Bridge Tea Rooms in Wiltshire

20 year Anniversary visit, very over priced. 76 pounds for the high tea. Sandwiches good. Tea luke warm. No complimentary prosecco/champagne Feel a bit robbed 🤨

. Just popped in for coffee and scone as it came recommended but was underwhelmed by interior and expensive prices:- flat white coffee around £5 and a very average small scone at £4.95 Needs a revamp inside to charge those prices and to enhance the charming exterior. Would not visit again

Il tempo..e la pulizia ..si sono fermati al 1600! Locale sporco e trasandato, pessimo servizio, cibo che non ha nulla a che fare con la tradizione del British Afternoon Tea, prezzo esorbitante! In un qualunque bar di una stazione avrebbero fatto meglio! Da evitare se non per fare una foto della facciata esterna.

We chose the tearooms as they are the most well known in the town and have historical significance. We didn't look at the menu before we went in which perhaps we should have done. The cake choices were on the counter so we both chose the chocolate cake and a pot of tea for two. The staff were dressed in old fashioned black and white mop caps and long skirts etc. The lady who looked to be in a charge had quite a stern face and not a particularly welcoming customer manner. We were surprised to find that a service charge was automatically added which then brought the total for two pieces of cake and tea for two was over £24 which we thought was quite expensive for what it was (tea for one person was £5.95!). I wouldn't particularly go back given the cost and very average service. The cake and tea was fine but nothing outstanding.

Never paid so much money for the worst coffee we’ve ever been served. Cappuccino (£4.80) tasted like a ‘normal’ Latte. And the Latte (£4.75) tasted like a cup of milk with a slight coffee taste ! Slice of pretty average chocolate cake was £6.25. A service charge was added to the bill without our knowledge (the waitresses themselves were for the most part friendly and helpful). The total bill was £17.38 for 2 (very poor) coffees and 1 piece of cake. It was the lovely building that lured us in, but we had to pay the price for it!

Such a lovely place , the cakes were simply divine , we were made to feel very welcome , highly recommend the scone with jam & cream also the meringue cake

Lovely staff, but for what you get, compared to Bettys in Yorkshire, it's far too expensive. A piece of cake a sandwich and tea...£25 pp. Silly price.

The worst afternoon tea experience. We organised an afternoon tea for our Aunties 79th birthday. We were a table of 10 which had pre booked for 2pm and pre-ordered our food in advance. We arrived at the tea rooms at 1:54 ready for our booking at 2pm to be told that our table was being used and the people were still eating so we could wait outside in the rain. We waited until 2:02 when other members of the party arrived to be told our table is still not ready and again we could wait outside in the rain or we could wait inside but we would be in the way. We finally were sat at our table at 2:10pm which had not been laid with any cutlery, tea cups or glasses. At 2:45 our tea finally turned up to the table over brewed and disgusting. Our food did not come out until 3:15 which was wrong, dry and some of the cakes were frozen. Some of the party asked for no fish sandwiches so instead they were given grated carrot sandwiches! At 3:20we were told that our table was only till 3:30 but luckily no one had booked after us. We asked for a jug of water three times to come to the table, when it finally came the glasses were dirty. At 3:50 we got the bill which included a £20 service fee and when asking for it to be taking it off the man asked why and rudely said someone else would have to help us pay as we wanted to pay separately and not all together. Absolutely worse experience of an afternoon tea, poor food and despicable service.

Tuesday 30th January 2024, my husband and I were in need of refreshments after walking around Bradford-on-Avon.. We went to ‘The Bridge Victorian Tea Room’ just next to the town bridge. It is a 15th century building and has a very low door, so you have to bend your head on entering. The interior is genuine Victorian with a roaring fire and tables laid with lace table cloths and fine china and waitresses in long black gowns with white aprons. My husband and I were shown to a table and looked at the impressive cake menu. My husband indulged in a slice of frangipani tart with fresh cream and a pot of Assam tea. I indulged in a slice of key lime pie and a latte coffee. We spent a nice hour here and I found inspiration in this wonderful tea room, I wrote a poem called ‘Step In Time’. Afterwards, my husband and I walked back along the river walk back to our car. We will definitely return here again next time we are in the area.

