Someday Something in East Devon

Called in mid-afternoon, v busy but fast and efficient service, drank excellent coffee and ate very tasty Guinness and chocolate, will revisit and recommend

Super friendly place. Caters well for all dietary requirements. Enjoyed lunch here a couple of times during our stay. Gluten free scones fabulous.

We stopped here for coffee on a visit to Sidmouth. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming and coffee very good. The cafe was busy but everyone was warmly welcomed as we were which created a really nice atmosphere. Later in the afternoon we returned for tea scones and cake which were delicious! A highly recommended cafe when in town but next time we’ll have lunch too!

Excellent. Lovely service. Great great homemade cake. We didn’t have the freshly baked scones, but they looked delicious too. We highly recommend this cafe. We were privileged to get a late table and felt very smug to be sat inside eating such indulgent and delicious cake, whilst a few stragglers were too late to bag a table. But honestly…you can’t help feeling smug when in possession of such a fine piece of cake :)

Superb food and service We went for soup & cheese scone and cheese & mushroom frittata. Scone soo good, had to have one with cream & jam - Delish

Great little cafe. Googled “best cream tea in Sidmouth” and this cafe was recommended and it didn’t disappoint. A delicious freshly made fruit scone with generous portion of jam and clotted cream. The two lovely ladies who run it are so friendly and welcoming. Dog friendly too. Would definitely return and highly recommend.

This delightful place is right by the wall of the Parish Church. We had a cup of tea and a scone. Both excellent and a really warm welcome given to us. It also seemed to have local customers which is always a good sign. Highly recommended

What a sweet little place and dog friendly too, bonus! We stumbled across this cute cafe while visiting the area and looking for somewhere to have breakfast. The staff we welcoming and friendly and it was clear they have a good relationship and great loyalty from the locals. I had the porridge and my husband a bacon bap. It was really tasty and a great little pit stop for us while exploring this lovely little town. Thank you.

An awesome venue. Friendly welcome, great ambiance and outstanding coffee and snacks. I have not tasted better carrot cake and my wife loved the scone. The ladies here make running a top quality coffee shop look easy.

It was a rainy day in February and this place was great. A simple menu, I had pea soup with a cheese scone, both were simple and really great. The staff were really friendly, and the place felt like a community hub.

Myself and my partner had the ‘frittatas of the day’ and they were spectacular! Honestly such gorgeous food from a lovely small corner coffee shop! Very friendly and super quick service!

We left Sidmouth a couple of days ago but I’m still dreaming about that out- of-this-world delicious cream tea we had at Someday Something. How they make scones like that I will never know and count myself lucky to have had the chance to experience a truly sensational cream tea. If you don’t go you’ll regret it!

A wonderful tea room in a great location- visited twice during a recent holiday and the service was outstanding, setting the standard that others aspire to! Enjoyed a bottle of Prosecco al fresco with cake and then returned later in the week for the gorgeous afternoon tea which was amazing! (Book in advance for afternoon tea). Catered for dietary requirements perfectly and the food was delicious. Well done to Team Someday Something ! Will definitely return and have already recommended. Thank you all !

Visited today - the staff are lovely, the ?proprietor checked everything was good with all of the tables and made everyone feel welcome. The cakes are delicious - especially the sticky ginger. A lot of customers appeared to be regulars - can understand why. Thanks

We stopped and sat outside today on a very gloomy summer afternoon & had a scrumptious cream tea ...it was really delicious. The fruit & plain scones were light and tasty, there was a plentiful amount of both jam/conserve and clotted cream. It was served on beautiful floral china plates with teapots and cups & saucers, which really added to the beauty. We had great friendly service & I would eargerly return to try more of their menu.

