to arundel to experience history. Such a shame this individual gem has succumbed to the boring same old cafes that are two a penny! I feel a massive error that will see sales diminish over time.

We had red pepper & lentil soup with a brown bread roll & butter. The bread was very salty and the soup tasted acidic - too much lemon juice? Very disappointing as previous visits have been excellent.

We had Afternoon Tea to celebrate my partners birthday. What can I say, absolute amazing! Excellent choice of sandwiches, quiche gorgeous, choice of cakes were all lovely and the scones were out of this world. This, combined with excellent service and beautiful surroundings made for a wonderful experience. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

We popped in to Belinda's for a light lunch and very nice it was. A slice of shared walnut and coffee cake with coffees helped. The waitress was very pleasant which completed a nice break.

We visited this tea room during a day out in Arundel. The cups were clearly vintage and, although this can be charming, the ones we were given had permanent stains in them. The tea spoons were stained too and the tea pots didn't look like...

Full English was tasty but the price for what you get is too much or at least add a drink to it . Staff very friendly and we were served quickly.

My daughter booked us for a Christmas lunch and I was so upset that the meat was cold and the lunch could have been a bit more upmarket considering the price. I understand everyone has to make a living but don’t rob customers with poor...

Excellent tearooms very welcoming even our dog was welcomed Coffee & cake delicious Wonderful open fire Would truly recommend this tearoom

So friendly. Cute garden. Great staff. Very oldy worldy! Lovely cakes and drinks. Milkshakes needed a bit extra shaking and storing as they were quite syruppy but when we questioned it they helped fix it.

Really great traditional cream tea - quality tea, two tasty scones, clotted cream and raspberry jam! What gets better?

We popped in for a breakfast .lovely food excellent service ,one of the nicest full English I've had in ages .Worth a visit

Sadly probably won’t be going back any time soon. Had ham, egg and chips. What a disappointment. Ham was dry, stringy and too thickly sliced, chips were obviously oven chips and grainy and bread was stale. Have used Belindas regularly over the years, it’s not...

Visited Belinda's on Sunday where we have been going since the 90's but first time we have needed a gluten free menu. (We researched before we went). Staff were very helpful. Gluten free scones, cakes and bread were available. We decided to share an Afternoon...

Always choose Belinda's when I visit Arundel but not happy with today's. Breakfast for 3 cost an exorbitant £40. I was treating my son and daughter in law but I felt let down and slightly embarrassed. Food was ok but nothing great, I feel as...

Upon our arrival in Arundel we fancied something small to eat so we decided on scones and tea and found this cosy place. The scones were delicious and my daughter enjoyed her hot chocolate. The waitresses were friendly and we appreciated the colour pens available...

A hidden gem in Arundal. We visited for breakfast it was lovely and clean with helpful staff and the food was excellent. Both vegetarians and meat eaters are catered for and the plates were hot! We will definitely visit again.

I have visited Belinda's the other day with a friend of mine for a cup of coffee. I ordered a cappuccino and it arrived with chocolate on top. I've send it back, waiter said I never told them I didn't like sprinkles on top. I...

Nice enough tea room. Cakes were fresh and they didn’t skimp on portion size and took the edge of our appetite. I left some of the frosting as too much for me (but others I’m sure would eat it all). Tea and latte were hot...

Nice little tea room but breakfasts were pretty average though.I didn’t bother with my second sausage or tomato’s. On the up side plenty of toast with them. We’ll try elsewhere next time we’re in the area.

Such a shame the service was bright and cheery. Unfortunately the food was awful . Had pie, chips and peas. The pastry on the pie was soggy and not cooked, I am sure it had been heated in a microwave. The chips were dry, slightly...

Waited for long time to be seated (there were about 3 tables occupied at that time), then approached the waitress at the counter who kindly asked us sit in one of the tables opposite to the counter. Then next waitress comes and told us off...

Firstly, I’m not a moaner, and only look for the good in people….but, the tea room was about half full, with lots of free tables, but still had to wait 10 minutes to be seated, 15 minutes to be asked our order, in between waiting...

we have been to belindas a couple of times over the years and have always enjoyed it so decided to take our mums there for a mother’s day cream tea and it was the lovliest time we’ve had! from the decor to the food everything...

I have always enjoyed the atmosphere and food at Belindas in Arundel. I enjoyed the decor of brass pots and posters. It had a great vibe in their , I often went with a friend so we could have a roast lamb or beef. I...

We visited Belinda's at about 2.30pm yesterday where upon we decided to have an all day breakfast. When we entered we were surprised that there were a fair few tables vacant but with dirty plates etc still left awaiting clearance. When we placed our order...

Popped in for breakfast and to say we were disappointed is an understatement. You stand inside the door and wait to be seated, and we felt we just got ignored, and plenty of other people that came in experienced the same thing. The place is...

Arundel is a charming town to visit & is full of places to eat & drink. Belinda’s is a charming tea room/restaurant with plenty of curb appeal. It is dog friendly in their outside courtyard so decided on here for mid morning coffee break. Really...

