Mrs C's Vintage Tearoom in Ashfield

Lovely friendly 1940s tea room. Everything is freshly prepared while you wait & the prices are very reasonable.Mrs C was very welcoming & helpful when we inquired about booking for a large party of friends. We look forward to our next visit.

This is my favourite place in Hucknall for refreshments.I love the setting, the whole 50’s vibes,Mrs.C is so friendly and welcoming and you feel at home or at the very least sat having a chat in ‘ grandma’s parlour’.

Been looking forward to going here for some time. Arrived and sat outside in the sunshine to be told we could only have cake outside and no hot food. (We were going for a breakfast) so asked if we could go inside to which we were told no as we had a pushchair, Mrs C was very rude and abrupt! Instead we went to a cafe were families are welcome!

A great cafe set in 1940s . It brought back loads of memories of family homes. The cake was excellent.

Fabulous little place to go for a warm, welcoming lunch, coffee and cake or breakfast. Set in a small building located just off the main High Street, the interior takes you back in time to the 1950s. Everything you see is from that period: seating, dishes and cutlery, cuisine, music and the dress of the staff there. Fabulous 'Rashion Book' menu presents foods available: delicious home cooked treats. Ideal for vegetarians and gluten free dietary needs. Can get rather busy for afterwards teas so best to book in advance. Well worth a visit.

Visit with my son probably once a month. He is fascinated by the memorabilia and the past. The lady who runs this has fantastic customer service and a positive attitude. It’s definitely worth visiting. Prices are great. We will be back.

Wow, this place is great once you get inside. The decor, the spacing, the clothes the staff are wearing. It's great. Afternoon tea was nice and portion was larger than most but I can't complain as it tasted so great. Customisable and changeable from walking in on preferences on sandwiches or cakes. Lovely server and owner. Can't fault the experience and also the feeling of family and warmth this place offers. Location is central to hucknall up a side road. From the outside it doesn't offer much but walk in and you will be transported back 50-60 years. Don't miss out!

Had wonderful surprise food was very good the only thing I would change is to have the high tea served on cake stands but it’s normal plates

First visit and it definitely won't be my last . The atmosphere is authentic and hospitality excellent . We were so impressed when my husband and I went for lunch with our granddaughter we could not have been made more welcome. Well done for bringing the past alive .

Visited with an organised group of friends & acquaintances. Wasn't sure what to expect, but the ladies from the tea room really did us proud . There was more than enough food for all 15 of us. pork pie, crisps, a good variety of sandwiches & of course everyone's favourite 1950s cake, a gorgeous Victoria Sponge cake. Look forward to going again.

We were given the privilege of having the first post-lockdown large group afternoon tea at Mrs C's Vintage Tea Room, it was absolutely wonderful, everyone had a lovely afternoon, the food was delicious and Mrs C and Sam pulled out all the stops to make sure our afternoon tea was extra special, as I knew they would do. I thoroughly recommend Mrs C's for a visit, for everything from a quick cuppa stop to a special gathering, a really lovely place to be, run by two genuinely lovely ladies.

Excellent tearoom that takes you back to the 1950s, including the staff! Detailed decor was thought of so cardfulky and accurately. Menu suits the decor displayed in the format of a ration book. Includes typical British food choices ranging from ploughman's lunch to perfect scones, plus a lot, lot more. Music in the background is even from that period of time. Seevice is friendly and welcoming. Lovely place for a lunch or simply a tea and cakes (coffee as well). Well worth a visit.

What a lovely little tea room Mrs C is a lovely lady with a bubbly personality and her and her staff always make you feel welcome The afternoon teas and the cakes are excellent Would definitely recommend 😊

Now that the lockdown for COVID-19 is coming to an end, I decided I wanted to go out for a cup of tea. So, I decided to look for a coffee shop that wasn't a national chain. Mrs C's had caught my eye on previous visits to Hucknall, and I decided to give it a try. This cafe has a unique atmosphere which replicates what a coffee shop would have been like in the second World war. The serving staff dress in clothes of the era, music from the war plays in the background and the crockery is good old-fashioned crockery! I had a pot of tea and a cherry scone and both were absolutely delicious! Can't wait to go back!

