Tabs Tearoom & Restaurant in Malvern Hills

Absolutely lovely place to eat breakfast, 1 full English & 1 vegetarian. Enthusiastic staff, excellent quality food, great value for money (£8.50 each whereas other places were £15), incredible portion size, coffee was amazing and hot, thoroughly enjoyed my glass of Vimto, random but true. 100% recommend. We will definitely be back!

We had two wonderful visits to Tabs - one for coffee and cake and the other for breakfast. The service was so friendly and welcoming each time, food is delicious and very reasonable, and we really enjoyed sitting outside with our two pooches. Would thoroughly recommend!

Well we thought we’d visit passing through and stop for a brunch. What a gem we found down a side street. Sat outside with our dog and popped in to order a couple of sausage sandwiches and a bacon butty as you do but wasn’t expecting what came out.. More than expected and kept the kids quiet for a few hours after. Thick proper bread,nice sausages load of trimmings. Drinks lovely. Check out the picture and you’ll see what you get. Hopefully you’re hungry enough to eat it all. Well worth popping in if in town. Wel recommended.

We popped in for lunch on our way to South Wales, and it was the right decision. It's great to see a tearoom like this run by such a young team of women who had everything sorted. The food and drink were excellent, and the ambience was relaxed and friendly. Definitely recommended.

Lovely little cafe with friendly, helpful staff. It's always reassuring when you have a food allergy and the staff know what they are talking about. Great gluten-free options.

First visit since before lockdown and so pleased this delightful tearoom and cafe survived!Visited for lunch and order taken within a minute or so after finding a table. All food here is cooked to order but was served very quickly, piping hot, plentiful and tasted lovely. We had meat and vegetable pasty and quiche. Sadly, no room left for dessert!Staff are lovely, welcoming and all COVID precautions adhered to. Short term car park 100m away or restricted on street parking. Will be back soon.

Excellent food, had lovely Greek Salad and sandwiches, coffee fab. great value and really pleasant friendly staff. Will definitely return.

As a former resident of the Pembridge Cafe and Tea Rooms, Pembridge, for over 8 years it was with great anticipation that I upped sticks and moved to Tenbury Wells. Moving house was not the issue but finding a cafe in Tenbury which did quality coffee. Just when I gave up the ghost I arrived at, Tabs Tenbury, today (my last Tenbury cafe before deciding whether I needed to move back to Pembridge or not ). At last, a quality coffee and lovely wee cafe where I will now probably reside until I retire. The coffee may not be to the liking of the casual coffee drinker but to us coffee connoisseurs it is pure heaven. It will certainly wake you up! The toasted tea cake was lovely too and both for less than £4! My only conundrum now is "should 'Tabs' have an apostrophe or not and if yes where is it?"

Lovely to be able to enjoy food inside or out. A wonderful choice of food on offer, good variety of teas. Staff are welcoming, chat to you.

The staff were so kind amazing vegetarian breakfast if you visit you will be so happy with great service amazing food and the best cappuccino I’ve ever drank ❤️

Excellent food today, Greek salad and jacket potato. The ladies are lovely and take the time to talk.

Even in these times of having to dine outside we couldn't have been more comfortable. The passageway is glazed and has heating by every table. The menu is staggering and anywhere that sells darjeeling tea for me has to be good. We had omelette and a breakfast. But there was so much more on the menu and looking at the sponge puddings this is a great place for comfort food. Highly recommended.

Went into Tabs tearoom simply because we had parked outside and it was handy. However, we were pleased that we had done so because a very friendly waitress showed us to an outside table and quickly brought excellent coffee. Sitting there we were tempted by the appetizing smell of bacon so my friend succumbed to temptation and had a bacon sandwich on crusty bread. Delicious. In all a good coffee stop.

We'd had a week near Tenbury.The time to,leave had come.So to cheer ourselves, on our way home,we thought we'd fill our tum.The week had been a hot one,but now the rain poured down.It was really great to find this place on the main street of the town.Our welcome was a cheery one, one such a dire day,and our cheery lassensured we had a table straight away.Full English breakfasts were our choice,and that's just what we got.Full plates of breakfast goodies,Well cooked, and piping hot.It came with quite a rarity.That rarity? Fried bread,and crispy, crunchy, crusty toastensured we were well fed.The service was exemplary. there's nothing more to say,except that we'll be here again,whenever we're down this way.

good sandwiches to take away - lovely bread and well filled. Had a couple of problems eating in but this is mainly because I forgot to ask if there was palm oil in the pastry which there is - obviously not as home made as it purports to be.

I love this place and always make a point of dropping in when in the area. Excellent coffee and pleasant welcoming staff and swift service.

