Poppy's Vintage Tea Room in Huntingdonshire

Half term lunch with my grandchildren. Although they were busy they fitted us in. We sat outside in shaded courtyard. Great sandwiches made to our specifications-all eaten. Then we had cake as choice was amazing. Chocolate cake Victoria and carrot cake all were fresh with large portions and tasted so good. Lovely time - thanked the new owner - just as good if not better than our previous visit. We will be back.

Lovely staff and the food is great especially for the price. Also the interior was very pretty. We got the afternoon tea for two and it was delicious. Visited St Neots just for a weekend away and coming here was definitely a highlight of the trip.

It’s a lovely set up. Very nice staff. Lovely food. Tea cups and tea pots were so cute Was a suitable price

We arranged a takeaway afternoon tea to celebrate my Mum's Birthday. It was very nicely presented, all the sandwiches and cakes were so fresh and everything was really tasty. Mum absolutely loved it. I would highly recommend it

Really lovely setting. Scrumptious scones. Polite and efficient staff. Reasonably priced. We’ll definitely be back for more!

Wonderful little place up a side street towards the church. Really nicely set out inside and out, very reasonable prices. Highly reccomend the Ploughmans, it's absolutely massive and done to a really high quality. Staff are also extremely nice and the tea selection is great. Have been multiple times and will be going many times again!

Booked for lunch with friends. Club sandwich was an absolute delight, chocolate fudge cake was so moist and delicious. Staff really friendly and we were not rushed to vacate our table.

I have been in hospital twice this year and I wanted to treat my wife for looking after me so well. I contacted Poppy’s tea room for their take away cream teas. I phoned them up and placed my order and a time of collection. When I arrived the teas were ready for me to collect. We were over the moon with the selection of sandwiches and cakes. They were of a brilliant standard and so fresh. I would highly recommend them and I have given Poppy’s Tea Room 5 stars. Thank you Poppy’s for a fabulous cream tea.Richard Butler

Staff welcoming. Food fresh and tasty. Service a little bit slow but they were a bit busy. Quaint tea cups,plates and tea pots

From my initial email enquiry to speaking over the telephone Poppys could not have been more helpful & professional, they went above and beyond with my request for our friends delivery of afternoon tea for their 20th wedding anniversary to their home. We will definatley be using them again, a hidden little gem within St Neots - Thank you Poppys!

First time we have visited here and wow we were so impressed, made to feel very welcome straight away and found us a nice table. Staff were very attentive and polite. We ordered some toasties and drinks for lunch and my daughter had a slice of the Victoria sponge cake which was lovely, the food came quickly was beautifully presented and was fresh and delicious. We will definitely visit again

My husband and I went for afternoon tea and it didn't disappoint. I had one of the best high teas that I've had for a very long time.The sortment of sandwiches were delicious, the scone was lovely and warm and the cakes were bite size, but big enough not to feel hungry.The service was excellent and I love the fact that they served sparkling elderflower with the high tea and that I could have a decaffeinated coffee instead of tea. My husband went for the jacket potato, which was also really good.We will definitely go back, such a lovely treat and probably the best tea shop near us, even though we don't live in St Neots.I'm glad I was told about it as I didn't even know it was there, as it's not on the main high street but tucked away to the side.

Took my step daughter as a treat and we loved it tasty food and brilliantly priced, service is good and place is clean and a proper tea room. Weekends are busy so be aware

We don't know St Neots and visited on what seemed a busy Saturday. Wanting a coffee we looked at a couple of coffee houses that looked packed before noticing this tea room down a side street. A little concerned that at the moment we arrived it was fairly quiet but we enjoyed a decent coffee and very nice tea loaf with butter. Always a delight when the experience exceeds expectations. Prices were reasonable.