I was visiting family who live in Hucknall and they recommended a visit to the tea room. I was impressed as soon as i walked in. The tearoom itself was a transportation of times gone by. I was impressed with the decor the 40's music playing. The service was excellent and offered the personal touch. We had a cream tea which was very good value for money. I will certainly pay a visit when I am visiting from Cornwall in the future.

Do wonderful scones with clotted cream & jam, lovely cakes & tea made with tea leaves. Glen Miller & other 40s music playing, Very welcoming

À group of us booked the tea room for a Christmas get together. True to the 1940s the music was Bing Crosby and others of that time singing Christmas music.The sandwiches were lovely with the choice of fillings being available in both brown and white bread. Coleslaw, pickle, pork pie slices and salad was available to serve yourself.The sponge cake and fillings ( strawberry jam and butter cream) was decidedly moreish, but the slice provided was perfect.Liquid refreshments of tea or coffee (state your preference) were served and top ups were available if required.Excellent value for money and worth visiting

I was lucky enough to win a voucher entitling me to a cream tea for two. I know I love the tearoom already so was chuffed to say the least. I took my friend along or rainy Monday afternoon and we indulged in a cherry scone and a pot of tea each. It was all delicious, and the service was super friendly. I fall in love with the decor a little more each time I visit. It’s a small intimate space so i left my pram outside as I had my littlest one with me, and once Mrs C realised it had started to rain she bought it inside and found room without making a fuss which I really appreciated.It’s a fab place and I know I’ll be back soon. Thank you!

A lovely small but cosy cafe with reflections of the 1940s/1950s. The staff/owners? appear to know a lot of the local client’s and are very welcoming. The cakes and scones are very nicedidnothavea main course but looked good. Well worth a visit

I had heard about Mrs C’s tearoom and actually visited for the first time yesterday, it was fabulous! The 1940s setting is so authentic and unique and I really enjoyed looking at all the memorabilia. The food was delicious, I had a home made scone and my mum who is coeliac had a delicious gluten free sandwich.The thing that stood out most was the warm and friendly welcome by Mrs C and her team, there are not many places now where you get such a lovely atmosphere and I will definitely be back and recommending to friends

Visiting today with friends for afternoon tea, this was our first visit to Mrs C's Vintage Tearoom. We went on a recommendation from another friend. Well, what a treat it was - a lot of effort had been made with the 1940's atmosphere and Mrs C herself was a vision! Staff were friendly and courteous, with nothing too much trouble. Doggy bags were supplied without having to ask; I can only comment on the afternoon tea at the moment, but portions were very generous. (I'll have the rest of my quiche and cake later or tomorrow as I'm still stuffed from this afternoon!)Hope to visit again soon for the atmosphere and to sample other yummy items from the very reasonably-priced menu. Well done Mrs C, an unreserved thumbs up from us

I invited a client to meet me close to her architect job today and was wondering where to meet? TripAdvisor to the rescue!Oh my goodness! Mrs C's Vintage Tearoom, take a bow!! Karen and her team are so warm and friendly! You must experience this place, it's refreshingly different. Tea, coffee, ploughman's and cheese on toast were all scrumptious! I didn't expect to find this little gem. Absolutely fabulous!!! I will return and if you don't seek it out, you'll be missing out on a vintage treat.

What a lovely team room this is! I’d heard about it and suggested a visit to a friend. We had such a lovely warm welcome. It really is like taking a trip back in time and being back in grandma’s parlour. It all felt very comfy cosy and the lady who served us was so friendly and smiley. This was a lovely afternoon and we have recommended it to other friends for our next meet up.

We visited this weekend as part of a party of 17 to celebrate my low key ‘baby sprinkle’. Mrs C and staff went above and beyond to cater for our every need and make us feel welcome. We opted for an afternoon tea style buffet filled with sandwiches, crisps, pork pie, quiche, the most delicious Victoria sponge cake and then a scone to take home each as we were all so full. Of course topped off with tea, coffee and soft drinks. The decor of the place is just fab and so many of my friends said how fab it was feeling like you were in someone’s front room back during the war time.Every step was a delight and I can’t wait to visit again. It was very compact and we wouldn’t have fit many more in but it felt small and intimate which is what I wanted.Thanks Mrs C!!

We’ve definitely found our new local! Although slightly more expensive than we’ve paid in the past (£11.95 pp for afternoon tea), the food, portion sizes, surroundings and service were well, well worth the extra few pounds!

