Eliza's Tea Rooms in Waverley

Stopped off for a late breakfast - good coffee and bacon sandwiches. Have had a good lunch there in the past

I regularly stop off for a freshly made sandwich to take away. Everything is made fresh following the order and is just superb. I love a sandwich at lunchtime and I have never been able to buy one in the area that is anywhere close to the quality of this little tea room. The staff are charming and efficient. As close to perfection as one can get! If in any doubt try the coronation chicken. Brilliant. They also have a fantastic selection of very interesting ice creams. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

So lovely to walk into a tea shop, be welcomed by the staff, be served lovely food and afternoon teas.

Two things stop me giving it 5 stars. The price differential between takeaway and sit in is ridiculous. £3,95 to take away, £8.25 to have in. You get a place, a handful of crisps and a bit of salad but that does not justify double the price. Get rid of the salad and crisps and charge a reasonable price and I would be tempted. The second things is the cups, they are so thick it is hard to actually drink out of them without spilling liquid down yourself. Bar these two things the palce would be amaze balls.

Have been visiting for years. Extremely disappointed with a limited selection of food, no vegetarian or vegan.No longer using lose leaf tea!used to be amazing teas. Toasted sandwiches,now horrible. I had s brie & cranberry, mostly ring too much cranberry, soggy inside & the bread was not the previous quality & burnt. Price up from £6.95 to £7.75 suffered cronic indigestion - won't go back overpriced

Worth paying a little more for, high quality,bacon sandwiches and a huge cake slice! Friendly staff too

We are locals and went to Eliza's just before the lock down. The service was terrible even though only two tables were busy (including ours). It was only 3:50pm so not near closure time. We waited for more than 30 minutes to get our four hot chocolates for the children and two coffees. And when we got them, the hot chocolates were lukewarm, so we had to ask them to heat the up. Not the service you would imagine from a nearly empty place. We have not tried again after the lock down, so they might have improved.

Visiting my parents in Milford I met my mum here for a coffee. We were lucky and got the last table. Just ordered coffees, which were delicious. Considering how busy they were, there was no delay in ordering or receiving our drinks. Friendly staff.

It's so good to come back to a lovely place for tea and a bite to eat. The staff is pleasant and welcoming. The furniture is nice and authentic wooden style. There is a lot of people that come here to chat and relax in the very comfortable experience. There is also wifi available. There was a few lovely cakes on offer which looked very nice. It's a good place to come for a chat a rest after buying great farmhouses food and perhaps some wine.

Have been here a number of times and we have never been disappointed. The scrambled eggs and the cheese scone are excellent. Good service and no too expensive

The young staff were lovely and helpful, but no dishes on the menu were vegan, and none of the lovely looking cakes on display were vegan either. The only vegan item they could offer was a teacake, toasted, but dry, as they only had butter, and not even a vegetable spread.

Food was very nice with plenty of options. Prices were mid range but one dish each was enough to fill us up. No seating inside but plenty outside. Grab a table, look at the menu and then order at the counter. Friendly helpful staff.

Great tasting food. Good choice on the menu. Lovely fresh cakes. Country style cafe with outdoor seating and table service. Nice place to have a relaxing breakfast or lunch.

This is a great cafe for lunch as you shop in beautiful Secrett’s. Nice deli menu, flavoursome dishes and lovely service.. absolutely everything on the menu looked delicious, and what we had didn’t disappoint.

Wonderful little tea shop with a great range of cakes and tea. The cakes were particularly delicious and will definitely be back to sample more!

Really comfortable place to have coffee, tea, cake, scones or proper plates of food.... Reasonable prices - Excellent Value for Money.

Visited for breakfast today, lovely local produce, well cooked and good value for money. Attentive and friendly service, will definitely return.

Visited here twice and both times have asked for toast to be well done but don’t seem to be able to follow a simple request. When I said can you please cook a bit more the waitress rolled her eyes. Won’t return or recommend .

I've been here now the last two Fridays and it looks like it will be a regular occurence, last week I had the best cottage pie and yesterday the biggest bacon roll, everything is cooked freshly and portions are good. The place is busy but I've always found a table, the staff are very helpful and friendly, the cakes and cupcakes are delicious

I come here with my wife three or four times a year for lunch. We always have the home made Lasagne and salad. It is extremely good. There isn’t much choice of main courses generally because it is more a place for sandwiches and light snacks. They normally have a quiche option but generally it’s a flavour we don’t fancy so we always end up having the Lasagne. We thoroughly recommend it.

