We popped in today for a cream tea, we wanted somewhere cosy and welcoming for our children's first cream tea experience. We were not disappointed. The owners were extremely friendly, service and food amazing. We definitely recommend.

We came across this twee little tea room when we were visiting & walking round Poole... I spotted sign saying tea room & a little what looked like a narrow walkway through a open door... We were greeted with very friendly staff & small seating area which was twee & very inviting. Comfy seats. Unfortunately it was raining hard so didn't sit outside. Husband had cake & I had scone which were Delicious. Coffee's great too.. Lovely atmosphere.

Wonderful place to stop for tea and cake. Slightly away from the quay, but we’ll worth it. It is so nice to visit a tea shop which isn’t run by some large chain and has staff who really care about the food, the drinks and the customers. It was sparkling clean and the food was good. W will be back.

A little gem of a cafe, tucked down a narrow alleyway in Poole's old town. You could easily miss it - look out for the sign up high that says Tea Rooms. There are a few different places to sit, 2 tables by the kitchen, the courtyard and the Snug which has 4 separate tables. There is an array of delicious looking cakes - we had a Dorset Apple and Chocolate Brownie, warmed up with a choice of ice cream or clotted cream. Yum! This cafe is only a 5 minute walk from the Quay but the prices are much better. I look forward to visiting again next time I'm in Poole.

Incredible little tea room. Qaint and comfortable. The staff are super friendly, and welcome you like they are welcoming you into their home. We had cream tea and the scones were lovely! Would definitely recommend. It's quite small so in busy times you will struggle to get a table, but they did have an outside courtyard with seating. The front door is easily missed so keep a keen eye open when you're looking for it. It's literally a single entrance door in a parade of shops that walks you into the tea Room at the back.