Went with husband and daughter for an afternoon treat and thoroughly enjoyed it. Lovely atmosphere and great customer service, would thoroughly recommend a visit to this little gem of a place ❤

Lovely concept tea room. 1940’s era decor and staff dresses accordingly. War time tunes on in the background.

What a lovely little gem. Popped in just to look and ended up eating there. We thought we might have cake after a light lunch, but generous portions meant we had no room. The cakes looked great but seeing the generous slices provided decided us that we wouldn’t manage one, so the next time we pop in it will straight onto those delicious looking cakes. Can’t wait

Lovely little treat with my mum and mother in law! Fabulous! The best scones we’ve ever had! Thank you!

Happened on this place by chance and so glad we found it. The food here is great - cream tea for a tenner and I have yet to finish it. Sandwiches, scones, cakes and quiche in gi-normous portions. Luckily they provide bags so you can take what you can't eat home. Run by a fabulous and friendly team. It's a great vintage setting.Highly recommended. It might be worth booking ahead as it is small and very popular - and rightly so.

nice cup of tea and cake. I was very impressed with the service and the way she was dressed. 5 stars

Lovely place just like going to my nana years ago. Atmosphere was great and played 1940s music. Food was out of this world.Had the afternoon tea and was so filling could hardly walk after.Plentyof variety and everything homemade.Highly recommend a visit and does tea/scones and cakes if don’t want full tea.Would advise to book as was very busy.

Lovely place to enjoy a very good value for money breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea. Thoughtfully set in the 30s/40s period a lot of effort has gone into achieving a charming tearoom. The menu itself is printed in the style of a ration book. The staff dress in the fashion style of the period. The foods are delicious and portions are generous. Afternoon tea costs under £10. Well worth a visit.

Just off the high street and what an absolute joy, offer gluten free too! Ladies are dressed in their vintage attire too.

Visited twice recently. Delicious scones and cakes. Great service. Nice idea for a vintage theme. Will bring my elderly parents soon, they will love it.

I don't know where to start on this gem of a tea room. The 1940's decor was perfect and brought back memories of thing my grandmother had. The food was outstanding, my wife and I both had the Mrs C's afternoon tea. We were treated to beautiful sandwiches, quiche, pork pie, a scone with jam and clotted cream and a nice slice of cake all washed down with a coffee. I honestly couldn't finish it all. If you haven't been then you are missing a Pearl.

Visited with my husband for a Tuesday treat and that's what we got! Mrs c's special is amazing to say the least.the staff are excellent at what they do.cant wait to tell people all about it.

This tea room really is like stepping back in time & the attention to detail is staggering. But what really makes this place stand out is the wonderful welcome & service you get from Mrs C. Nothing is too much trouble for her. She was exceptionally kind & patient with my friend who has dementia. I nearly forgot the food! The triple decker toasties were a hit & the home made quiche almost melted in my mouth. Next time I'm having a cake as they looked lovely. I can't wait to return & really wish I lived closer!

You feel like you're stepping back in time - the décor of the café is perfectly focussed on the 1940s - WW2 period, including the background music. Even staff are dressed the part. Mouthwatering menu, in the form of a Ration book, offers a good range of lunches; or simply traditional cakes - including gluten free options, along with a wide range of teas and various coffees. Staff are very welcoming. Good value for money. Worth a visit.

Visited with my friend last week. Didn't even know it was there and we were late in the day so missed many of the options unfortunately but we will definately visit again to try more. We had a pot of tea and scone each with clotted cream and jam. Scones were excellent, staff friendly, atmosphere lovely and prices reasonable.

Just love this lovely tearoom from the minute you walk in you feel very welcome, the staff all wear authentic 40's dress and the menus are based on ration books which add that little bit of fun to the experience. Without going into detail as you need to experience for yourself the menu choices are wonderful all complimented by 40's music quietly playing.

Went here for the special tea. Every thing was so good. The best quiche of my lif. The lady is. So friendly she calls you darling. Super 1940s atmosphere complete with vintage clothes. Amazing experience and well worth a special trip.

Went here after getting the all clear and i wanted pork pie and mushy peas, Mrs C didn't normally do what i wanted but she went above and beyond to make sure i had what i wanted, would definitely go again and would recommend to everyone.

