Earsham Hall Tea Room in South Norfolk

Nothing too much trouble. Catered for our food idiosyncrasies cheerfully. Found us a place even though busy on a chilly day.

Lovely setting, easy parking and savoury scones afternoon tea were a big hit. Dog friendly in the courtyard too. A pity we couldn’t find a dog walk nearby

What a gem of a find Earsham Hall Tearooms was. I wanted somewhere out of the ordinary to have lunch as a surprise for my sister's 70th birthday as we were en route to somewhere else and this was as perfect as it could be. The food was incredible, the service was impeccable, the setting perfect and all the staff were amazing. The banter we had with the staff made the visit and we cannnot recommend this highly enough. We shall definitely return and it can't come soon enough.

Fantastic tea rooms in the most stunning of settings. Food always great and cakes are amazing, served but helpful and friendly staff, always happy to see you, no matter how busy they are. Always a really happy atmosphere where nothing is too much trouble, thank you.

Such a wonderful cafe, warm and wonderfully friendly staff catered for our gluten free needs as well. Amazing atmosphere, freshly cooked food, from the menu or specials board. Today the mushroom stroganoff and macaroni cheese was scrummy. Great value for money you can choose from toasties, sandwiches, soup etc. Cakes selection to die for. Just love this place. You may want to book ahead as it does get busy.

Well, today was an odd one. Called into Earsham Hall for lunch, probably my 4th or 5th visit.There were several tables free. I ordered the special of bacon, sausage and egg bap. I got served a strange sweet brioch roll. Eggs was overcooked, sausages and bacon were tasty. When we went to pay we were handed a card and told we should have booked!! On leaving we were told "Oh, good there are people in the shop waiting for this table". All a bit odd. I'm not sure I'll be going back.

Well, we've been here a few times and didn't think it could get any better!! Really nice welcome, such friendly staff and the service and food was really top notch and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend and will certainly return as it's one of the best in the area!!

A little gem, lovely attentive staff and great food the scones are a must try! Beautiful hall and surroundings and the shop is well worth a look, highly recommend.

We took our aged aunt here today for a birthday afternoon tea and everything about the afternoon was perfect - food, service, ambience and setting. She loved it especially the attention to detail - a candle on the cake. Thank you to everyone for making it such a special occasion.

A delightful afternoon tea with amazing cheese scones, finger sandwiches and cake samples. Our pre birthday surprise

We were attracted by the flyer, and booked in for a Festive afternoon tea. Everything was absolutely marvellous from the room to the staff to the yummy and generous food.

This place is unrecognisable to how it used to be. The setting is beautiful and the shop is of a high standard. Unfortunately once you step foot into the tea room all ambience is lost. Tables are starkly placed around the room with Covid barriers still up creating no atmosphere. It doesn’t feel clean and the marble tables and chairs are just so out of place. Smells of bacon when you walk in which is off putting. Limited menu which is the overpriced for the quality. Just awful compared with the exciting food options available elsewhere locally. Definitely won’t be back unless there are big changes. Suggest the owner visits other stately home tearooms for some inspiration and to get an understanding of the quality that should be on offer.

We booked on an afternoon tour of the hall which was taken by a member of the family. It was fascinating and so informative. It ended with a delicious afternoon tea in the tea room. The portions were very generous, but doggy bags were provided. All in all a most enjoyable afternoon.

What’s the heck has append to this previously lovely place. I cannot believe it has now let itself down so badly. I went there with a group of friends having told them how wonderful it was, only to find the new decor had lost some of its old world charm, and as for the menu or should I say what menu, only a few items on the blackboard and sadly none very appealing. I apologized to my friends and suggested that we leave, but we decided that now we were there we would just make do. So please, please sort out what appears to be a problem here so that once again we can return.

Called here for brunch expecting it to be much the same charting and eater friendly place as when last called. Ordered food and cappuccinos to go with. Possibly the worst coffee we had ever tasted, tepid,weak and watery with undissolved bits of possibly chocolate floating about on the top. Quite horrible.