This is a very favourite place of ours, we have many holidays in Sidmouth and found this little Jewel some time ago, and continue to use it. The cream teas, which is how we found them, are , in our opinion, the very best that Devon can offer! The rest of their menu is specific and excellent quality . Considering the size of the premises, they serve up a magic of greatness that is lovely and delicious. Served with eagerness and pleasantness and all the other "Nesses" one can think of. As said before, " if you are in Sidmouth and hungry for something" then head for this one. The praise is well deserved , they work hard at the business and make it the success that it is. P.S. They are getting known, so go earlier rather than later, especially for the cream tea's, Scones are yummy. Highly recommended.

A lot of the reviews here rave about the scones, I can now see why. They are without a doubt the best I've ever tasted. We've had two cream teas in the last month and they have been great. The staff are also excellent. If I have a gripe it's that being so popular it is not always easy to get a table which is a further recommendation in itself.

My wife and I stopped for a cream tea. We had a plain and fruit scone and a pot of tea. What a great place and value for money. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I must if you are in Sidmouth

Whilst holidaying in Sidmouth we came across this cafe which seemed rather busy,we didn't have to wait long for a table outside.We both had the Scone with Jam & Clotted cream.The Scone was nice and light and full of fruit,Jam was very tasty.The staff were very friendly and helpful.Next time we come back on Holiday we will definitely come back for the scones.

A super coffee house which serves delicious coffee and so much more. Lovely option to it out on the footpath by the church and watch the world go by. One of my favourite places to visit. I would highly recommend the cream tea and the porridge but not both together. The owner and team really make the place buzz, so welcoming and provide super service. Highly recommended well worth a visit.

Didn't get to eat here. I was looking forward to bringing my visiting friend. The website food looked good. I am local & I know the scones are good, but we just wanted a sandwich & a drink. No menus on table. Sat for awhile without attendance, then realised menu was by the door. No sandwiches on menu, yet their website definitely says they do a variety of sandwiches, toasties & Tuna melt. Very disappointed. Who wants soup on a warm day? They shouldn't say they serve sandwiches on the Website if they don't. When I queried it with Jamie? she just said they only had what was on the printed menu, so we walked out without eating there.

Came here for Afternoon Tea and although you need to book a day in advance for the full afternoon tea experience, we settled for the breakfast bap and cream tea for two. The food was delicious and fresh and the service was top quality. The staff knew all the locals by name and the atmosphere was lovely just to sit and soak in. Would very much recommend to anybody visiting Sidmouth!

A super little cafe restaurant. Staffed by delightful people and serving attractive, interesting and tasty food. Good eats, good drinks and super service. All round a massive ht with me

We came here late on a Sunday afternoon after a day on the beach. The team greeted us warmly and were more than happy/able to accommodate our needs. They put in a fresh batch of scones just for us. The cream tea was delicious -...

Great Tea, scones and simple lunches, but most of all, the brilliant atmosphere that the staff create - the place shines “Welcome, be happy” no matter what the weather, or the press of people ❤️

We visit Sidmouth a lot and this is a lovely little coffee shop. They serve THE BEST scones ever so it’s always a treat for us to pop in. The staff always polite and friendly. Highly recommended. 5⭐️

Fantastic coffee and toasted tea cake. The staff were exceptional and created such a lovely aura. A great start to the day :)

Having been enticed inside by a wonderful aroma, we thought we'd stop for a cuppa and a snack. Took 5 minutes for the staff to clear empty tables, and organise dogs. Eventually seated, we waited to be served......and waited. Despite catching the eye of the...

I visit this coffee shop every time I visit Sidmouth (about once a month) and have never been disappointed. The coffee is really good, the home made cakes are just delicious and so are the staff. It was lovely to sit outside in the sun...

Excellent experience once again. I always try to have cream tea at Someday Something when I’m in Sidmouth and was lucky this time that I got a seat indoors as it was raining. Staff are really lovely and I feel very welcome every time. Needles...

Delicious coffee, tasty food and very friendly staff make this place well worth visiting. The home-made fritatta is expecially nice.

Visited here last week for a cream tea there scones are the best you will ever find. The staff make you feel so welcome nothing to much trouble will certainly be making it our first stop when we’re in Devon again.

