Lightcliffe Tea Rooms in Calderdale

We call here quite often for breakfast and have never had a poor meal or drink. Staff are lovely and friendly and food locally sourced and oh so tasty. I would defo recommend .

Just home after an absolutely delicious lunch at Lightcliffe tea rooms today. Lots of choice on the usual menu plus February specials. I went for the BBQ chicken, bacon & cheese baguette and hubby had the breakfast omelette and we shared a bowl of chips. All from the specials list. The food was hot and obviously fresh, including the salad. No limp lettuce or soggy tomato here! Most importantly, all the good was seriously good. It was full when we visited and I was glad I had booked a table. We did overhear the waiting staff having to tell some people they couldn't take food orders as they were so busy, the way they apologised and explained was a credit to the team. All in all, this was a very pleasant lunchtime outing!

Celebrating 80th birthday with present from party guest for Afternoon Tea. Pleased to say the Afternoon Tea was excellent with wonderful ambience, and Silver Service by Hannah and Caitlin Thank you.

Called in for breakfast on Saturday morning. Food was fabulous, staff lovely great price for such good quality food . Can’t recommend enough - will defo return

Contacted Lightcliffe Tea Rooms recently by messenger to enquire about them supplying sandwiches for 12 people for a family party. They were extremely helpful, replied quickly & supplied the delicious sandwiches with very short notice. My elderly mum picked them up & the gentleman serving even helped her to carry them to her car. Thank you Lightcliffe Tea Rooms for outstanding service & we would highly recommend you.

We popped in one Sunday at around 12pm. Me and my partner ordered a chocolate orange cake & 2 flat whites which were lovely. The young girl with brown hair had great service & made excellent coffees. We will definitely be visiting again.

Thank you for an absolutely beautiful takeaway breakfast today - very highly recommended and we’ll be ordering again very soon !!

This is a welcoming place, with great coffee, and friendly staff, working hard to offer a good service during these challenging times.

We were pleasantly surprised after reading a number of the reviews on here. Terri and Ben provided us with exceptional service during our recent visit. There was an extensive selection of cakes on offer along side homemade sandwiches. All the COVID protocols were in place and all staff members appeared to be well trained. We look forward to returning next time we are in the area. Thank you again Terri and Ben for your warm and generous hospitality.

I contacted the team to ask if they were open for people to sit in again and the response I got was “ Hiya Yes we have been open for a few weeks now” ok......a bit abrupt but they must be under pressure. Every time I asked a question the response was in the same abrupt manner, but I thought that some people do come across as abrupt on line, but are actually lovely in person. I asked to book afternoon tea for 2 adults and 2 children. As they offer a take away option for children, I assumed that this would be ok.....but I was quickly corrected with “ We don’t do a child’s afternoon tea at the moment....are you wanting an adults on for each of the children?”. I was unsure what this meant so I asked if they meant for the children to share - the response was “Up to you....?” And “Depends on the age of the children?”. I was fed up with the tone at this point, pointed it out and said thanks but no thanks. They replied “ All I meant was if they are little children then, one to share would be fine, but if they are older children and depending on their appetite they may want one on their own, I usually suggest children sharing as they are quite large” I explained that they had not said this and repeated their replies to them. I pointed out that I felt that they were abrupt, unhelpful and patronising. I explained

We just had the most wonderful afternoon tea delivered as an Easter treat !! Sandwiches were amazing and the selection of cakes and scones were fabulous!!! Thank you very much xx

Visited with family for a quick bite while out on a walk. Three sandwiches and a soup took 45 minutes to arrive. My sandwich arrived 5 minutes after everybody else's. The food itself was fine. Unfortunately this is not the first time we've questioned the speed of service at this otherwise pleasant cafe.

Nice scones, but very weak cappuccino with very poor froth. Tasted more like warm milk than coffee. Will not be returning.

A good decision to stop off for a snack on a drive out from Brighouse. A relaxing airy eating area and well presented Panini and sandwich taking into account the need for a drop of horseradish on the beef. All very pleasant and just about right for our needs.

