Mrs Dale's pantry in Cheshire East

After our excellent tour of LMH in conditions that made you feel for the poor workers of the day, we were ready for coffee and cake. Separate pots of filter coffee and a jug of very hot milk; cheese scones and a slice of Bakewell, just what we needed. Even on a poor weather day, both cafés were busy, hopefully you will get a seat.

I was shocked at the smallness of my cheese sandwich. The Tony pot of pickle was tasteless. The accompanying packet of crisps was the only high point. Staff on duty appeared to be do disinterested in servicing almost left without purchasing anything. Had to sit outside as the last indoor seat had no table. The table had been taken by another customer who wanted 2 tables for some reason - they were a party of 2. It was such a cold day felt very unhappy the staff did not return the table to allow me to sit inside. Very poor customer service. poor refection on the National Trust. In future will either bring a picnic or eat elsewhere.

After walking around Little Moreton Hall which is a great place. Stopped off for lunch 🥙 in The Pantry what great food and coffee ☕️. Made very welcome by the staff and it’s very child friendly. The is seating outside in the gardens and you can feed the ducks 🦆. All told a great place to eat.

We popped in while visiting Little Moreton Hall, The scones and jam, cup of tea, were just what was needed to hit the spot! When we go back, I'll make sure that I'm hungrier. Very reasonably priced, helpful, friendly staff and comfortabe surroundings all helped to make this a pleasant visit.

We had the cheese flan and the very Large pie served with salad and homemade slaw, followed by plum pudding and cream mmmmmmmmm!

Called for a drink and sandwich. Outstanding service from a long standing staff member. Ham sandwich was fresh and delicious with a very flavoursome fresh salad. Yes it is pricey but it does reflect the location and quality. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful cheese and fruit scones very large with choice of extra cheese and chutney or cream and jam.

Fuimos con unos amigos y fuimos al restaurante después de visitar poco Moreton Hall.Este lugar está limpio y ordenado, siempre es una buena señal en mi libro, nos examinamos el menú y decidir. Mi esposa y yo pasamos un huevo en pan integral con mayonesa una buena ensalada mixta de hojas, muy agradable. Nuestros amigos tenían atún en marrón, de nuevo con ensalada y un plato de cosechas perdidas de espinacas y queso cubierto con huevo escalfado encima, puede parecer extraño, pero nuestro amigo terminó el mucho y dijo que era muy bonita.Teníamos café o té y una brillante agua mineral. Los precios no eran elevados y la calidad de la comida era muy buena. Sin duda volvería.

Almuerzo maravilloso que dio en el clavo. Los sándwiches de jamón fresco y lleno profundamente con jamón delicioso. La ensalada era una enorme variedad de cosas para ensaladas. La tarta de limón llovizna era para morirse. Mi marido scones de queso eran enormes y dijo eran deliciosos, y su café y tarta de nogal. Buena relación calidad-precio con un servicio rápido amable.

it was a lovely day so we were able to sit outside , it was late on a Sat afternoon just before closing .Had it been earlier there would not have been enough seats. the price of the ice cream was very expensive £2.50 a scoop if you had a couple of children a fiver for 2 ice creams! the pots of tea We had tea for 3 cost almost £7 ! So that's £12 already.i know the properties cost a lot to maintain but surely the prices could be more family friendly?

El personal era agradable. El salón de té en sí es bastante pequeña, pero ofrece asientos al aire libre. El pastel era delicioso y había una buena variedad de pasteles. No hay mucho que ofrecer para personas poco aunque como las rebanadas de pastel eran enormes. Tienen una caja de almuerzo disponible que quizás sería mejor para los niños más pequeños. Los precios eran muy altos, incluso para una propiedad de National Trust con una lata de coca cola 2,20 libras, así que no siendo razonable para cualquiera con un presupuesto ajustado o con una gran familia para alimentar.

Staff were very friendly right from entering the pantry.The waitress gave me a sample of the soup before i decided to buy which was a good idea rather than buy something you dont like.Delicious soup,all fresh and lovely cake and sandwiches.Salad also very nice and fresh.NT properties are always expensive when you eat there and this was no different.Worth it though as it was all so nice.I thought it strange that onesoup ordered with sandwiches came in a tea cup rather than a bowl !

Tuvimos un aperitivo cuando visite el Hall. Muy sabrosa sopa, sándwiches frescos con ensalada maravillosa/con gusto y exquisito pastel. El servicio era excelente y todo el personal era agradable y educado. Sí, es caro pero tienes que recordar el entorno y los alrededores. Se volverá...

Té y café. Fabulosos pasteles y comida. Es pequeño pero encaja bien a su impresionante ubicación en Moreton Hall.

Comida excelente, acogedor y atento personal. Un poco pequeña, pero en consonancia con los alrededores, vale la pena una visita.

I haven't visited since they opened/renamed this, but how delightful to know that the cafe at LMH is named after my 2x great grandmother, Ann Dale. She used to sell cream teas on the lawn of the Hall way before LMH became a tourist destination or was owned by the NT

Having paid almost £10 each to visit the Hall, we were quite surprised to find that the food and drinks were quite dear as well. However, we took the bull by the horns and asked for one cream tea comprising of 2 scones and a pot of tea- which was more than adequate for us both and at £6.75 worked out extremely reasonable! A careful reading of the menu will give good value for money. Lovely surroundings, very pleasant staff and first class food- just be careful of the pricing.

Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire is beautiful but when you go to eat in-house then the problem happens. the food is super, don't get me wrong. it is home made and really nice. We had soup over £5 in a fairly small bowl, but with a big chunk of bread. The coffee was expensive as well but I managed 4 cups of tea for a pot for one and the coffee was similar, but did I want 4 cups? Cakes were really nice and Moorish but expensive. So for a really nice tea use the pantry but be aware of the cost.
