Came to the cafe for afternoon tea. There were 12 of us and the food was served on a wooden board. There were two finger sandwiches each. One cheese and ham and one avocado and pepper and a tiny piece of bruschetta with tomato and onion. We then had 3 tiny pieces of cake. Carrot cake raspberry brownie and a Bakewell cake this was followed by a scone cream and jam. I was very disappointed as we were never asked if we needed anything and had to ask for a drink. As there were 12 of us by the time the food board got to our end of the table there were only avocado and pepper sandwiches on the board which I don’t like the same happened with the desserts so I left still feeling hungry. We all felt the cost of £17.50 was overpriced for what we received. It’s very difficult when you are dining with people that you don’t know well so I feel that it would have been better to do individual plates so that everyone gets a plate of food instead of being left with what’s left on the board.

Great place to take doggies. Went to the garden centre while in Clacton on a holiday break and found this cafe next door. We didn't have a table booked but was welcomed so nicely and our doggies were also welcomed letting our precious little girls sit on our laps as they are tiny chuiahua s that find the floor scary .Lovely coffee and food even biscuits were offered on a plate to our doggies .Great place lovely staff Great food and atmosphere dog friendly above and beyond allowing our babies to sit in the warm instead of been left outside in the cold like alot of so called dog friendly places .A must visit if like us your dogs are your children can t praise highly enough thank you.Blue Garden cafe

Went into Blue garden cafe with my family. Food was splendid and was really enjoying it but we kept being rudely interrupted by one of the members of staff. I asked one of the nicer staff members for his name and they said it was Henry. He was very intimidating and made our meal quite stressful. Surely it is not so difficult to be polite to your paying customers! I will not be recommending this to my friends and family which is such a shame as the food was very nice.

Food was tasty but not 5*. Our initial server was great. He was super friendly and was obviously trying hard to make our experience enjoyable. We sat for a good 90min after we finished our food, chatting, and were never offered another drink. When we asked , we got , but were surprised that we weren't offered. Upselling opportunity right there 🙂. This place was busy but not too noisy and there is lots of natural light. Nice place overall.

Enjoyed a really lovely meal here for bank holiday weekend. I had the eggs and salmon on sourdough which was amazing and my husband had a brunch cob which he said was delicious. Great atmosphere and lovely garden, we'll definitely be back 😁 one small thing, a member of staff called 'Harry' wandering around the outside area chastising people who had vapes (on the table, not using them) wasn't the friendliest. We can see the signs that are around so maybe don't go round barking orders at paying patrons.

Having looked at reviews I booked a table. When we arrived at 1.30 the restaurant was less than half full. It took 10 minutes or so for a server to take order and then around 40 minutes for our food to arrive. Other guests waited and were seen to complain. Tables were not cleared when staff walked by and no-one asked anyone for more drinks. Cutlery was not on the table. When we left after a nice lunch the young lady said they were understaffed. Perhaps it would be better to tell guests upon arrival to manage expectations. We will go again as the food is very nice and a pleasant environment

Second time here and was very disappointed. Extremely slow service and had to keep asking for service which came after sitting at an empty table for 40 minutes. When the meal eventually came, the coffee had no sugar or spoon, and we had no knives and forks, all of which I had to go and get myself. My table was not clean or was it cleaned for me. The empty table next to me still had the finished plates of food and drinks from the previous customers that were not cleared throughout the whole time I was there. My Panini stuck to the plate so had to use a knife and fork to eat. The staff were unenthusiastic and not very friendly. It wasn’t too busy and I saw staff hanging around doing nothing, so there was no excuse. Shame because I have recommended this place after my first visit.

Usually food ok..booked for lunch. Had 30 minute wait..another table arrived after us was served first. Not happy. When food did arrive my pie was upside down..have had a pie here before this was not right.! Was quite hungry having a long wait but upon turning pie over was very burnt!! Bad enough the time wait but to try to hide the burnt pie was very sneaky and underhand. Other pies came out right way up! Food wasnt that great this time but to hide a burnt pie rather than bin it and do again. Possibly if waitress came out and explained and apologised..perhaps offered a free drink..may have been pacified...It was heaving..but no excuse..worse to hide the burnt pie and hope u didnt notice. Complained..they took 10% of bill...was this fair..nothing i could do. Id waited long enough for my lunch..left remnants of burnt crust couldnt eat. Would i go again? Not sure..can you trust a kitchen that hides mistakes???

We booked a table in advance. When we turned up was just told to go and sit anywhere. We went and sat down and waited to be served. We had been waiting a while when another group came in, got taken to their table and asked what drinks they wanted. They then got their drinks and their food order had been taken also. We sat there another 10 mins and still no one had come over to us. It wasn't even very busy in there so no excuse for bad service. We left after about 25 mins of waiting. Will not be returning.

I have been here several times, but did not enjoy my last visit. The food was not up to standard. The eggs and mushrooms were cold, bacon was over cooked and tea was so weak. The staff were pleasant even though they were clearly under staffed. Was really put off by the number of dogs in the premises, especially as one guest had his dog on his lap. Not too sure that I will want to revisit.

