Seale Tea Room in Guildford

Popped in shortly before closing and luckily grabbed the last table. We both opted for the delicious afternoon tea which was amazing value. A full length warmed toasted baguette, slice of cake, and macaroons to finish - plus a tea or coffee, all for £12.50. I also opted for a banoffee hot chocolate which was delicious. The interior is cute and sweet, with blankets and hot water bottles available for guests to use. The staff are welcoming, friendly and accommodating. We’re delighted we were able to squeeze in last minute on a Sunday (we’re not from the area), and what a worth while visit it was!! Highly recommend. Thanks again Manor Farm Team!!

Visited today after having not been there for probably 2 years (covid!). Firstly so pleased to see that the cafe was still operating and secondly the service and menu was at the same standard as before. We have been slowly venturing out into dining out and about, we have experienced some shocking quality of food and service . Today was not the case. Our servers were lovely and the food amazing, Brie, bacon and onion baguette and a club sandwich with coffee/walnut cake to go. Fresh and delicious. Due to the latest omicron strain there was plenty of fresh air but with the wood burner on it was cozy and we felt really safe. Great choice all round.

The quaint little tea room was an absolute gem to find - I was visiting the south west on business when my girlfriend this little place as a stopover on the drive back and we certainly weren't disappointed! For £25, we had two huge afternoon teas comprising of a sandwich, scone or cake, macaroons and tea (they even serve their Earl Grey with lemon!!) or coffee. We were thoroughly impressed! I also wanted to have the bacon baguette with the afternoon tea rather than a sandwich and rather than the usual "oh, we're not sure if we can do that", I was met with the unfamiliar "of course, no problem!"; that is a rarity!Overall, if you're considering it, don't even think twice. There's also a little craft shop next door for a little light shopping, although it is on the more expensive side.

I visited this lovely tea room with friends yesterday afternoon. I was surprised at how busy it was during the week however, once I ate and drink what was on offer there it became clear to me why this was. I had an amazing chai latte made from a loose tea mix which was bursting with flavour, along with the most delicious melt-in-your mouth soft and crumbly cheese scone that I have had in a very long time. The freshness of their baked goods is clear to taste. The staff were very warm, friendly and attentive. My friends and I felt very welcome, the atmosphere there is cosy, gentle and relaxing. This is an absolute hidden gem of a tea room. I will definitely return and enjoying sharing this special place with other friends.

Stopped here a couple of weeks ago, managed to grab a table in the sun outside,amongst the many bike rider's .Nice tidy establishment , just disappointed about the absence of cappuccino on the menu, very unusual in this day and age !

We visited here on our way to Aldershot, what a fabulous place for lunch. Nice to see a variety of vegan and gf options, I had the vegan cheese and chilli jam toastie which was really good. Definitely recommend and will visit again if we are nearby.

There were 17 of us with 3 dogs walk in and we felt very welcomed and the staff were lovely. We had our Sunday brunch in the Tea room and were so impressed we came back 3 hours later for our cream teas! The food was delicious and the cakes amazing. Thank you very much for your hospitality. We will be back again someday.

Such a lovely little tea room with nice tea and absolutely incredible cake. Lots of outside seating.

Stopped here instead of usual motorway services and so pleased we did. Lovely rustic style tea room with the most amazing looking selection of cakes (sadly didn’t have room to try any!). Lovely doorstep sandwiches and enormous cups of coffee and chai lattes. Good menu for children and high chairs provided. Husband had American pancakes which were fabulous. Good vegetarian options. Parking a bit tight and got a bit chaotic as we were leaving; glad we arrived early for lunch. Next door to a cute craft shop which is worth a look.

Looking for a simple no frills lunch on a rainy day. Blown away by quality, value and service. Will be back! Next time to sample the breakfast menu…..

Simply outstanding. We regularly pop in for a drink and a bite to eat. It really is a lovely place to visit. The staff are great and the atmosphere is peaceful.

My wife and I took my mother for a coffee, my mother and I had the coffee which was lovely (cafetière) with a choice of hot milk, milk or cream, my wife had a smoothie which she let me try which really nice and refreshing and we had fruit scones with jam and cream, they were absolutely delicious and the staff were really nice and friendly, you felt safe as they have created a one way system and markers in the floor to remind people of “Space” we will definitely be returning soon

This sweet little cafe is placed in the beautiful Seale. The staff are all extremely friendly and welcoming. And the food is incredible. Very simple but extremely tasty. All of the cakes and treat are delicious. Would highly recommend them.

