Kerry's Tea Room in Arun

My sister told me about this place.went there for the first time was very friendly and made to feel welcome.i will definitely be coming back to this place again.

This was such a find. We happened to be here on business and had make excellent time so we had arrived nearly an hour earlier than the orginal satnav timing had suggested. We thought a nice cup of tea would idle that time away. Instead we found ourselves eating some really loves pastries and cakes, washed down by really well made tea. The feel of the place was such that we were engaged in really friendly conversation with both staff and customers. The telling thing was that we found ourselves late for our meeting and are now finding excuses to return here!

In these uncertain times Kerry's Tea Room has certainly stepped up to the mark. My partner's children got together to arrange a delivery of afternoon tea for their mum on mother's day. Beautifully presented and delicious. I'll definitely be ordering again and will visit once the tea room actually opens "normally" once more

I ordered a celebration birthday tea for my brother in law and his wife having found Kerry's on the internet. The response was excellent and delivery bang on time and as promised. Recipients were delighted. Service was very friendly and the prices were more than competitive. Thank you Kerry. I would have no hesitation in using them again. Looking for an excuse.

i ordered a celebration afternoon tea over the phone from nottingham for my mother in law in littlehampton the service was excellent delivered my order on time the food was excellent and very tasty as she was in lockdown it made her very happy and the pictures she sent showed how excellent the food was thank you for all you have done the service was ecellent will use again

A lovely little tea room a short distance from the beach and not to be missed. They also stock goodies for people in lock down.

Just in Preston so popped in kerrys ,very nice tea and scone ,good selection and very friendly well worth a visit

We are lucky to have this great resource in our village, they are nice people, great products, groceries and yummy food

It’s been a while since I have used this cafe due to lockdown. I usually have Eggs Benedict but they have stopped doing cooked meals at the moment. My friend and I had sandwiches. I had egg mayonnaise, onion and tomato which was lovely and my friend had smoked salmon and cream cheese which he really enjoyed. He said the cheese was high quality. The prices continue to be very reasonable and the staff lovely

I visited Kerry's for lunch and had quiche with salad and baked potato then caramel ice cream sundae. After those I felt pleasantly sated. However there were a couple of issues. Both the quiche slice and the baked potato had been kept too hot for too long. The quiche had dried out somewhat, spoiling the texture and taste. The potato had acquired a soap like consistency. The venue and service were quite good though. I was amused to find that even though I retired quite a few years ago, I was the youngest client in there by some margin and they all knew each other by first name! To summarise, the current overall rating of Kerry's on TA is 4.5 stars. The current true rating (today) is not even close, but just a couple of changes of procedure in the kitchen should raise the (true) rating back to around 4 stars. Rating for food today is 5/10.

Had a very reasonably priced Eggs Benedict. The ingredients were of a high quality. The staff were very nice

I went for the celebration afternoon tea with two others, Kerry's tea room offer the afternoon tea in a gluten free version with no additional costs. All food served was freshly made and was very nice. If you wanted more water, butter instead of cream they were very accomodating. The service was excellent, very polite, home from home and friendly. I will return there very soon.

Kerry's is a lovely authentic café, with a nice range of cards and gifts on offer. The Eggs Benedict is one of the best I've had for some time! Well done to Kerry and all her staff

Friendly local tea room. Always enjoy popping into Kerry's for a coffee and a milkshake or ice-cream with the children.

The staff were really friendly and welcoming. The cricketers tea (Coffee, Sandwich and a scone with clotted cream/jam) was excellent value and really tasty. It’s available with gluten free bread and scones which were delicious.

My husband and I called in for afternoon tea while visiting East Preston. We were made very welcome and our order was taken immediately. My Earl Grey and coffee cake arrived very quickly and were delicious. My husband enjoyed his cream tea - and he’s a very tough customer to please, so quite an achievement there! The portions were generous and the lady serving us was very pleasant.If we are in the area again I would love to return.

Cheese scone served cold and was dry. No engagement from server and lady (possibly owner) just on laptop apart from when there was bills to be paid by customers. Cakes on display looked ok - nothing to write home about!

I was buying a property in the area and had to pick up keys from the agent next door. I decided to go for a bite to eat and am so glad I popped in to Kerry's. A real delight, lovely people who obviously knew many of the customers in there and greeted them as old friends. Attentive service and then the food. I was just going to have a sandwich but was tempted by the smoked salmon and prawn salad. Thank goodness I was. It was really good and fresh salad with homemade coleslaw. Yummy. O.K. I was then tempted again by the homemade cakes and puddings and indulged myself again!. This little tea-room should be an example to others of what can be done if you just make the effort!!. Thank goodness I don't live close by as my waistline would expand quickly. Having said that whenever I am in the area I shall certainly pop in and would recommend it to anyone who likes honest good food and service. Well done Kerry and the 'girls'.

