Peggy Mays Cafe in New Forest

Amazing breakfast and service. Brilliant value for money, very friendly staff. Can’t fault them!! Will definitely be back. Dogs also welcome which is lovely

This really is a great cafe. Lovely food. Good value. Home made quiches are superb. Toilets are very clean and fragrant. Do go there, you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic. We had lunch here as four adults and two dogs after a walk. We had Ploughmans and they were brilliant. Huge portions for the money (would happily pay £2-3 more). The staff were lovley, a great find and we will be abck.

Walked past this cafe and decided to go I. For breakfast and I’m so glad we did. Hands down probably one of the best cooked breakfasts I’ve had in a long time. Could tell that they use quality ingredients and it was all cooked to perfection. Staff were friendly and couldn’t do more for us. The cakes in the counter looked amazing, but unfortunately I was too stuffed from the breakfast to try, but Will 100% return when next in the new forest.

Lovely little cafe in the heart of Lyndhurst. We enjoyed homemade quiche and coleslaw with salad and thick cut chips; Ham and Cheese Pannini with crisps and salad. Washed down with drinks. All presented nicely and was freshly prepared and served with a smile. Would recommend.

What an amazing find, super delicious choices on the menu, we all thoroughly enjoyed our food, children friendly facilities and baby changing facilities (very clean) and the team working at Peggy Mays were so warm and friendly- highly recommend

We won a gift voucher at the local school fete which offered breakfast at Peggy May's. We had a full English breakfast (I had veggie) and I can honestly say it is the best breakfast we have had locally. Good size, very tasty and nice coffee. Service was fantastic and very quick. Thank you Peggy Mays!

Great cafe in the high street at Lyndhurst. They do all the basics really well. Clean, good service, good selection on the menu, little details like Vegan and veggie options, meals are turned around quickly even when busy

Fantastic food, brilliant value for money! Staff very helpful and polite. Would recommend and will be visiting again.

Excellent Eggs Benedict and Peggy's Benedict. Followed by a scrumptious slice of carrot cake for himself which I had to test for research purposes! Lovely home cooked food and excellent friendly staff.

Popped in here for a light bite during a short stop in Lyndhurst on the way to Burley where we were staying. The young lady who served us was lovely, the service was quick and the food was really good and well priced. I went for the salmon sandwich and my wife had the leek and potato soup of the day, which she said was excellent. We enjoyed it so much we returned the next day to grab a bite to eat before our drive home, the wife had the soup again and I had a lovely toasted sandwich, and I treated myself to a milkshake which was great! Would certainly visit again when next in the area.

What a charming experience. The staff were all young but very focused on their jobs, working well together and friendly to all customers.

Can never fault Peggy Mays. Even though it was packed we were served quicky. Food arrived piping hot and delicious. Amazing place

Love this place Go whenever I can .Great food. Great service and the staff are always so lovely. Keep up the good work xx

Come across this cafe whilst in holiday and loved it. The food was very tasty and portion size was bigger than we expected for the cost. Would definitely recommend this beautiful cafe, friendly staff and the perfect cuppa!!

What a great place for breakfast , they were happy to take a booking for 13people , the breakfast was wonderful , we all ate at the same time , the service was excellent , it was also very clean , would definitely return , a great end to a weekend away celebrating my dads 80th birthday x

We have visited Peggy Mays a few times now and never been disappointed. The friendliness of the staff and the quality of the food is outstanding. The prices are also very reasonable.

This was a return visit, and food and drink were EXCELLENT. What spoilt it for me were the dogs inside the cafe. I don’t like dogs inside when I’m eating at the best of time, but certainly not when they are barking and running free the length of the cafe. They have outside tables - I’d recommend they have a ‘dogs stay outside’ policy.

What a lovely friendly welcome from the young women here! The cakes are not the cheapest but they're very, very good, and the coffee likewise. It was a shame we'd already had lunch!

Great find in Lyndhurst. Has a unique, boutique feel. Service was very good and the food was great. Popped in for breakfast and it didn’t disappoint.

Lovely little cafe for lunch or a snack when in Lyndhurst. Really delicious thick cut sausage sandwiches and the milkshakes are so tasty. The scones and cakes are also great.

What a lovely place! Excellent service, excellent food and a lovely atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

This tearooms is situated on the main high street the decoration inside is off quirkness.The inside was very clean and the staff were super helpful and friendly.We ordered two ham egg and chios and one jacket potato with salad the portion sizes were very good for the price with having handmade chips and the jacket was a big size too.We were full so cakes were takeaway and they were delicious this was a really nice place to get nice food without paying over the top

Great cafe and food More of a cafe than a tea room but great fresh food Good ploughmans and large English breakfasts Not really a tea and cake place but would recommend and return

The label tearoom slightly belies the “feel” inside albeit very floral/chinzy. The establishment has the feel more of a cafe/breakfast venue. The onus doesn’t seem to be on tea/cake. The decor was pretty but very tired. The waitresses looked serious and under pressure. Cakes looked very bland and uninspiring for a “tearoom” . Prices were fair for 2 tasty iced coffees. Location is central.

Tasty good quality breakfast and good coffee. Glass of orange juice way too big. Toilet facilities need upgrading. Good service.

A lovely cafe with a tea shop deco. The staff and food are excellent. The scones & teacakes are baked on site. Definitely a wonderful addition to Lyndhurst

Can’t recommend Peggy Mays highly enough. The service was friendly and efficient. The full English breakfast was tasty and filling, the smoothies delicious and the price was very reasonable. We both came out of the cafe suitably stuffed and glad we paid Peggy Mays a...

We went in while we were away for our anniversary weekend. We both had the small breakfast which was delicious, excellent value for money too. Staff were friendly and service was very good.

We booked a table of 8 last week and I can say it was the best breakfast we have had for a very long time. The staff were very friendly and I would highly recommend Peggy mays cafe. Look forward to going back

We are a family of 5 and we all had a wonderful breakfast at Peggy May’s - the staff are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble - we will be back soon!

We visited Peggy May’s after a walk in Lyndhurst and Google recommending it as a place for lunch. Clean, comfortable and friendly, we opted for the breakfast (available all day) and it didn’t disappoint.

The place is like a proper old English cafe the decor is really nice and homely staff and owner are so nice and friendly. We had the new forest breakfast and coffee all perfect

Cosy atmosphere Table service. Fast. Had breakfast and crumpets. Freshly made hot food. Will definitely stop here again as we often pass through Lyndhurst and try out the rest of their menu.

Lovely breakfast and the smoothies were really good. Especially the Merry Berry. Dog friendly and lovely friendly staff and atmosphere.

We ate breakfast here twice and while the food was nice the overall cost a little offputting. My granddaughter did love the Merry Berry smoothie though