Up from S Devon for 3 nights B&B locally. TA due diligence brought us here for Lunch on Saturday. Managed to park opposite. Superb 'Old skool' Tea Rooms, building from the 1500's. Lovely traditional menu, staff and ambiance attentive and polite. Prices unsurprisingly strong, recommended. A classic English Tea Room.

We visited for lunch and have been here several times, visiting from Cardiff. It always feels like a treat just to be able to sit in this wonderful building and have tea. We had sandwiches, Welsh rarebit, cakes, tea and fizzy water. Our bill was about £60.00. It's fine for that. I don't think it is fair for some of the other reviews to slate the food costs. No, this isn't the cheapest eatery but then go to McDonalds if you feel that way. People can see the menu online and check the prices beforehand. The place is always warm, the cakes are lovely and we have never had a bad lunch there. Lovely experience and we shall return again for another lovely lunch.

We popped in later in the afternoon on the off chance they could squeeze the two of us in. We were seated upstairs at a lovely table, I was snooked and seated into a little nook area, while my hubby was next to the warm radiator! And next to the fire! Sadly the fire was gas!! lol our seats were superb and we were grateful to be given seats when they were so busy and we hadn’t booked on a Saturday! We felt compelled to order a cream tea, due to too many cakes to choose from! lol You know where you are with a cream tea! But then we had to choose our loose leaf tea from 2 pages of teas!!! Our cream tea arrived and we were thrilled to receive one fruit and one plain scone with clotted cream and strawberry jam all presented perfectly! As the hubby can’t eat fruit with savoury (?!), he had my plain scone and I had his fruit scone, so two scones piled with jam and cream went down in no time! This little tea room was just lovely and just what was needed at that point in the day for us!!!! The staff are up n down the stairs? (as there is two floors for customers and a third floor for staff), seeing to their customers. I can’t rate this place enough, everything was just superb, it was a chilly day but inside it was a pleasant temperature. The staff which were mainly female were attentive when needed. Every table was full. We can’t praise ‘The Bridge Tea Rooms’ in Bradford on Avon high enough!

First time trying this cafe. Ordered a panini and a cheese sandwich and 2 lattes. Food was fine, nicely presented with salad. At a cost of £36 though it was very overpriced. There are far better places to visit in Bradford on Avon so we wouldn’t go again.

I was so looking forward to visiting after see lots of pictures on instagram. Booked in for afternoon tea, £24.50 each plus a service charge on top, we got a slice of cake each and 4 finger sandwiches each and a pot of tea with a top up of hot water. Service was most definitely without a smile by the lady that served us. Really not welcoming at all. Having worked in a tearoom myself, I think no matter what you should be welcoming and smiley to customers. Very disappointed as it’s such a beautiful building.

My family visited Bradford on Avon some 10 years ago but didn't get to visit this tea shop so today, my sister and myself went here for a birthday treat. It's a beautiful, quaint building. We opted for just a scone each with a pot of tea for two. Having seen the menu, we expected the bill to be about £15 - £18 .....on requesting the bill, we had to do a double check when we were presented with a bill for nearly £25!!!! What we didn't notice or check, was that even though we had one pot of tea, apparently it 'states' that it's £4.95 PER PERSON for a pot of tea!!!! So almost £10 for 4 small cups of tea......a complete rip off in my eyes. I wish we'd done our homework before going in..... just be aware.

Amazing authentic experience. Beautiful food! Everything had a wow factor . Great menu with lots of choice. The service was amazing too. Warm and cosy inside.

