Orangery Café in East Lothian

Great food and wonderful staff. Would definitely go back.

We went to the Prestonpans shop today for a few baguettes before we started wrapping christmas presents. We always buy BLT baguettes and a Mexican burger or similar and a few scones. Apparently they don’t sell hot food anymore or so we were told and we ended up with cold bacon strips. It was disgusting. Never thought I’d say this about the filling station as I’ve always gave it as a recommendation and held it in high regard in the past. I cooked my own bacon to put on the baguettes in the end but at £4.80 a time I was rather disappointed. No scones left but I could accept that. I am not sure of the reasons for the no hot food thing, is it to do with a licence or what? Just doesn’t have the same feel to it either. Maybe it’s changed hands? Anyway, we are from further up the country and sadly we won’t make the trip again.

Oil and balsamic vinegar bottles just plonked on table should be served in dip bowls - I asked waiter if dish I wanted would be covered in a sauce - he convinced me it would’t but it was completed drowned in sauce - not happy!!

Superb afternoon tea Had a lovely walk around the stunning garden and we enjoyed our delicious sandwiches and selections of sweet delicatessen.Our granddaughter enjoyed her selection of vegan sandwiches and sweets .

Slightly overpriced but tasty staff are friendly and attentive they also do outside functions and catering for all occasions
