Mrs Salisbury's Of Wickham Bishops in Maldon

I had the pleasure of experiencing afternoon tea at Mrs Salisbury’s Famous Tea Rooms, and it was nothing short of amazing! The highlight was enjoying it inside the beautifully converted ski gondola, which added such a unique and cozy atmosphere to the occasion. The gondola was tastefully decorated, making it feel both charming and intimate. The afternoon tea itself was exceptional. The selection of sandwiches was fresh and flavorful, the scones were warm and perfectly baked (with plenty of clotted cream and jam, of course!), and the array of cakes and sweet treats was a delight to the senses. Everything was presented beautifully, and you could tell real care went into every detail. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even more special. If you’re looking for something a little out of the ordinary with impeccable food and service, I highly recommend visiting Mrs Salisbury’s and booking the gondola experience. It’s a treat you won’t forget!

Had a lovely lunch at Mrs S with friends. The food is really good and I would definitely recommend a cake afterwards! All of the staff are lovely with a high level of service. They accommodated my dietary requirements really well and have a selection of vegan desserts / cake. I usually get takeaway coffee so it was a treat to eat in!

We went for a birthday celebration and they had put birthday banners up for us at the table. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, with lots to choose from on the menu! Thank you so much lovely ladies xx

Lovely setting for classic afternoon tea and other meals too. Very friendly and helpful staff. Food is always top-notch. Best place in the Wickham Bishops / Gt. Totham area for a great meal with friends / family.

My friend and I went to Mrs Salisbury's at Wickham Bishops to celebrate her 50th birthday. We had the afternoon tea with a glass of prosecco which truly exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was charming, with beams and elegant decor that set the perfect mood. A tiered stand brimming with an array of finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, and an assortment of delicious cakes greeted us. Each bite was a treat, showcasing a blend of classic flavours. The selection of teas was impressive. Service was attentive yet unobtrusive, making us feel pampered throughout the experience. Overall, it was a lovely way to spend an afternoon, blending relaxation with indulgence. I can’t wait to return!

Always great food and super friendly service. Prices reasonable and we were well looked after. Can’t wait to try the new Coggeshall branch soon…

We love going to Mrs Salisbury’s and regularly go for breakfast or lunch. We have always had faultless food and such friendly service.They are very accommodating for kids and it’s great to have the option for indoor our outdoor seating. It’s our favourite place to go! We hired Mrs Salisbury’s for a private function and it was simply perfect. We had a party of 30 (adults and kids) and the space worked really well. The hot buffet was outstanding and all the guests commented on the quality of the food. The team worked so hard to ensure everything went smoothly and as always made us feel very welcome. We thoroughly recommend Mrs Salisbury’s for any occasion.

Our afternoon tea was delicious, the service was excellent, the vegan option was the best I’ve had. Cannot fault our experience. Thoroughly recommend.

My friend and I enjoyed an excellent afternoon tea here. Frequently offered more fresh tea. My friend is gluten free and she says Mrs Salisbury’s is the best.

Best breakfast in Essex. Amazing cakes too! Staff are very friendly and efficient. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Beautiful little gem! ❤️ can’t wait to go back.

A delightful experience from start to finish. Staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive. Delicious afternoon tea.

A great new find for us. Good varied menu, kind and friendly staff, nice outdoor seating area (with shade). As cyclists we particularly enjoyed Brenda the Blender’s coconut milkshake!

Afternoon Tea for my daughter's 41st birthday was such delicious food Nothing was to much trouble but as not long moved into the area will be going regularly to Mrs sailsbury at Wickham Bishop.

As always excellent lunch and service is always so welcoming! Would recommend both restaurants in maldon and wickham bishops

Perfect. Wonderful and generous selection of homemade sandwiches, fruit scone and 4 different sweet treats all washed down with unlimited tea. Very high standard, great attention to details and nothing was too much trouble. We are coming back for more. Well done team.

Had a wonderful Cosy afternoon tea, fab food/service and lovely ladies who served us. One of the best lattes I lv had! We will be back to try the lunch menu Thanks again

Spent an amazing Mother’s Day here with family. 6 of us. The atmosphere was lovely and cosy. The afternoon tea was absolutely delicious and so much of it.. Everything was freshly made with tea and coffee. The staff were very friendly and attentive and made us feel so welcome. I would highly recommend to anyone who likes an afternoon tea & I will making another visit soon.

We had afternoon tea, which was just beautiful. Probably the best I’ve had. The staff are always so friendly and accommodating. Love visiting here.

Very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere and amazing food. We had afternoon tea which was simply perfect. We will definitely go back.