We had a late lunch here after being ignored at another place in St Neots earlier. The experience here was very different.We came in to a warm room, and were greeted by an assistant with a friendly smile. We sat at a table, looked at the menu (spoilt for choice!) and within a few minutes the friendly assistant had taken our orders.We both opted for jacket potatoes, one with chicken, bacon and mayo - the other with tuna mayo.Both arrived quickly, were decent portions and so tasty.We then decided to have a slice of Victoria sponge between us. It was delicious!I think we will be returning here often! Thoroughly recommend this one.

Great cocktails and good service A quirky 20's feel. Nice place to visit at night. Also quaint tea room with nice cakes and food during the day.

Nice, cosy, friendly environment with decent food. Good for light lunches. Like stepping back in time.

Popped in here for lunch, What a treat!! A beautiful little place that is just like stepping back in time. You could imagine that you are still in The times of WW11 due to The decor and The old radio's and gas masks. Even The items on The menu have special wartime names. It's hard to explain but this place is a MUST to visit. The food is all home made and freshly cooked. And the staff are excellent. Tea is served in proper tea pots with knitted tea cosies in the shape of hats or soldiers.

Often visit this cafe with family and friends. All the food and cakes are lovely. It's always beautifully presented whatever you order.Afternoon tea is great. Sandwiches and baked potatoes etc have a lovely salad with them. The cafe is pretty and the tables are not too close together unlike some coffee shops.

We visit St Neots every few months and I stumbled across this tea shop after Googling places to eat in St Neots High Street. It’s a enchanting little shop just off the High Street (entrance to the Lane is opposite Boots) My husband and I enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea, the young lady and gentlemen serving were welcoming, friendly and polite. It’s was clean and tidy with a nice toilet. The food was delicious and we will definitely be back when next in the area.

Looking for a nice mid morning coffee we found this lovely tea room, and what a find. Lovely cheese scone (bit pricey at £3) and buttered crumpets. Yummy. Shame we live 200 miles away or 'poppy' would see us on a fegular basis.

What a lovely surprise, this tea room is a breath of fresh air. The surroundins, the food & the staff, no faults at all. A very pleasant lunch, will go again, can't wait.

I visited here for a spot of lunch. They had a wide range of choices all printed in the style of old fashion ration books. I opted for the Poppy special which was a sandwich with either a scone or a cake and a pot of tea. This was very filling and I thought good value for £9. Staff were friendly and helpful and I loved the decor in the tearoom.

Spent a lovely 2 hour visit to this vintage tearoom to celebrate a family visit from relatives from New Zealand. Four generations enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea in lovely surroundings served by helpful and friendly staff. Would definitely visit again .

Poppy’s tearoom never fails to please me. Great service, great food. I really like the Victoria sandwich they do. Although quite expensive, I would pay that amount of money as the product is great. Toilet was clean, staff friendly and happy to help. I would recommend to everyone!

This used to be my favourite tea shop in St Neots and I met up here with friends quite a lot. However the last two visits have been rather disappointing food wise and I haven't been back for awhile.

Poppys is good value. Fresh food of good quality. You cant park near it and it isnt very big so cant always get in unless youve booked

The service was excellent from the initial ordering to the receipt of the food, the quality of food was very good and the portion sizes were also very sufficient,

Situated very conveniently in the centre of St Neots, this is a relaxed place to eat great cakes and relax.

This is always are only choice of tea room in St Noets and have been visiting here for many years, every time we visit St Noets. It can be busy but that is a good sign and we were lucky enough to get a table today. We ordered tea and cake, both very good and arrived promptly. I was happy to place a vote for the tea room in the “Muddy Stilettos” awards. The food is always good is this the room as is the service and I would throughly recommend the tea room.

I loved this place, I went with two friends and we sat upstairs, really nice! We got tea and scones and one scone is enoigh, believe me, they are huge! Delicious and tasty and prices in line with what expected. Can't wait to go back!

