Sugar Plum Tearoom in Denbighshire

First time visiting and we had a fantastic afternoon tea - absolutely delicious! The service was absolutely excellent and the staff were brilliant with catering for children. Nothing was too much trouble! We were so impressed with our experience and will be back. I didn’t get her name unfortunately, but the blonde waitress who served us the most was absolutely lovely and we can’t thank her enough for making us feel so welcome and looking after us. Thank you!!

A great pit stop on our cycle ride around the Clwydian Hills with great staff and food. The 3 of us had a mixture of salad and fast breads - I can honestly say the Caesar salad with extra warm tomatoes was the best I have had in the UK Falafel salad was gorgeous tasting too and all presented with staff with a smile on their face A definite must visit place as the lunchtime food and choices were excellent

We were a partyof six friends having the Afternoon Tea it was delicious and plenty of choice on it .Best Afternoon Tea we've had and excellent service thank you 😊

Called here today with friends were looking forward to it, but sadly it was disappointing. Won't be going again. On a positive the staff were friendly and efficient.

What a delightful place to visit and an absolutely brilliant afternoon tea. Staff very attentive and food superb. Nothing was any trouble and it was busy as well. Dog friendly, which is always a plus as these are part of the family. Will definitely be back in the not too distant future. To be honest has to be one of the best afternoon teas I've ever had.

Expensive for what you get. Undercooked sausages and bacon when asked for crispy 2 slices of bacon in sandwich Poor childs menu

Birthday Afternoon Tea It certainly didn't disappoint -Excellent experience from start to finish there was a lush selection of finger sandwiches, quiche home made sausage rolls, cream cakes, scones all freshly baked quirky setting staff were friendly lovely atmosphere beautiful tea room tucked away in the beautiful Clwydian Range - stunning views well worth a visit We took some cakes home as we couldn't finish Diolch yn fawr iawn xx

Lovely little place and very popular . Staff were friendly and the food was lovely Only thing is I would advise on would be the toilet . Not that clean . Could do with a thorough clean behind sink and skirting boards and a new lick of paint and skirting boards coming away from wall .

My welsch rarebit was lovely with the added bonus of bacon and a poached egg. My wife's veggie breakfast was very tasty. The coffee was excellent.

Fabulous afternoon tea in a great venue with views of the Clwydian range. Plenty of choice of sandwiches and cakes, warm quiche , sausage rolls & cheese scones were accompanied by tasty chutney. Cakes,brownies and jam/cream scones all proved too much for one sitting so we had the leftovers boxed to eat at home later. The staff as always are friendly and attentative, the main menu is always packed with locally sourced produce with their homemade cakes some if the best in the area. Well worth a visit.

We had the afternoon tea which was lovely - variety of savoury and sweet foods on the plate and good value for money at £20 per person and unlimited tea and coffee. The other food served to customers looked delicious and freshly cooked. Definitely recommend you visit. There's also a small area selling individual items/gifts.

Usually pleased with the experience at Sugar Plum Tea Rooms. Have been coming here since it first opened many years ago. Not quite up to their usual standards this morning, unfortunately. My chair hadn’t been wiped after the previous client and the staff member whom I mentioned it to didn’t seem particularly bothered. When I asked her to get a cloth to clean it after she’d picked up the “residue chip” I felt quite uncomfortable with her attitude. Top of chair was also sticky. I didn’t ask her to come back again to deal with that. My husband had a sausage toastie. Not their usual standard of presentation, just cut in half with no finesse whatsoever. Might as well have gone to a roadside cafe and paid far less. However, the coffee is always good. Please retain the standards we are used to at such a lovely venue.

Went to this quaint tearoom as part of a small family get together. What can I say but I found a secret treasure of a place with wonderful food and service. Great choices serving with fresh salads. Lovely atmosphere throughout.The place was full with a selection of age groups which was nice too. Staff were so accommodating too ,every one happy and welcoming. This is a place I must return to. Well done to everyone who works there .

