Went in for lunch. Were pointed to a table and left to sit for 20 minutes. Made attempts to prompt the waitress to take our order. Eventually stood up and at this moment I assume a manager came over and said they were busy. Fine fair enough, but at least acknowledge us and keep us informed. As an ex hospitality manager myself - shocking service. Take your money elsewhere!

The staff were lovely. My husband had the breakfast bacon you could read a newspaper through tastless sausage, he left alot.not like him he eats anything. I had the omelette with cheese and tomato, could not taste cheese and raw tomatoes in it . We had 2 coffees each.£49 for the 2 meals and drinks, what a rip off We both came out feeling sick . You need to get your act together.

Popped in for afternoon tea with a voucher. We come every year for my Birthday and this year was still fabulous. Service has got alot quicker and our servers looked after us asking if we wanted more coffee. The ham in the sandwichs was particularly delious and the warm scones were just yummy. Coffee from here is the best and yes I say that every year! Best of all you can have as many cup as you wanted. Shame it's a hours drive to get there but we will be back!

AVOID - Was so excited to finally come here but left thoroughly disappointed. The food quality for the price is terrible!! Ordered the tuna sandwich they asked if I wanted it toasted I said yes lightly toasted. It came out boiling hot tuna, hot spinach wilted, cucumber hot. They took it back to give me one not toasted but again to my disappointment it came out dry and bread rock hard from where they popped another pre made roll out the fridge. My mum ordered a £15 BLT and it was worse than a cafe, absolutely tiny and dry, chips came out microwaved as they had absolutely no flavour. I think everything is just microwaved so it comes out pipping hot to mask that nothing has flavour and everything is pre made. Shocking quality for the price. I was thinking this place was going to be amazing 😭

I came here for an afternoon tea after receiving it as a present for a birthday on “buy a gift”, and was extremely disappointed. The food was sparse and was not the best quality. The woman who served us lacked communication skills severely and after telling us the drinks were refillable, never came back over to check if we wanted another. The finger sandwhiches looked unappealing and dry and my friend quickly put it back down once finding a hair in it. We felt extremely ignored and just left in a silent cafe with no idea of what we were supposed to do. We decided to get up and leave after eating the scones to which they just said “thanks” across the counter. Will not be going back!! The only nice cake was the small chocolate one, the others were WET and had little to no taste. Since leaving the cafe, my friend has horrific stomach pains and feels sick… mentioned by another review left on here?! The food hygiene there is horrific 🤢

We came because we had a voucher for afternoon tea. We were pleasantly surprised. The service was excellent. The young girl serving was very helpful and pleasant. The tea was delivered in a tea pot (a plus). The sandwiches were excellent and very fresh. The scones were hot and really nice. The cakes were also brilliant (especially the chocolate ones). All in all a great experience with very fresh food and plenty for two people. We've had afternoon tea in many places and this ranks among the best (including the "posh" ones)

We were gifted an afternoon tea, which was enjoyable, however… If you were to pay for it yourself it isn’t really worth it. Obviously the food you have is only small but it is the experience that counts and unfortunately our experience wasn’t very good! I am very understanding that shops get busy and are sometimes understaffed, however the cafe was almost empty, which was a factor towards the sort of awkward atmosphere. But that could have been our timing However the staff were very insistent that we payed online which I really was having trouble with, and as a young tech savvy person, I can only imagine how difficult this could be for someone older. On top of that, we weren’t welcomed that well which is pretty important Eventually I payed at the till and we were served, all was well but due to the awkward atmosphere we didn’t stay for any refills 🫣😅 Ahh well it was an experience but we probably won’t be doing it again

Visited Patisserie Valerie on Fremlin Walk at the weekend for an afternoon tea with my family. Whilst most of the staff were pleasant and accommodating, we found one lady (black hair, European accent) to be rude and abrasive. After purchasing an additional slice of chocolate cake, which we found to be terribly dry, we returned it to the counter and were met with disdain. Initially, we were told "it's not dry, I felt it myself" - I hope this does not mean she is touching each individual slice of cake directly. When we stated that it was, in fact, dry, she remarked "Well, I'm not giving you your money back". When we stated we wanted a replacement of a different type of cake, she was ruder still, dismissive, and almost threw the replacement slice at us. I've worked in food service, and her attitude was repugnant. There is no call to be so rude to customers, and dismissive of their complaints, particularly when they are not being rude to staff. I would like to add, the rest of the staff were delightful and the overall atmosphere was great. It was a busy store, the food was lovely, and, other than that interaction, the visit was pleasant overall. It pains me to give a low Service score, but I cannot overlook the attitude of the lady at the register.

Went in to order a couple of slices of cake to take home for teatime. Unfortunately when I returned home and unpackaged the cake it was stale. They charge a premium for cake so I find this completely unacceptable. I think they give customers who takeaway the stale cakes while the customers who dine in get the fresh ones. I won’t be returning.

I visited the Valerie patisserie in London and was expecting something similar when I walked into the Maidstone store, which is completely different to the stores I have visited before. Sad place, outdated furniture, no music. I was served a stale cake with rotten strawberries on top, which I asked to change and received the same cake. I showed this piece of cake to the waiter and asked if she would eat it, and she said - but it was not moldy. Really? I'm not a picky eater or one to complain without reason, but this was too much. The staff is friendly, there is nothing to complain about and I think it’s not their fault that they have to sell expired (it seems to me) products. please do something about this.

