Miss Mollett's High Class Tea Room in Ashford - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We stopped here on a bike ride for coffee and decided to get cake too. The cheese scone was excellent and the coffee fairly decent. The woman who served us was really friendly and it was a pleasant place to sit outside.

This is a great tea room. Very quirky decor. slightly limited breakfast menu, for a non meat eater, but the bread was thick, and for the others, the bacon sandwiches were enjoyed. Lovely cakes and scones for later in the day. Friendly helpful staff. the only down side was the limited hours. Well worth a visit though. Eight of us arrived and we were dealt with very well.

I have visited this little gem for years, but on this visit I was really disappointed ☹️ tea bags was the ultimate upset here… we go here for the tea leaves as they are so nice! The scone was cold in the middle … on a Sunday only tea and cake from 2.20 pm this is not a way to run a business this day and age.. we won’t be visiting again anytime soon.

Treated my Mum to afternoon tea today and it was incredible. They happily catered for a vegan option too and the selection far exceeded any tea I’d had before. The food was delicious, a lovely warm welcome despite how busy they were and the service throughout was excellent. Can’t wait for the next special occasion to go again!

I’ve literally just got home from this beautiful tearooms in Appledore, what an amazing place, the afternoon was the best we have ever eaten, fresh tasty sandwiches, quiche was delicious and melt in the mouth sausage rolls and scones with cream and jam and finished with some delicious cakes. Plenty of tea and water. This place is run by some amazing ladies, so friendly and we had a lovely chat. Would highly recommend you try here.

We had the afternoon tea, an excellent choice, with both the quality and quantity of the food provided, matching any London hotel afternoon tea. The service was efficient, friendly and unobtrusive, all rounded off by the outstanding ambience. Thank you for a splendid afternoon.

Oh wow! A beautiful quaint gem. I booked high tea for 14 ladies to celebrate my 70th birthday. What a fabulous choice I made. It was all perfect. We received a warm friendly welcome from the owner and her helpers. They made sure we were comfortable and cared for. The tea room is stunning, cosy and refined. We had vegetarians in our group and a couple of ladies with dietary restrictions that they catered for amazingly. The food was fresh, high quality and absolutely delicious. What a fantastic memory I have for my 70th. Thankyou.

Reserved table for 2.45 pm, 7 adults and 2 year old for Mothers Day tea and cake yesterday. Had wonderful time. I went in absolutely starving, intending to order everything, but after cup of tea and slice of 'Chocolate Indulgence', I was full. Stayed just over an hour, girls very friendly. Would def recommend, in fact taking my mother at Easter.

gorgeous little tea room! everything is home made and presented beautifully. Afternoon tea was perfect and the quality definitely reflects the price! Staff are very welcoming and accommodating. Will definitely be visiting again when the weather is warmer with more friends and family!

Had the best cream tea with friends for a 60th Birthday, food was delicious, everything was perfect… Such a beautiful place and they couldn’t be more accommodating… Thank you so much…

The best scones in my life! Miss Molletts has cozy environment with nice eating utensils. Appledore Village is very quiet with free parking spaces.

Absolutely delightful tea room with delicious food and wonderful decor. The best I’ve been to in England. Highly recommended.

Excellent lunch and superb service. Only downside is it is dog friendly. Such a beautiful tearoom but very small and definitely wouldn’t go in if I saw a dog in their, hygiene, allergies, dogs and food don’t go together for my friends and I.

Super tea/coffee with delicious cakes in warm and friendly atmosphere. Beautifully decorated tea room. We will return. Sue and Terry

A very welcoming classic dog friendly English tea room with real china and home made cakes and light meals. In the centre of the the pretty village of Appledore and near the Royal Military Canal which is good for dog walks. Other shops nearby include antique dealers and a general stores plus a friendly public house.