At £20 per head this must be the most excellent tea in the country. So often afternoon tea majors on the sweet over the savoury but here, as well as three different types of finger sandwiches there is a warm quiche, warm sausage roll and warm savoury scones with butter and pickle. Then come the sweets - scones with jam and lashings of cream, meringues with cream and strawberries, lemon cake and chocolate brownies. Everything is homemade and obviously so. A huge selection of teas and coffees with unlimited replacements. We had to bring home the brownies as we were beaten. Altogether recommended 100% and I will visit again. NB - you need to book ahead.

Really saddens me to be writing this, this has been one of my favourite places for over 10 years but this is the second visit in a couple of months where the food has been terrible, and today I don’t feel the staff were overly friendly either. Visited for a birthday treat with friends, had to ask to be served, then the waitress appeared a little miserable. Food came out and I’d ordered a Grilled Halloumi salad, at £10.70 I expected a nice full salad, what I was actually presented with was a small amount of chopped bits at the bottom of a bowl, no eggs as stated and quite frankly no where near enough salad for £10.70! I sent it back for the eggs only for it to then be brought back out with avocado instead and told they had no eggs. I do not like avocado so at this point I sent it back and didn’t eat anything. The member of staff (sue) was apologetic and offered me chips, but I’m currently trying to make better food choices and was looking forward to a nice salad. As this is the second bad visit recently I am afraid I won’t be back. Such a shame as it’s a beautiful place but has really gone downhill recently.

Fantastic afternoon tea provided by this Gem of a cafe , super service ,amazing selection of sweet and savory items ,as much tea or other drinks as we could manage. We were even able to bring what we couldn’t eat home, really happy to recommend this cafe. Very good value for money.Thanks so much for a lovely afternoon.

We visited for breakfast after finding this place on google. The location is just lovely. Quirky little cottage with and indoor area and grassed area outdoors with picnic tables and umbrellas. Staff where absolutely lovely and friendly. They actually showed interest in their customers of where they come from. We visited when it was very quite early morning therefore the food and drinks came out fast and hot and we could not fault it. On the second occasion when we visited they where really busy and the food level dropped to average with some items cold on the plate. Overall I would go back again as I said the staff made you feel very very welcome.

My friend treated me to a lovely afternoon today. Wow! Loved the decor and ambience, the food was plentiful and tasty. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Looked at their menu and there is amazing choice and generous portions. Really enjoyed it here and will definitely go back

Highly recommended to us but maybe we had too high expectations. Lunch very average and a bit over done. Scone hard as a rock cake. Personal taste but struggled to cut in to it. Cakes fine enough but just that. No Bette or worse than many others. Looked impressive but tasted average. Service was friendly.

Had an amazing afternoon tea today, lots to eat and drink, and plenty to take home for later! Staff are very friendly and the service was excellent. Definitely recommend a visit - we will go back again. The home made cakes in the display cabinet look fantastic 👌. Outside seating available if the weather is good, and a very picturesque view. All in all a 5* experience, thank you!

This is a hidden gem of a place , breakfast was absolutely amazing cooked to perfection fantastic quality. Washed down with a really decent brew served in bone China, atmosphere and the staff were very welcoming and helpful , and all with an awesome view of the stunning countryside 5* + , Thank you . P.S the freshly baked cakes looked phenomenal 😋

Heard good things but unfortunately we didn't rate it on our visit today. Ordered the last lemon scone in the display cabinet it came warm on the outside cold in the middle like it had been microwaved... very dry, almost stale, couldn't eat it. They agreed to take it off the bill. There wasn't much choice on cakes in the cabinet today. The pancakes looked amazing but we didn't see them on the menu. Ended up just having a pot of tea. Didn't end up getting our water we asked for and had to ask twice for the cream for the scone. Maybe just a bad day. But unfortunately we won't be returning because of that. Felt like we got challenged a little bit on the way out by a lady staff member over the scone. Not for us.

We went for afternoon tea. The food, drink and service were all excellent. There is indoor and outdoor seating. They catered well for a vegetarian.