This was my first visit to Manor Farm Tea room, but it certainly will not be the last! I met a friend for lunch on a lovely sunny day, so we were able to sit outside. Friendly and helpful staff, I chose a sausage baguette, which was hot and tasty. Afterwards we indulged in coffee and cake, a lovely cafetiere of strong coffee, something we had not enjoyed for some while. I had chocolate caramel shortbread, which really was superb. Afterwards we looked in the lovely craft shop and did some early Christmas shopping! Highly recommended.

What a little Gem tucked away in the country side in Seale .My friend and I stopped here at The Manor Farm Tearooms it was once a cow she’d very old building but warm inside and no end of lovely little china tea ports every where . The staff made us so welcome and we both enjoyed a lovely lunch . Worth I visit and I will go again at the weekend with 2 more friends .

What a lovely breakfast. Very Covid-19 aware. The staff wash their hands at very regular intervals which is timed by the manager. The food is delicious and such a lovely setting.

My friend and I went for an afternoon birthday cuppa and cake.Covid awareness good, very friendly staff. Attractive painted tables and chairs.Lovely coffee and walnut cake, fresh loose leaf tea, pretty crockery, and piece de resistance, amazing scones, served warm, crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, served with clotted cream and jam. We are still talking about them days later!!Highly recommend a visit here.

Did a nice walk along some of the North Downs Way and connected Bridleways today, and at the end visited Manor Farm Tea Room. What a little gem! Lovely fresh food made on-site, including the cakes, which are excellent. We had the carrot cake...highly recommend . Friendly staff made our visit very enjoyable.

Another amazing experience, lovely food and friendly professional staff. Very Clean and COVID Measures excellent. Thank you it was very good to come back with good friends.

Very limited menu and no proper coffee machine. Cafetière only. I had carrot cake and a smoothie which I cannot complain about but not somewhere I would rush back to in a hurry.

Tea shop in quaint building adjacent to a craft centre. The rafters were decorated with teapots. There was an excellent display of homemade cakes and good strong hot tea. Great stop if you are walking the Pilgrims Way.

Lovely, quiet spot for afternoon tea. Staff very welcoming. Covid safety features clearly in place. Plenty of additional seating outside. Just be aware that the Tea rooms are closing at 3pm at the moment.

Wow. Amazing location and great food. Popped up to Surrey from Bournemouth to visit family and catch up with an old friend. Excellent service from amazing staff. All credit to them being open in these difficult times, and doing it so well.

Tucked away it’s a hidden gem, we had a delicious cream tea on a wet Saturday afternoon. The scones were served warm, lovely jam and clotted cream and piping hot tea, the mismatched china is a nice touch. There is a good selection of cakes including gluten free and lots of choice on the menu for lunch. The staff were friendly and helpful, I would recommend a visit.

Visited today for lunch. The Crayfish tails baguette was delicious as was the accompanying salad and coleslaw. The staff were very polite and helpful. Looking forward to a return visit

Atmosphere & service OK, food OK apart from the large amount of salad leaves which are cheap to produce and fill the plate, we all left about half of ours as it was too much, the real issue i personally had was that on the gents toilet door was a handwritten note asking people to be gentle with the bolt on the door as it was not in good repair (WELL B****Y FIX IT) and the worst thing was that half the gents toilet floor was flooded in what appeared to be urine this started around the base of the toilet pan and flowed outward and it also stank, there will be no repeat visit from any of our party.

If you want an out of the way rustic venue for delicious coffee and cake or light lunch then this is an ideal spot. I regret I find the pop music intrusive. If they must have music it would be better to have light classical or similar for their clientele.

Another cycling visit very nice place simple menu pleasant staff and a lovely warm fire in the back of the room a very nice relaxing place

Amazing find! Late lunch, followed by coffee and cake. Good food, wonderful cakes and attentive staff. I loved the fact that I didn't get interrupted half way through my lunch with the annoyingly inane "is everything ok?" We'll definitely be back, even it's just for coffee and cake!