We were unable to eat everything and were offered a lovely box to take the remainder home in together with a carrier bag. The premises are vey nicely set out and we were very comfortable. The staff were most polite, helpful and professional, giving excellent service. Have no hesitation in recommending this establishment and we are looking forward to our next visit.

Visited here on the 12th April, service was slow but friendly. We were told that some of the menu was not available due to a trainee chef being in situ. I ordered the salmon salad. At the time the salad looked and tasted ok, a bit oily and nothing special but ok. When we left I had a strange metalic taste in my mouth but thought it would pass. Within an hour and a half I was experiencing severe stomach cramps to the point I asked my friends to take me home. Once home I experienced several severe bouts of diarrhea. I spent the rest of the day/evening feeling sick, going hot and cold and in pain. Other people in the establishment that day had complained about their food. I won't be going back. I have messaged them twice with no response.

Very poor service eating in, and abhorrent public health safety. They employ a stringent exercise with track and trace registering, but otherwise they seem oblivious to even the basic hygiene standards. We wanted to sit outside, but as it transpired the staff never had the time to clean the tables unless someone specifically asked to, people in the end have been cleaning their own as best they could, no sanitiser etc. Yet the waitress wouldn't take my order at the till until I successfully registered with track and trace and my mobile connection was failing, no sympathy there, and a large queue formed behind. In the meantime someone else took the table they cleaned for us, and the staff proceeded with serving them with our drinks while we were waiting for one more table to be cleaned. When we pointed out the mistake they just moved the drink that was untouched to another ( dirty ) table, after the other customer have had it in front of her for a few minutes. I had to insist that they finally clean the table for us, after waiting for more than half an hour outside (on a chilly autumn day) and asked to replace the coffee previously served to another customer and now cold - the waitress asked me why?!? The table was eventually cleaned and the cakes and new drinks finally arrived after nearly an hour to and fro , the waiter apologised for the mistake, but the experience was very much spoiled. If i didn't pay in advance we'd have walked away as we were getting so annoyed by the whole thing. Next time will stick with the trusted Costa or Paul if it is a special occasion.

Crepes were clearly microwaved and dry, pretty depressing in size and quality. Iced tea literally a cold tea in a Latte glass with a bit of lemon in it; milkshakes no better than a Nesquick sachet in milk. Staff seems lost and confused, not very welcoming.

We had a standard afternoon tea voucher from Groupon. We popped in about 11.30am just to ask about booking and sandwich fillings. The lady we spoke to explained that the afternoon tea didn't start till noon then she spoke us through the sandwich fillings. We then asked about swapping the salmon and cream cheese for more of another. Her response was "I dont care about that at the moment as your not coming in to eat yet....." and walked off. If we didnt have the voucher we wouldnt of come here to eat. We went off and returned an hour later. We were served by a pleasant young gentleman and was happy to swap the salmon sandwiches. The drinks were hot and the afternoon tea arrived promptly, but then we were disappointed again. When my partner picked up his chicken and pesto sandwich it had a small piece of salmon on it!!! Now my main concern is what if he had a fish allergy. Do they not use separate knives? Is this a cross contamination issue?

I had to buy separate portions of chocolate cake and made a cake. It was not that great, I have found it a bit dry, maybe it was not fresh since my birthday is the 2nd of January. I considered a bit overpriced the cakes for the size of portions. The prices of the candles are expensive as well a packet of 4 for £3,79

I have been there about four times since it opened and was looking forward to a first afternoon tea for three of us on a Friday afternoon. I was quite shocked to find a bare window display and just a few sad looking and expensive patisseries inside. Gone were those gorgeous continental delights. The coffee was good. I had expected a continental themed tea (miniatures of their previously lovely cakes) but the pastries on offer were tasteless. The scones and jam were nice. The sandwiches included one dried up slice of white bread, not good! The teenagers I was with didn't want to make a fuss so we kept quiet. I will go back to this or another branch but only if the nice cakes are on offer...especially la tarte aux framboises!

We visited on a Saturday evening for a family birthday. The food (Cheese burger and cod & chips) was great and good service. Desserts were nice and big, sadly I didn’t get a picture before we dug in! Lovely classic pub atmosphere. Would be good if they had menus as you have to read off the board which an older guest found difficult, but ultimately we had a lovely meal. Will be returning.

My experience at the Boat House was very disappointing. As a party of three we were there when the doors were opened. Shown to a table and given menus and asked to order at the bar. No problem so far, we ordered three meals. One was a starter for someone eating later and a sandwich and ham egg and chips. Seemed a little expensive but family meal in difficult situation. Our server arrived with two starters. We only ordered one but as a meal for one of us. Half an hour later our other meals arrived. One Sandwich and ham egg and chips. In the mean time the server had returned to the table and refunded money for the other starter that I had not ordered. The food was fine if not a little expensive. One of the small eggs I had was hard and for the price there was not a lot on the plate. I had approached the server about the delay and was told it was my fault. Strange, it wasn’t me that got the order wrong. When she took the spare plate of starter back, how long does it take for someone to cook to eggs and make a cheese sandwich, half an hour seemed a bit much. I did mention to her that there were three of us and we ordered three dishes, where was the problem, but it still seemed to be my fault. I would not recommend this.