Delicious homemade tomato soup.... Warmed us up and so tasty! We found this place via TripAdvisor when visiting Shibden Hall. Its not far and worth the visit. Chaps serving were so nice and friendly, we wish this place was closer.

We visit this lovely little tearoom quite often for breakfast. Eggs are perfect, just how I like them. Love the rest of the breakfast too. Coffee is spot on. I could sit for hours, but my partner won’t let me 😁

Called in for breakfast simply because passing and looked nice from the outside. Glad we did as the inside was just as nice, and the food was great. Add in friendly service and whats not to like...

Took my daughters here as part of my youngest's 2nd birthday celebration. We rang beforehand to request a party afternoon tea suitable for a 2 and 4 year old. The team made a really lovely spread with very short notice (sorry again about that) and had it ready as a surprise when my daughter walked in - at a reserved table complete with frilly tablecloth, right next to a selection of toys and games. Excited squeals were followed by tucking in to a really nice and age-appropriate selection. And the toys meant me and my husband could relax and enjoy our own food even once they'd finished. We really appreciated the effort made for our girls, and enjoyed the food and friendliness of the staff whilst we were there too. Thank you!

Two of us went to this tearoom today and the waiting times were just silly. We ordered cold drinks, sandwiches and cake. The sandwiches came first and were very nice but we had to ask twice for the drinks and then they had forgotten what we ordered. We could then see that the drinks were on the counter but had to ask again for them to be brought over . The cake was not forthcoming even after three requests then one girl got the right cake out, wandered off to do something else and another girl put it back!! If you should go here , sit near the counter, at least you can see your food waiting to be delivered and remind the staff it’s there or as some people did just fetch it yourself ! Lovely food let down by terrible service

Called for a Sunday breakfast and enjoyed the food as normal but did not agree with being charged extra at full price for upgrading to a large coffee.The menu clearly states the breakfast comes with any tea or coffee so we should either have been charged the price difference only or received 2 drinks.

I have visited this spot on a number of occasions and have always enjoyed the food and friendly service. The decor is also very nice. The only downside is the smoke emanating from the kitchen. This reminds me of the show Stars in their eyes when the contestants entered the stage through a plume of smoke! If there isn’t room to sit in the back you will unfortunately smell of your breakfast for the remainder of the day. All in all a lovely spot which would definitely benefit from some air conditioning.

We were part of a large family party that met to celebrate a special birthday, it was a horrid rainy Saturday afternoon dank and bleak,.

Went to tearoom for a snack on Sunday. Previous visit was a bad experience as they got the order wrong and forgot our drinks altogether. Gave them another chance. Ordered two Christmas themed sandwiches and a prawn one. Prawn sandwich was tasteless and on cheap bread. Pork sandwich was one slice of reformed pork and cheap tasting stuffing again on cheap bread. Turkey sandwich was in a baguette but the turkey was again reformed rather than from a joint. Considering the price we all were very disappointed with the quality and taste. Had to ask for our tea as this had been forgotten. Needless to say we will not be returning.

We visited LTR on a wet, grey Wednesday for afternoon tea. We were greeted with a warm welcome, shown to our table and were talked through our choices of sandwiches, cakes, scone and drinks.

Having been to the tea rooms previously for breakfast we were greeted with a plume of fat smell, we decided to stay , we ordered our usual two small breakfast with poach eggs please to be told No you can't swop from fried eye to poach on a small breakfast. He the. Slammed back into the kitchen.

We called here around 10am on Saturday morning for a birthday breakfast for my friend. The service was excellent, food of great quality and served hot. ( where do you get your lovely bacon from?) Would definitely return and recommend

This was my second visit and wasn't any better than my first. After placing my order and going to sit and wait outside (for 20 mins) I went back in to see where my coffee was, to which I was told...sorry I forgot. That doesn't help me when I was on a tight time frame to grab a drink. I told her I wanted it to go, then had to wait for her to make it. It's not the best coffee in the area and I will not be returning!!! Very poor!!!!

12 of us called in for coffee prior to our Monday morning walk. The quality and pleasant service could not be faulted so we booked tables for lunchtime. All of us seemed to choose different meals for lunch from quite a varied menu and none of us were disappointed. A nice discovery,we will definitely return.