Hot day and yet all the tables in the courtyard had no sun protection. It was 1pm and yet 2 of the meals we ordered had run out. Service was very slow. The food was ok but the tables and chairs were extremely uncomfortable and felt like they would collapse if you leaned back and I am not fat. Very disappointing

We've been here a few times now and the tea room never disappoints. The food is of a very high standard and the service is extremely good. Jason ( the owner) always has time for a chat. You never feel rushed and you can either sit indoors or outside in the courtyard. Highly recommend

One of our regular places to call in and have the Savoury Scones & Salad. The lady who served us was very polite as all the staff are. The only thing we found a bit disappointing was the savoury scones did not seem to be made the same as when we were last there. Apart from that, nice teas and warm welcome.

As promised Jason one new review.Well so very happy to be back again, and enjoy your usual excellent standard of food, albeit now sitting outside, at least though the sun was shining, and it was warm.Thank you to all of you there. We will be back soon.

Took my two nieces for an afternoon tea, to celebrate a birthday. Certainly not disappointed, everything fresh and delicious.We couldn’t eat it all and were kindly given a bag to put the uneaten items in. The staff were lovely and very attentive, extra drinks , no problem. Beware we will be back!!

Had a fabulous afternoon tea here last week. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, everything very covid safe, yummy sandwiches and cakes which came on individual cake stands. We also had the takeaway curry which was homemade on site and smelt divine-we couldn’t resist!!! It was brilliant and so tasty. Would recommend for afternoon tea, lunch, dinner or a take away if you are local!

First time we have been back since the business has reopened due to CV19!We always enjoy our food and the service plus we sit outside and the tables were very clean and maintained.It was busy but the young lady serving us was very good and quick.

Visited Earsham Hall tearooms this very afternoon.Asked if I wanted to eat inside or out and chose the very pleasant courtyard.After an acceptable wait managed to orderFrom the waiting staff. Very polite and pleasant. Drinks arrived without delay, unlike the sandwiches which may have been waiting for the hens to lay the eggs...waited approx 30 mins by which time drinks were cold!No offer of salt/pepper condiments.However the sandwich was very nice and almost worth the wait.Requested the bill which took a further 20 mins!All in all nice courtyard, nice polite ando helpful staff, very nice food.....the wait....well if you have time...possibly worth the visit!

Food is just super - always. Recommend the eggs Benedict - the best around! Good selection of meals. Great tea. Staff friendly. Thank you

On Saturday we visited for an afternoon tea. There were 6 of us and we all enjoyed the lovely selection of sandwiches cakes & scones.All homemade.

We had the most wonderful lunch here last week. The tomato and basil soup was hot and tasty and the fish pie, delicious. All home cooked to order and the venue and service couldn’t be faulted. Excellent!

We called in for breakfast on Sunday and weren't disappointed.Lovely tea rooms, great location, lots of menu choices all home made including delicious scones and great selection of cakes.It was a busy morning for the TWO members of staff working but they did a marvellous job - service with a smile. They had regular customers in, plus groups of cyclists and were preparing for a Baby Shower event later in the day. They deserve a bonus!!

Pulled in here and wasn’t expecting much, but had a superb home made pie with seasonal vegetables (Brussels sprouts, carrots, potatoes) Pie, pastry, vegetables cooked to perfection. All really fresh. Highly recommend.

We spontaneously booked this one off evening dining experience, having been tempted by the mouth watering menu of a coffee and scone Sunday morning visit a month or so back. We were not disappointed. Fabulous front of house welcome and service, great atmosphere and setting. Food and wine faultless. All very reasonably priced for quality received. Left feeling very full but happy. Only criticism was the uncomfortable chairs. They looked great and in keeping with the environment but hard as.... Finishing on a positive, can only recommend and hope to be back for a future similar event. Thank you Jason and team.

Went to these tearooms with some friends. My first visit however, had been recommended by a friend. It is in a beautiful location on the Earsham Hall estate and the cafe itself is characterful. Very welcoming and pleasant staff. We found relaxed but efficient service and the food was very tasty and well presented. Does get very busy so perhaps best to book - would certainly visit again.

We went here for tea (the day before Mother’s Day), and were given the warmest welcome as well as the most delicious choice of cakes. Sat in a sunny courtyard and could have easily distracted the friendly chef and staff who were lovely to chat to. I happily ate the remainder of my coffee & walnut cake today, as there was no problem in providing a bag to take it home. I’ll be back!