I absolutely love this tearoom! The staff are always really lovely and I have been many times for coffee and cake and lunch but this week myself and my friend went for an Afternoon Tea.We arrived and were shown to our table,which was reserved by the window.A young man came over with a complimentary glass of Elderflower bubbly and asked us if we were ready for our tea and what drink we would like.The sandwiches were lovely and fresh.We gradually made our way onto the scones,again gorgeous! Finally the top tier were tiny little cakes,a good assortment but my personal favourite was the carrot cake.The lady asked us if we wanted more tea and was really lovely.The décor is quirky,love the Ration book menu's and all the cakestands on the windowsill.The only downside I have is that it would have been lovely to have old war music gently playing in the background,a bit of Vera Lynn would have topped it off.

Went for mothers day with my daughter.Served a glass of elderberry wine lovely sandwiches scones and lovely little cakes Tea was served in old fashioned cup and saucers Was given a lovely plant in a tea cup at the end.Very clean and staff very attentive.This is such a lovely tea shop will certainly be returning again

Excellent service and value for money. The staff are all friendly. Will definitely return. Will definitely be returning.

Will not find a better tea room for miles!! Staff were fantastic, food was brilliant, lovely atmosphere, been here twice before and definitely will be coming back for a third time!!

We have been here time and time again and it never lets us down!

Been here before but a lot had changed. Very over crowded place, seems unorganised three visible staff members on a Saturday afternoon who seemed out of their comfort zone. It didn’t help that 2 women came in with already crying children and proceeded to seat themselves. Food was ok not great scones very small ( much smaller than last visit) but nice texture and taste. All in all disappointed not sure if I would go back. Just a thought if you are busy either add more staff or look for a lager place.

A little tea shop just off St Neots High Street, where you are served tea in very English cups and scones on very English plates. We had a light meal including fresh savoury scones with pickles and cream cheese and a melts. All great.

We had a lovely lunch. Great value for money and good selection and friendly staff. We'll be back ☺️👍🍰

Very welcoming and friendly service. Perfect atmosphere to enjoy tea and to talk each other. I had a Great time. Highly recommended.

Lovely food and drink staff could smile a bit more. A little bit of interaction with customers and staff would make this place. As it it is I will go somewhere else

Cute, friendly and always welcoming. The wife and I have visited here a number of times and have always had a lovely time.

Lovely afternoon tea. Nice sandwiches, scones and cakes. There was a group of 9 of us and they were happy for us to bring our own fizz - they even gave us lovely wine glasses. Nice welcome - good service and lovely staff.

Popped in to Poppy's on a wintry afternoon, and only ordered a humble cheese toastie and coffee, but was served anything, but 'humble': it was humble like Eddie Izzard is humble - it was gorgeous! Throw in a coffee delivered from a machine that looked like a 50s Juke box, and you've got style! And taste! (Not often combined...ask anyone from Reality TV shows!).

Best coffee☕ Lovely staff. Nice ambience. Will be back again, when i am passing st neots. Highly recommended

We had a lovely evening on the beautiful vintage. My girlfriend really enjoyed the evening tea . We love to come back. Thankyou poppy's vintage, thank you for taking care of us. We definitely be back.

"Very successful visit, simple and tasty sandwich very well presented. Helpful staff and perfect atmosphere. Surely back soon"

Well presented everything,nice place for your tea and coffee I really liked the simple sandwiches, will visit again .

The wife being crazy about afternoon tea, thought we'd try this place out and it was lovely. Great staff, atmosphere and food. Definitely be back.

Just fancied a little lunch out, wasn’t disappointed, this is basically a cafe done right, sandwiches were simple but presented really well, my dining partner was a bit of a tea enthusiast and found it hard to pick as they had a plethora of options, the decor was also nice in that kitschy kinda vintage style.

Fabulous place to eat .good choice of food and very pleasant inside. Staff could not be more helpful and attentative to our needs

We have just had another very enjoyable afternoon tea at Poppy’s Vintage Tea Room in St. Neots, served by very pleasant and friendly staff.

Today we went with my aunt to the tea shop for afternoon tea. The food was very good and the staff were very friendly.