Treated my sister to afternoon tea for her birthday. Wow!! we loved everything about the tearooms. The food was delicious, generous portions and we were provided with boxes to bring home what we couldn’t eat. Loved the surroundings and the ambience……really friendly owners that made for a very special afternoon treat. We would highly recommend and already planning a return visit soon……..thank you

Went here for afternoon tea for 2 friends birthdays. There were 10 of us in total. The first upsetting thing was we were split onto 2 separate tables, 6 on one and 4 on another. It is a small tea room, but we could of been advised that they couldn't accommodate us all on one table before hand. The next thing was the cost for what we actually got. We received ONE 3 tiered stand per table with a mixture of tiny finger sandwiches, tiny cakes and a few small sausage rolls and quiches. A large scone was also on a separate plate with jam and cream. We were offered one drink but had to purchase any extra. No Oat/Soya milk on offer either. This cost £25 per head so they received £300 in total, total rip off! I appreciate overheads for the establishment but each tiered stand must of cost a maximum of £10 to put together. The food was tasty but just not worth what they charged. Hate to leave bad reviews but I hope the manager may see this and think again about what things cost.

Called in for a cup of coffee on our way home from the coast. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the freshly-made coffee was very tasty. The cakes and snacks on offer (although we did not try them) looked delicious. There's seating both inside and outside and, although dogs are not allowed inside, they are welcome at the tables outside. A quaint place well worth a call.

Just charming: beautiful small cafe / tea room in the charming village of Appledore. Service could not be friendlier, delicious food - light lunches and Kentish cream teas. Dog friendly too. Highly recommended, and suggest you book ahead as it’s understandably popular

What a special place!! We were welcomed with open arms, it was a busy day at Appledore Gardens Open. Our daughter and 2 dogs along with us were welcomed and treated so nicely. It was a super little cafe with special people serving there.thank you for making a holiday memory so special.

Beautifully decorated tea room with the most amazing afternoon tea selection. Would recommend & definitely will return

Great cafe and great service, even set up a table and chair for me outside as the rest were taken.

What a fab tearoom! When you walk in, its a true wow factor with all the glitzy decorations and LOADS of delicious cakes to choose from. Owner and staff all really friendly and attentive. Had a really enjoyable lunch and general experience. Really calm, kind owner. Couldn't recommend this place highly enough but if possible, I would recommend booking a table ahead of your visit as very small and very popular although there are outside tables and chairs. Dog friendly inside too! Perfect little find! Thank you for making our day so special and memorable whilst on holiday from Somerset!

Disorganised service, arrived was informed all booked inside so took a table outside, waitress back and forth no offer of a menu so proceeded to go inside to ask, I was given a menu, waitress came outside served another couple who arrived after us but were quick to say they wanted service, back and forth went the waitress, no oat milk’ no pasty or a juice one table sadly who had ordered didn’t get what they wanted off the menu this went on for 15 minutes, still ignored so again go inside to ask do I need to order inside was informed no be out shortly…,, I gave up after a further 10 minutes waiting. So didn’t get to sample what looks like lovely food really poor service possibly inexperienced and run out of items on a Sunday lunchtime isn’t good

Stopped in today as we happened to drive past after a day out and saw the lovely display outside which drew us in. We were served by a lovely young girl (sorry didn’t catch her name) me and my partner had a jacket potato which was lovely and crisp on the outside and full of buttery potato on the inside. My mother in law had a homemade sausage roll which she throughly enjoyed, she especially loved the homemade onion chutney that come with it. Tea is served the good old fashioned way from a tea pot and you are given China cups to drink from. We did see the afternoon tea being served to another family but sadly as this needs to be ordered in advanced we couldn’t have, but we are definitely going to book in so we can sample that too!

This place has the potential for 5 but I had the ploughman’s and the bread was the crust of the loaf! Come on is this what good looks like! Also, I prefer a plate than a slate roof tile to eat off. The service and atmosphere is very good, I will give it another go!

Miss Mollets is the quintessential English tea room! Tasty tea and cakes, welcoming and extremely helpful owner/staff! Highly recommend a stop at this delightful establishment!