I found this lovely tearoom on the internet, what a find ! I called in with a group of ladies returning home from my daughters hen weekend looking for coffee and a sugar fix ! The cafe is full of crafts and lovely food and cakes. The staff were so friendly and helpful…the Bakewell tart to die for and loved the elephant wallpaper in the toilet 😁I would definitely recommend this lovely place for a stop off. Also had parking

been here many times before and its always a lovely. our meal was fab and the cake choice was overwhelming! highly recommend!!

Out walking in the area around Rhewl, having parked in the little carpark there, I googled somwhere to have lunch. We turned up at The Sugar Plum Tearooms. Of course it was very busy and we hadn’t booked. We told them we would be quick and they shuffled sittings around to accommodate us. Which they didn’t have to 🥰 They were brilliant doing this for us and we told them How much we appreciated it. So glad they did….. all the staff were so lovely. But Sue made our visit very comfortable and enjoyable and also managed to move us to a table that had become available. I was fascinated by the wonderful decor and the food was delicious. We both had the classic Welsh rarebit, the best I’ve ever tasted, even the salad was very tasty. So looking forward to returning but will book in future.

I've heard rave reviews from family and friend's about the Sugar Plum for quite some time and I'm surprised I've not visited before now. We booked both afternoon tea and the normal menu for a Saturday mother's day treat for my mum, ex wife (I know!) and our youngest to avoid the madding Sunday crowd. The experience was excellent from start to end. We arrived a little early because of light traffic so had a browse around and I noticed a lot of happy diners and little white boxes leaving. We were to find out why later. The food was excellent and plenty of it. The afternoon tea for £20 I can say without doubt is excellent value. One of the best I've experienced and the best value I've had. But the star of the afternoon was our waitress (sorry I've forgotten your name). She was superb. Her interaction with Alexander and Agnes was brilliant as were also the other staff. It was an absolute joy and so lovely to experience. Nothing was any trouble. 5 stars plus plus. As for the little white boxes. There is so much choice you can't eat it all but you can take it home to share. We had a wonderful unhurried afternoon with excellent food and excellent service. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. You are now on the list. We'll be back.

It has always been a pleasure each time we visit the Sugar Plum tea room. We had two different meals off the menu both were really tasty, with a pot of tea for two. The wife selected a huge piece of coffee n walnut cake...

The best Welsh Rarebit for miles around, lovely location with the friendliest staff and very tasty food and plenty of cakes… a hidden gem .. make a visit you will not regret it.

A lovely place to visit and pick up a few gifts too. Of particular note - the delicious cakes and the home made quiche. Often need to book especially at weekend.

My partner and I occasionally visit Sugar Plum tearoom in Rhewl as a treat. They have a lovely menu and the setting is really lovely, especially on the summer and the outdoor seating is great. The speciality milkshakes are to die for!! I haven't yet indulged in the cakes, but they are homemade and friends tell me they are delicious! On our latest visit we had panini which were very nice. The soup of the day was tomato and basil which smelt fantastic. My partner usually gets the Welsh rarebit which is his favourite. I had a chai latte which was very tasty although a little pricey for the size. Aside from that, always a really enjoyable time and staff are very friendly and accommodating. Pleased to see that youngsters were employed to help.