Just had my teeth braced. I hade a cake, I know i wasn't allowed to eat cakes but that made my day. It was very tasty. Nice staff and good atmosphere. I really enjoyed the coffee, I will definitely be back to this sweet vintage with my brother. I think he should try it.

On my way to Bedford, I have decided to have a coffee and it was really good. I had a homme made cake As well which my mind was tempting to. I really enjoyed the ambience. Will definitely be back and I highly recommend going there

Popped in for a cuppa while visiting St Neots. Ordered at the counter from a tempting selection of home made cakes and chose a table outside. The tea and cake were served on delightful vintage china by a very courteous waiter. Tea was perfect, cake was sublime. All at a reasonable price. I can highly recommend this cafe and will certainly return on my next visit to St Neots! Lovely!

Whilst on this most recent visit my wife & I met up with another couple, this is a favourite haunt for us with our young children.

Love the ration book menus, fantastic cakes, great menu choice and lovely place. We go back time after time

Wonderful place with a charming and peaceful atmosphere. The staff are friendly and kind. Well worth the find. It’s a little off the beaten path, but this hidden gem will not disappoint!

Wir haben hier samstags gefrühstückt. Bestellt wurden eine Eisschokolade und ein Mango-Grüntee (beides sehr gut) sowie Kaffee.

Came across this by accident walking my late mums friend (90) through church walk. Great coffee good selection of food but more importantly a friendly and relaxing atmosphere. Will be back with a slightly younger cohort!

We went for my daughters birthday for afternoon tea and it was lovely. We had delicious sandwiches, scones and cakes.... all washed down with plenty of tea and a glass of elderflower fizz. Thank you Poppys!

Have visited a couple of times now and I am always charmed by the decor, mismatched tea sets and lovely staff. Delicious sandwiches and cakes, in particular a very naughty but amazing chocolate cake!! My only criticism was that my coffee was very strong, especially as it was a latte.

A quaint little tearoom. I loved how the menu is made to look like a ration book. The room is filled with pretty china cake stands and other 1940s/1950s style objects. I decided I would try this tearoom for breakfast The menu was good. I had scrambled eggs with smoked salmon. The salmon was served chopped in with the scrambled egg which was not what I was expecting so I was a little disappointed. I prefer to have the salmon along side. It seems more of a treat that way. It came with two slices of toast and the coffee was good. It was quiet when we were there and the food arrived quickly once ordered, but the service (ordering food, getting another coffee, getting the bill) was slow. There were some cakes on the counter which looked delicious for afternoon tea.

This was our first visit to this quaint little tea room, situated just off the High Street in St Neots, and we were made to feel welcome as soon as we walked through the door. The ladies who work there are very friendly and helpful and the service was excellent.

Had a lovely afternoon tea a present from my daughter. Super soft bread finger sandwiches smoked salmon and cream cheese, egg mayonnaise, ham and wholegrain mustard and cheese and pickle. Big scone with loads of jam and clotted cream them bite size carrot cake , chocolate cake, Victoria sponge and lemon drizzle washed down with elderberry fizz and loads of limitless tea. All served on vintage china in lovely surroundings. They also do a good selection of sandwiches jacket potatoes etc which also looked lovely. A delightful place to spend an hour or so. We attended on a Monday and had booked our table which was just as well as the place was full, always an indication of how good a place is. Thank you to all at Poppy's keep.up the good work. We will.be back.

Nice little tea room with friendly staff. Afternoon tea was good and the staff were very accommodating.

Perfect little tearoom with tasteful decor and delicious scones and cakes. Will definitely return for some more!

I re-visited Poppy's recently with my family and the food is still brilliant and the service is still very good. They catered very nicely for my 2 young children who both enjoyed their toasted cheese sandwiches followed by some lovely homemade cake

Had Afternoon Tea at Poppy’s today. Once again it was a real treat.Sandwiches made with very fresh bread & 4 tasty fillings. Excellent scones with cream & jam as well as a selection of mini cakes. Plenty of tea & coffee to complete the meal. Poppy’s was very busy,even on a Monday, which is a recommendation in itself!