Fab afternoon, 27 guests to celebrate a new baby girl The welcome excellent,China really Vintage The food not only plentiful but scrumptious Catered for all vegetarian and coeliacs Will come again

We have been visiting the tea rooms for a while now but were very disappointed with the recent trip. Went for breakfast as usual on a Sunday morning. The young people behind the counter are very pleasant but lack conversation and experience. When the food arrived, the cheese on toast was more like bread with only one side slightly toasted and the cheese was not melted through. My mother ordered scrambled eggs with bacon and the bacon was quite clearly pre cooked and warmed up as it was as hard as a rock. Now I like crispy bacon but this was way past that.

Just had a very nice cup of tea and a delicious homemade scone in very pleasant surroundings. A great place t9o pop in.

After breakfasting here for a couple of years now thought it was time to leave a review :-). Staff lovely, helpful and polite. Food freshly made and delicious. We've even had a sneaky lunch or two and enjoyed the same level of service and quality of food. They also have a wide selection of cakes too which look yummy. I'm sure we'll be dining at LTR for many years to come.

Well what can we say??? Mother’s Day afternoon tea was absolutely perfect, presentation, quality and service first class. The egg mayonnaise sandwiches are the best we have ever tasted!!! Thank you so much for a lovely afternoon xx

We called in here for coffe and cake having often driven past and thought it looked like a nice cafe. We should really have carried on driving and given it a miss. The windows were all steamed up and the place smelt of a cheap cafe. The kitchen extraction was very poor and I had to wash all our coats on returning home. The order was taken by a young girl that didn’t seem to know what she was doing and I had to clarify the order twice which they still got wrong. It seemed pointless complaining as the staff didnt seem to be bothered about their customers. We could hear all the conversations that the staff were having in the kitchen which I though was very unprofessional.

Excellent quick service and fresh, high quality food. Friendly and welcoming. Definitely worth another visit as soon as the snow allows.

Really nice breakfast this morning, nice and hot and plenty of it plus a cracking pot of tea - result !.

Enjoyed today's visit after 3 mile blustery walk pushing toddler granddaughter in pram.

My wife and I called in for a spot of lunch, we were welcomed by Jessica and Izzy who were really smiley, extremely helpful and very polite, which in my opinion is key to a place like this and makes all the difference.

Looks like it needs a makeover inside, with odd chairs etc, but the food was wonderful.

We visited recently and I have to say what a great time my family and I had.

Waited for 20 minutes to be presented with a cold cup of coffee. It used to be much better - won't go again.

Lovely place and very friendly staff, food was great too! Will be visiting again next time I'm in Yorkshire

Called in for a late lunch. Quite busy but there were a number of empty tables. Ordered and paid for a chicken salad baguette and a tuna mayonnaise baguette. A few minutes later we were told that they had run out of chicken so changed order to a BLT baguette. Despite my husband pointing out that they were the same price on the menu the person serving insisted that the BLT was cheaper and gave us a refund. When lunch arrived I was given a baguette complete with small side salad but my husband was presented with two slices of white bread containing a minimal amount of bacon, couple of slices of tomato and two small lettuce leaves. Served on a tea plate with no side salad or dressing. We had also ordered two lattes which were brought well before the food and were lukewarm. No one bothered to check if everything was satisfactory or if we needed anything else. Will not be returning here.

One of our favourite places for a daytime snack or meal, Myself and my husband love coming here and we each had a small cooked breakfast this morning. It was as delicious as always and very filling. Staff are lovely, chef excellent and prices very reasonable in my view. Will definitely be back and recommend to others.

Came into the Tea Rooms for an afternoon catchup with some friends. I was thrilled with my first visit, it definitely won’t be the last. I was greeted with a friendly hello by the lady at the till who then continued to take my order. After giving our order to the lady we found a quiet table in the back. It seemed a young boy was making the drinks. He brought them very promptly and we had a quick conversation. He was a lovely young boy and made the visit even more joyful. We had only planned on having drinks, however, we couldn’t resist trying the specials. After ordering some food it arrived in a matter of minutes and the quality of food was amazing. We all would recommend the food. Lovely staff and great representative of the Tea Rooms

Went to Lightcliffe Tea Rooms today Saturday 14th October with my mother. We arrived just after 2pm, busy in the main room so went into the back room. 2 of the 5 tables were occupied, another was covered in crockery & leftover food so we sat down at a table for 2.