We went to the tea rooms for my wife’s birthday and high hopes. We had heard about their award winning status and thought let’s give it a try being local. The food was very nice. Sadly that’s where it ended. We can only assume that the awards won are for best abusive owner and rip off business practices The tea room is in a lovely old cotswold building and the feel of old England has been kept with 2023 poor practice We were greeted by two lovely young staff with smiles and a third staff member who would crack her face if she attempted to smile. We sat at our table and checked the menu to find 10% service charge on any bill over £10. Every piece of food on the menu is over £10. So it’s a 10% service charge for all then. We ordered our food (Welsh rarebit), so £15 for cheese on toast. Then add onto that your £5 cup of coffee. The food came and as we said it was very nice. Well surely it’s hard to screw up cheese on toast but the business practices here it wouldn’t surprise me if you got a slice of Aldi 20p steamed bread and value cheese. Atleast the bread and cheese was a good quality even if it was 1 large slice of bread. For £15 you would have atleast expected 2. So overall £60 for 2 slices of cheese on toast, a cup of coffee, pot of tea and 2 slices of cake. But now onto the main event. Sat enjoying our food and just the quiet time with no kids to chat over my wife’s birthday and we become aware of a lady stood in the middle with a large wet dog (it was raining outside) Not a practice I am a fan of (letting dogs in restaurants) but sadly one that is becoming more the norm. The table behind us though has the dog practically on their table looking at their food. The gentleman politely asked the dog owner to move it away to which they very harshly scolded they would stand with their dog where they wanted and would not move. The lady sat at the table trying to enjoy her food asked again politely and explained they were not dog owners and did not wish to have a strangers wet dog under their table. The dog owner again fires back they will not move until they go upstairs and continued to stand there. We really did feel for the people trying to enjoy their food and having this rude dog owner giving them abuse But that was not the end of it, the dog owner started going upstairs but then decides to have a 3rd bite at these poor People. They turned and fire “Me and my dog will stand wherever we want, we welcome dogs here and I am the owner”, before turning and walking away So, if you want nice but very expensive food with an automatic 10% service charge, and an owner who enjoys abusing their customers thinking they are an air and grace above everyone else. You found the right place.

It looks quaint from the outside and inside. Novel Victorian dressed staff. Service average. And WAY overpriced.....pot of English breakfast tea for two and one dessert = £18.20. !!!

Brilliant! Fantastic for gluten free customers, plenty of choice. Wonderful toasted sandwiches and heavenly chips, and the best tea I’ve tasted for years!

Quaint building, well thought out decor etc. Staff not very welcoming or helpful. I'm gluten intolerant so chose a GF cake and pot of tea. Unfortunately I had a bad reaction to gluten within an hour. This affects me for 24 hours. I can only assume there was some form of cross contamination. This would have been more serious if I was coeliac. Would certainly not recommend this place to anyone with specific dietary requirements.

Customer service abysmal. Some training required. Received multiple emails asking us to confirm booking, and making it clear that if we were not on time we would lose our table. We arrived a polite 4 minutes early only to be told our table wasn't ready. We were sent out to stand outside in the rain and told to come back in 10 minutes. When we came back our table still wasn't ready because one of the staff had allowed a couple who had arrived without a booking to sit there while a table was prepared for them. Why weren't they made to stand outside and wait? We had boked for afternoon tea. The scones were really dry and were obviously cheaply made or the previous day's leftovers. When we had finished we had to wait 15 minutes to attract a member of staff to clear the table and prepare our bill. While we were waiting one staff member was busy clearing away crockery from the next table while one of the customers was trying to eat from it!! The layout is somewhat cramped which was to be expected but it didn't help that one customer was allowed to let her dog lie on the floor immediately inside the doorway. I would have scored this experience as only one out of five but I gave the extra point for the nostalgia value. We won't be going back.

