We took my brother and sister in law for an Afternoon Tea as a lunch when they came over from Yorkshire. The food was lovely and freshly made. The vegetarian options looked as lovely as mine! The staff were pleasant and helpful and the ambiance was lovely. The whole experience was Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Fantastic atmosphere, service and food. We ordered two festive indulgence afternoon teas and 2 soup and salad combos. 14 year old daughter's eyes were on stalks when the afternoon tea arrived. She loved the whole experience. We are visiting family in the area / are up from London and have gone out for afternoon tea numerous times - but this was by far the best we have ever had. Bought some vouchers for my mother in law so she can go with a friend over the Christmas period. And we will definitely be visiting Poppins again on our next visit.

We passed this place on the main road a couple of months ago and had to turn around to try it! What a delightful little place, beautifully decorated and had a cute outdoor seating area too - we had soup and a sandwich which were both lovely followed by delicious home made cake! Lots of afternoon tea options too which it was nice to see you didn't have to book days in advance like most places. Very reasonably priced too. Staff were very friendly and welcoming and nothing seemed too much to ask. We'll definitely be back!

Visited a couple of weeks ago for afternoon tea with my son, my auntie and my cousin. It was the first time we'd seen each other in over a year.We were booked in for 2.30pm and had a table for 4 that was in a quiet area.The staff were very friendly, and couldn't do enough for us the whole time wew were there.We ordered the Indulgence Afternoon Tea for 4...we all chose different teas, but everything arrived together and it was absolutely delicious!We all had an additional pot of tea, and we ended up taking some cakes home.Lorraine, Andrew, Andrea and Barbara would like to thank the staff that looked after us on that rainy Saturday afternoon. They helped make an emotional family reunion very special. We can't wait to go back again!!

Booked afternoon tea for 7 people for a little “baby shower” treat. The staff are so friendly and lovely, really helpful and nothing too much trouble. The menu choice is excellent, so good that we didn’t know which afternoon tea to choose. It was very busy, but that didn’t affect the speed or quality of service and when the food arrived it was beautifully presented and everything tasted so good. This is an absolute gem of a place, we all said we will definitely be back, and soon! Thank you Poppins for making the afternoon celebrations just perfect.

I genuinely cannot praise this tearoom enough and I cannot wait to revisit.We visited yesterday as a group of 8 and the whole experience was excellent.As soon as we arrived the outside excited me as it is so quaint and completely in keeping with the theme. And then we stepped through the door into a beautiful room where there was a nod to Mary with bits of memorabilia dotted around. We were then taken to our table in a different room which was just as authentic, and seated at our table. The menu has so much choice and even though I had already decided I was having an afternoon tea before we arrived I still struggled to pick which one as they all sounded so good. All the adults went for the "The Poppins Indulgence Afternoon Tea" and we were not disappointed. The sandwiches were lovely and fresh and the flavours went so well together and the mini savoury was very tasty. The minis, scone and slice of cake were also so fresh and gorgeous and we definitely all left full.The 2 children had "Jane & Michael's Afternoon Tea" both with cheese sandwiches and they loved it. I should also point out 1 of them is extra fussy and usually only likes the cheese at home but she wolfed all these sandwiches down and wanted more. They both had hot chocolates and had seconds of those.I loved the large teapots we got and the loose leaf tea and cups and saucers just added to the whole experience for me, I nearly had sugar just so I could add sugar cubes. The tea was lovely and was drank with a raised pinkie! And as the children's hot chocolates looked so good I got one of those too and it did not disappoint, lovely and chocolatey and topped with cream and marshmallows.The food and drinks were excellent and even if you are not a fan of Mary Poppins you will love this place.I am not sure if you can tell but I loved this tearoom and I highly recommend it!

Had booked for Afternoon Tea using a Groupon voucher unfortunately my partner fell ill a few days before we were due to go, I contacted the tea room to let them know and asked would it be possible for me to pop down on the day with some Tupperware boxes to collect the food as we live locally. The lady stated there was no need to take boxes they would pack it up for me. I attended about 10minutes before our table was booked to find the food wrapped up and in 2 paper bags. Ate our Afternoon Tea at home, the sandwiches were very fresh and delicious - the cheese and chutney was gorgeous, as was the beef and beetroot. Also got scones with cream and jam and 2 slices of delicious cake. Thank you so much.

The building is a bit like Mary Poppins’ bag, a series of small, we’ll appointed rooms giving a homely feel. The staff were very friendly and engaged my shy 6yr old daughter in conversation, which was great. It’s Poppins inspired more than themed, but a lovely place to enjoy a meal, the portion sizes were good, not too big but not too small with sandwiches not too bulky. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to sample the cake this time but I’m sure we will on a future visit.