Tearoom that's part of the estate stable block - typical, slightly dour estate architecture but the food and service are a joy. Great for snacks or a light lunch - and some of the best home-made cake you'll find anywhere! Highly recommended

Saw Earsham’s planned roasts online. We went for Roast Beef day today -£16 for two courses. It was delicious. Vegetables were buttery and the gravy was especially tasty. Plates weren’t piled high - it was just enough food to then be able to enjoy desert; rich brownies with a caramel sauce. Jason was a charming, attentive and funny host. We also went for a wander around the show room and bought a few lovely items. A very enjoyable day. Hope to head back soon.

Tour round the lower floor of the hall took about two hours. Many interesting photographs were produced for our group to look at and folk had a lovely time working out who they could spot. This hall has been painstakingly and lovingly restored by the family which owns it and lives in it. Tours available as advertised, especially 'specials' at Christmas etc. The visit would not be complete without sampling some of the wonderful freshly made cakes from the tea room - simply to die for.

It's not got the greatest atmosphere but the cakes are undeniably good. Prices are slightly higher than you'd expect.

Tour round the Hall with Annabell the owner then lunch in the Duke of Cumberland Dining Room truly amazing. Wonderful day. Thank you so much.

Chanced on this place by accident as we were heading home, lovely atmosphere great choice of food and it was delicious. My husband had the home made quiche and salad and I the spicy chicken wrap. The homemade cakes looked amazing, but we refrained. Would recommend. Loved the peacocks too.

Ordered a Black coffee and a Diet Coke. Coffee wasn’t very hot and very weak. Order came to £4.70 very overpriced.

We stopped at Earsham Hall for a quick look and a drink. We popped in the tea rooms and were promptly seated and orders taken. Unfortunately we were not that pleased with the food preparation.

On way home from norwich and decided to stop of at Earsham Hall for a quick look room and a bite to eat. The tea room was packed as it was Sunday Roast day.we were greeted by a very polite front of house who advised that they were full as all tables were reserved. We were starving at this point as the smell of food was delicious. He advised too come back in 10 mins if the party who booked the table didn't arrive we could have it. We wandered off rather hungry and browse the shop not very hopefully we would get to have lunch. As we wandered we then heard the words. 'That table is yours.. the polite front of house had come looking for us. How thoughtful we promptly followed him to the tea room and had a delightful cream tea. 1 savoury and 1 sweet with pot of tea for two. Wonderful atmosphere and polite and friendly staff. Will definitely be returning and will certain recommend. Food was very tasty and very well priced. Thank you

Thank you so much Emily and Jason for making our mini family reunion so special. The food was beautiful and the service second to none. You run a top notch business.

actually we went to Earsham hall on a guided tour with afternoon tea included.The tour was fabulous funny entertaining and very enlightening regards what it actually means to live in a house such as this .Annabel our guide was very knowledgeable and explained such a lot in a very nice manner without overwhelming us with facts and figures.The tea rooms provided a perfect end to a memorable afternoon.Thanks to all concerned.

Earsham Hall Tearooms are in the grounds of Earsham Hall just outside Bungay, Suffolk.

This tea room is an old fashioned reall food cooked while you wait fresh food and is to a hight standard the cakes are really good to , well worth a visit if you're in the area.

We happened on Earlsham Hall while on a longish bike ride, spotted the tea-rooms and cafe sign, and we're so pleased we did. Had some of the best eggs benedict we've had for a long time (they're impressively generous with the hollandaise sauce) and ate them sitting in the sun in the attractive courtyard, close to the craft and gift shop too. Friendly staff, space to relax for a little while, and enough others around to give the place some atmosphere without it feeling crowded. Certainly a place to come back to if we're in the area, and ideal for cyclists!

Teniendo en cuenta lo lleno que estaba hoy nos dieron un asiento fácilmente a las 2 de la tarde y nos sirvieron muy rápidamente. Té sabroso con queso crema, mantequilla, queso y cebolla mermelada incluido Scone una ensalada maravillosa parte fue muy agradable.

Llegamos en la tarde (3 pm) para el almuerzo tarde, aunque normalmente terminar almuerzos en 3, no fue un problema. Siendo gluten me preguntó qué eran mis opciones, que era genial, había algunas cosas en el menú que podría modificarse, pero el cocinero llegó con sugerencias de lo que ella tenía sólo en stock. Me ofrecieron un mezclado con nachos chili bean que registramos fueron como son comprar novia. Mi madre quería una ensalada simple básico, no era problema.