The real beauty of this place is certainly on the outside , as you go in then it all changes !! The customer service is poor , admittedly it was rather busy , but the look of dread on the waitresses face said it all as we walked in , anyway luckily we sat downstairs as the toilets are basically on the next level placed directly in the middle of where people are sat having there food , when I used the facilities the stench coming out was dreadful , as I was waiting to use the loo I could over hear the diners commenting on how disgusting it was to be sat eating there meals with the smell of someone’s previous visit to the loo !!…anyway the food is mediocre at best and the prices are high for what you get , we certainly won’t be going back.

Was very excited to visit with high hopes of an experience for a birthday. Quaint surroundings but sadly some of the staff looked miserable & appeared rude. Food nice, especially the sandwiches & scone. Large variety of teas to choose from. However, there was no friendly welcome which spoilt our visit & would not rush back.

Lovely quirky tea room perfect for the tourist. Sadly not all the staff are friendly. One lady in particular made us feel like we were an inconvenience. Also noticed her bickering to a Male colleague and also rude to other customers when they entered the tea room. Food is expensive for what you get on a set afternoon tea. Sandwiches were freshly made and very tasty, but the cake was a disappointment out of 3 slices that were ordered by our party. 2 were dry and tasted burnt . We we go back No

l'endroit est d'époque les habits des serveurs aussi l'ambiance aussi les thés, les scones, les pâtisseries sont de bon aloi, le chocolat est moyen (on est au RU) en revanche, les 10% de service sont durs à avaler, car même si la pratique existe encore, rares sont les restaurants à ne pas pratiquer sur service compris : ils sont un des deux seuls commerces en 15 jours à l'avoir fait ! Dommage, ça gâche la digestion.

Es tan bonito, tan tipico y con tanto encanto que no hay que dejar de ir. El servicio es estupendo Y todo está riquísimo . En precio es acorde con el lugar .

We didn’t book, just asked if they had a table free and were shown to a window seat in the downstairs part of the tea-room. It is suggested that if going for something more (lunch, afternoon tea, etc) that a reservation is made in advance to ensure you get a table. The tea-room is easy to find being in the main road through Bradford on Avon, by the bridge over the river Avon, with a public car park (3 hour maximum) available near-by. From the outside this historic stone building (a former blacksmith's cottage dating from 1502) really oozes atmosphere, whilst inside you can lose yourself in a bygone era of Victorian décor with walls covered in old portraits, blue willow crockery and vintage photos. Classical music playing gently in the background, which adds to the serene tone, and the staff are clad in Victorian-style dress, even to the point that the girls wear traditional maid hats! Their menu was good, not overly extensive considering they are open until late afternoon and contains a page of different leaf teas available to order, staff were on hand to give advice if required in this area. The tea came served in beautiful fine china teapots and cups with saucers and being leaf tea you get a strainer. All scones, cakes, sandwiches, etc were apparently made on the premises and feature seasonal and local ingredients where possible. The warm food we ordered was done to order and considered well worth the wait as they were of good quality, well presented to a high standard (compliments to the chef on this), with decent portions being served. I recommend this tea-room, would use it again if visiting the area and considered it good value for money.

Needed to visit the Bridge Tea rooms as my husband lived here in the 1950's when his grandfather (Lailey) was blacksmith in the town. Exceptional place, as soon as you walk in, you feel like you are back in time with all the young ladies dressed in black dresses with white lace aprons and caps. Two floors to the premises, we had the same table upstairs for our 3 visits. Roy, the owner made us feel very welcome and paid special interest to my husbands memories of his childhood here. Our first visit we had lunch, sandwiches freshly made, and not doorstep bread, as you get in a lot of pubs, with either chips or salad or both. I had a prosecco and my husband a beer. 2nd and 3rd time we had breakfast, again the food was excellent, poached eggs, bacon and toast. Also have cream teas with champagne. Would recommend a visit if you are in town, it is very popular and gets very busy. Best to book if your time in the town is limited.