One good reason for visiting the excellent farm shop at Secretts (with its huge range of perfect cheeses and endless foodie temptations) is Eliza's. This old tea room provides all the trimmings for a good gossip. If you want to know about local Midsomer Murders plots or the vicar's dark past this is the place to indulge your indiscretions. Meanwhile you can enjoy reliable home-cooked fare for any time of day. You'll enjoy sharing Secretts.

No veggie option for the cooked breakfast. Fine, that's up to the restaurant, no beef there (well...) especially given I'm not even veggie. But when I asked to sub the bacon and sausages for mushroom and smoked salmon I was first told 'I'll have to check' (why? it's not a ready meal where the constituent parts are inextricably linked, just change the items man) then told I'd have to pay for the extras. Hmmm. So I'd pay for something I'm not having? Superb idea. I didn't fancy pointing out the stupidity of this because it was a Sunday and I just wanted to switch off. So I ordered poached eggs. After a half hour wait, I received 2 meagre poached eggs. I'm pretty sure I've seen Haribo fried eggs bigger than this. Tasted bland. No effort on the garnish front. I'm not one for random sprigs of plants on my grub but this looked so sad that I reckon decaying maple leaf would have improved proceedings. No sauce. And it cost £5.50 and took about a half hour to arrive. Wish I'd listened to the alarm bells that went off when they said they'd have to check to trade sausages for salmon. I gave them a chance and I regret it. Disappointing. I say all this as someone who ran a cafe. And when you consider that Wetherspoons' Brockley Barge is one of my favourite pubs so my standards really aren't that of your typical Surrey-dweller.

Seems like a popular place for breakfast and the environment is fairly chilled. However, cakes are average but pricey. Hot chocolate is good - rich and creamy.

A very pleasant place to go out to lunch with friends or just simply enjoy a cup of tea. Delicious cakes!

My elderly parents have been visiting here for some time and quite frequently 2-3 times a week. They have recently changed their menu so you cannot have eggs on toast during the lunchtime period which my mother has had many times in the past, hence the frequency of their visits, however if you're a child under 10 you can! When I asked why there were no smaller portions for the elderly I was barked at and over talked by the lady manager who approached us aggressively, no compassion and totally disinterested quoting, "we are an independent so we can do what we like, we are losing money on the children's menu" !!! When I asked again why there were no smaller options for the elderly she barked back at me, "we can do half a soup half a sandwich" ....... I advised this was not on the menu and again she over talked me!!!! As they are elderly I found her approach and manner towards them and the situation totally unnecessary and very unprofessional.....they did not and nor did I, need a lecture and what felt like a telling off. As a Customer Service expert I found her customer service skills totally off. No need to be so brash and over powering. Even when I said that if they couldn't accommodate then my parents would have to go elsewhere she wasn't concerned and said "fine" !!!

We were on our way to an evening wedding do and looked for an afternoon tea on route. You have to book for an afternoon tea which I hadn't realised. We ordered salad and cake though and it was absolutely delicious :)

Nice to walk into the Tearoom and receive a warm welcome, while being shown to your seat. The Tearoom is light and airy but the tables are quite close together and it's a bit of a squeeze between occupied tables. The staff are very friendly, helpful and efficient. There is quite an extensive lunch and tea menu; the food looked and smelled good. The bacon butty, made with crisp, streaky bacon was excellent - one of the best ever.

Really friendly staff. Fabulous food and atmosphere, very reasonable prices as well.My treat when I've finished my housework! Highly recommended.

Located on the Secretts Farm Estate, it's an independent, family run daytime deli & café. Good place to dive in whilst the traffic eases on the A3 to Guildford. Very nice staff and a decent menu with low carb breakfast option, home made cakes (including GF), nice teapots....and scrumptious scones baked every morning.

Went for breakfast on Saturday. We were not the easiest customers, asked for things to be taken off our breakfast, then added extra sausages (sausages were really nice), asked for one to have well cooked eggs, one soft eggs (yup they got this perfect)…..brown toast, white toast, even I got confused!

I've been to Eliza's a few times, usually for breakfast. For me it's great, it offers a low carb breakfast and cream for my coffee. We've never been disappointed with the food, not the cheapest around but I prefer to pay a little more for quality rather than cheap.