Came here as it was mentioned on surrey live website, lovey place very busy, only do cafeteria of coffee no cappuccino etc, cakes were yummy, was surprised as it’s owned by pinnocks in Ripley.

The customer service is excellenta and the choice of teas brilliant with fresh coffee served in your own cafetierre with a choice of hot, cold milk or cream brilliant. The sleection of cakes is outstanding. Very comfortable cafe with real atmosphere. Welldone

Decided to have lunch out with my partner, but wanted something different than the usual Guildford town centre hustle and bustle . Have always loved the classic tea rooms and this did not disappoint .Wonderful surroundings, fabulous food and lovely staff . Will definitely be coming back.

I had read an article on this cafe on the whats on in Surrey app and was very interested to read about the home made cakes as we have found that good moist cake is not always served when promised but here it was with a delicious courgette cake. We arrived to find the indoors full so sat outside and it was nice to see rugs and hot water bottles supplied for cool days. The hot chocolate was delicious and the tea in a pot good. Lovely selection of homemade scones and cakes available.

Well worth the 60 mile round cycle trip, Excellent location, Fantastic setting with plenty of room to sit inside and out, the Staff were very friendly and helpful (Thank You ), We had the Bacon and Sausage sandwich’s and a coffee, Excellent value for money, if your cycling, walking or driving in that area pop in, you won’t be disappointed

...but why? Easy location but close to countryside walks, Friendly staff (and owner, cosy cafe, selection of food (good cakes) and dog friendly.

We stumbled upon this little gem at the weekend - we will definitely be back - can't wait for the cold winter and to sit inside with a nice warm soup followed by their amazing scones! :)

We visited today as we had read about it in the local news and had looked at other reviews.

This is our little hideaway. Fab cake, lovely staff and art on the walls. It's cosy in the winter but lovely to sit outside and look at the church in the summer sun. If you're in the area, do yourself a favour and make a detour to this place :)

I’m a local and have visited many times. Although it was busier than normal I was told because of a recent social media story,the staff as always were friendly, cheerful, efficient and professional. The food delicious. We realised one drink hadn’t arrived and mentioned it to the staff and it was brought immediately. Love this place

So I've popped into manor Farm Tea Rooms this afternoon after an early meeting, to be amazed at how busy it was, apparently they have had a mention online as one of Surreys Gems somewhere.

Went here with my Dad for the first time and had lunch and it was lovely! Staff were so friendly and welcoming. We had two bacon and Brie baguettes followed by cream teas and they were delicious. Definitely worth a visit and will be going back soon!!

Had a lovely lunch and cake here too. It was really busy but the staff where really lovely nothing was too much trouble. Will definetly be back again very soon

Food was tasty ,I had a BLT and my husband had a bacon baguette . Cafettiere and a pot of tea. Staff very friendly and a lovely little craft shop next door.

My friend Bill bought me here on Friday, thinking I’d like it. He was wrong - I absolutely loved it! From the twinkly fairy lights to the friendly staff this place is a gem! It was a bit of a miserable autumn day but the log burner was lit & it was so warm & cosy. We had the afternoon tea (we’d gone for brunch but the afternoon tea looked too good not to have) we weren’t disappointed, you could have a sandwich of your choice & either cake or scone with jam & clotted cream - it was so delicious.

Always cosy but a bit muddled, the great range of cakes and teas have been retained whilst new menus, a bit of de-cluttering and, I think, a better brand of coffee, have lifted this tea room to another level. Traditional, quirky, a bit eclectic, great to have such a range of gluten free cakes all on one shelf in the display cabinet but why not label them as such?

This place never fails to delight.. always worth a detour if you are nearby. The food and drinks are outstanding.

Took the family here for lunch, the service is always excellent, friendly and efficient and the food is top notch. Excellent choice of teas and the cakes are so delicious it’s hard to choose. Lovely.

Hadn't been back here for years and on a whim decided to drop in. It was WONDERFUL!!!! I had sausage roll with salad. The coleslaw was super too. Went again and I wanted some 'posh sourdough' but brother-in-law ordered before me and had the last one. Thank you Kevin. You owe me. Anway, lovely to sit outside both times in the sunny, warm courtyard. All the food's homemade, and tastes it -delightful!

please visit and have the best hot chocolate ever truly scrumptious and as always brilliant service even though packed

What a truly wonderful little tea rooms. It is Quaint, cosy (especially when it's cold outside and the wood burner is on) and the staff are friendly and helpful.

