Somers Vintage Tea Rooms in Mid Sussex

I have visited Somers a few times now and every time the service, food and drinks have been perfect! I will definitely be making more visits in the future.

Thank you much for such a lovely afternoon tea delivery today. After a recommendation from a friend decided to book. A good selection and great portion of sandwiches and cakes that came with some still/sparkling drinks. Delivery was prompt on the time ordered for. Would order again!

Quite a nice place, food and coffee was OK, but I’m wondering if they are keen to have repeat business.The waitress was grumpy and never smiled once. Perhaps a customer relations course might not be a bad idea.Shame - because the place has potential. I’d go somewhere else next visit.

Beautiful tea rooms, lovely owners and exceptional scones!! Very spacious and relaxed, friendly staff and homemade scones were just amazing! Generous portion of cream too!

Stumbled across this simple little tea shop on our way back from an afternoon walk at Wakehurst Place. Lovely welcoming staff. Amazingly light and moist homemade coffee cake and Victoria sponge cake. Absolutely delicious and guaranteed “no nuts”! Will hunt it out again when passing.

We had quiche lunch and some of the afternoon tea items for afters. So fresh and home made it was a superb experience. Best to book if you want a real afternoon tea of scones, cakes and sandwiches. The scones are absolutely mouthwatering and equal best we’ve had this summer. The cake selection was beautiful. I tried a coffee cake which moist and not too sweet, so I was very pleased. All the family want to go again! Very friendly service

We popped into Lindfield and stumbled across this lovely vintage tearoom. We thoroughly enjoyed the sandwich and scone and cream. The coffee and tea were also very good we will definitely come here again. Lindfield is also such a pretty place well worth a visit.

A great place with great atmosphere and quaint feel to the rooms, service very good lots of homemade items for sale but it does get busy

Excellent food and coffee, thoroughly recommended. Freshly made and good portions. Ideal if you just want tea or coffee and cake but also serve meals.

Wood block tables and a variety of pictures around the walls gives this the “vintage” feel. Like the simple menu and the personal service.

Stopped off at this amazing village cafe on Sunday for a light lunch. The service was quick, the quality of food was very high and all sourced locally. The sandwiches were freshly made to order and drinks tasted amazing. I will certainly be stopping here again when passing the area (even if a little detour is required, well worth it)

We have visited many times over the last few years and always been very happy. Best cooked Breakfast for miles!! Maddy works tirelessly to ensure her customers 100% satisfaction and ALWAYS greets us with a warm welcome. Our food & drinks are always delivered promptly and with a smile. Prices are very reasonable too! Our whole family looks forward to visiting. Lindfield is very lucky to have such a gem!

I Visited Somers Vintage Tea Rooms today.. what a lovely tea room set in the heart of a beautiful village... totally delightful staff and the food was delicious.. afternoon tea with finger sandwiches, scones and Victoria sponge cake! AMAZING!!!! I would highly recommend if you are out and about in lindfield to pop into this gorgeous little tea room for a bit to eat....

The overall cafe seemed mismatched and dirty. I ordered a hot chocolate and it was very weak so they maybe stingy about using chocolate powder. I also ordered a bacon sandwich; it arrived on some average bought bread and the bacon was fatty and under cooked. The service was very slow and we did not get serviced until after 20 minute of waiting. When it came to paying the lady was very rude (almost aggressive towards us) and it seemed she wanted us out quickly. She was using the tip bowl to give us change which gave a very unprofessional look. I would highly recommend any other cafe in lindfield, and i will not be going to this cafe again!

I arranged to meet a friend here for a chat.

My wife and I are weekly visitors to this lovely tea shop with its friendly staff. The food is all home made and the coffee is the best for miles around. We held a private function there for my 75th birthday, a super special high tea. Madi and Leslie could not have been more helpful in fulfilling all my culinary hopes. It was a delightful occasion and our guests still talk about it and want me to hold another one there soon!

We came here for a spot of lunch after going to Ardingly for the crafts for Christmas show. This is a very very beautiful village with some very sweet little shops. The tea room was pleasant and a reasonable menu, unfortunately, we were unable to have any bacon or sausages because if it all sold out. In the end I settled for a jacket potato and my husband for ham salad sandwich both of which were very nice. We did not isample the cakes as we are quite full up but we are informed by a local shopkeeper but they are delicious.

Popped in for lunch with my husband and daughter. Such a lovely tea room with friendly and attentative service. Lunch was delicious and served quickly. A great choice of cakes but the brownie was to die for! We will definitely return and would recommend a visit.

Visited with a toddler. She was given colouring pencils and a copy of an artists outine of the actual tea room itself. Such a great touch. We had scones and a brownie. Both fresh and delicious. Lady who runs the tea room is welcoming. We will be back. Babychino was the perfect temperature and was free.

Well they had a good selection of cakes but if you expecting a friendly efficient warm atmosphere then you might find it lacking. We went on a Friday afternoon as the coffee shop around the corner which was busy and had a good feel to it had sold out of most of its cakes.

We (a three) were riding London to Brighton on our bikes the day before the BHF organised run. We found the hills before Lindfield tough going and needed to cram some cals in before the beastly Ditchling Beacon. We found Somers as we rode in to town. Delightful, quaint oh-so-english little tea room offering up a range of teas and treats. Saddle-sore and hoggish we found sanctuary at Somers and ordered two teas and a coke; one Victoria Sponge; one Cherry cake and a honeycomb ice cream.