Had the most amazing, birthday afternoon tea here with my partner and our very well behaved dog! There was a fabulous selection of tasty treats including yummy freshly made dainty sandwiches, homemade sausage rolls and quiche, delicious cakes and macarons, and the best scones I've ever tasted! Everything was beautifully presented with excellent service too. Well done to Carly and her team!

We enjoyed a light lunch, friendly staff. this is a quaint and very beautiful Appledore we were a party of three, there is a large choice of food on the menu. It is a good idea to book a table.

This is a lovely quaint and quirky little place for a light lunch. Allpledore is a lovely little village but book to reserve a table inside.

Stopped here on a walk from Appledore station back to Rye. Luckily there are tables outside as our boots were filthy from the footpath crossing the fields. I don't know another tea shop that makes tea and scones so pleasureable. Individual pot (choice of flavours,...

Went for my Birthday, best tea room we have been too, Lovely scones and homemade cake. Cant wait to go back.

We popped in here on Saturday 3rd May whilst visiting Appledore. Great little tea room,had cheese scone and plain ones they where lovely and best cup of tea ive had in ages. Highly recommend if you visit Appledore.

We had a lovely visit to this little tearoom on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Appledore is a beautiful place and the tearoom is right on the street, tables outside and inside a pretty, traditional tearoom. We loved all the mismatching china. The scones were delicious with loads of jam and clotted cream (I am so fed up with the stingy portions served in some places, not so here) and delicious cake. Another big bonus is loose leaf tea, no tea bags here! The lady who served us was welcoming and friendly. Will definitely visit again.

Great food, lovely owners and great location. The cream tea was amazing as were the sandwiches and other food on offer. Highly recommended!

Today I went for my birthday with a group of friends for afternoon tea it’s was lovely and very generous portions and lovely cakes and loads of top ups of tea staff were very attentive and friendly . Will be back , fully recommend .

We have been a few times because we booked them for afternoon tea at our wedding and unfortunately we had to try all of their cakes.... They were fantastic! Their cakes are soo good as are their scones and they don't skimp on the clotted cream and jam either! We love all of the vintage crockery and you really get the feeling that all elements of their food are thought through being either hand made or locally sourced. At the wedding all we had to do was give them the space to set up and a few instructions and they took care of everything, they really helped to make it a special occasion. Heartily recommended as both a tea room and a caterer of special occasions!!

Dropped by after a walk at Rye Harbour. Great cup of tea and excellent cake. Staff friendly and welcoming, will definitely be back.

We went in this little tea room in a beautiful little village called Appledore in Kent we had tea and home made cake for two it was lovely.

Excellent tea & amazing homemade cakes , very good service , it is advisable to book in advance as it’s a very popular tea rooms .

What a little gem. Lovely cosy vintage cafe in the lovely village of Appledore. The cakes were superb, excellent cheese scones (I’m very fussy about my cheese scones) and delicious meringues. A great selection of teas and nice that they give you hot water to top up. They were quite busy and were a bit overwhelmed so it was a little hit and miss if they noticed you hadn’t been served for a while but as long as you’re not in a hurry this is a very good tea room.

Nice tearoom,the cakes were lovely particularly the banana,date & walnut cake.The only downside is difficulty parking here.Managed to just about squeeze in on the first visit but on the second time we gave up,even the village hall carpark was full.

Dropped in here for a spot of lunch meeting as a group of four. The place is a lovely old fashioned tea shop with Tea served in a tea pot with leaf tea and strainer. The cafetiere of coffee was a bit short on content and could only get a cup and a half of coffee in the small china cups but the columbian coffee was nice. Salmon and cheese sandwiches served with a nice portion of kettle chips were lovely has was the coffee and walnut cake.

Twice now I have sought this little haven out, and all for the honey butter that comes with the best laid scones of mice and men....