We often go to this lovey coffee shop as the coffee is GREAT also the polite attentive service we have also eaten many items on the menu. All the food is well cooked and the cakes and pastries are fresh and delicious . It sometimes gets very busy with all the tables in use which says I’m not alone in appreciating this little Gem in Surrey.

Had breakfast here a while ago and was impressed. Returned for lunch yesterday with my wife. We both had the Lasagne and side salad and enjoyed it. My wife said she couldn’t remember having a better one. We will return soon.

Saw the advertising sign for the restaurant / café as we sailed past but about-turned and made a visit. It's just off the side road opposite the village hall and is part of Secretts Garden Centre & PYO. A huge car park and Milford had a dearth of places other than pubs, so a good find

Nice little pot of tea, a small for one orange juice bottle and an Eliza’s breakfast although hold the egg.

Reasonably priced, with good home made cooking. Attentive staff. Good range of cakes etc. I recommend their bacon sandwiches. Well worth a visit.

I love this little place. Eliza's serves one of the best full English breakfasts I have ever eaten. Both the quality of the ingredients and the cooking of them are excellent. The 'Black Barn' sausages are superb quality as is the bacon and it makes a refreshing change to have properly cooked mushrooms. The mushrooms have colour from the caramelisation caused by the correct cooking process which gives them a beautiful flavour. Every ingredient on the plate is good quality and is consistently cooked beautifully all served by staff who are warm and cheerful.

Having just moved to the area, I've been trying out new places to eat over the last month and Eliza's Tea Rooms is by far my favourite. Very friendly staff, lovely food and absolute delight from start to finish.

We stopped here for a coffee and scones - both of them tasted great. I had the cream tea and...

We pop in here from time to time and like the place. Independent business so flexible and no fuss slightly...

Having visited numerous times in the past I was sorely disappointed to discover incredibly poor table service (25 minute wait)...

The cafe is bright, clean and welcoming & despite how busy it was when we arrived, we quickly found a seat. Menu offers some interesting choices & each of our party of four enjoyed their chosen options. Good sized portions. The latte was really good, as was the hot chocolate chosen by two of the party & the chocolate milkshake was much appreciated! Nice to be smiled at by staff clearing the tables! The loos were impressively clean & well-stocked.All-in-all a very pleasant experience. Would recommend.

Situated alongside The Secrett Farm shop the tea rooms are an ideal place to visit while shopping or simply just t pop in for a coffee or snack. Nice surroundings, friendly service and pleasant surroundings.

Aparecimos después de recoger nuestro propio en la granja secretts.

Paramos hoy después visitamos la granja ojp y quedamos encantados con la selección de pasteles en oferta! El café también era genial! Yo recomendaría para ponerse al día con amigos en el sol, ya había asientos dentro y fuera. Gracias al personal por la atención muy amable :).

My first English breakfast back in England. This is a really really great place. If your looking for great food look no further this is great English food.

We left home early to travel to Brighton, so had no breakfast. This was a great spot for brunch as they do a lovely all day breakfast. It was all very nice, but the toast was wonderful as I have not been eating bread since the New Year. Felt very satisfied at the end if a little naughty.

Visited this place once last year when visiting family nearby - so I decided to return this year as I was SO impressed. I'm pleased to say that this year's visit was not a disappointment. The same high standards of customer service and cleanliness have been maintained and the light meal I ordered was great value. I was exceptionally pleased with the granary bacon sandwich - the bread was fresh, they were not stingy with the bacon - which was crispy (a rare thing these days!) and the service was speedy and friendly. What more could you ask for? I'm definitely going to try and visit more often!!!

What a charming place this is. My partner dropped me off whilst he went to a meeting and I wandered around taking in the atmosphere before stopping for coffee from the tea rooms which seemed to be doing a brisk business.The menu looked very appetising but I only wanted coffee and that was of excellent quality. The polite and friendly waitress asked me if I wanted hot milk or cold and delivered my drink outside to where I was sitting.If we'd had more time I think we would have spent a long time browsing the shop, the farm shop and perhaps had lunch at Eliza's. We'll do this next time, we know where you are now.

Stopped yesterday while looking for a garden centre in the area. Had the breakfast for myself and bacon sandwich for me grandsonBoth where lovely and will definitely visit again when in the area

A slice of stylish originality in the same location as Secrett's Farm Shop. Love the atmosphere which is quite unique and a positive tonic to the fast pace everywhere else. The tea and scones are Authentic, but not for dieters!