Warm friendly welcome every time- great selection of snacks, breakfasts and lunches....... and the scones and cakes are all home made and off the chart! Poached eggs on toast cooked to perfection every time. Great to have tea rooms of this standard in our village.

Very nice little place for a cup of tea on a rainy day. The Bacon/Brie/Cranberries sandwich is delicious !

We came here for lunch, as we wanted a light meal. It’s a pretty tea room on the high street. I had tuna jacket potato and a pot of tea and my husband had a cheese and ham sandwich and a ginger beer. It was very nice, with friendly service. It was quite busy in there, and I can see why. I would return.

Nice cosy place, friendly people and delicious home made food. Easy parking facilities and beautiful area.

This is a lovely old fashioned team room with lovely friendly staff and lots of home made cakes and pastries, prices are very reasonable and menu is good, it can get very busy during mornings and sometimes little room. Well worth a visit

Good selection of food and friendly service. Very nice home made cakes. A bit of a step up to the front entrance so probably not good for wheelchairs.

We held my daughter's 2nd birthday party here on Sunday and it was brilliant, thank you so much to Maddy and Lesley! They closed early so that we could have the tea rooms to ourselves from 2 to 4 pm and served us teas, coffees, juice and an amazing selection of cakes. Including a whole chocolate cake which was personalised for my daughter. Everyone commented on how delicious the cakes were and how lovely the tea room is. Maddy was so helpful and accommodating throughout and I would thoroughly recommend it for any special occasions! thank you again!

Was in early morning and were promptly served with some coffees as we were looking for a quick drink. Stayed a little longer than planned as it was cosy and even with only a couple of single tables in also it was a lovely atmosphere. Looks like it will be lovely in all seasons.

We popped in here for a late afternoon cuppa, having heard of its five-star status. Parking on the street was easy (right outside!), but at other times it may not be so. We chose a cream tea plus an extra drink, because we can never get through two scones each, and we were gladly given two plates, knives etc. The scones were lovely, and the china teapot gave two good cups. We sat in the window, which was very pleasant, but anywhere in this cafe would be good, I am sure. China cups and plates made it all very genteel. As for prices: not the cheapest, but better 'value' than cafes in NT Houses, or RHS properties.

Only tried this because the Bent Arms was full, Glad we did, a lovely find and will definitely be back! Only had a Brie and Bacon toastie but it was delicious, very generous with the Bacon, well melted cheese and a good balance of cranberry sauce!

A lovely place for a tea and scone. Pretty little place in a lovely quaint village and very reasonably priced.

Lovely little tea room! Staff very friendly and welcoming, scones amazing and very cute little tea pots and cups! Nice relaxing atmosphere, great coffee and tea, will definitely return.

I phoned the tea rooms before visiting, to see if we needed to book tea for 3 people. No need I was told

The charming village of Lindfield has so many quirky little boutiques and trinket stores to wander around that it needs its share of refreshment venues. Somers is one of these. It is a quaint little tea shop that serves tea, scones, cakes and some light meals. Tasty food and a well-kept, clean establishment. Pleasant setting with local art for sale.

Visited Somers tea rooms in Lindfield today. Really happy after my last visit, some 25 years ago, to see it is still a quaint little tea room. Lunch and tea for 2 was fabulous. Hope to see you ladies again soon. Thank you. Mr Earl

Delicious food, made with love by Madi & her Mum. Everything I eat here is top, and we do come here quite a lot! But I'm mostly gonna rave here about Madi's toasties, oh my, if you like a toastie, here is where to get it, lush!

Varied choice of menu, the food is excellent the staff are lovely and friendly. A good place to spend time watching out of the window.

Delicious coffee (or tea) and cakes are always available at this High Street cafe. Appetising light lunches and breakfasts are also available and the staff are friendly and the ambiance is welcoming with wooden tables and floral cushions.

Came here quite a few times already! Friendly staff, and tasty treats from freshly baked cakes to scones, breakfast and light lunches! Comfortable atmosphere!

My sister-in-law introduced my wife and I to Somers Vintage Tea Rooms within the delightful village of Lindfield. We discovered a very warm and polite welcome and enjoyed our choice of tea to drink. A very pleasant experience .

Called in here on a quiet Bank Holiday Monday when our usual coffee shop was shut and we were delighted to find that we were allowed in with our dogs. The coffee was delicious, the scones were still warm, and the owners were very friendly and helpful. We will return soon to try breakfast or lunch!

Enjoyed afternoon tea here - scones with cream and jam. All homemade and absolutely delicious.

Really lovely friendly tea rooms. My sister and I are rather partial to a cream tea so have plenty of experience and I have to say this was right up there with one of the best we've had, both for taste and quality but especially for the excellent value (cream tea - finger sandwiches, scone and cake - £15 for 2). The owner was very friendly and the decor welcoming. I will definitely return to sample breakfast and lunch.

Excellent service, a very friendly welcome by the lovely owners.Delicious homemade cakes. Well worth a visit, will be returning very soon.

Warm and cosy. Good coffee! the best hot chocolate, amazing home made cakes and the most delicious soups. The staff are so nice and if they can they will make it. Love it. I highly recommend this Mother and Daughter run Tea room.

Recently discovered Somers Vintage Tea Rooms in Lindfield. Absolutely worth a visit. Wonderful homemade food, cooked by a mother and daughter team who make you feel so welcome. Real bonus is that they cater for those who are gluten free.