We have visited this cafe many times over the years and always had great food and service ..however following our visit yesterday for afternoon tea I felt I had to write a review due to the difference In the Quality and quantity of food and the waitress service . What has happened ???!!! We booked a table for 2 pm and we’re quickly shown to our table informing them on our arrival that we had booked for afternoon tea .. now the cafe was admittedly busy and the staff were all buzzing around but we noted that they all seemed very young and inexperienced and appeared apprehensive when approaching the public .. there didn’t seem to be a senior member of the team working who looked as if they were guiding them .. maybe they were all new starters ?? Not great management on a busy weekend !We waited 15 minutes for a waitress to arrive to take our drinks order and then a further 10 for it to arrive bearing in mind it as only tea for four and nothing complicated .. however the food didn’t arrive until 2.50 !!!! By which time we had finished the tea .. we were offered further refreshment and an apology was offered for the delay in the food however the presentation of the afternoon tea lacked finesse and just looked like it had been quickly chucked on the plate .. there was no choice of sandwiches .. it was 4 fingers of egg and cheese and chutney the quiche was squashed under the cheese scone with a few wilted leaves of lettuce thrown on for presentation . The cakes seemed smaller and ‘tired ‘ and consisted of one little round Victoria sponge , one meringue , one triangle of millionaire shortbread and and two scones and cream which considering we were paying £16 a head didn’t seem a lot for two people.Therefore we left the sugar plumb tea room feeling ‘disappointed ‘ on this occasion...were not sure what’s changed but something needs to be addressed to restore this little gem back to its former glory .

Lovely light lunches with avocado and also Welsh rarebit We didn’t have the afternoon tea but they looked amazing. Staff were very helpful.

The staff in this lovely cafe make it. Everything else is great too but the welcome is just inspiring

Have been here many times before and always been very good service with tasty , delicious food. But today sadly was let down by Very slow service and burnt food. We waited for 45 mins for our food to arrive and when it did the Panini was burnt , too hard to bite into, also in that time we had not received our drinks either, even though we reminded them . By this time we were very hungry and ended up going somewhere else.Hoping this is just a bad day and standards improve again.

Lovely quirky surroundings with friendly staff. Welsh afternoon tea was delicious! Would highly recommend this tea room off the beaten track & lovely views thrown in!

After perusing the antique furniture etc. We settled into seats for an early brunch and I'm glad we did! My first time having Welsh rarebit (the Spanish option) was delish! D had the halloumi, A also had the rarebit while G had the black pudding. All were spot on! My Spanish rarebit added chorizo to the recipe, G's black pudding with poached eggs almost induced food-envy! Service was very quick and always with a smile. Thoroughly recommend!

Retro indeed. What a great place to visit, wonderful. Great Menu of food and drinks. Food is scrumptious in particular the array of Cakes available. The Staff are amazing, so personable in being chatty, smiley, attentive from the Management to the School lads n lasses working on their weekends n holidays. Whilst it is a bit pricey, you pay for what you get, quality food, fantastic ambience, fun and welcoming, dwy ieithog too and totally Retro, even down to the furniture, though comfortable may not be the word for the chairs as fun as they are (cushions are provided mind ), maybe something that can be looked at. Overall a great place to experience and one you'll return to for a fun time, chat with all and fulfilling your hunger and thirst. Keeping my loyalty card for more stamps for sure.

Sugar plum is down the road from my house. It’s my favourite place to take visiting friends. But the service is consistently awful there in, the most basic way.

We went here for a family afternoon, pre booked. Greeting on arrival, short and rude. When we asked for water, not very forth coming, twenty minutes to be asked for drinks, numerous waitresses attending to tables. When we ordered, no cutlery arrived. My Daughter went up to get sweetener, despite the fact she had asked, 40 minute wait for food and still no cutlery, then no chutney, which was stated to be with the Panini, no apology when waitress took the two meals away. They just placed them on the side and we waited ten minutes for them just to place a tiny pot of chutney to side of plate and when they brought them the cheese and ham had gone cold. We ate as we were in company and hungry. Chips that were ordered also didn’t arrive so my daughter had to ask for them. After recommending to friends, this visit was an embarrassment. Would not travel there again and it ruined our family meal.

Love this place. New menu and some old favourites on there. Cakes to die for. Always a welcome. If you're learning Welsh it's a good place to try it out. Welsh and English are spoken but not by all staff. Only downside are the small school or chapel chairs which are very low but that discomfort is forgotten when you're lost in s cloud of light fluffy sponge, fresh cream, berries and tiny meringue.

So cute here, I love everything about it. Staff, food, milkshakes - everything! Lovely place to eat.