Realmente disfrutamos de nuestra comida en el salón de té. Simplemente perfecto. El personal era muy educado y atento, y la comida era increíblemente fresco. Tuve quiche, patatas y ensalada y mi pareja tenía huevos y no podríamos Royale que ningún defecto. También tuvimos la...

Sirven el mejor café de varias millas a la redonda. Sirven los mejores bollos de una tiza de largo. Casero, grande, y siento decir que mi cintura no es harto de ellos, pero muy sabroso. El entorno es precioso, y muy bien servida.

Este es un lugar muy agradable para visitar un lugar de compras en las tiendas, pero no probamos la sala de té: -

Scones fresh made each day on the premises. Other menu items and daily specials fresh made each day. Friendly staff who will do their best to make your visit pleasant

My friend and i called in last week as we have had some lovely light lunches here. The food is cooked fresh as you order. The staff are friendly and have a laugh and joke with you. My friend had a bacon and poached egg sandwich which she said was the best ever.

We visited for a light birthday lunch and came away well sated. The choice may be small, all from the blackboard - but this is all the better as it is freshly prepared. We chose Eggs Benedict with locally produced bacon - with the best home made Hollandaise I have tasted in a long while, Chicken pie, home made quiche, and ham eggs and crispy thin fries were also thoroughly enjoyed.Pleasantly situated in the courtyard at Earsham hall the cafe/tearoom offers plenty of comfort with helpful and smiling staff.

We often call in when passing and are we are never disappointed. The food is tasty, staff very polite and friendly.

My auntie and family took me here for lunch as they have been before and loved it! The tea room is in a pretty courtyard and is very cosy with high ceiling and numerous tables. We were waited on straight away, highly recommend the hot chocolate! I shared with my cousin the Pesto and mozarella toasted sandwich and the bacon sandwich. Both were incredible and so full of flavour, the bacon was very thick and rich! I tried some of my uncle's Butternut Squash soup which was incredible and very jealous i didn't order! Would highly recommend this to anyone and would re-visit if in area again.

Dined here for lunch on 3 occasions now. Food excellent but the portions we find are a little too small particularly so for the Christmas menu. Staff are lovely and service efficient. Nice outside area to sit when weather permits and the addition of blankets is a nice touch. Certainly intending to return.

Visited hall and decided to have cream tea. Glad we fid as was very good. Will certainly go again some time. Parking no problem.

Had a tasty lunch of sandwiches and a chicken wrap.The sandwich came out with a nice little salad and the wrap with coleslaw and salad.There is a sun trap to sit outside, but a few wasps about.The buildings are interesting and there is a furniture maker there whose shop you can go through, with some really nice pieces.I thought the prices were a little much for a sandwich, but it was tasty lunch.

Visited the tea room on a lovely sunny Sunday afternoon, we decided to sit outside in the courtyard and ordered our cream teas with a choice of jams and marmalade. Service was excellent , staff extremely friendly and helpful, ( we had a wasp problem which was soon dealt with !) Chairs and tables were quite rustic, not very comfortable but ok for our short visit, (could have sat there all afternoon with better seating!) It is a great place to visit and with the pine shop next door a nice way to spend an hour or two wandering about. Scones and tea were first class, we will be back for more!

Nice afternoon tea of scone jam and cream Lots of tea.Good value and quaint little tea room. Lots of rooms to explore with furniture and home items for sale.

This is a really nice cafe in the grounds of Earsham Hall, near Bungay, Suffolk. The hall is quite spectacular and specialises in selling pine furniture and gifts.There are delicious light lunches available. The coffee, scones and cakes are great too.

Have eaten here many times as we live locally. Lovely food - best scones in the area. The hall also has a furniture/gift shop - so you can combine retail therapy with your meal. Will be going again.

This place does a limited selection of hot food at lunchtime, nothing very exciting. My scotch egg was good, but the salad and potato salad with it were a bit ordinary. My partner had cajun chicken in a couple of bits of ciabatta toast, again with salad and wedges - three of them. We weren't expecting a huge meal - but three wedges?