My husband and I called in for the first time and found the place to be friendly and appealing and good value for money. We couldn't believe the size of the cakes on offer. We are fans of scones so this tends to be our staple when we go to a tea room. I have to say that the quality and presentation was wonderful. This might have been our first visit, but it certainly won't be our last.

I wrote a review a few months ago raving about Lightcliffe tea rooms, the food was always nice, the staff friendly and accommodating. Now it seems to be run by children, who lack social skills. ( Apart from the young lad with black hair) he is lovely! But the rest just grunt, don't really speak. The food has gone down hill & the last couple of times my orders have been wrong. The staff chat more behind the counter with each other instead of listening to my order! I have now changed my Saturday breakfast and gone elsewhere, as Lightcliffe tea rooms are not the cheapest either!! Sorry about the bad review, but its more than one occasion that this has happened!

Called in for lunch on Friday and was very impressed . Nice inside good staff excellent food and amazing cakes. We will come back

thought wed try the tea rooms after our usual place wer closed one sunday morning.it wer popular quite busy. the decor wasnt anything to rite home about could make it realy something if thay put there mind to it, anyway as for the full english we both got we wernt that impressed with the quality for the price, the sausage and bacon wernt of great taste, a few mushrooms,egg half grilled tomato and a slice of black pudding beans in seperate dish served with toast.the toast wer gorgeous the butter thay used wer realy nice. service wer quick .we couldnt see any prices anywhere.mybe there's a reason for that.we wouldnt go again

We called at 11 o'clock for a quick coffee having seen the Tea Rooms on our outward journey. There were several vacant tables and - after placing our order at the till - we chose a table in the room at the rear of the building. There appeared to be only the person we'd seen at the till and another in the small kitchen preparing orders.

Very good food enjoyed very much will go back and tell family and friends. Freindly staff good location

Visited today for a catch with friends it was my suggestion to come here as I'd been before! Yes the food and cakes are very good all good quality. However the service seemed fine at 1st waitress took our drinks order she then said she would be back in a mo but that was not the case when we asked about ordering as we'd more or less finished our drinks we were told we had to go to the counter to order which wasn't a probably had we been told in the 1st instants, so my friend went and ordered on behalf of us all the food arrived which was very nice and well presented, but we were then sat for a good 30 mins and still no one came to clear our plates away as we wanted to order cakes we cleared the plates the best we could but again had to ask the waitress to come and clear them, we saw 1 customer who cleared her own table! It just seemed very chaotic! My friend all said that they wouldn't go back and not sure I would either!

We had heard amazing reviews of Lightcliffe Tea Rooms and we weren't disappointed..

Visited yesterday for afternoon tea . There were 4 of us . The service was quick and friendly . Plenty of choices for the sandwiches . Also get cake , scone and tea or coffee . The afternoon tea was delicious but must admit had to take the cake home couldn't finish it all . I tried the ginger cake which I haven't had there before it was amazing so light with a tasty hint of ginger . Would recommend .

Love this place! Go usually every weekend. I have had various meals, from full breakfast to scones/cakes or baguettes. The food has always been really good, price is reasonable and the staff are very friendly. Lovely place to relax with your family, friends or couples.

Visited today with 6 very excited girls.Who absolutely loved it! Fantastic customer service and was made to feel very welcome. Food was beautifully presented and tasted lovely. Will definitely be returning but without the children. Thank you.

Lovely afternoon tea with excellent food and service from Alison, Amelia, Izzy and Chris! Will definately be back for another visit! Thank you!

I have been here many times with my mum and gran & the food is always lovely. I treated mum and gran to the Mother's Day afternoon tea , we enjoyed every bit of it the quality was really good.

Our 2nd visit here. It's so lovely and comfortable. The staff are really friendly and the cakes are delicious.