Stopped in here for a late breakfast when visiting Butchers. Blue mountain coffee is so good and what looks like all the food served here. We both opted for a sausage bap and wasn't disappointed. This was our first time here despite using Secretts farm shop for many years. We will use again and definitely recommend.

A delightful establishment. Tearoom atmosphere and very clean. Good coffee and prompt friendly service. A good range of all day menus at very reasonable prices. Also has a selection of greeting cards and prints. Look forward to going again. Well worth a visit

Good food - sourced fresh and local, well prepared at the time of ordering; good selection of drinks - teas, coffees, softies, etc; cosy but not cramped; good service - polite, responsive, quick; and good value. The tea shop is set in farm buildings which includes the wonderful Secretts farm shop, a good local butchers, and a ladies clothing shop. Great combination to keep everyone happy.

Just go - you'll love it and the shop next door. Simple fare i.e Welsh rarebit, jacket potatoes, salads, toasted sandwiches etc. but good quality. Good cakes and lovely hot tea.

Excellent food and friendly service for a light lunch. Nothing too much trouble. Good value for money

We jumped off the freeway looking for a place to have lunch and found Eliza's. We had tasty ham and cheese toasted sandwiches and soda with ice. The waitress was very nice and friendly. We were there on a Sunday and the place was full but no one was standing and waiting to be seated. We didn't have dessert but the choices looked delicious. Two young ladies seated next to us had a chocolate brownie with ice cream and they seemed quite pleased with it.

Lovely spot and really good food but I could not get over paying £7.50 for a breakfast bap with bacon sausage and egg. Too much.

On a return to Secretts after a number of years we were disappointed to find the tearoom had changed and not for the better. Gone was the bone china and tea strainers, in were utilitarian cups and teabags in plain teapots. Gone was the cosy atmosphere and friendly welcome, in was the high density seating and banging down the cups on a bare table. Will not be going back.

Popped in for breakfast before going into farm shop. Scrambled eggs with bacon for me & poached eggs & bacon for friend. Both came with toast. My eggs were lovely & creamy and friend happy with her poached ones. Generous amount of bacon too. Staff lovely

We popped into Eliza's for breakfast and very nearly walked back out again. Firstly the service was pretty slow and secondly, the prices were astronomical.Breakfast is £8.95 (so basically £9) and you get 1 x egg, 1 x sausage, 1 x tomato, 3 x rashers of bacon and some beans. Oh, and one tiny slice of toast. Taking a look at the normal menu, they charge £9 - yes £9 - for a baked potato. I mean, come on....... seriously?!Even if you did just got there for tea and cake, the price of a slice of cake (fairly bog standard sized slice) is £3.Do you know what, I would recommend you go elsewhere. You can get more for your money literally down the road at the Inn on the Lake or even at Squires (formerly Secretts) canteen. Eliza's just isn't worth it.They are charging high end prices for very bog-standard food and inferior portions given the price! Plus the tables are tiny! They cannot accommodate anymore than 2 people, so you've nowhere to put purses or phones etc...We won't be going back.

Thought we would try here for Eliza's breakfast. We were only people there at 9 15 am.Coffee and tea good, start with a positive!Bacon warmed up streaky awful, beans luke warm, tomatoes not cooked and my sausage a burnt hard torpedo.Toast was good egg a bit hard.Service luke warm, not somewhere I would go back to for Breakfast. No personal touch!!!!

I have been here before.I came back with the same friend, but this time no kids, but we had afternoon teas for two plain & fruit scones, cream, apricot jam very yummy, Staff very friendly.Menu was good lots to choose from including gluten free.Free wifi. Tea room opposite little shop that has clothes, jewelry, bags & little bit of all sorts,little further along there is a butchers too. We went into the farm shop with a wide choice of things to buy, cheeses which I found Lincs Poacher which is a lovely cheese, cold meats, pet food, teas, coffee, diff sorts of bread, biscuits, sweet, chocs, gluten free range. Frozen fruits. lots of fresh fruit & veg which mostly grown on site There is an area to pick your own. Huge car parking for both places. Children can go & feed the ducks on the pond which takes you to Squires Garden centre. This a place to walk around lots to see in/outdoors well worth a visit, yes would recommend & will will be back.