Visited here on sunday 1st May 2016, which was the day of the Classic Vehicle Rally & Country Fayre show. I had previously looked at online menus a few days before hand, however upon entering the tea rooms there was no menus to be found. The cafe was very busy but I managed to ask a staff member where the menus was, and was pointed towards a board with about 6 items on. Very little selection and most of it was hot food, no snacks/toasties/sandwiches except just one. The menu inside did NOT match what is available online. It wasn't clear if the tea room had waitress service or not, or if you had to go to the counter to order. The latter proves difficult for someone who is on their own, as there are only about 6 tables and if you join the long que of people you will likely end up loosing the table... In the end I just decided to get a slice of cake. But this also proved a messy set up - there were several cakes laid out on a table but none were labeled as to what they were, there were no prices, it was unclear on if you just helped yourself and take it to the counter, and I wasn't sure if you could take away or not. So in the end I had to que up to ask all this. Turns out the cakes are £2.20 a slice, you can take away but you can't help yourself, the waitress gets it for you. I had a slice of victoria sponge, it was a fairly big slice and not bad tasting. However, I feel this little tea room could be a lot more successful if it was just a little more organised. I still don't understand why the menus do not match what they advertise online; although from looking at other reviews I am wondering if this problem only occurs on Sundays. If you are not a regular it feels very messy and over whelming. Staff were okay but didn't go out of their way to help or overly friendly. I would give this tea room another chance on a different day as I hope this would just be a one off and possibly due to the demand of people from the show, but going on my experience today I would only rate this average unfortunately.

Visited with my mum for lunch, after normally visiting for savoury tea. It started bad when we walked in, no hello!! We sat down and order was promptly taken, my mums cappuccino came out cold, it was replaced with a (warm cappuccino) with no saucer or spoon or even a sorry, I had a toasted sandwich which was average supermarket bread, no one came to check with the other cappuccino was ok or the food! no lovely bakers bread which we had before. I felt the specials board needed more of a variety, when we last came it had lovely specials such as (spaghetti bolognese, all day breakfast, scotch egg salad, sausagmeat plait) this time I was very disappointed. The staff needs a bit more training as there was only one girl out front and in control not enough when it gets busy, more trained staff needed!

Decided to visit (about the 29 time) with my mum for breakfast, I had a bacon sandwich absolutely delicious and my mum had a eggs Benedict, eggs cooked perfectly and lovely soft muffin. However the staff needs to be more aware of people coming in (as no hello), just not overly friendly. But always lovely food and a range of specials.

Just been to earsham hall tea room for lunch. Wow not much more to say. Fantastic food staff setting atmosphere. A bit of the main road but well worth hunting out just follow the signs. You will love it if you think you've had great scones think again. Stephs are to die for

Invited to join a already full tearooms,with very much just a sausage dinner...BUT WOW where did those sausages come from, really really lovely and cooked to perfection.together with a lovely atmosphere and excellent staff..Whats so nice is the real fresh homemade food cooked by Emily .....You will never hear a DING at these tearooms....

My breakfast burnt baconMy partners pancakes overcooked (rubber) £20 ! Not worth it , poor quality all roundNice surroundingsStaff okBack to basics methinks

An excellent evening out, delicious meal made with first class fresh ingredients perfectly.Great atmosphere too. Looking forward to Pie Night in January.Can recommend Earsham Hall Tearooms for breakfast and lunch, lovely Eggs Benedict with bacon and amazing coffee. Best scones ever.

Our favourite eggs benedict…superb location, and lovely freshly prepared food. The afternoon tea following the tour of the hall was wonderful.

Came for lunch with my mum, the tea-rooms is very friendly, lovely staff and a lovely atmosphere, quick service. The food is homemade and very tasty, the specials board has a range of specials (scotch egg is very delicious)

I haven't had a ploughmans lunch in ages so I chose this from the menu, my daughter had the quiche. All prices on the menu and boards were very reasonable. The order was taken by a charming young man who was very attentive. The food was quickly served and we were quite amazed at the portion sizes and the presentation. There were four different types of cheese on my order with three different choices of accompaniment. Having enjoyed our meal I was offered a bag to take any cheese home which I couldn't finish. A lovely experience which we followed by a tour around the very interesting shopping area. Goods appeared to be handmade and were quite unique.