This was not our first visit and isn’t our last.....we first went for a mother’s day treat! This shop is a hidden gem......when you first walk in you get a lovely warm cosy feeling and the staff are lovely and helpful! The tea room is decorated like a 40’s front parlour room it’s great and makes you feel like you have gone back in time. Now let’s get to the food.....wow.....we all had cream tea which was sandwiches,quiche,drink,two cakes and you get a lot for £10 none of us left hungry and we left with doggy bag as couldn’t eat last cake . Mrs C’s is also very child friendly and our 7 year old loved the whole experience! Our other son at 26 was learning how to make tea with tea pot,strainer and was nice to see as these things just don’t exsist much anymore and let’s not forgot tea cosy......Mrs C’s have not ignored the little details that make the visit so much more than just having lunch! Our next visit is in July for my birthday and I’ve asked for table for 8-9 of us which I thought would not be possible as space limited but cosy in the tea room but Mrs C’s haven’t let me down and look forward to our next visit. well done for such a new business.

Beautiful little tea room..excellent home made food..and Mrs c was very welcoming and attentive..nothing was too much trouble.would highly recommend.

Wow go back in time my wife and i visited Mrs Cs tearoom on a weekday afternoon it had a few people in but from the moment we stepped inside we were treated a very friendly welcome,the decor of the place is very nostalgic and very nice the tea is made in the old fashioned way tea leaves and in a pot ,nice touch wont say anymore but go and experience this place yourself you wont be disappointed.

Really enjoyed our time with Mrs C, she even got mushy peas in for my daughter and myself. Karen is so welcoming and friendly. Would recommend to anyone to go to the tearoom.

A delightful little place tucked away just off the High Street. Nice selection of cakes and scones and all very fresh. Hospitality is friendly. I’ve been a few times now for both savoury and sweet, it takes me back to childhood and sitting in my grandmothers parlour!! My mum and dad loved it too- You can’t beat a bit of Vera Lyn. I’m going again next week with my friend as she hasn’t been yet. I can’t recommend this place highly enough, a welcome addition to Hucknall.

Me and friends go every week sometimes more just love everything about the place cannot fault the food decor and the people are so welcoming it feels like home I tell everyone to go see you soon x

It was a wonderful experiance me and my son loved every moment of it mrs c and staff was so polite and nothing was any trouble will be visting very soon as its his birthday and wants to visit again

Myself and my children visited and had the most delicious afternoon tea we have ever had, everything tasted so good! The service was excellent, Mrs C and her staff were so friendly and welcoming, will definitely be visiting again soon!!

A little gem of a place. Was recommended to try by a local retailer, and we were not disappointed. Absolutely superb, from the moment we entered to the moment we left. Delicious homemade menu offering something for everyone’s taste, with lashings of lovely hot tea’s. Friendly and welcoming staff made our visit a pleasure. Will make this our regular stop off when visiting locally. Many, many thanks and see you all again very soon.

I visited this place with my husband it a lovely clean and a friendly atmosphere the food is a 1 and so is the tea and coffee would recommend a visit and very vintage too so go and enjoy

Mrs C's is A MUST!! Can't praise it enough !!lovely welcoming homely atmosphere and gorgeous food ,nothing is too much trouble like a 5 star hotel. Mrs C's special is excellent very yummy and great value for money at £9.95 sandwiches quiche pork pie crisps,scone jam cream , coffee/tea & CAKE!! Karen & her staff who are always impeccable dressed in vintage style are warm and welcoming in this day and age such service and genuine love of what your doing is rare so thank you see you AGAIN soon xx

We came for coffee and cake. A lovely vintage themed cafe with welcoming and pleasant staff also dressed in themed clothes. Scone with cream and jam was lovely. Thanks so much and we will be back.

This tearoom not only offers a mouthwatering menu of delicious cakes, snacks and drinks, its décor is set in the 1940's/50's, giving you that feeling of being there yourself! Even the staff are dressed the part: the menu is also presented in the form of a Ration Book! The choice of food is good and typical of the time (e.g Victoria Sandwich, toasted teacakes, freshly made scones, to name a few) but deliciously presented and freshly made with a unique twist! A good range of fresh leaved tea is available (its speciality!) There are also gluten free options available. You may want to book in advance as it can be filled very easily. Well worth a visit!