Quite a small cafe with a 'vintage' theme. There are a few artefacts to suggest the period including a lot of forties/fifties style mirrors on the wall and a Singer sewing machine, but it doesn't really carry it off. There are China cups and saucers and proper teapots, but the tea is still teabag tea. We had scones and tea, which was quite nice.

A nice little hidden away gem just off the main High Street in St Neots. This place offers a great selection of sandwiches and cakes as well as a vast selection of teas. They do great deals on afternoon tea for two and is great value for money. May be worth booking as it's often very busy particularly at weekends and during school holidays.

My daughter and I had the Poppy’s Special. I consisted of sandwiches of our choice and a chocolate scone with nuttella and clotted cream. These scones were gorgeous and not at all rich. We loved it cannot recommend this highly enough.

This was the first place we landed up at, the day we arrived in St Neots. The lady at the counter was friendly & helpful, Ploughmans's sandwich was amazing and the soup of the day was satisfying....and that's what determined that we would return to this quaint little tea-room, once we settled in town. I have been at poppy's a few times now, to have a peaceful cuppa with my friends and with visiting relatives. Cakes are large portioned and tea/lemonade always good. As we finish one year in this town...I see myself visiting them more often as days go by.

Love this little vintage cafe, have visited several times. Really great food and gorgeous tea! Good friendly service, reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend!

I took my daughter for afternoon tea and she loved it. The attention to detail is lovely from the ration books as menus to all the vintage plates and cups.

We ordered a pit of tea for two expecting proper leaf tea as stated on the menu but we got a large pot with 2 tea bags. It tasted very ordinary and was very weak even though we left it to brew. The tea cakes were nothing special and I barely had enough butter cubes for mine although my husband had plenty for his. Maybe due to the wartime theme when men got the best! I did like the theme of the menu as a ration book and the fresh flowers on the tables were a nice touch.

Second time of visiting and just as good,great food especially the cakes.It was recommended by a friend,but word is spreading fast as many of my work colleagues rave about it.

We came across the tea room as we were exploring the town. As we had our dog with us we sat outside and fortunately the sun was shining. The outdoor seating doesn't exactly have a great view - directly opposite a hair salon but the food makes up for it. Lemon scones with lemon curd and cream, delicious

Service excellent throughout and fruit and lemon scones served on vintage china. The presentation was just what I would wish for from a Tea Shop and everything tasted superb. Will definitely make this a regular haunt.

We made a slight detour to get here for coffee and cakes en route to Lincolnshire and were very glad we did. Delightful environment, good cafetieres of coffee and the best cakes we've tasted in a long while. The chocolate fudge cake was heavenly; the carrot cake divine!

Been to Poppy's plenty of times. Jacket potatoes are always beautiful. Plenty of tea cakes @ sandwiches. Nice afternoon treat.

Best tea room in St.Neots! Fantastic service, lovely food and beautiful surroundings! Every time we have been we have had the same great service and food. Reasonably priced too.

We've had a lovely lunch today with my disabled 94 year old Dad. He doesn't get out much. But was so looking forward to trying somewhere different and loved the look of the ration book menu.Although he's in a wheelchair there was plenty of space round the table, and the staff were happy for us to move the chairs a little to accommodate him.His appetite is not huge, but it was lovely to see him tucking into soup and crusty bread, followed by an enormous slice of Victoria sponge! The toasties we had were fresh and delicious too.The carrot cake and coffee/walnut cake were fantastic too, and enormous slices! Great food, friendly staff, lovely ambience and we'll priced.Thank you so much!

Would highly recommend this place for coffee, lunch or afternoon tea. We both had the club sandwich which was to die for - especially the bacon which was thick and fresh out of the frying pan. Then we had a slice of chocolate fudge cake and one of Victoria sponge - both were perfect and the slices were massive! Lovely staff, great atmosphere and reasonable prices.