Cream tea for two and a Victoria sponge, £14.90. Scones were excellent, very fresh and well baked, could not have been better. Jam was somewhat disappointing, it is your standard Wilkin and sons, whereas there was plenty of ripe strawberries on the Secretts farm next door. Victoria sponge had too much vanilla extract. Friendly service.

The café is located in the Secretts farmshop building, and is light and airy. I stopped here for breakfast one day, a bacon and egg bap on another visit. Service was friendly and quick. We had tea and coffee with our food and both were good. My last visit was a couple of days ago, I ordered a bacon and egg bap to go. It was lovely, the bap was great, almost couldn't finish it, not bad for less than £4. Will certainly use again.

I stopped here while visiting the Black Barn Butchers on the same site. The menu has just enough choices for all times of the day and the food I saw looked very good. I had a pot of breakfast tea which came suitably strong and accompanied by a jug of hot water - always the mark of somewhere that knows how to serve tea properly. The chocolate cake was excellent and you could tell it was made rather than manufactured. I go to the Black Barn Butchers most weeks and in future will make time to stop for tea and cake while there, a real treat.

It was a little crowded, as usual, but found a table. Service fast and food good. Will definitely come again.

And good selection of low carb foods for those of us on diets! I had asparagus wrapped in prosciutto ham with a poached egg on top with hollandaise sauce which was delicious and surprisingly filling - highly recommended but there were plenty of other attractive choices

We used to visit Eliza's often as we loved it's charm with it's pretty vintage bone china cups and saucers, gorgeous gifts to look at whilst eating/chatting and its cosy atmosphere. Having not been for a while we were so disappointed to find that this had all changed. Unable to comment on the food as we only had a coffee but now there seems nothing to stand it apart from so many other tea rooms/coffee shops with its chunky white standard coffee cups and lack of atmosphere. A real shame in my opinion.

Nice sunny spot for a morning coffee, albeit in the carpark! Part of the farmers market/ flowers/ gift shop little complex. Enjoyed a lovely cheese scone, with good quick service. Would recommend and come again.

Nice place to stop just for the café or also for the shops in the same area. Has a good selection of hot & cold snacks, including coffee, gluten free cakes, cream teas and cheese scones. Bit of a suntrap out the front, but always fairly busy.

This traditional, cosy tea room gets very busy at times. There were lots of mothers and babies there. The cakes and scones are delicious and there is a snacky menu. There is a very pleasant atmosphere, but it can get very noisy when it is busy.

Eliza's is great for breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea an cake. Staff are friendly, attentive and the food is exactly what you would expect from a good local cafe. Great value for money and highly recommended.

Good snack menu, pleasant surroundings and local art on wallsVery good and pleasant service.Lovely soupplenty of parkingNear very good farm shop

Real traditional tea rooms without being stuffy - love it! Tea coffee and cakes and lots of light snack - perfect meeting place!

Paid another visit today to this wonderful friendly Cafe/Resturant which as always never disappoints. The Staff are always welcoming friendly and very efficient, nothing is too much trouble .The coffee is great and the food and cakes are of a wonderful standard all at a reasonable cost.All the food is prepared on the premises of from the sister company a few hundred yards from Eliza's If you are ordering breakfast, lunch or even as smart sandwich don't expect it to arrive at the table immediately as each meal is prepared especially for you.The Resturant is always spotlessly clean and tidy with lots of little things for you to see inside.Go and treat yourselfThanks Eliza's

Happy staff, great service and excellent food. This venue went through a bit of a tired period until the new team from Butter & Cream cakes in Milford took over a couple of years ago. Since then the menu has a greater selection and all the food is hand prepared to order. Lovely soups, specials and sandwiches are on offer plus an all day breakfast menu. Seasonal dishes mix in with established favourites. Their home made quiches, fresh salads and gorgeous cakes (made at the bakery around the corner) are real winners. My family love this tea room, the clothes shop opposite and of course the farm shop next door. Like the Facebook page for regular updates on specials and events. We were lucky enough to visit a couple of weeks ago when they were celebrating British Breakfast Week which we saw on their twitter feed too.

This place has gone way downhill since Gill left. All of the regulars I chat to say she is missed. This place is now like the moon - completely lacking in atmosphere.

Have visited here several times whilst staying locally with our family. Superb food and service in a charming setting. We will return in 2016.