Fantastic little cafe. Outside/inside seating, China cups with service that is unrivalled. Our table was clean and the lady serving us was spot on. They care about their customers and their Experience.

Stopped by this gem for something sweet after a long walk. We tried a scone and a slice of Victoria sponge, both were excellent with hearty portions. The staff were very attentive and engaging. A lovely spot to sit outside in the sunshine!

Fabulous, we had great decaffeinated coffee and returned later for more and a scone and carrot cake. Welcoming staff, dogs are allowed as well. Will definitely return, the menu looks varied. Lovely to see a non chain thriving. Thank you

Tucked away in a delightful little corner by the church, this little cafe is a real treat. Excellent coffee, delicious home made soup, and a tasty toastie. What more could you want? Oh, yes, wonderfully friendly staff and owner. Please avoid the chain cafes and...

On recent visit to Sidmouth looked out for this place on reading great reviews on TA , very friendly young ladies running this place, the cream tea was amazing, scone melted in your mouth, lots of jam & cream, highly recommend, delicious.

This Cafe is a hidden gem of Sidmouth. I keep on going back, I have had a toasted sandwitch, cake, cream tea, breakfast bap: all absolutely delicious, a real treat. The cafe and the food are presented beautifully. The staff are friendly and attentive making...

Called for scones, savoury and with cream. Scones were fresh with plenty of jam and cream to go with. Savoury came with cheese and plenty of pickle. Staff friendly and place very clean. Would recommend.

Great to be back in the area and Someday Something is always a 'must visit'! Friendly, relaxed atmosphere with staff who are genuinely pleasant and helpful, providing outstanding customer service. Locals and holiday makers frequent this delightful place and no wonder- it is so welcoming!...

Beautiful little place friendly staff, clean and very welcoming, service top notch and yes the scones are the best in Devon - really enjoyable visit

Amazing food, staff and atmosphere. We regularly visit Sidmouth from Bristol and Someday Something is generally our first port of call and always on our list of ‘things to do’. We have been known to visit twice in one day! Lunch first and then coffee/cake...

This has to be the best tea room in Sidmouth , and I’ve tried a lot of them. Whether you want breakfast , mid morning coffee , lunch or afternoon team it’s the place to go. The food is amazing, without doubt the best scones in town. The drinks menu is varied with options for everyone including an additional alcoholic tipple or two. The girls who run it are so lovely , happy , smiley and chatty . I really cannot praise Someday Something enough.

Found by chance, had the best cream tea, unusual and delicious date scones. All four of us loved it. Really good flat white coffee too. Will definitely recommend to friends and visit again. Staff were really nice and helpful to accommodate 4 people with a little shuffling of chairs.

Had a lovely cream tea here, swapped tea for coffee for 2 of our party and also served peppermint tea for another, with no problems at all.The cream tea itself was delicious! After initial disappointment that they had run out of plain scones which was our preference, as not a lover of sultanas, we were informed that the scones had dates in, which were beautiful, both huge and light. Served with lashings of cream and jam and we were told that if we needed any more(we didn’t) just ask, it’s no problem.Overall, a lovely experience.

Lovely lunch , great selection especially for vegetarians. Brie and fig toastie , delicious. Service excellent and reasonably priced.

We visited for a late lunch and sat outside. Our table was quickly prepared and we were warmly welcomed. Tea and toasties. Beautifully presented and delicious. But it’s the staff who make it. Couldn’t be more friendly.

The cream tea was absolutely delicious. A gigantic, pillowy fruit scone with a mountain of clotted cream and lashings of strawberry jam served on a floral china plate with a matching cup and saucer. The ladies at Someday Something very kindly let me have a cream tea as a very last order at 4pm, and it didn’t disappoint. I’d highly recommend a visit, but do get there in time: it’s a very popular place (although they do do takeaway cream teas, which is an excellent Next Best Thing). I agree with my fellow reviewers, this really is the best cream tea in Sidmouth!