We ate here when it was an evening where starters and sweets only were served. Four excellent starters were followed by three really delicious sweets. It was certainly an evening with a difference. We are looking forward to having a lunch there soon. If the food is as good as the other evening, then lunch is something to really look forward to.

A wonderful surprise of a place. We could have sat there all day eating. A beautiful setting. Great homemade food nd the staff were very nice too!

Ordered gammon sandwich with whole grain mustard and granary bread, accompanied by homemade coleslaw, salad and crisps, mammoth meal in itself and pot of tea. There were other things on the menu which I will try next time.

Me and my husband came here for a full English on sunday, we had to book but that wasn't a problem for us. I'm not sure if this is available if not pre booked so bear this in mind. Our breakfasts were served piping hot which was a good start, I had poached egg which was cooked to perfection and my husband had scrambled egg which again was lovely. The sausage and bacon were both of a high quality and the mushrooms, tomato and beans were equally as yummy! I would have to say that this was by far the nicest cooked breakfast that we have had in a very long time. The young girl out front was very polite and all in all this was a extremely pleasant experience, which i am sure will be repeated!

We called in for coffee while visiting the lovely homeware and furniture show room. However, the staff in the tearoom seemed happier chatting to each other rather than greeting and seating clients. We weren't sure if we had to seat ourselves or order at the counter and it was difficult to get attention to solve our dilemma. Once we were settled, the cheese and fruit scones were great, probably nicest ever. But helpful if cakes etc were listed and priced on a menu rather than being displayed at the counter and elsewhere for selection. Another gripe was that it was almost impossible to get information re their full afternoon teas - eventually we were able to speak to the (apparently) one member of staff who could help us, but some written information on the tables with the menus (or some staff training) would have made the exercise less convoluted and I must say, less frustrating. We were interested in booking afternoon tea for a small group of friends, but are a little reluctant after this experience.

Absolutely amazing, the scones taste amazing and are nearly as big as your head. The tearoom itself it's beautiful, run by a lovely couple.

Always a pleasure to visit - good food and drink, and charming and friendly staff, in a pleasant atmosphere.

Interesting place to visit, take a look around the Earsham Hall pine showrooms and then take a tea or coffee and a light lunch at the cafe. New owners have brought a very fresh feel to the place. Coffee cake quite nice.Worth a detour just to drive up to the amazing house to stop a while in this interesting café.

School hols and bored child. Let's go to the tea rooms for home made soup and sarnie a and his favourite sausage a nod caramelised onion roll. Greatly disappointed to find no longer my favourite foods. I had a lovely salad however which was very tasty and varied but oh how I missed my comfort food. Lovely staff.

The standard of food at the tearooms is exceptional. The food is freshly cooked with a variable menu and the service is excellent. Once a month they do a special dinner menu which is very good value.

Having been here with my family for breakfast and , indeed for a " pie night " I would recommend highly . Food is cooked to order so fresh and tasty every time , specials board is varied and cake selection to die for . The scones are freshly baked and enormous , delicious and fluffy . Staff are friendly and efficient . All in all a light relaxing atmosphere with friendly welcoming staff .

We went to Earsham hall to look at furniture. We decided to have a drink and bite to eat while we were deciding on which bit of furniture we wanted. We are glad we did!The tea room is bright and airy.. It has a good menu with a board for specials. The staff were lovely, friendly and attentive. You do have to wait for your food but it is done as you order, not pre prepared. The delightful thing is they do not make you have all the

This was the first visit for lunch since the new owners have taken over, the decor is much nicer now especially the seating area outside. We did Ladies that lunch! we said we would like a coffee first and than order lunch later, which was no problem. We all ordered the Roasted Vegetable Lasagna, they apologized as it was still in the oven and may be a little time, which was no problem as it gave us more chatting time!! It was worth waiting for as it was delicious. The staff are very friendly especially the owner, will definitely be going back.

I love visiting Earsham Hall Pine warehouse/shop. Afterwards we usually have a meal or a snack in the Tea Rooms. Results have been quite variable. The daily specials are the best thing on offer,followed by the cake selection. It's the service which changes so much. One of my main complaints though has been cold plates and hot food. The problem could be staff training or cramped cooking space.