Stop here for a coffee, however we ended up having a late lunch I had the ham mustard n cheese toastie came with a very nice salad, just one criticism little to much mustard! My daughter had a jacket potato she said she thinks it was the best jacket potato she every had, and she has had a lot! We're looking forward to our next visit and we're going to try the afternoon tea as this looked superb! Great find.

A good place to stop for a light lunch everything fresh, cakes and scones to die for, and if you are served by either Alison or Jack they are the icing on the cake, always happy and pleasant, only downside shortage of scones, perhaps more could be baked daily.

Visited for a late breakfast; a bit of a wait but worth it as the food was freshly cooked and very good quality when it arrived. Nice coffee! Very pleasant staff.

Food a reasonable price and tasty . Don't have to wait long . Cakes are really yummy especially the Oreo cake . Worth a visit . Warm and inviting .

Not been in a while but felt warmer and friendlier and the food was good. The jacket potatoes weren't microwave something which is hard to find in a cafe these days

Food selection is beautiful. There is a play corner for children. All so fresh and presented beautifully. Plenty roadside parking.

I visited Lightcliffe to do some family history research so was delighted to take tea in this former postoffice with some original features to put me in the mood! I enjoyed a toasted ham, cheese and mustard sandwich with a nice pot of Yorkshire tea. Very nice relaxed atmosphere, service ok. What's not to like?

I took my Mum here for Afternoon tea. The food was delicious. Fresh sandwiches, lovely warm scones with clotted cream and jam, and a selection of cakes. It was very busy but the staff were very efficient and pleasant. This was our first visit but it will not be our last. Just one small suggestion please keep your China cups and saucers for your Afternoon tea visitors. Apparently the China cups were all in use and my Mum at 85 was slightly disappointed at receiving a porcelain cup and saucer. She always has China cups and saucers at home and expected them with Afternoon tea. That said I could not fault the food, the staff and the cleanliness of the place. A very enjoyable treat. The price of £19.95 for two I found to be very reasonable.

Went for Sunday breakfast 3 adults and 2 children. Food was ordered sat waiting for a long time for it to arrive (2 small breakfasts, 1 sausage sandwich, 2 kids cheese on toast with 3 teas and 2 hot chocolates).

We decided to walk here from my friends new house knowing we would need to walk off the calories from our lunch. I was planning on coffee and cake but was swayed by the mini chalkboard specials. We chose hot beef sandwich and a cheese, ham and mustard toasty. Hot drinks and a glass of water were ordered at the servery too. This gave a second chance to look again at the selection of lovely cakes. Sadly we were both full and had no room for more. My friend now has an excuse to return with her husband to try the cake! We were greeted warmly and the service was good. The place is light, airy, clean with a selection of comfy chairs along side the tables and chairs.

We visited as a family. We had baked potatoes and salad and sandwiches with salad. The cucumber served with the salad was completely dry, which must have been noticed when preparing the food. I did inform the waitress when she came to collect the plates. My daughter ordered a gingerbread biscuit which was really soft. We did say, the waitress informed us that they were all from the same box and therefore would all be the same. She then proceeded to ask "Do you wannit back then?" I have to say that we have been going here for several years and today I felt the service was awful and the food really wasn't great. It's not cheap and there are better tea rooms around now.

Having phoned ahead to ask for a ‘draft free’ and ‘quiet’ table, we were shown to the ideal spot in the back of the tea rooms, which suited my ancient mother perfectly. The rooms are decorated in a cosy and welcoming way, with an attractive mismatch of furniture and crockery.

In our travels we had passed this interesting cafe and promised ourselves a visit. So glad we came. Pleasant staff, varied menu and puddings plus good tea and coffee. For once we did not have time to linger and thus may give fuller review on further visit.

Visited for the first time, what a great choice of cake, sandwiches and paninis. We really enjoyed our light lunch. The lady on the till and also taking orders was very pleasant and helpful without being over the top. Parking outside is a real bonus. The inside is clean and well spaced so you are not crowded. Can't wait to visit again, soon I hope.

We love this little tea rooms. The food is fantastic. If you want fresh food you have to be prepared to wait, but it's well worth the wait. The staff are so lovely. We have been going to the tea rooms since it opened. We miss the young girl who worked at the w/e (Emily) but pleased her replacement is as pleasant and as obliging. Thank you Lightcliffe Tea Rooms you are a real asset to the area.