We visited here for a sandwich on way home from Loseley Gardens on recommendation of reviews. We were not disappointed. It was very busy but we sat outside as lovely day. The choice and price is good. We enjoyed the sandwich and lovely coffee. Dogs are welcome and cyclists seem to have it as a stop off. We would visit again if in the area. We received a very warm welcome.

Lovely out of the way T Room on the edge of the Hog's Back, just what is needed 4 a great chill out afternoon & very lovely staff as well.

First time visiting the Manor Farm Tea Room but I will definitely be back. Such a selection of cakes and scones so it was difficult to make a decision on what to have. Friendly staff who brought over our order in a matter of minutes. Lovely china tea cups to enjoy our tea and scones.

Short stop off for coffee and cake. Very pleasant experience. Great service, one of the best decaf coffees I've tasted anywhere and a pistachio, lime and white chocolate cake to die for. Unlikely I'll be passing that way again which is a shame but I'd highly recommend this tea room / coffee shop to anyone in the vicinity.

First found this tea room when family tree tracing 12 years ago. Now we visit every year when staying nearby visiting relations. Great tea and cakes and a lovely shop alongside. See you next year!

We went for the first time on Sun for lunch, lovely clean cafe, fab tea, coffee and food and the staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Lovely service, polite dog friendly, very good quality tea and sandwiches. Highly recommend a stop for a friendly lazy tea.

We've worked near this place for years and never been, so we decided to go today for a special birthday in the office. The food was great, well presented and the choice of cakes was vast, we definitely will be visiting again soon.

This was our 1st visit to Manor Farm Tea room and it certainly will not be the last we had the afternoon tea with cake as well as scones it was delicious the service was really good parking was great as well 👍

I do like a quaint country tearoom. This is exactly what you get. Just minutes from the Hogs Back and you are transported to a delightful location. Sit outside with the sun shining down with a scrummy cake and tea. However today it was just too risky with the weather and chose to sit inside. It was busy but the girls did a great job clearing tables and bringing food out quickly. We had sweet red pepper quiche with goats cheese and sausage roll salad. Just right for a light bite. Nice to visit the craft shop next door and Windy Milla cycles. Will go again in the week.

Pretty good coffee and nice sandwiches, in a lovely old barn. Good service and a pleasant place to meet friends for a chat and relax.

I was introduced to the Manor Farm Tea Room by a friend. I haven't stopped going back since and go at least once a week. It is exactly what the title suggests and is in part of an ex-farm building. The ambience is exactly what you want when you just wish to relax and eat cake! All of the cakes are home made and there is an amazing variety at any one time. The range of teas is impressive (all leave, no teabags) and there is no fancy coffee machine. It is simply a cafetiere of very good coffee. Service couldn't be any better. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Some great paintings around the walls make for some interesting discussion. More than anything for me, I always feel welcome and appreciated. Try it and see, I would wager that, like me, if you live within a few miles it will become a regular place for Tea and Cake.

Me and my boyfriend are local so wanted a slice of cake and got great recommendations so went in for a cake take away. The girl who served us was obviously new so asked questions to the manager who talked her through it. It took a long time to get our 2 slices and when we opened the box they were paper thin and not worth £2.75 a slice!

Homemade cakes, and light meals. Lovely friendly staff, inside its warm and cosy with old stone walls featuring a gallery from local artists. Outside there’s seating (with blankets !).

Well worth a vist for their home-made cakes and pastries ... and a visit next door to buy some fresh baked bread or a Cake or Biscuits

I visited with my large cream Golden Retriever who happened to be rather muddy and I chose to sit outside. The gentleman kindly cleaned and dried off the wooden bench and even brought me out a blanket in case I was cold! (I should point out they were more than happy for the dog and I to sit inside). I had coffee and scone which was delicious. I would thoroughly recommend this lovely tea room with its welcoming staff.

Great quality sandwiches, drinks and cakes available, in a small little cafe off the main road. There are only a small number of tables but the tea room is nicely decorated with tea cups and teapots etc to add character. Limited parking, but nice local area. Although a little underwhelmed by the vegan options available, given they advertise that they have a great vegan menu.