Whilst in Sidmouth we wanted to stop somewhere for a coffee and snack so asked a shop assistant for recommendations rather than just trying somewhere we were unsure of. We were really pleased we asked as this is a gem that we wouldn’t have found otherwise. Lovely polite staff and definitely a popular place with tourists and locals alike. I would definitely recommend the chocolate milkshake it was delicious. We will be returning next time we are in Devon.

Visiting family in the west county and met up with more family in Sidmouth. The weather was very good. We managed to get a table outside as we waited for some ladies to vacate the table.I ordered the brie, apple and fig jam panini; very enjoyable. The Aspall cider was recommended, especially with extra ice.Jamey the owner was very warm and welcoming. Always smiling and very efficient. Nothing was too much trouble.Would recommend a visit

Who needs an afternoon tea when a Devon Cream Tea is sufficient - fantastic scones and cakes and the tea choice was excellent - should have taken the cheese scones home as if they were anything like as good as the fruit/plain ones, then they would have been superb - really friendly people who run the place

Stopped by this little cafe for a light lunch with the family whilst visiting Sidmouth - well what a find ! It was amazing !!! We all ordered toasties one cheese and onion, two cheese and ham and my absolute favourite tuna melt ! They were all fabulous ! Mine even came with the option for gerkins ! We ordered a wine a coke and an absolutely heavenly chocolate milkshake and I had a hot spiced apple - it was fantastic ! The place had a very friendly atmosphere, there was no hustle and bustle and no rushing - it was just what we like ! It felt just like our neighbour hood cafe back home!We would thoroughly recommend this place to anyone visiting Sidmouth.It was small but perfectly formed !!!

We spoke to the staff while walking past and was told that they can accommodate a gluten free diet as i suffer from coeliac disease. I was shown what was available from the menu and had gf scones, jam & cream which was brilliant. Friendly staff and excellent service from the staff.

Amazing cream, scones, ambiance, and our waitress was so sweet and wonderful! Thank you for the lovely afternoon cream and tea

We stopped by for a cuppa. The service was great. We got a table outdoor initially but were then moved inside quickly when the rain started. I had a cream tea for one and it was served with generous serving of jam and clotted cream. I find the scone quite bready in texture, unlike the traditional type. The bacon sarnie looked great with a good portion of bacon.

Had a trip planned to Sidmouth on Monday 5th July.Had done a bit of research on Gluten free lunches .Had already decided to try this establishment and was not disappointed.Had a small wait for a table ,which was disinfected by very pleasant staff and we ordered a pesto and chicken toasted sandwich.It was superb ,very tasty and well presented.My wife had the gluten free toastie with cheese .which was also delicious .A fabulous find in Sidmouth ,and one that we will be back very soon .Sidmouth has so much to offer and a great place to visit.

Take a lovely pot of tea. Add a delicious scone with top class cream and jam. Result, best cream tea around! Super friendly service too!

Fabulous cream tea in the sunshine. Excellent service, excellent cream tea with the BEST scones ever! Proper china cups and saucers, large teapot - enough for several cups. So reasonably priced too. Highly recommend this little gem. Thank you so much to all the staff.

Visiting the area and tummy rumbles meant sustenance was required and so we stumbled upon this oasis and wow, we were so impressed.Covid protection measures in place and practised by all.Tea room was full on our arrival but a short 5 - 10min wait afforded us an inside table.Service was fantastic, really friendly, caring and eager to help.To drink we choose a pot of tea and a strawberry milkshake - this was made with real strawberries, best of all it arrived in a quaint milk bottle with a red+white straw. So what you say, but the fun part here was, the waitress and I both rembering the 70's when Unigate Diaries gave away red+white stripped products promoting 'watch out there's a humphrey' To eat, the largest, softest scone was devoured with massive pots of jam and clotted cream.....also a brie, apple & fig jam toasties. Both of these were amazing.Highly recommended.