I was walking my dog near by so thought I would all for a takeout coffee. They were using a delonghi dolce gusto coffee machine. They told me it was only temporary but they still charged me £2.40. They had a sign up stating coffee was £1.80. When I challenged them about this I was told "you get more coffee in a takeout cup and so therefore it's a fair price" the coffee was red hot I could barely hold the cup and it was disgusting, i threw it in the first bin in the park. you can sit in many coffee shops and have a large coffee for that price so I hardly think the price was fair. It's not one of my preferred places to call for coffee as the coffee is never warm enough and the cups are very small for the price they charge. It's just handy to call when walking my dog. I won't be bothering in future.

Went to the tea rooms for a friends Birthday the food is fantastic.. Why is it all chocolate Cake and no Victoria sponge .. Would Defo come back again...Staff 100/100 Always Help full.....Big Thankyou.

I visited Lightcliffe Tea Rooms today for the 3rd time. The food has always been delicious and served with a smile. Today was no different until I got to nearly the end of my omelette and toast and noticed a hair on my plate!! I could not finish the rest of my meal as I found this very off putting. I called the waitress over and she said that she would point it out to the chef and come back to me. We waited a good 5 minutes but she did not return. We got up to leave and the waitress was talking to the chef behind the counter. She saw us but carried on talking so we decided to wait. She finished her conversation and upon realising we were not leaving, started to tell him about the hair. He went into the kitchen and came back out behind the counter and shouted over to me “it isn’t mine”, to which I responded “well it definitely isn’t mine”. He then proceeded to bring the hair from the plate and wave it in front of me in the middle of the tea rooms. At no point was an apology given or any acknowledgement of error. The hair definitely did not belong to me or anyone in my party as it was UNDER the omelette and curly. Had I have noticed it earlier I would have sent my food back. Because it was at the end, I did not require a new meal, all I wanted was to raise awareness so that it hopefully will not happen to anyone else and maybe even a sincere apology. What I actually got was the chef saying to me “I don’t know what you want me to say”. This is not the type of customer service I would expect from Lightcliffe Tea Rooms.

Great to just pop in and have a decent All Day Breakfast or a delicious Panini type sandwich - choose from a good range of fillings etc. Follow this up with one of their fantastic, locally made cakes and a nice cup of tea or coffee.

Had a wonderful lunch here with my partner, lovely setting, staff are very warm and friendly, if your ever in the brighouse area try this little place, you won't be disappointed. PS. The panini off the specials board was great.

My granddaughter loves visiting the Tea Rooms in school holidays as she says they make the best egg mayo sandwiches ever, I too enjoy them, unfortunately there were 2 very noisy ladies at the next table, I don't really want to hear about their drunk escapades but thankfully they left after ten minutes, peace reigned

We had our daughters 5th birthday party in the back room today. She had a fab day! We had an Alice in Wonderland theme (mad hatters tea party) the kids got teacups and had teapots with juice and all of their afternoon tea was beautifully arranged on a tiered cake stand! They felt really grown up! Nick and Amelia were brilliant, always there to help if we needed anything! Would definitely recommend!

We called in here after a lovely walk and food was lovely. Service was a little slow but everyone is served in turn so there are no 'queue pushers'. Good atmosphere and will definitely be returning.

I went the tea rooms for first time. Food was nice but was slow in coming about 35mins but overprice Sorry don't think I will be visiting again.

This little gem in lightcliffe x on our first visit this was a busy business with a friendly atmosphere and even friendlier staff xxx lovely food good value xxx

I have visited Lightcliffe Tea Rooms many times over the years, with both friends and my partner. We have always enjoyed the food and the selection of cakes on offer.

I have been to the tea rooms many times and although very expensive have always enjoyed the food and service has always been of a very high standard unfortunately this was not the case this morning, having ordered my unbelievably expensive breakfast I was confronted by a plate of what can only be described as transport cafe food, the eggs were burnt around the edges, the yokes were rock hard, the bacon was overcooked and tough and the black pudding (what there was of it) was so overcooked it was inedible and all this was dumped on top of each other.I can only assume the chef was having a day off and the cooking was left to someone who had no idea what food is supposed to taste or look like.