We visited Poppins Tea Rooms on a Groupon High Tea Voucher. We have had several Groupon vouchers, to various restaurants in the past and we can say this is one of the best ones. The two lady staff present were friendly and attentive and the high tea was very tasty and filling. We had a look at the menu and the choices looked varied and reasonably priced. We noticed that the soup and bloomer seemed very popular amongst the other guests, and the sandwiches and meals looked equally tasty. We will be back to sample the menu again.

Our meal was, as usual, hot, well presented and with a fresh clean taste. Poppins is our 'go to restaurant' every Thursday. If we're not there by 2pm, Irfan and Gina are concerned in case something has happened to us. Cannot recommend Poppins highly enough.

Bought this as seen an offer on groupon. I had an indulgence tea for 4. I wouldn't recommend booking on groupon if you want this for a weekend O initially booked this in March/April and wasnt one weekend free until June. We was seated but wasnt explained to about the menu so I has to get up to ask the waitress what we needed to do. The food was great and enjoyed the little quirks of the establishment. Although we was checked upon we had to ask for extra drinks onve we had finished as no one had come back to us in quite a while. They seemed very busy so service wasnt as attentive as I thought it would be. One lady was very friendly who we ordered extra drinks from I would like to visit again maybe at the one in Smithills.

Yet another satisfying visit to Poppins. Starting to lose count of how many times we have been but this was the first full on cream tea for two we'd sampled. Excellent as always with almost too much to eat. Calling it good, "simple" food does it an injustice; it's more a case of uncomplicated, with the garnish on each of the sandwiches being different enough to raise them above the norm whilst steering well clear of pretentious.I really cannot praise the service and staff enough.

Having been regular visitors to Smithills Coaching House over our lifetime from being children to when the actual Coaching House closed, we were thrilled to see via a Groupon dealthat Poppins Tea Rooms had opened up in the old Smithills Hall and my wife and I booked an afternoon tea at Poppins Smithills in Bolton and it was delightful. Prior to enjoying our selecation of sandwiches, scones with cream and jam, cakes and tea we had a walk around the extensive grounds. Our waitress, Nikki (or Nicky?), was absolutely lovely and very attentive to our needs. We were full after the above selection and were then offered a slice of gateau each with the coffees we'd ordered instead of prosecco so Nikki kindly put the gateau's into a bag for us to take home. After our afternoon tea we visited the rest of the historic building. We didn't do the organised tour on this occasion but might do so when returning at a later date. We have booked a further Poppins tea room visit to take my mother in law on Mothering Sunday so will enjoy another deicious afternoon tea again then. Well done everyone at Poppins Smithills and especially Nikki. I believe that the tearooms have been open there for quite some time so had it not have been for this Groupon deal we would possibly never known about it.

Great little place, good for a quiet chat with someone. Can recommend the carrot cake. Good selection of teas (fruit & herbal)

Spur of the moment visit for brunch, had not booked and had 2 children, managed to fit us in and very patient and polite. We were happy to wait for freshly prepared food which was tasty and filling. Had to have top ups of tea and coffee and childrens juice but all was fine. Considering there were 5 of us and no booking we had a great time, the children were interested in all the items from years gone by. Looking forward to another visit

Went with a group of 20 - seated altogether in a room towards the back of the tearoom. The sandwiches and cakes were wonderful. Real tea with a strainer and tea leaves - served in china cups. Lots to eat and most of us ended up with a take-home bag of cakes. The scones with the clotted cream were as nice as you would get in Cornwall or Devon.

Great seat in the window! Staff very obliging, pleasant and attentive. Would definately recommend and would go again. Thank you Poppins!

We're stopping locally and decided against the Premier Inn breakfast Drawn by the Trip Advisor reviews we visited as the only people in for Saturday breakfast - but really enjoyed their qianit and quirky little placeEggs Benedict and Pancakes (bacon and maple syrup) cooked to perfection, washed down with a tea (for ma'am) & a cafetière of coffee for me - all told £17, which we thought was great value for the quality and taste we experienced Very nice way to start the day Would definitely revisit if we were local

This was my third visit and my friends first and she loved it! We both had the indulgence afternoon tea and it was superb the sandwiches were lovely and fresh as well as very tasty. The scone was soft and lovely homemade jam. The cake was delicious and so were the little extras. I also tried the tropical boost tea as don’t drink ‘normal’ tea and that was lovely tasted just as good as it smelt. The staff were lovely and friendly even when I asked daft questions. A lovely visit to a wonderful place that had 1940’s decor and full of Mary Poppins decor which I love. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

First time myself, wife and daughter have been here and even though it was half term and booked up the staff still found us a table. The staff were friendly and efficient. The food was excellent, and we are looking forward to going back soon.