This is a lovely little place to come for a paned(cuppa), and a cake, or even a light lunch. I prefer ,on a sunny place to take my dog in to the little garden, superb.The only downside maybe, is that the choice of food for lunch is limited, but tasty.Staff are very good and friendly,always accomadating-will go again!!

Lovely little find. The milkshakes from here are fab! Theres a nice outdoor area to sit out in which was lovely. I'd recommend you book a table as it can get very busy. If you're in this area it's worth a visit!

Having been here once before with my grandparents, I was excited to visit again and drive over 30 minutes, this place is such a hidden gem and all the vintage decor is just amazing too look at. I will definitely be visiting again as the Victoria sponge was AMAZING!

Called in after a friend recommended it and we were delighted by the whole place and the friendly staff.

You step back in time when you enter the tearoom. The menu offered reasonably priced food and drinks. The food was of excellent standard and the tea was perfect. The cakes were to die for. Nestled in a semi rural area, this is a real gem in the Denbighshire countryside

Great place to eat and shop for something special with lovely vintage items. The food is all home made and amazing

Having heard about this place we finally decided to visit and were not disappointed.........service was excellent and the food was fantastic. We had a leek and potato soup which was by far the best soup we’d ever tasted and we had a Spanish rarebit which was equally as tasty.

We love visiting here for a look around the shop and a bite to eat. Occasionally the food can be a bit hit and miss unfortunately and not much choice of savoury options in my opinion but in general what they do is good. Cakes and other treats are always good but sometimes only 1 or 2 nut free options. The milkshakes are awesome.

Well I am really sad to write this as always had lovely meals here however I am really disappointed with today’s meal and as so much was wrong felt I needed to write a review.

Booked for a group of 8 for a friends baby shower. Booked for 2pm specifying that we all wanted afternoon tea. We were offered tea or coffee very soon after arriving but the service for food was very slow. The afternoon tea didnt arrive until 3.15. Very dissapointed in the wait as we then had 2 ask for more tea + coffee as ours was all used way before the afternoon tea arrived. Seeing as id booked specifically for afternoon tea i expected it too be ready for when we arrived.

Attended a friend’s baby shower. Had been booked for afternoon tea some weeks ago. Arrived at 2pm, placed our order but were very disappointed not to have received our sandwiches and cakes until 3.15! The cafe was not particularly busy and we noted a total of 7 waiting on and kitchen staff present so the delay was inexcusable. The food was excellent (when it finally arrived). We then had to search for an available waitress to order more tea and coffee. I opted for a strawberry milk shake at that time but cancelled the order at 4.30pm when it still hadn’t arrived. We had paid a £45.00 deposit for the afternoon tea but found out after settling with credit card that this hadn't been deducted from the final bill! A refund was given after the error was pointed out to them. Its such a shame! Wonderful food and fabulous location and ambience. If only they could find better leadership and organise staff to improve the service and experience!!

Visited today. Ordered meal and drinks. Informed may food may take a while but we did not think it would take as long as it did.After a little while we asked if we could have our drinks. After 45 minutes we asked how long our food would be. The waitress we asked needs to go on a customer service course for sure. We were told they were very busy and food would come soon.no apology at any time.Food was nice enough but our drinks had long gone by the time they had arrived

I have now been here three times, and have not been disappointed on any visit. It is very clear that it is worth booking, even if you are just popping in for morning coffee. On one occasion we had afternoon tea and needed one to be gluten free. This was no bother at all and the selection was fab. Love the tea, love the cakes, love the setting- what more would you need!? :)

Visited with my mum and enjoyed classic welsh rarebit which was delicious - superb. The desserts looked amazing and we were not disappointed with the chocolate cake and victoria sponge. Friendly staff but can get busy so I would advise that you book and be prepared to wait a little to be served but believe me, its worth it! We weren't in a rush so it was great to take the time and enjoy the décor. Will be making a return visit to enjoy an afternoon tea! A little gem set in beautiful countryside.

Come here regularly as they do gluten free food.