Lovely building and traditionally dressed waitresses, unfortunately this is as special as it got. The food is basic, nothing special. The cream teas looked nice but were expensive. The service was poor, once we ordered, no checking we were ok, no offer of condiments when food arrived, finally about twenty minutes after we finished we were asked if we’d like anything else, my partner ordered a slice of cake…….after half an hour waiting for it we asked for the bill and left- cake-less!…..a service charge was added to bill …..about 10%…..I paid in honesty as couldn’t be bothered with confrontation. Had looked forward to this, so a disappointing afternoon.

Absolutely awful service, pricing and rude manager. The service was awful, nobody came to check it was ok. Was told tea refills were included in afternoon tea, but not a single member of staff asked if we'd like a refill. £4.95 for a pint of flat soft drink that has obviously been poured from a bottle!! Asked to elaborate on menus and was told by the member of staff to just choose one!!! Awful. Such a shame as it has been on a wish list for a long time but will never go back sadly.

Beautiful building, quaintly dressed staff. I had a scone and drink. Scone was very nice, warmed through. Food and drink is slight over priced, soft drinks more expensive than alcoholic ones, which really shouldn’t be the case. Over all it was worth the cost as the scone was really good.

Afternoon tea was lovely. The whole experience was great.lovely place to go to for afternoon tea very nice staff .

Looks lovely from outside and as you’d expect very old inside Waitresses dressed in Victorian dress of which they looked very uncomfortable in Ordered cappuccino and a hot chocolate Husband said cappuccino was fine but chocolate was extremely bitter only way I could drink it...

First of all, the staff are lovely, friendly and helpful. It was nice to to see them dressed up in their white aprons and hats. My husband really enjoyed the loose leaf tea. It seems to be a popular tea room. We both had the...

We have been going to this tea room for years and always loved it. We still do but it's unreasonably OVERPRICED. Two cups of tea and 2 slices of cake costing over £20 it's not justifiable. A light lunch for 3 people including a child...

My daughter and I visited Bradford on Avon for the day and happened upon this charming, historic tea room. We hadn't booked but the manager greeted us warmly and led us upstairs to what I think was the best table in the house (the restaurant...

Its a lovely place but OVERPRICED from the amount of food you will receive. Its not worth it, unfortunately as much us we love the place we will not come back. Management must revisit their menu and pricing! On the picture shown below, its worth...

Came to a very busy Bradford on Avon today, and found this little tea room, very unusual decor, we were sat quickly, and the owner was very good in describing the cakes for us, had coffee and a couple of very enjoyable slices of cake...

These tearooms were the most disappointing aspect of our trip to the South West. Despite the look of the building from the outside, it is very tacky and obviously exists purely to exploit unsuspecting tourists. The loose leaf tea was fine but the cakes left...

Incroyable … fantastique… succulent….!!!! Une plongée dans l’époque de la reine Victoria dans ce lieu chargé d’histoire à la décoration...

Lovely tea rooms, delicious cake & tea and service but with all this in consideration, over £20 for two portions of cake & a pot of tea for 2 was pricey.

What a wonderful treasure is the Bridge Tea Room, in Bradford on Avon. We happened across this lovely place, when looking online for a late lunch. Despite being busy, the staff found us a ground floor table, and the Victorian uniformed waitresses soon took our...

We went there for tea recently. We were tempted by the plum and almond tart. The tea was amazing, proper loose leaf tea with large leaves. I had the decaf which can be insipid but this had a real depth of flavour. We had one...

I can’t say for sure but that may just have been the best sandwich of my life!!!! This charming and delightfully quaint tea room is everything you expect from a tiny cottage and could easily just trade on its looks and charm but just wait...

I took my Aunt for her 94th Birthday Treat yesterday and she/we had the most Wonderful step back in time, Champagne Afternoon Tea! Staff were wonderful and it was a real treat. And just up the road from where she lives in Bradford on Avon

Club sandwich was rather average and pots of tea very expensive, waitress very friendly and polite but otherwise a disappointing experience

Lovely place to go and have been several times in the past, but we were a little shocked at how expensive it has become on our last visit. We had a light lunch but the resulting bill was rather high and to make matters worse...