We stumbled on this place today. Initially we were only going to have coffee but had a lunchtime snack as well as other people’s coming out from the kitchen looked so nice. We were Not disappointed. The food was excellent. Will we go back again to this hidden gem, you bet.

This tea room just happens to be on the way home from my daughters school, as such we have visited a few times, we are always welcomed warmly and we have enjoyed the cakes and tea. I have yet to try anything other than cake or ice cream but will definitely do so in future.

My daughter told me about this place as I didn't know it existed. Paid a visit with my elderly mother on a cold and wet Sunday afternoon to find a warm, cosy and friendly little tearoom. It was a bit late in the day, so there were not quite so many choices of cake around as I would have hoped, but nevertheless the one I had was very nice.

Since my last review of Manor House Tea Rooms a few years ago, I’m delighted to say we’ve recently returned to find the whole place has had a complete transformation. There is now a very comprehensive menu at reasonable prices. We chose the parsnip soup which came with a crusty baguette. It was excellent! And all served with a cheery smile and good banter. Something which was very much lacking by the previous owners. The other food being served to other customers looked delicious, too. It was very busy - deservedly so. Also, lovely loose leaf tea with china cups, and proper coffee in cafetière. Can’t wait to return. Only downside is very limited parking.

This is more than a chintzy tea rooms it does a good range of light lunches and full on afternoon teas. Housed in an old farm building in a court yard this is a very pleasant place to visit in the small village of Seale near Farnham in Surrey. The lunch menu is not extensive but excellent soup of the day - honey and parsnip the day we visited- ploughmans, large jacket potatoes with fillings, finished off with great choice of home made cakes with tea of coffee. No drinks licence but that makes a nice change. We did'nt stop for the afternoon teas but the scones, again all home made, look lovely , even if the cream and jams were in pre-sealed pots.

Stopped for lunch at Manor farm. The greeting was friendly and the tearoom welcoming. There is a very large wood burner at the back of the tearoom which made the welcome warm and inviting. I chose the Crayfish tail sandwich on brown bread. The portion of Crayfish was generous and was served on very tasty Brown bread which is delivered to the tearoom from a bakers in Walton upon Thames. The sandwich was served with a salad with dressing and crisps. The breakfast tea was delicious. The menu is comprehensive and the cake display warrants a return visit! The very nice way to spend your lunchtime. Would highly recommend

What is there not to like this cosy tea room with excellent cakes and proper tea and coffee served in proper cups? Don't mind the cyclists: they are very friendly if a little off putting and hot in the lycra outfits.

My friends and I walked our dogs locally (on the road for just a few minutes, but mainly off lead around fields), then sat outside in the sun (but a lovely inside too if preferred). Between us we had teas and coffees, cake and I love Andy's home made quiche. The cakes are very good and for those who need gluten free cake, a good range on their own shelf. Warm and friendly helpful staff. We parked easily and my sat nav with the post code took us to the door. The shop also sold local maps for walks and things, which I thought was a very good idea. We will be going back regularly, even though it is a 20 minute drive for us.

Excellent jacket potatoes, with fillings on side in tea cups. Good idea ! Generous helpings. Good selection of cakes too.

Called at 11.30 for a coffee and it was very quiet but by 12.15 it was packed and obviously a popular little cafe. I usually have black coffee and the single cafetière

A very charming cottage style cafe in pretty Seale. Service was friendly and tea was lovely. The place is very cosy and comfortable. Highly recommended.

Lovely, freshly made food with gluten & dairy free options. China cups & saucers, good tea & very friendly people. A really nice lunch or afternoon tea at very reasonable prices in a pretty village setting. Will definitely be going back!

Went to experience the infamous courgette cake my niece raves about, I wasn't dissapointed that's for sure! Had a lunch of tuna & cucumber on multigrain bloomer followed by coffee & cake. Very yummy indeed & the staff are all so friendly & welcoming. The shop sells some exquiste homemade things too - lovely little place.

We had a very tasty and substantial lunch in this clean and attractive tea shop which we came across by pure serendipity. Would definitely visit again. They even boxed up the salad I couldn’t finish so I could eat it later. All the staff delightful, welcoming and attentive. Thank you.

Had a really tasty sandwich each and a lovely atmosphere. It was tucked away and parking was a bit tricky but not the tea room's fault and the staff were all lovely and welcoming. Would definitely come back!