We had afternoon tea and was one of the most delicious ones I’ve had. Nice think bread for the sandwiches and great selection of cakes. They were very accommodating of preferences for the afternoon tea, due to some dislikes. Service was great, friendly and helpful. They wouldn’t pester but always knew when to top up our tea or clear some plates. Unlike a lot of eateries that end up ignoring you once you have your food. Highly recommend, will be back!

I went for an afternoon tea with a friend. The service was great and the food very tasty and fresh. We could have unlimited tea and there is a wide range of herbal teas which were delicious. We were not rushed and the staff are friendly. Would definitely recommend.

First time visiting the wickham bishops restaurant. Was absolutely lovely and had such an amazing afternoon tea. Service and food were both excellent.

Really good service. Service a little Catherine tateesque at times but no complaints about either the service, decor or food!

My neighbours and I enjoyed a cream tea yesterday afternoon it was delicious! The staff and one in particular the lovely East End gal Mrs Perfect couldn't do enough for us she filled the teapot and was on hand for any of our needs! Highly recommend it for a lovely afternoon tea with friends or family!

We had the most amazing afternoon tea today. The surroundings are lovely. The staff are fabulous (especially Mrs Perfect). The food was top notch, beautifully presented, tasty and plentiful. Highly recommended

This was the best Afternoon Tea that I have had. The sandwiches, cakes and scones were so tasty and plentiful (I took some home!) and beautifully presented too. The staff were very friendly, relaxed and attentive. I would 100% recommend. I will definitely be back. Thank you team

Fabulous Afternoon Tea. Scones and Sandwiches probably up there with the best I've had. Staff all extremely friendly and very attentive. I will definitely be going back to try the lunch menu. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a nice place to eat.

Had an excellent afternoon tea. Good selection of cakes, sandwiches and scones - all of which were delicious. Presented really well and staff were lovely.

Fantastic food in a friendly warm atmosphere. Equally as good as their Maldon outlet. This has become our go to place for lunch.

My family who was visiting and I went for the festive afternoon tea with 4 children. I have been before and it was always delicious, but I was also quite impressed how much thoughts went into the kids afternoon tea. Our kids loved it. It was fun and delicious! Thank you!

The festive afternoon tea was outstanding. Well made and delicious sandwiches, scones, fingery things and cakes. The staff are the best around: friendly relaxed and helpful. And the old pub setting with decent parking just adds to the positive experience.

Cannot rate wickham bishops Mrs Salisburys enough. Had an amazing festive afternoon tea. The staff went over and above to make sure we all had an amazing time. Thank you to all who work there. The food was delicious. 🥰

Had afternoon tea with a friend. Was slightly concerned that the parking was hard but once inside it was warm relaxed and friendly. Food was lovely and plenty of it. Service was great, attentive but not over the top. Would recommend.

Mrs Salisburys is the best place to have a fabulous afternoon tea. I have been here numerous times and the food has never disappointed. It is always amazing and the staff are always accommodating warm and friendly.

I took my granddaughter here for her 18th birthday for breakfast. Beautiful place with lovely staff, easy to park and the food was amazing. I will definitely go again

A perfect afternoon tea in Wickham Bishops. Mrs Salisbury’s is such a lovely venue with amazing staff serving delicious food. We enjoyed it so much that we have booked their Christmas afternoon tea in December. Cant wait!!

We often visit when out cycling Food is good and fairly priced - nice selection. Service is excellent. And it’s very clean……. Best place for miles.

Lovely lunch with a friend. Portions were more than enough, I couldn’t finish my meal! I had the cheese and bacon tart with fries, it was so yummy. Service was great and it had a nice buzzy atmosphere. Will definitely return for breakfast one day.

Such a great afternoon tea for celebrating my Grandma’s 90th! First time to this site & loved it, will definitely be back x

Warm welcome and fantastic service from start to finish. We did the Prosecco breakfast which was absolutely wonderful. You choose a dish ( of which there are many including veggie options ) then can have a good choice of drinks such as beer , Prosecco...

Lovely surroundings and efficient/attentive staff. All food is well prepared. Today I had one of their delicious cheese scones and an excellent chocolate milkshake. Dogs very welcome in the outside seating area.

Usually very good if on the expensive side, especially when the scones are very small, yesterdays and over microwaved! So on this occasion really not good at all. Serving yesterdays scones is a false economy. They are relatively cheap to make for heavens sake!

great service. I was really pleased to see a choice of vegan options. I had the Bang Bang Cauliflower salad which was really tasty and filling.

Lovely afternoon tea. Lovely sandwich fillings, freshly made cakes & various teas. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be returning & recommending 👍

My wife and I had breakfast after the school run and what a great experience. Great people, teat, coffee and food. We will be returning.

Popped in for a restful coffee and a snack, sat outside in the lovely garden area at the back. Service friendly and efficient, coffees and the scone with jam and cream were excellent.

Excellent afternoon tea as always! We sat outside as we had the dog with us, he was made very welcome too !