What a beautiful time I had on my vacation, stopping at The Bridge Tea Rooms. There are two levels; I had a street level spot. I indulged with the Empire High Tea. Everything was delicious! A beautiful display, my hot water re-filled, and a lovely...

Please make sure you check your bill, we were overcharged by approx £20. Also when we asked our server about tips she said they all get shared out within the team, we gave her a tip. She could have informed us that there was a...

A really beautiful old world tea room that is great for a proper treat. It was Mothers day and we opted for the full afternoon tea with prosecco. However it was spoiled by a 'service charge' of £14.99! We understand that in the UK we...

Crooked and bent both on the outside and inside. House from 1502. Charming. Had sandwiches and soup. All excellent, recommended.

Took my parents here on mother's day as a special treat first time vist for us all but thought it looked & sounded nice & won awards however I'm not sure why the food was nice but nothing outstanding we all had the empire high...

We parked near-to, and took a walk from, Avoncliff train station to the Bradford on Avon town-centre. We followed the canal tow path for about a mile-or-so and then down to the River Avon (paved) pathway for the last half-mile-or-so of the walk. This took...

I booked an afternoon tea online a month before our visit. It was just a little treat at the end of a weekend away for my husbands birthday. The downstairs room of this tea room is very crowded with customers standing around you waiting for...

We visited here a couple of days ago after reading about it in a review on Bradford on Avon.Lovely building but poor value for money and surly staff. We ordered tea scones and tea cakes .The scone came up and we all looked and said...

A foggy, cold day in Bradford on Avon saved by this beautiful tea room. Despite not having booked the manager shuffled things around and found us a table. Very pretty Victorian tea room with a large and varied menu and exceptional service. The food is...

Beautiful location-building. Delicious food and attentive staff. You feel like in 15 century. Highly recommended. Thank you for lovely visit. Happy New Year.

This Tea Room was very busy and we were fortunate they were able to fit us in for lunch. The staff were wonderful and accommodating. We even received a little history lesson about the tea room which was great!

Afternoon Tea is difficult for a dairy intolerant and most places for afternoon tea this the choice is very limited, but OMG for once I did not feel I was being an awkward customer! They were knowledgeable and had vegan spread for the sandwiches and...

We love the tea rooms, but have to say the £27 pp charge for the Empire afternoon tea is vastly overpriced. We had 4 tiny finger sandwiches each , 3 small cakes and only one scone each , when generally you would get two. If...

Found this tea-shop after searching for places to eat in Bradford on Avon that had gluten-free options and not disappointed. We visited on a busy Sunday so booked s couple of hours ahead as wished to take a walk along the canal/river. The family-run venue...

Quaint surroundings, nice service. However, both my Welsh Rabbit and my husbands club sandwich were average. In both cases small portions compared with other cafes in the local area. If we return to the area we will not return. Sorry but disappointing!

This place is beautiful and quirky. That is all good about it. We have ordered welsh rarebit and savoury cream tea. Portion was small and good but not the best. the menu state that meal is served with salad - I received one leaf and...

I absolutely love this old fashioned tea room. The girls all wear uniformed aprons which is really quaint. I love to visit for their rather amazing breakfast offering, I feel it is the best in BOA. It is also rather special for cakes, which is...

We had very ice afternoon cream tea here. We booked in advance and had a nice table upstairs for the 3 of us. The tea itself was great, as was the food - various traditional tea sandwiches, scones with jam and clotted cream, etc. The...

Atmosphere was very nice, helped by the staff's uniforms (black pinafore with a white apron, very cute!) Excellent service, scone was delicious as well as home made jam & clotted cream. Drinks excellent, selection of cakes very good.