How nice to have a special gluten-free menu with plenty of choice. On this occasion had soup with gluten-free bread, but there was also sandwiches and cake I could have had. Staff lovely and helpful.

Kerry's is a great place for a cup of tea or coffee, or a light meal. There is plenty of space to sit at a table.

This place is great for a bite to eat and village chat. I had eggs Benedict and they eggs where poached perfectly. Nice large pit of tea and a friendly welcome.

Nos detuvimos en una taza de té y un bollo. Buena selección de tés.

Not that great average, I had poached egg that was cold my mother had quiche that she said did not have any taste to it.

Estuvimos encantados cuando descubrimos Kerry reapertura en East Preston, habiendo frecuentado sus premisas anteriores durante muchos años. Pensamos que era hora que marca en Tripadvisor cómo es un lugar que es! Nunca hemos tenido una mala comida aquí, ya sea para el brunch, almuerzo ligero o el té de la tarde. La comida es casera, bien presentado y con un precio razonable. Aunque lo que hace Kerry es el ambiente agradable y acogedor, Kerry y su personal disfrutar verdaderamente acogedor a sus clientes y es por eso que tengo ganas de visitar durante muchos años más!

Good place of a cup of tea, scone or cake. Homemade tasty food. Good for meeting up with friends and having a natter.

Salón de té agradable, gente amable que estén interesadas en la comunidad. También se especializan en catering fuera para fiestas. Los pudines pegajoso o helado los helados tienen uno de sus caprichos.

I had a very nicely cooked breakfast with tea and it was very reasonably priced. The atmosphere in the restaurant was relaxed and the staff were very friendly

Vine aquí mientras visitaba a mi madre en una casa local. Ella está en una silla de ruedas y el personal era muy complaciente con nosotros y el espacio que necesitábamos. Un espléndido menú de aperitivos fríos y calientes y llevar más deliciosas tartas. Preciosa decoración y entorno, así como buena comida y buena relación calidad-precio. Pero la amabilidad y atención del personal que hace esta crítica digna de cinco estrellas. Sin duda será de nuevo.

Parado con amigos después de un paseo por el paseo marítimo. Excelente taza de té con tazas de porcelana y platillos. Muy buena selección de caseros y tortas frescas, bollos, etc. En general muy bueno y recomendable.

Sabroso queso casero macarrones con roll, deliciosos langostinos, patatas al horno con ensalada de atún y jengibre, cerveza, taza de té (3 tazas) de café y todo para cafetière £25 por dos y sirve en la china por personal atento en un ambiente agradable. Qué buena relación calidad-precio para el almuerzo! De lo más agradable. También sirve desayunos y el té de la tarde.

well we get to kerry's tea rooms quite a lot it is our local and always a great place to visit you can just have a drink and chats with all who are in there at the time our you can sample the wonderful home made foods we love it and you will to thank you Kerry and all the staff who we like to think of as friends and it is now in the 4th year of trading and lots of things planned on the run up to chrismas see you soon

Hercule Poirot would just love this charming little Eatery, with Ercol type furniture and linen table cloths. The" HOME MADE" food is second to none and the stall are efficient and charming. If you are staying here on holiday you must visit this Jewel in the Crown Cafe.If you live in the area you will know about already and I'm sorry to give away your little secret to all.

Had lunch a few times. Beautiful pastries and cakes. Even ran across from my cousins to get a few cakes for tea time. She makes a lovely cuppa

With free parking outside, a visit to Kerrrys tea rooms if well worth it. Lovely china, cake stands and teapots with cosies all adds to the delightful variety of home made cakes. There is even an area for children to make their own pots whilst you enjoy your afternoon tea. Always get a warm friendly welcome here.

Popped in as the missus wanted a cream tea - decided I wanted one too! Great little room, nice and bright - painting activities to help keep kids entertained. Goods for sale - preserves, chutneys, biscuits etc - all good value. Welcoming friendly hosting, great scones, great tea! Recommend the cricket tea - superb fresh tuna and corn on granary. Around a fiver a head it's value for great quality product. You'll be going back again and again...

Bright, clean, friendly, comfortable ,and disabled- friendly, what more do you want for a morning coffee break? Good coffee and efficient service, yed it has those too!!

Excellent service, excellent value and very quaint. Eggs cooked to perfection. The teapots are very cute and attention made to details such as fine bone china and hot plates and bowls, which is much appreciated.

We went for a family drink on a Friday afternoon and ended up being tempted with a cream tea, An amazing choice of scones and jams, the places has friendly staff and great service would recommend.

We were running around the East Preston area looking at flats. It was a cold wet day and we were feeling a little dismal.Having parked on Sea Road in East Preston we looked around for a shelter to have coffee.. there seemed to be nothing... Then I spotted a young lady walking along... I asked if she knew anywhere nice that we could have a good cup of coffee... Fortunately for us, she worked at Kerry's Tea Room.... we would definitely have missed it otherwise...So we were able to relax enjoy a refreshing cup of fresh coffee and even treated ourselves to some delicious home made cheese scones!THANK YOU!!!