Afternoon tea - Plenty of home made cakes, scones with real cream, sandwiches and lashings of tea and friendly service..

Was invited to tea one afternoon by some friends. I had walked past the place often enough but never ventured in. I opened the door was overwhelmed by the atmosphere. If it wasn't for the fact that people were dressed in modern clothes you would have thought you had stepped back in time, table cloths, lace doilies, napkins, cake stands and has been mentioned by others cups and saucers from a bygone age. Its a shame it is not larger as the tables are very close together but the food and service is excellent.

From when we stepped inside Poppy's Vintage Tea Room we felt like we popped in to see a friend for tea. Menus are in a ration book with good selection........would recommend the chicken with lemon mayo....yummy. Huge pot of tea, OLD FASHIONED CUPS AND SAUCERS to drink from....wonderful, old fashioned plates served with the most fresh sandwichs on. Lovely staff, friendly and very welcoming. You would be advised to book a table for lunch time as it is a popular place and gets busy. They also serve 'Afternoon Tea' which we were told has to be tried, that will be for next visit as we didn't have enough time. Thank you Poppy's Vintage Tea Room it brought back great memories for us.

Visited Poppy's with my mum and sister today, had a wonderful experience! Good choice of food, friendly staff and quick and efficient service! Can't wait to go back! :)

Visited here on many occasions but I have never had the club sandwich until my previous visit. Absolutely amazing!! I would highly recommend anybody to try this. Always good service and smiling faces from the staff. Love this place!!

I only ate here once having heard it had lots of good reviews. It has few tables and is busy, we couldn't get in the first time we tried.This second time we had no choice but to sit at an outside table and waited a long time for service. The choices were few and they both for something wrong and delivered in a poor order. Put us off returning.

Elegant, excellent selection of teas, pleasant location, good pastry. Friendly staff, swift and engaging service.

Went here for Afternoon Tea. It was lovely. Everything very fresh and very tasty. Staff very friendly and attentive.

A lovely spot this. Booked for Afternoon Tea for 6 for (£69 in total)... and it was very good. Lovely selection of sandwiches, huge scones and generous selection of cakes...so generous some were taken home to be eaten at a later date. The staff were friendly and welcoming and even provided a candle for one of the cakes when they learned it was a birthday treat. ( technically there should have been another 71 but we did not have enough cake ). A small room with a pleasant atmosphere, mismatched tables and chairs and crockery. Mirrors on one wall give an illusion of space and adds to the eclectic decor. Would recommend heartily....

Stopped here for teas and coffees and cake. Very busy little tea room. Cups and saucers not matching, rather like eteaket - but they were china. Cakes and scones were excellent.

My disabled husband and I made a special trip to poppy's tea room in saint neots today, it was very busy so we waited for one of the staff to see if there were any tables available, the staff walked passed us ignoring us, there didn't appear to be any cakes left anyway so we thought it was a waste of time going there, and we thought the staff were rude the way they ignored us, won't be returning.

A really lovely tea room tucked away in a quiet part of town, just off of the High Street but secluded and calm. Lovely tea and cakes and much more.

I go here often to meet up with friends. the staff are always welcoming and never rush you to leave which makes for a lovely relaxing visit. We often go for lunch and stay chatting and have tea and cake later too. Do try the cheese scones for a change from sweet scones served with cream cheese and chutney instead of cream and jam. The egg sandwiches with crisps and salad garnish are very nice too. It is decorated in vintage style with ration book menus and vintage china. Delightful to get a big old fashioned teapot.Don't be offput by the condensation in the main window as it spoils the appearance from the outside; its a gem do go inside.

was very impressed with the afternoon tea, choice of different teas..... cakes had excellent choice, and plenty variety of fillings for the sandwiches...excellent sevice .

Visited on a Saturday lunchtime. It's small with not about 25 covers but it's delightful! We ordered tea, coffee and sandwiches. All lovely and very well priced. Highly recommended!