It as been awhile since our last visit and again we were not disappointed. Although it’s classed as a ‘Tea Room’ they have a great selection of special meals which are very reasonably priced and to suit most tastes. Our tea and coffee was excellent and the cake was wasn’t half bad either. The tearoom is traditional with china cups and saucers and proper tea and coffee. All food and cakes are homemade and of exceptional quality. If you are ever visiting or passing through Appledore then it is a must visit. So much so I have reserved a table for next week so we will not be disappointed. In fact we are taking two friends who we know have never been before.

Excellent tea room. Great cream tea and the coffee and walnut cake was to die for. Friendly staff and good service. Well worth a visit in the pretty village of Appledore

Set in the very nice village of Appledore in Kent and offers a great selection on lunches and especially cream tea with lots of choice of jams and great tea. Well worth a return

Amazing Scones and lovely cakes and very friendly staff in the lovely village of Appledore in the Kent countryside.

Situated along the pretty High Street of Appledore on the Romney Marsh in Kent, this tea room is well worth a visit. Tables are pleasantly arranged within the inside as well as outside seating for sunny days. The menu is varies, providing toasted tea-cakes to Ploughman's Lunches. Afterniin cream teas are a must.

We spent a lovely afternoon at the tea rooms. The cakes were delicious. Our only reservation was the fact that they do not accept credit cards. It did not affect us, as we had a gift voucher from a friend, but others around us found it difficult as it was a Sunday and they were unable to access cash.

Booked the high class tea, it was great. generous amount of food, tea topped up, lots of cake choices. Great vintage cutlery and crockery.

We stopped here for tea and tea cakes and found a little bit of old fashioned charm of a forgotten time Service was perfect , host lovely and tea great Thank you

I called in for coffee whilst walking the Saxon Shore Way, This is a small tea room. The coffee was very good, as was the fruit scone with honey butter that I had to eat. The tables are a little small and close together and they are a cash only establishment. Service was OK. The lunch menu looked tempting. I have to say that the words 'high class' in the title seem a bit pretentious. Tablecloths are plastic. It's not the Ritz!

We stopped at this small tearoom with its china teacups and tablecloths for a late lunch. We shared a sausage roll with salad which was very tasty but not very big (husband was sorry he had agreed to share!) I then had a blueberry cake which was a bit dry and very sweet and my husband had scones which were rather dry too but came with a good amount of clotted cream and sour cherry jam. It is quite pricey for afternoon tea. Waitor and waitresses were very friendly and they obviously have their local regulars.

We called in with our 12 week old Guide Dog puppy and we're made most welcome by the friendly and attentive staff. Excellent choice of teas and snacks especially the Victoria Sandwich

Visited this tea shop over lunchtime today. On the menu, it said to refer to the blackboard for the day's quiche, so my friend and I both ordered the smoked salmon and asparagus quiche with salad as on the board. It arrived, we started to eat our meal and realised it was an onion quiche not the smoked salmon and asparagus one as advertised. We continued eating as we assumed they had run out of the quiche we had ordered and didn't want to make a fuss. When the bill came, I mentioned we had been served the wrong quiche, and expected some reduction in the cost ( surely an onion quiche is cheaper than a smoked salmon one?). However, as we hadn't mentioned 'the mistake' initially, there could be no change to the bill. (Surely we had to eat into it to establish it was the wrong one in the first place!) No apologies were forthcoming - I paid and left as I didn't want to make a scene in front of my South African friend. I wasn't impressed and the salad was bulked out with a hugh portion of potato salad. Sorry to be negative - the place looked so inviting but I won't be returning.

Having recently moved to the village after 6 years in nearby Tenterden, I decided to pop in on the way home from a lunchtime with friends at a hostelry in Tenterden. As Miss Mollett's staff will testify, I have called in virtually every day since! They have my sympathy!!!! Always friendly, always attentive the staff are terrific and they serve the best toasted teacake and jam in Kent, bar none. Thanks Miss Mollett to all the team. x

We booked Miss Mollett’s High Class Tea Room for a private function to celebrate my Mum’s 90th! Their amazing service, attention to every details and the quality were superb.