After a short break at nearby Haslemere, we fancied stopping off for a potter round a farmshop and hopefully grab a drink before the drive up the motorway.We found Secrett's Farm and pulled in, the farm shop was a bit prciey, they always are, and I have definitely seen some of the items for much much much cheaper elsewhere, but having such an interesting selection to browse was too tempting and I came away with several gifts. We popped in to Eliza's as it was close and had a cafetiere of coffee for two, and we both had a slice of treacle tart with lemon and clotted cream.The whole thing came to £13.50 approx which was again, a little pricey but everything was tasty and fresh and the staff were friendly and polite and it really set me up nicely for the drive back. It's not a hug cafe so I can imagine it being busy at times, and the loos are indeed outside the shop but they were pleasant enough with ample loo roll, however we did visit on a Wednesday afternoon so it wasn't heaving with people.If you are in the area it's a nice place to take a breather, and gave me a nice community vibe.

I went for lunch here with daughter and granddaughter (3) after enjoying the Halloween tractor ride around Secrett's farm.Very noisy, lots of children but that was ok given all the young families attending the event.I had the carrot soup - which was almost cold and was like carrot puree, not soup. Not pleasant. My daughter had poached eggs on toast - did what it said on the tin, bread was just ordinary sliced, more transport cafe. Paid over £5 for a kiddies lunch box. Two pappy white bread sandwiches with the wet, reconfigured ham. A packet of Cheddars, Ribena apple juice and a satsuma. Granddaughter took the ham out of the bread (very wise), wouldn't eat the bread - so ended up with the satsuma. My daughter wouldn't let her drink the Ribena as it is so full of sugar, so ordered a 'fresh' apple juice - which had a funny liquorice taste. Secrett's bread is lovely - they have some mini rolls, ham off the bone, ample fruit and some interesting healthy cakes and biscuits. Ok, so it came in a paper lunch box with animals on and a mask (which broke immediately) - but what a shame that someone can't think through what 3 year olds eat and how their mothers want them to have fun things and eat a healthy diet.Just too expensive, no imagination, no change of menu - could be so much better.

Lunch is expensive and limited. Good for afternoon tea. Noisy at times and toilets outside and you have to ask for a key to the disabled.

Met up with four friends for coffee, it was lovely, service was good. My only issue was the cheese scones were quite salty.

What a treat!!Great coffeeBrill toasties and omelettesFab jackets and always nice specials,and lovely scones and cakes.This is home made farmhouse stylecooking-- and the best for a 15 mileradius-- good job and thank you--and not too expensive, which is why it has mummy's and children and gentileolder folk in equal measures--You do the Surrey hills proud!!

Wanted a place to treat a friend to lunch en route and was not disappointed. Reasonable menu choice with a beautiful homemade soup. The omelet was well cooked and presented. Lovely staff too.The tea rooms were lovely with odd gifts and cards to buy . The garden centre shop was amazing so have to return to do it justice. It is a jewel in Milford.

I am unsure if this is under new ownership, but I can safely say this has to be one of the worst places I have been in a while. The items on the menu we wanted to order were not available, the service was incredibly slow, although it wasn't busy and it has to be the worst cup of tea ever served. It was so weak the water was see through. The waitress confirmed this is a regular problem and gave us tea bags to add to our loose tea. This used to be a fabulous little meeting place, now I would advise anyone to go to the main garden centre door to eat or drink. We will not be returning there.

Convenient place to meet for tea/coffee in the Secretts Food Centre. It's been recently refurbished and it's lost a little of the oldie worldie charm that it had before, but the drinks and cakes are still very good. Parking is easy, and go to the main food hall afterwards for more treats!

Just love the chicken, bacon and advocado sandwiches and the fresher than fresh salad garnish. A real treat, with tea served in bone china cups. Agree with a previous reviewer that it has less character than before refit, but upside is that there seem to be more tables and therefore less waiting time for a table! :-)

I recently took over a business in Milford and find myself in the area every week or so. Have been to Eliza's now at least 6 times and always found it to be friendly, quick serving with a good range of food on offer, even on a busy lunchtime have squeezed in and enjoyed a soup or jacket potato. It's on my regular list.

I haven't been to Eliza's for a while, but always love this little tea shop. Very surprised to see the changes inside. The lovely country feel of the interior has been substituted with a big space of table and chairs in the main area, which has no atmosphere, is very clattery and devoid of any soft furnishings. The menu book needs to be ditched, as worn plastic, generic burgundy style does not fit with Eliza's. No flowers on the tables and no cosy touches....... ..... But, the welcome and service was good. Our tea and tea cake was excellent and there is an area with pretty pottery and greetings cards etc. This is near the till and not near the customer area. We enjoyed our tea, but felt very disappointed with the interior changes, especially on a cold afternoon.Suggest a few little touches need to be added.