We're big afternoon tea fans and The Bridge Tea room did not disappoint. Sandwiches could do with more generous fillings but the fresh cream cakes were to die for! Would return for the cakes alone. Hats off to the baker. Definitely worth a visit.

I have visited the tea rooms as a bit of a “go to” destination in BoA given it’s age and traditional exterior which is echoed on the inside. The ambience is generally good with a steady flow of people across the two floors. The younger...

We chose this because of most of the reviews but I have to say we, the 4 of us which included family in from Spain, were very disappointed. We had booked for the high tea so of course they knew how much they had to...

The building looked very charming and old and inside we were not disappointed by the decor. It was all set in Victorian style. We hadn't booked and arrived at lunchtime Saturday but they found us a table upstairs. The waitresses were dressed in Victorian costume...

We stopped by the Bridge Tea Rooms for lunch and although we are always a bit wary of what to expect from ‘twee’ tea rooms in tourist hot spots (see Bath, York, Stratford Upon Avon etc) we had a very enjoyable lunch and the staff...

We couldn’t help but notice the striking architecture of the building as we approached, it has so much charm to it! We were greeted by two friendly ladies who brought us to our table. The interior of the tearoom was just as lovely as the...

A great tea room within a traditional setting. The old look to the building is interesting, with an array of pictures framed throughout and carefully thought out decor - it’s the perfect place to relax for an hour or two. The look/ theme of the...

We visited The Bridges Tearoom today and were delighted! The service was friendly and efficient and the food delicious. The best Darjeeling tea and cheese scone I’ve ever had. My family all enjoyed their meals and we all left very happy. What a dear little...

Real olde worldly tea rooms & staff dressed in attire for the period. Had a full english breakfast which was excellent as were the staff 10/10

Can't praise our afternoon tea enough. Proper scones light perfect with cream and jam. Between me and my friend our allergies and preferences the list can be normally restrictive but here no problem. Can't thank the staff enough. Amazing vegan coffee and walnut cake and...

Disappointed by what I hoped for would be a good experience - it took literally ages to get served and when the food did arrive it clearly had been sitting around for a while, and the scones were clearly several days old. The staff didn't...

The tea rooms look amazing and the interior is very quaint, you really feel as though you have stepped back in time...unfortunately the food and service was lacking... The tables felt very close together and a bit claustrophobic, also they had run out of fruit...

Standard basic afternoon tea, nothing special but very overpriced. We waited for 45 mins for our food and we werent blown away. You’d expect amazing food for their price but nope. The scones were tiny v dry and very crumbly almost like a biscuit. Poor...

Lovely setting but let down by the lack of interest from the staff and very poor food- the sort you would expect from a very basic cafe. The price seems to be set for the wealthy tourists. A simple, small hard scone with basic jam...

We went for afternoon tea and at £20 for 1 person for a few tiny finger sandwiches, a scone and a pot of tea was ridiculous. Plus the food took 40 minutes to arrive. The setting was idyllic and with the staff in the maid...

Beautiful tea rooms, excellent customer service, great decor and food. I would say the sandwiches could be a bit bigger for the price of the afternoon tea!

we booked for a cream tea at 1200 on a Monday.On arrival the waitress looked uncertain about our booking and took us upstairs to a table. after a while there was a distinct whiff from the toilets which were next to our table which got...

Not been here for a while, but it is in an old building just up from the train station in Bradford on Avon Can be extremely busy on a weekend so it is worth doing a booking so you do not miss out on this...

Cute, ancient place (mind your head) on two levels serving traditional breakfasts, lunch, tea and coffee, in the middle of pretty (though traffic-choked) Bradford-on-Avon. Waitresses adorably dressed in Dickens-era attire. Open fire. They very kindly let us order from the breakfast menu, even though we...

The tea rooms are like stepping into a time capsule. There are antiques everywhere and the team are dressed for the occasion. There is a wide variety of tea and you are given a whole pot as well as hot water to keep you topped...