We visited the café for the first time on a Saturday just after lunchtime. My Girlfriend and I had the full English breakfast and our children had sausage and chips. Then for after the children both had chocolate cake. My son is dairy intolerant and...

Came with the kids it had a warm friendly atmosphere, the cooked breakfast was amazing especially the sausages. Would definitely recommend!

Guter englischer Tee und sehr feine Cake, Scones und clothed Creme Das Servicepersonal sind Hausfrauen ohne Ausbildung, das Level ist...

I was on way back from a business trip and decided to stop in Arundel for quick brunch. Found out this was a new business venture so I decided to try. I was extremely happy with my breakfast. I wish them the best of luck.

Headed down to Belindas for a family lunch. Greeted with a smile and a friendly welcome. Drinks served very quickly and the food was delicious. It's a quirky little place with great service, the cakes were simply devine. Will definitely be back soon.

Popped in to Belindas on the off chance for a light lunch, lovely atmosphere and a cosy/welcoming fire too ! We had smashed avocado, with poached eggs on sourdough which was delicious and a lovely pot of tea - and china teacups - perfect !...

The service was quick and friendly. We had an all day breakfast and everything about it was good. Would totally recommend. Cannot understand previous review and am very sceptical about it's authenticity.

Had the English breakfast, and it was delicious. Perfectly cooked, and extremely pleasant service. I've read some negative reviews and can't believe it. We'll certainly be returning, and would recommend it to anyone.

Had my first visit to Belinda's tea rooms a couple of weeks ago and was very impressed, lovely staff and great service, had a drink and slice of cake which il definitely have again and will for sure return many more times

Have been to Belinda’s quite a few times over the years but this visit was far from good. 40 minutes to get a coffee. Even longer for a breakfast which was cheap ingredients and frankly pretty horrid. Requested no beans but that must have been...

Visiting with several others I chose a slice of Victoria sandwich. Unfortunately dry and probably a week old. Friend had a scone which again was dry.

A real tea room/ restaurant. Stopped here for lunch with family and left smiling. Good home cooked food, pleasant staff and reasonable prices.

We have been dreaming about Belinda's cream tea since the beginning of the pandemic and could wait no longer! Everything was as perfect as usual. Superb fresh scones and attentive service. We will be back!

Stopped here on way to castle from car-park. Clean and inviting place; friendly staff and gluten-free options available for my sister-in-law. Prompt service but we did not feel rushed.

We waited to be seated - no one took any notice so we seated ourselves.we then waited to be served for ages watching other people stand at the entrance like Pratt’s eventually leaving.I think they need to have someone who is in charge to oversee...

Disappointed that the afternoon tea we had been enjoying every summer did not meet the same quality at all. The scones were tiny, cakes were dry, the sandwiches with hardly any filling. Ploughman was dry bits of lettuce with horrible bread. Won’t be going back...

Very slow service. Disinterested staff. Tasteless food. People at other tables were served before us. A chaotic experience. Avoid at all costs!

Such a wonderful place for lunch. Full of homely atmosphere in this 15thC building. Very warmly greeted by the very courteous and gracious Jess who showed me to my table. My lunch of roast lamb was very generous and hot with three fresh veg, great...

Hi there jest been here and had a all day b breakfast and did not get any mushrooms but it was very nice but just that one missing

Rainy day beautifully saved by drop in for tea and cake. Nice setting and great that dogs are invited.

Scrumptious cream teas, sandwiches and savouries. I made my second visit in a couple of weeks, this time taking along my wife and two of our extended family. The table was full of food and hot drinks all served in a wooden beamed 16th atmosphere...

We came across this lovely little tea room while wandering around town and were delighted to find they had plenty of gluten free options and even better a lamb roast for Sunday lunch. Staff were really nice and and friendly with covid precautions very well...

Had afternoon tea and really enjoyed the food, helpful staff and lovely courtyard garden. Located in the centre of Arundel and good value.

We found this little place while searching for somewhere for breakfast and so glad we did - we had the cooked breakfast and it was delicious. The staff were very warm and friendly and can highly recommend it.

Adorable traditional tea rooms with very friendly staff, great coffee & absolutely delicious cooked breakfasts, all freshly prepared. An essential stop for anyone visiting Arundel!

My very tasty lunch was warm quiche lorraine served with warm new potatoes, salad, coleslaw etc. I would recommend!

Visited today and I had the best gluten free cream tea. Wonderful, fresh, gluten free plain scones with superb jam and clotted cream. These scones are better than anything I’ve eaten gluten free in the West Country. Service was brilliant. Never stop making them! A...

So refreshing to see home cooking is still alive, cakes to die for, service excellent Covid compliant, Food plentiful, and well presented, no mass produced frozen anything, Lovely charm and very old British feel, in the heart of Arundel.