Went to this establishment on Sunday 11th May with my daughter and mum we had pre booked when these establishments have as many covers as the blue cafe does when fully occupied they will always struggle from producing quality service to presenting high quality food if they are going to run a Sunday breakfast with a fully booked restaurant they should reduce what’s on the menu and have a cut of point so they can get ready for a busy Sunday lunch also they need a very confident front of house manager as customers were coming in there was no one explaining to customers how long the wait would be the food we ordered took 45 minutes at least to come out I don’t mind the wait as long the food is served hot and fresh my bacon was cold and hard eggs warm toast rock hard the bowl stroke plate what come with the food was very difficult to cut your food my daughter Spanish breakfast was really nice this establishment as got to realise they are not a back street cafe they are charging quite a good price for there food either cut the covers down when fully booked or cut the menu down and they really need a experience front of house I’ve eaten in this establishment before and it’s been a lot better the staff was trying really hard but no one guiding them

Just had a very disappointing Sunday lunch at the Blue Garden. Waited at least 45 minutes, after ordering, for our food. My husband’s all day breakfast was ok - nothing special. My Cajun chicken burger was almost inedible. Curled up, overcooked, dry and tough. The chips served with it weren’t much better. I ate a small amount of it and passed my comments to the waitress when she came to clear the table. I presumed she would pass these on to the kitchen. She didn’t bother to come back to me so we paid and left, deciding we wouldn’t wait for dessert. I don’t like writing reviews, I much prefer to make my comments, usually good, to the staff in eating places. However, as these were ignored I felt I should comment. Won’t be going back in a hurry.

What a beautiful cafe to attend our friends Christening. Absolutely gorgeous food and the quality of the cake was amazing for how much they charged also! Great value for money and it’s like a conservatory setting so it’s so warm and cosy even when it’s raining and cold outside. The only negative which I won’t down rate them at all was the back door was very heavy to open and I had a 2 year old who was wanting to go back and forth in the gardens but I’m sure that will most likely be down to fire safety possibly :)

I had heard a lot of good experiences about this Tearoom since it opened and thought I would give it a visit with my elderly mum in her wheelchair. The door entrance is a push button with easy access for pushchairs, wheelchair and electric chair users. The atmosphere is very calming and inviting with large areas of glass and double glazed doors to a patio area and we could see the area to the garden centre. We were approached with a smile and asked to sit anywhere there wasn't a reserve table notice on it. Not one to sit right in the middle of the room we chose a table on the far wall, where it was not imposing on other customer sitting. We took a few moments to get settled and looked over the menu and after about 5 min we were approached and asked if we were ready to order, this did not delay and I tried the best Capaccino I had tasted ever. We ordered breakfast which came on flat round plates that I never expected but the food was immensely enjoyable and filling, the staff were really friendly and the costs was reasonable for what we ate I would definitely recommend Bluebird Tearooms for a visit. One more thing the matching chairs are oddly set out but it does give the room a talking point!

I was disappointed with my visit today. The table where I was going to sit was not cleared. Once cleared it took 10 minutes before I got a menu. My all day breakfast took around 20 mins. The baked beans were cold and I asked them to be reheated, they came back luke warm. There were two tables near me who had just finished when I sat down. Their tables were not cleared all the time I was there. When I went to pay, one of the servers were getting some drinks ready on a tray to be served - the tray they were taking them on had a coffee spillage on it. This should have been wiped! Very disappointing visit today

Have been before and this time had gift vouchers from our eldest and his partner. Nice and airy venue, plenty of tables we'll set out. Very friendly staff. You can book a table online but we took the risk of just turning up. No problem and were immediately shown to a table. We both had the club sandwich with fries and salad. Excellent choice we thought. It was delicious. The only minus point is that as the restaurant filled up, the noise levels increased but we realise that is going to happen given the high vaulted ceiling. Was enjoyable even so. Thanks to all staff. We will return. Nicely situated next to the Garden centre so makes a nice visit.

My friend and I have been eating here for a while now and although the staff are very friendly, unfortunately the quality of the food and drink has seriously gone down hill. Yesterday the tea was cold, apparently the urn hadn't been switched on ! We both ordered fried eggs on toast. Well they came up and went straight back. The eggs were lukewarm and rubbery and the toast was cold. This has been happening a lot recently. Lukewarm breakfasts, rubbery bacon and eggs are not cooked correctly. It appears management no longer seems to care too much. This is such a shame as the staff are so lovely and are the ones that have to deal with all the complaints. Unfortunately myself and Jax won't be back

This cafe is one of the most friendliest, comfortable, inclusive, affordable cafe’s in Clacton. The staff are so welcoming, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. It has a great choice of food, drink and cakes on offer, an easy to read menu which offers a good price range. The environment is light and relaxing and I have never felt rushed. Inside in the winter it’s lovely and cosy and outside in the warmer months it’s alfresco dining. Lastly I want to give a special thank you to Jess Harper whose hard work makes the Blue Garden Cafe, the lovely place it is. It should be called the ‘Happy Garden Cafe’.

The staff are absolutely lovely, very friendly and patient, but service can be a little on the slow side. I have visited the Blue Garden Cafe several times, and found the food to be consistently good - just one time when the food has obviously...

Afternoon tea was not good. The tea was not hot firstly. The sandwiches were far too big and not delicate at all. The sausage roll tasted ok, but was too big. The scone was huge but overcooked and very dry. The custard pastry was burnt...

Been here a few times and it's been brilliant wish we had one in Derbyshire and the icing on the cake dog friendly. I think the hospitality industry could learn a lot from this place.

We had a nice lunch but we were disappointed to find you had no gluten free cakes for my friend. Could you please make sure you have at least a couple of options to choose from in future.

Fantastic food as always. We had a Blue Garden breakfast, which was lovely, and pancakes with banana, salted caramel sauce and crunchy walnuts, big portion (sadly unable to finish it all). The only very small criticism is there could have been a little more caramel...

I’ve been to this cafe a few times and can’t complain about the food as is always lovely. This time however the service was disappointing. A lot of staff lingering around and not one really knew what they were doing. One member tried to take...

Buzzing place. Awesome chicken burger, super tasty crust on the fillet, and crispy skin-on fries 🔥- the only room for improvement would be the sauce and extras in the burger. Great place and lovely people.