Have been here several times now and the salads and sandwiches are lovely and fresh, although sometimes they seem to forget the Tomatoes which are meant to be included!? The first 3 visits the coffee was lovely and I was going to ask if I could buy some but the last couple of times it has been made too weak!? and was almost transparent. The staff are always polite and welcoming and I will definitely continue to visit{ and ask for stronger coffee!}

Absolutely love this Little Gem! Delicious Cakes, Beautiful Setting and Attentive, Friendly Staff - I recommend to Everyone! Xx

I met a friend here for lunch on a very sunny sunday. We were delighted with what we found. Tea was made from loose leaf in proper pots. I had ploughmans whereas my friend had the quiche. We nosied around the craft shop and returned for a cheese scone & sponge cake. We'll definitely be back in fact my friend has already arranged to meet her mum there.

Visited for lunch with my wife as we had not been for about eighteen months so we thought we'd give it a go ,to be really honest we were disappointed to say the least ,the choice for lunch was'nt a great choice at all , omelettes,toasties and sandwiches and then there,s the specials board which consisted of a so called mixed meat ploughman's ( roast beef,pork pie,game,pie?,sausage roll ) not what I,d call a mixed meat exactly with a bit of salad ,relish, crisps,silver skin onions and a roll and butter ,nice but not worth the £9.95 ,all in all the food we had was nice not out standing and definitely on the expensive side,we think different people have taken over since our last visit so we won,t be rushing back which is a shame as we do travel to get here and for a long time we did enjoy our visits .

Delicious food we had salad baked pot wonderful service gorgeous place very relaxing would recommend xxxx

A delightful off-the-beaten-track cafe for light lunch or cream tea, with a craft shop next door. Outdoor seating available. Friendly staffing and excellent home-made food.

Haven't been here in about twenty years but popped in with my mother one very cold May morning. Could not work out if the decor is an ironic homage to a time gone by or if it has just not been altered in the last quarter of a century!

Came upon the tea room by accident , we took a wrong turn and here we were Seemed rude not to stop Very friendly , lovely converted barn Great cafetière of coffee and lovely homemade cake

What a treasure! Delicious food, brilliant location.

Been visiting once a month for 10 years now, you'd think I'd be bored! The staff are outstanding, they couldn't do anymore for you if they tried. The food is always freshly made and the specials are constantly changing, making every visit a surprise what you can have! Seale tea room is perfect In the winter, with their cosy large burner and the outside seating area in the summer is perfect.

Used to go here quite a lot when a couple of old ladies ran it for homemade soup and a sandwich always good. Couple of years ago the soup became tinned for what ever reason so stopped going. Went last weekend to try it again and pleased to say it is back to its former glory if not even a little bit better with some of the menu choices. Soup was back to being great and the cakes very good (especially the lemon drizzle). Well done to the new owners great little cafe, keep up the good work

Lovely traditional tearoom with tables inside and out - always nicely buzzy. Delicious home made cakes (lemon drizzle and shortbreak are particular favourites!). Friendly service and tea served on proper china!

A cute converted barn - I had the scone with clotted cream and it was disappointing to say the least! The scone crumbled into my hands and fell apart and cream was packaged and not fresh. Tea was nice. Based on the cream tea, not impressed so not sure what the rest of the food is like!

Heard that this had changed hands, but if anything it has improved slightly from an excellent base. Main change is the quality of coffee used, though still in cafetieres, it is even better. Had a divine sausage roll - nothing basic or ordinary about this one - lovely.

Absolutely fantastic find tucked away off Elstead Road! Beautiful homemade cakes which were even better than mine and really good value as well. Went in with my book and ordered a cup of tea and cake and it was brought over very quickly. I thoroughly enjoyed my afternoon out and read my book without any interuptions.....perfect!

Stoped for cake and tea when visiting the bike shop next door. Very good. Cake lovely. While range of different teas to try.

Visited many years ago and have not been back since. Took a friend after her hospital visit and we were made to feel very welcome. There was a nice range of food. The food we choose was nicely presented, fairly priced and set in comfortable surroundings. Will definitely go back.

Lovely setting. Lots of potential but the portions are far too small for the money. The soup was extremely average and would not have again.