I’m ashamed to admit I had low expectations of Belinda’s as a Celiac looking for a gluten-free cream tea. The restaurant seemed outdated in vibe and menu, but not so in reality! Service was warm, friendly, and accommodating. My husband and I were seated soon...

Welcoming staff,they went above and beyond for one of our party who is a celiac,reasonable prices for Arundel and food was tasty. They have a sweet little outside seating area

The staff at Belinda's Tearooms are very friendly and welcoming. The food is great and value for money.

My family and i popped in for lunch. If you like cold, reheated toast that can't be cut with a knife and a stingy small portion of eggs this is the place for you! The 2 other meals we had were really disappointing. Overpriced for...

Went for lunch here with a friend after a local walk and had chicken and ham pie with veg and roast potatoes. Out outside in the terrace and then came in when it got cold - the table are divided by perspex screens and the...

Really enjoyed our visit. Well set out and COVID conscious arrangements. Really great welcome from the owner who had a lovely sense of humour. Recommend the savoury set tea and the banter!

Lovely tea room nice fine china,tea and coffee good big slab of bakewell tart,social distance very good nice staff.

Wonderful afternoon tea, sandwiches were delicious, scones and cakes amazing, great staff and lovely outdoor area, highly recommend

We stopped for a cooffee which ended up being a lunch. We sat in the courtyard at the rear of the restaurant which is an oasis from the hustle and bustle. The staff were a delight and the food was very good especially for the...

Lovely tearoom which has been there for years. Very friendly service. Good coffee and cakes. Sat outside in a tiny courtyard at the back which was nice.

Stopped off for tea and scones. Beautifully warm and home baked. Shame about the wasps but hard to avoid this time of the year.

We visited here for lunch. It is a quaint and old fashioned little cafe. It’s like stepping back in time in a good way. The staff are friendly and helpful. It is also dog friendly. The prawn sandwiches were the best I’ve had in a long time. My husband had the coronation chicken sandwiches which were also excellent. For an old cafe they have safety measures in place during these challenging times re Covid, so you feel safe and comfortable.

We visited Arundel twice this summer and went to Belinda’s for lunch both times. Amazing value for money and lovely friendly staff. No stingy portions and excellent food. We will definitely go there for lunch every time we visit.

My daughter and I visited Belindas this afternoon and were so impressed with our experience! Everything was really reassuringly clean and well thought out and most importantly our drinks and food were really lovely. The cream tea was delicious, I chose the clotted cream option. The staff were attentive friendly and super efficient and it was all round a really lovely visit. Thank you all!

Desperate to find somewhere in Arundel for my husband who is coeliac to eat, that wasn’t Pizza Express. Not only did they have a selection of gluten free options, they even had gluten free scones, so he could have a gluten free cream tea - this made his day! Wonderful staff, reasonably priced, good location, wonderful old building and they have taken the COVID safety precautions very seriously, which was an added bonus of feeling safe & well looked after. Would highly recommend & would advise you book!

Lovely comfortable surroundings in a 16th century building, good food, friendly, efficient service - would definitely call again if we were in the area.

Had a lovely family breakfast. Small 16th century building with a nice patio out the back. Staff were lovely and good service. They were very accommodating for our toddler. Would visit again. They also were great with hygiene, wore shields, had a seperate exit for social distancing.

A lovely lunch with a friend sat in the back patio area.We both had the BLT.This is one of my favourite tea shops in the area.I love their tea and the sweet china tea cups.The cakes are delicious - the rock cake being my favourite.It was nice to introduce my friend to Belinda’s as this was a 1st visit.COVID-19 controls are in place, which is good to see.It was also nice to see that the 50% discount “Eat out to Help out” scheme was also in place.

First time visit this small town , after walk around up hill & down hill ( Castle & Church all closed on Monday )Look really history outside , walk in for ours light lunch . Good services dine in or back garden sit . Really hot roast dinner , soup hot but flat taste ,reasonable price , back to normal season . Hope everyone all the best .

Arrived in Arundel for a two night stay and had lunch in here the first day- jacket potato, coleslaw and salad and ham, eggs and chips. All good quality, served reasonably quickly as the were full and would certainly return if in the area.

I am a sucker for a good cream tea and we were not disappointed here. The tearoom is a real fun place. We had such a laugh with the waitress. There is nothing to beat a nice cup of tea, a great atmosphere and a cream tea and you get all that here.

Sandwich was good. Scones so hard, cold and dry to the point when I cut through one of them it just crumbled the other was no better. Cake was very dry too. Incredibly small portions of cream and jam for two scones. I felt embarrassed to ask for any more. It was the first time I had been there for some time but won't be going back.

I have been here so many times over the years with friends and family. Today my son and I went here today and the owner/supervisor could not have been less friendly or less welcoming if she tried. My son was very well behaved and very polite so she had absolutely no cause of reason to be so unpleasant. Given we pulled into Arundel on way back home to specifically feed the ducks and go to Belindas it took the edge off what had been a lovely day out. Will no longer recommend this place, although given the service today I doubt that will be of any concern.