What a transformation! Such a relaxing ambience, very tasteful decor and art and easy listening music and to top it all wonderful coffee in proper China and lovely light cake. Service with a happy smile too. Well done and highly recommended

Got fitted in at the last minute for a friend's birthday; food was plentiful and fresh, lovely tea in China cups and very friendly service.They have a new fan, will be back!

I had a lovely afternoon tea with a friend. Lovely fresh tea, cakes and scone and nice bread for sandwiches. Very enjoyable and great value.

Very nice, clean as well as good service. Didn't have to wait long for what we ordered. We will be visiting it again next year.

My Mother, sister and I have started visiting the properties in the "Invitation to View" brochure with Earsham Hall being one of them. These are dwellings not open to the public normally but are usually open once a month by invitation! (Google Invitation to View for more information) We were warmly greeted by the owner, Annabell, who gave us a 2 hour very informed history and tour of the building before we were led into the tea rooms where we were greeted by Jill who served all 21 of us a delicious afternoon tea which included ham and cream cheese sandwiches accompanied by a salad garnish and fruit scones with butter, jam and cream - divine - all in a wonderful setting! Jill has now included her Christmas menu on her web site, which will also be available in the evening, and informed us of the Christmas market which she has organised at the hall for the last ten years is to be on Wednesday 3rd December from 6.00 pm. This is definitely worth a visit as lots of the outer buildings of the hall are crammed full with delightful items to purchase. Well done to the family for working so hard to keep the building by diversifying in various ways.

I have visited Earsham Hall Tearooms many times and the food is always good. Anything that comes with their gorgeous fruity salad is particularly good. Service is a bit slow at the moment but this is a temporary issue due to maternity leave. The wait is worth it. Sandwiches are always full of filling.

I haven't been to the tea room for many years, having moved away from the area, but as I had always been consistently impressed by the quality of the food and friendly helpful staff here, I decided to take my parents today for morning coffee. We were very disappointed with the choice and quality of food. We arrived half an hour after opening but there were no fresh scones or fresh cakes - what we did have was dry. Would not recommend to friends - although from previous reviews it looks like this may be a problem mainly on Sundays.

Having been to the tea rooms some years ago and always having had exceptional food and service we were shocked by the tea room. We went on a Sunday, late morning and there was only one other family there which should have been an indication as it was always full before. There was no menu on the tables, nothing on boards and the waitress said there were bacon, egg or sausages available in a bap. With little option that it what we went for along with cups of tea. The bacon bap was awful ... the bread roll was the cheapest type of roll available from supermarkets with a sparse amount of bacon in it, not good at all. The tea was a run of the mill cheap leaf tea, nothing exceptional.We were disappointed to say the least and that was overtook with shock when we went to pay. Since we had not received a menu or any form of price list even for drinks, I think my husbands mouth hit the floor when we got the bill.The sign says they do Sunday lunches but when leaving at noon nothing like that was prepared and the tea room was empty.

Sitting in the courtyard outside this lovely cafe in Earsham Hall, near Bungay you could be anywhere in the world. Expect a warm friendly welcome every time and lovely homemade lunches and cakes.Then after lunch have a slow walk around the adjoining shop to find that gift that you won't find elsewhere.Highly recommended.

Been to the Earsham Tea rooms on several occasions,lovely scones, light lunches etc. They have occasional evening openings, cant comment as haven't been. Would recommend if you are in the area, visiting Bungay and surrounding towns and villages. Nice showroom to visit.

great service, food is always good and consistant , sunday breakfast is good , not cheap but great local ingredients are used.tea and cakes are excellent as are the cheese scones. if you fancy tea and cake or lunch/ breakfast they do both very well

I came with my wife and my little girl and despite some noice she made, the stuff was very friendly and helpful, good quality, delicious and original food, from the salad we had, the main order and the cakes, we were there in winter as well and it was also a warm place to share some quality time with your partner or small family.

This may be off the beaten track but well worth a visit, they do the best scones around even beating my beloved John Lewis (Norwich) ones. There is an excellent choice of light lunches which change on a regular basis and then the normal selection of sandwiches etc. The dinning area is warm and cosy in the winter and there is out door seating for the summer. I love this place so go and try it!