What a lovely and welcoming little tea room. We visited for a wee retiral doo and couldn't fault anything. We'll be back soon Kerry!

The children really enjoy painting plaster of Paris models with everything provided and afterwards you can all enjoy tea. Kerry tried hard to keep younger customers happy with books etc as well and great milkshake as well as providing a relaxing place for those without children and knew her regular customers very well.

Kerry's tea room is so good to visit for a nice cup of tea or coffee or to eat some good home cooked food. The cakes are delicious. The staff are so friendly and helpful and make you feel at home. Worth a visit if you are in the area.

Come away from the sea front to the heart of the village and you will find a tea room to die for. The service is great and delicious cakes and scones. Drop in for a warm welcome.

We felt like tea and scones and drove past Kerry's. Really yummy fresh scones and lots of other delicious cakes. Kerry herself was really lovely and friendly and gave us tips on the village. Only place open past 4pm!

Lovely smart brightly decorated tearoom, which we found quite by accident when arriving in the area. Just a lunch time snack but really tasty and filling which was exactly what we needed. Vintage bone China which makes it all the more enjoyable.Staff were great, especially Kerry who kindly gave us directions to our hotel and also gave us details of events happening over the weekend. Well worth a visit!

We always stop off at Kerry's Tea Rooms - our favourite Lunches are Homebaked Quiche and Salad, The Crab Sandwiches or Baked Potatoes. The afternoon teas are also fabulous. The staff are very friendly and the service is five star.

Easy to while away a few hours here chatting whilst the children paint pottery before enjoying a delicious lunch. Also booked my daughters birthday party here as she really enjoyed the pottery painting!

The friendly service and excellent cream teas are a must here. The kids love it as there is pottery painting to do and a free drink whilst mum and dad enjoy a delicious cup of coffee.

Really lovely food, fair prices and very nice welcoming staff. Highly recommended for lunch or afternoon tea. First stop on arrival whilst waiting for our villa to be ready, really nice all round. Thank you.

My second home. Excellent food and staff. Very good menu and Kerry will always go the exta mile. Very close to beach and shops parking outside.Also pottery painting availible for mids and big kids.

What a lovely surprise to find Kerry's Tea Room - full of character, you feel you could be in someone's sitting room having tea!Kerry, the owner, was cooking and serving when we popped in - a warm welcome from her and as she busied herself with others you could tell that many regulars all pop in for a cuppa!Everything is homemade and the array of cakes were lovely - we opted for the cream tea and were not disappointed - the scones were so good that we ordered more!There is a section for children's pottery painting which seemed quite popular judging by the amount of finished items on display and Kerry does also outside catering which judging from the food in her tea room, would be really good.Well worth stopping by for a meal or a cuppa - you would be welcome for either!

I took my children and god daughter for an afternoon tea and decided to paint some pottery while we were there. They all had a wonderful time, I had a delicious cup of tea and piece of cake and we were made to feel so welcome, like we had been invited in to someone's home. Thank you x

Traditional tea rooms with proper teapots and tea cosies and mismatched bone china. Nice menu of light bites and some lovely cakes & scones. Also has a pottery cafe which the kids love. A favourite after-school treat :-)

I have been in Kerry’s Tea Room a few times and each time it’s lovely.There is such a warm welcome from all the staff and the pot of tea (with tea cosy) is huge!I always have soup which is great and always get offered a glass of water to go with it.And to follow desert of the day, something with custard!I believe all the cakes are hand made by Kerry and it’s hard to not be tempted!Highly recommend.

we have known kerry for a long time now and it is great to have her back in the village , always a very warm welcome what ever time of day the staff ie friends now who work there and great and time for a chat and a laugh . and the food well we love what ever we have i always have 2 poached eggs baked beans and two toast . and christine likes her porridge and cream so if you are in east preston do please call in to kerrys tea room and i know you will have a good time and great food

My husband & I with a couple of friends go quite often to Kerry's. Kerry works really hard to give satisfaction to her customers .The food is lovely, it may snack type but always well presented, if you like delicious cake you cannot fault her range.Her staff are very welcoming. Kerry's does get busy at times, but mostly when we go early lunch times we have no trouble getting a table.

Visited here the other week when the sun was gazing through the windows, I was boiling and wanted the windows open however a couple complained they were cold, it's very small and only good at non-busy periods. Food is standard, mainly a place if you are craving snacks. Staff are lovely, it's just too cramped for my liking, I'd gladly go back to east preston but maybe go somewhere else.

Lovely friendly cafe with good menu and nice staff, they also do pottery painting and at the moment Easter Card making for children!!