Lovely place, nice friendly staff. Fabulous 1940s decor. Staff dressed in black dress and white frilled pinny. Had a lovely Tuna Melt. Tea in pot with tea leaves. All the crockery was China. I will definitely go back.

I think this is the second time I have been to Poppins. The menu has all of the café classics like soup, sandwiches, a nice selection of cakes. Portions are good sizes making it fairly good value for money.Staff are bubbly and friendly, and service is efficient. The only thing I would say is that the interior is quite small, there are 3 rooms but the building is very old and the ceilings are quite low, with tables being very close together. That being said, the décor is lovely and the tearoom is themed but not in an overbearing way. I would recommend if you're looking for something quieter than other cafes in Horwich,

I was told by a friend about this lovely little place and I wasn’t disappointed! We had the soup and sandwich - delicious and very filling, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The decor is really quaint, and along with the background music makes for a relaxing food experience. We’ll certainly visit again soon.

My daughters (aged 13 and 16) and 2 of their friends (aged 14 and 16) went to celebrate a birthday today. They absolutely loved it, the staff were wonderful with them. All four of them said the food was beautiful, the setting was lovely and the staff were so friendly and nice with them. One of the girls was a pescatarian and they catered for her. My self and my husband will definately be going now.

I came here with a group to celebrate the birthday of a friend. The tea room is quaint with the staff dressed in old school style uniforms. As per the name it has a Mary Poppins theme so it has a vintage Edwardian theme. We had a festive indulgence afternoon tea which was delicious and well worth the £15.95 as I didn't really need to eat again for the rest of the day!! All the food is freshly prepared and really really yummy. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and it's no bother to request a different drink etc. There is no car park but there is street parking. I'll definitely be coming here again

Having visited previously for gluten free afternoon tea, my husband and I decided on the spur of the moment to visit again on Saturday 28th October. On ordering a gluten free sandwich I was informed they did not have gluten free bread and only offered gluten free sandwiches when pre ordered. I was told the same when I asked if they had any gluten free cakes. I told our server we had visited before, without prior arrangement. She said they had changed and only offer gluten free when preordered. The tearoom menu still state 'Gluten free options available at £1 extra'. The online menus also still say the same with no mention of pre ordering. Needless to say we left and won't be returning.

Today I hosted a baby shower for my sister at Poppins Tearooms and it was perfect! Beforehand we were allowed to decorate the room with balloons etc and the staff could not do enough for us! We had an indulgent afternoon tea and it was delicious! A home made scone, sandwiches, cupcake, macaron, other little patisseries and a slice of cake (a large selection of Bakewell tart/Victoria sponge/ chocolate cake/ carrot cake/ lemon meringue/ Manchester tart etc.) all washed down with a cup of tea/coffee. There was simply too much for us all to eat but the staff were more than happy to bag up our treats for us to take home! I’d highly recommend Poppins to anyone either for afternoon tea or a baby shower. We had exclusive use of the tearooms for the baby shower which made it extra special too! Thank you so much!

I visited the smithills Hall venue today after seeing it advertised x I struggled to find somewhere to park as the car park was full and l got the last space x my friend had to park further up the lane x l was therefore very surprised to find only 6 people in the tearooms x the food and service was lovely but the atmosphere l felt was a little flat xx l will return though x

Met my friend for lunch as we hadn't seen each other for a while. She suggested going to Poppins as she had been there before and she said it was nice. We had toasted brie and bacon sandwiches with salad on the side a pot of tea and lemon drizzle cake for afters.The sandwiches were lovely with plenty of filling and the cake was delicious. The place is very quaint and old fashioned with lots of nice touches and lovely old crockery. It's a lovely little place with great service and lovely staff. Will definitely be back.

Popped in for Sunday breakfast and was pleased to see that it was quite busy. The tables are clean and we chose a vegetarian breakfast and a standard breakfast. Choice of white or brown toast. The food is freshly cooked so we relaxed with a tasty cappuccino to sip on. When it did arrive our food was hot and plenty of it. The team are friendly, obviously have regular customers and a variety of sweet treats to take away for later. Overall good value for money. We will be stopping by again.

We always visit courthouse and it’s always perfect every time! Food and drinks are very good, we’ve never had a bad experience 😊 We recently hosted our engagement party here and it is the perfect venue, the staff were amazing from start to finish from booking to drinks being served. We would highly recommend courthouse to anyone thinking about booking an event here or even visiting for food or drink!! 🥂