I hate having to do this but I have tolerated poor service, late opening and yoyo pricing for too long now. We have spent a lot of money here in the past and because it is local and when you eventuslly get the food it is really nice, although it is definitely on the slide. So, we have tolerated incredibly slow service and we have sat outside on several occasions but I am not going to do it again. This morning we arrived at 9am and sat outside until 9:15 ... they simply have no concept of good service and to be honest there are several other local options and they don't deserve loyalty . Sorry.

I have been to the cafe several times when I visit friends in the area. Each time the service has been friendly and the team Amelia Sally and Susan create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Home cooked food is excellent and I can confidently say the team serve the best bacon sandwich I have ever had - well done ladies keep up the great work

Been several times and always say I won't go again. Service very slow takes ages just to get a coffee, expensive too compared to their local cafes. Breakfast was good but took forever and the room was very chilly.

Have been several times and not disappointed. Excellent home cooked food. Tea with teapots and in china cups. Very attentive staff for whom attention to customers is clearly a priority.

I have visited this tearoom over the past 2 years on and off for lunch or afternoon tea and thoroughly enjoyed my visits and recommended it to friends..the last few visits have not been great, I don't know if it's changed hands but I don't recognise any of the staff... It's looking tired and a little dirty in areas, and the cake fridge has prints all over it, I visited today with my husband for tea and cake, on walking in there was not 1 table clean!!! You could hear all staff talking in the kitchen, a few came out and 1 young lad started wiping the tables with a blank expression on his face, I was seated at this point and on seeing him make his way back to the kitchen, I had to ask if he could clean our table before our order came, which he did...the tables are always wobbly which leaves half your tea on the saucer...the scones were lovely as always, I can't fault the food but the customer service and cleanliness is not as it used to be...I miss the cosy feel, friendliness and professionalism that it used to have..the young staff need training up properly on basic skills and communication...such a shame but I not be visiting again...

Thank you so much to you for making us so welcome especially as it was my birthday! We loved the Salted Caramel Cake too. It's a lovely location with quality food and very popular. See you soon xx

First visit. English Breakfast and Omelette were delicious, as was the white chocolate cake. Tea in China cups was nice too :-). Pleasant staff but service was a bit slow. However, it was rather busy.

Having not been here for a while, had a Sunday visit here with friends for coffee & cake & a catch up. The coffee & cake was lovely, albeit slight confusion with the order! The main problem is the kids corner with the toys great idea to entertain the kids, we have all been there! Coffee catch up whilst the kids play but with parents allowing there kids to roam around the tea rooms getting louder & louder in front of other dining customers doesn't leave for a great experience. Whilst they sit & chat away on the furthest tables away from there own children - is it a Tea Room or a Crèche? Maybe those parents would be better at a play gym!

Not impressed, poor service, not a great selection of cakes etc I had a Cappochino that was small and cool. Loads of kids, noisy.

good little cafe .lots on the menu .good price to .will call again very soon .great staff and very clean .

call in on Friday ,service not very good ,food ok .staff looked very happy ???????????????? .very clean café will go back again some time ,hopefully better.///////

Called whilst out walking in the area. Ordered tea for two and asked for the single piece of Victoria sponge left on the plate in the display cabinet. Paid, then waited and waited and waited. The cafe was quiet and at least 4 staff were visible. I asked if we were going to be served and the assistant looked totally bewildered but admitted that she had taken the order and the slip of paper was there waiting on the counter. Returned to our table and waited another 5 minutes by this time the girl was in the kitchen relating that we had asked to be served. We decided to call it a day and ask for a refund. A further assistant appeared and after some effort was able to refund our money - no apology from any of the staff present! Crazy experience!

I've been going to the tearooms since it opened, and always enjoy the food. The only niggle I have now, is the wobbly tables! My cup of tea, which was in a beautiful cup & saucer, spent more time in the saucer due to constant wobble everytime either myself, or my child, leant on it. It is also starting to look a little shabby in places, could do with a lick of paint etc.