What a pity. Having made several enjoyable visits in the past couple of years, I find that the tea rooms no longer take bookings. With a disabled wife it is just not practical to turn up on spec. Very disappointing.

Having travelled to visit this cafe on two occasions, neither have been made worthwhile.First occasion, arrived 15 minutes BEFORE final hot food orders (as stated on their menu) and was advised that hot food was no longer being served. We came in for specifically warming winter food.Left with no food - were not impressed with the level of service.Second occasion, arrived in the busy cafe. No tables. Stood waiting at the door for a good ten minutes, no acknowledgment from any member of the team despite them passing us... if you want customers, surely they should be welcomed?! After a wait, I called the attention of one of the staff and asked how long the wait would be as no one had approached us. She couldn't give me any idea and was very dismissive about the idea of placing a reserved sign on the table for us should one come available whilst we browsed the farm shop next door.We left, again, for good and will not be returning. I have informed others of our dissatisfaction on multiple occasions with the cafe. I am sure lots of business is/will be being lost not only by their own conduct/lack of good service, but also from our word of mouth to friends and family who have suggested visiting.Don't waste your time!

After shopping in the superb farm shop, we were in need of some substanence. After a very friendly greeting , we were seated and started studging the comprehensive menu (lots of very tempting things), we decided on the tea cakes which were excellent , just enough butter and the tea was nice too, with loads of homemade cakes to choose from , this is definitely an alternative to the costa and nero places, give it a go and enjoy..

Called for tea and scones whilst waiting for a physic appointment down the road. Sat quietly at a table not sure whether to order at the counter or if it was waitress service and after a short wait discovered it was the latter. Good pot of tea and a large scone just the way I like them. Cost less than a fiver, friendly service - no complaints from me

A friend & I frequently meet for lunch here and are disappointed that over the past few months it has changed so much. Gone are the special touches such as a chocolate at the end of the meal, no loose leaf tea with strainer,just a tea bag and no more Eliza's homemade salad dressing. The bill is now presented with the cutlery long before the food arrives. When I visited yesterday the final straw was when a creature crawled out of my salad! It is no surprise that there are no longer queues at lunchtime. People appear to be voting with their feet & we will be doing the same.

We eat here several times a week. Have just returned from a lunch, food good as ever but appalling indifferent service. Maybe it was temporary weekend staff? Normally the regular ladies are first-rate and welcoming. Firstly, the table we chose had not been cleared from previous customers, after requesting that it be done it was then wiped only after we requested. Part way through the meal we had neither knives and forks nor serviettes, these had to be requested. Ice cream was brought to the table ( and no customary chocolate wafer) before it had been cleared of first course plates. The waitresses (I think three) spent much time talking to one another at the servery, we always had to request their attention for anything we needed. We left at that point and adjourned elsewhere where we had a lovely coffee and smiling service. We make no complaint about the ladies and young gentlemen who usually serve us, they are delightful, friendly and attentive. To sum up the girls this afternoon looked bored and probably were there only for the money.

As the title says, it is much better since the refit! Although it was pretty before, with all the lovely gifts etc for sale it was very cramped and you could hardly move. Now it is light and airy, and the cream tea's remain as good as before!

Having moved to Surrey three years ago, we visited Eliza's Tearoom at least once a month and really looked forward to the ambience of a tearoom fifty years ago with the extra little touches. Visited a few weeks ago - what a disaster. The staff were indifferent, atmosphere cold it appeared that they only wanted to take your money and for you to leave. WILL NOT BE VISITING THIS TEAROOM AGAIN.

I usually come in for a morning coffee most days due to working in Milford and having to arrive a hour early. Coffee is essential to my day. I do 14 hour shifts in a kitchen. After purchasing my coffee in a takeaway cup an old waitress comes over and tells me I am not allowed to sit on the outside seating as it "gets confusing" the abrupt manner in which I was told this I found offensive. I have paid for a coffee and yet I am not allowed to sit where I please. Eliza's is a lovely tearoom their cakes are stunning and look delicious I think they need to work on their staffs temperment though. I do not expect to be treated like a burden as a customer.