Very friendly place. Coffee and breakfast were great. I did have a cream scone for breakfast!!! It deserves its great reputation

Perfect small cafe. Friendly staff and sensible menu. The type of cafe you always hope to find on a wet (or any other) day, but rarely do. Coffee is particularly good, Deserves all the praise from other reviewers!

Stopped for an afternoon coffee with a cream tea. Delicious scone, loads of very tasty jam and gorgeous clotted cream. Highly recommended.

Had a really nice lunch here, frittata & salad my husband had a delicious Brie apple & fig toastie. Tasty coffee too. Extremely friendly staff. Highly recommend.

We happened upon this lovely little cafe whilst wandering around Sidmouth on a grey day when lockdown restrictions meant we could not eat indoors. The bright orange parasols made a pretty picture against the backdrop of the church yard and the pedestrianised street made it a nice, quiet option. The number of tables was limited but we were lucky. The waitresses were friendly and welcoming. As our visit was mid morning we only had a small snack but I couldn’t resist a cream tea and my husband had an egg bap. The cream tea was delicious, freshly baked scone, homemade strawberry jam and proper clotted cream. It was possibly the nicest scone I have ever eaten! To top it all off it was served on pretty floral china. Such a lovely little spot, we would recommend it to all.

Great warm welcome, perfect oat latte, good atmosphere and excellent service. We will be defiantly be coming back here.

The most delicious bacon sandwich we've had and lovely coffees too - kind and friendly staff, would recommend

Fantastic little cafe in a lovely location serving excellent scones, cakes, teas and coffees. Staff are very friendly, warm and welcoming. Can’t recommend highly enough if you can get a table, definitely worth waiting for one though.

A really comfortable, clean cafe serving really great dishes. The coffee is great, the date scones are really moreish ! Hubby loves their bacon butties....and the tiffin...the toasties ...all served by smiley staff. Current Covid rules apply. The tables are quickly filled as people leave, there is often people “ hovering’ for a table, always a good sign ! Their background music is sublime.Why on earth would anyone choose a faceless chain coffee shop when we have these amazing littles Gems in town ?We will certainly be regulars .

This brilliant cafe is nestled right in the heart of Sidmouth with tables outside, and totally covid friendly A big smile greeted us and we ordered two glasses of white wine, one a sauvignon and a pinot grigio but not from a wine list. When mine arrived, I could not believe how delicious it was and my partner who is a big wine lover agreed that his was to. The toasties were a treat, great bread and came with a delicious salad. It certainly was not not an afterthought garnish like so many other places! We could not fit in the giant scones ( baked daily) that we saw waft by us, but will make it our business to do so next time. Personal touches and gorgeous food make this a place really worth seeking out. The staff are so welcoming and at the top of their game. Thank you.

Really nice cafe with friendly staff and excellent service. Only had drinks so cannot comment about the food, albeit it looked good in passing! Outdoor eating on the pavement as well as indoors - Covid rules adhered to throughout.

Best scones I’ve ever eaten, this is a little gem! Lovely staff, great location and beautiful food make this a must if you want a truly authentic tea room experience.

Fantastic little cafe, a real gem! Staff are always professional, friendly and very knowledgeable when it comes to allergies. Great food and location. My coeliac husband can eat here with no worries. Recommend the GF fruit scones. Very Covid safe. Tables are at an appropriate distance, staff wearing masks and chairs and tables sanitised between customers.

We stopped here for lunch and the food is so good. We are a family with two little ones and staff were super accommodating and friendly. All staff wore masks,tables were kept scrupulously clean and great Covid measures in place. Tables inside and out. Coffee and hot drinks menu is amazing. We're going back for a hot chocolate with Baileys and a boozy milkshake

After visiting sidmouth recently and reading online that ‘someday something’ sold the best scones in town, we had to stop here for lunch. Google did not lie, they were amazing! We also had the most delicious sandwiches and the girls there are lovely and smiley and made our trip even more special. Well worth a visit!