Visited this lovely cafe Tabs on a Monday , very busy but found a table by entering down the alley . Very welcoming staff , gourgous coffee ( Gingerbread latte ) would recommend . Great food too . All food cooked to order so was fully informed at the outset of the approximate waiting time for our orders to be ready so we were more than happy to wait .when our food arrived it was excellent .I had the deep fried brie wedges and cranberry sauce with granary bread and salad .

usually pop into a place nearby but it was too busy so thought I'd give it a try again. Service is slow, staff not that helpful and very much the feeling of a transport cafe inside. Food was OK but nothing to shout about, wont be visiting again in a hurry

Popped in here for lunch had the most delicious cornish pastie with salad and homemade apple pie with custard very generous portions will definitely be going again

We needed a coffee fix and popped in and had a seat in the alley way so to speak. Colourful table and chairs outside and weather was lovely. Coffee first class plus scrummy shortbread. Other peoples sandwiches etc looked very good.Service excellent quick and smiley !

We were just passing through and wanted a quick snack stop. Glad we settled on this little café where we got a nice welcome and quick service. Plenty of locals eating here and that is always a good sign.The surprise at the end was how little the meal cost, we would have paid a lot more at home! Well worth a visit.

Having seen the reviews we decided we would go here for early lunch. A very nice welcome, followed by a look at the menu. We are not the easiest family to cater for, husband and daughter are dairy intolerant, and I am vegan. Not a problem here! Our host duly went to check the ingredients of the bread on the breakfasts, no dairy found. Husband and daughter had full English breakfasts, while I had the veggie one substituting the egg for another hash brown. Even though the breakfasts are cooked on the same hotplate, our host said they would clean it down first and cook mine seperately. They did, and it arrived piping hot, on a warmed plate first. The other two soon came out and we were soon making happy eating noises!Husband said the quality of the ingredients of his were very good. My food was delicious, and the portions of all the breakfasts were generous. The food was clearly cooked with care, too. The coffee was superb, much better than a high street chain!We would absolutely visit here again, and with the clean bright decor, happy staff, and delicious food, why go anywhere else?

a nice homely place, courteous friendly staff, and excellent food, I had an omelette with cheese and two extras, mine were ham and mushrooms, also a small salad, with a super dressing, and toast, all extremely enjoyable, my wife had scrambled egg and smoked salmon, again with salad and toast, not expensive, buy quality, will be here again, and highly recommended

Visited tabs tearooms as I was passing just for a pot of tea to warm myself up but ended up being tempted my one of the homemade cakes too ! The sponge cake was delicious the staff were lovely and welcoming and I will be back to try out the great looking lunch selections!

GRRRRRRREAT service very clean,super breakfast best for a long time great sausage everything was exactly to my liking .Very pleasant staff ,good food,clean and tidy surroundings one to try .You wont be disappointed well worth a visit .A LITTLE GEM.

Stopped here for lunch. We sat outside as we had our dog with us. The lady who served us was very helpful and offered us cushions and blankets as it was not the warmest of days to be sitting outside on metal chairs. We both had paninis and they were lovely and good value for money. Just be aware they do not take cards so have some cash with you.

Easy to find on the road through town this tea shop is bright and friendly and serves light lunches, delicious sweets and ice creams all at reasonable prices. The staff are very friendly and helpful and although we only had scones and tea they didn't mind serving us 10 minutes before closing time.

stopped in Tenbury Wells for a break and a coffee. Found TABS and pleased we did as clean and nice surroundings. Coffe was good and reasonably priced

Lovely little tea shop. Service and food very good.It is in the main street so easy to find. The waitress was friendly and helpful.

I've had lunch here a few times, the staff are always polite and the food is lovely, overall a lovely atmosphere and a fair price to pay

Personal amable, buena comida, no tengo quejas. pasteles encantadores y el chocolate caliente siempre es precioso. Sólo he pasado por por ligeras

Hacer un desayuno muy bien, pero por desgracia no disponibles hasta la una y media, encantador y el personal brie frito extremadamente servicial y eficiente, encantadora zona exterior cuando el tiempo lo permite

Soy vecino de Tenbury y regular asistente al restaurante 'Fichas Tearoom y'. Es bendecido con mucho Tenbury de té y café restaurantes tipo y todas son buenas por diferentes razones. Pestañas para mí es mi favorito diner para principios de taza y en mi opinión el mejor bocadillos (no es bueno para mi salud, pero los bocadillos de bacon son absoluta felicidad! ). Este es un lugar muy concurrido y popular, el personal y el dueño son muy divertidos, educado y amable. Como una familia que también he disfrutado de la principal/Menú de almuerzo, que de nuevo para un salón de té es de primera clase tanto de costo y calidad. Sin duda me volvería a recomendaría este gente pequeña joya!

Makes his money from tourists. 5 of us went for lunch today 2 are disabled. They have a kids menu with no note of restriction on age. I requested a kids option for my mom who is 87 with dementia. I explained that she would only eat a smaller amount. He refused and laughed in my face in front of other customers saying "she can leave what she doesn't eat". When I said that we would be paying more he replied "that is why we won't do it". I now know that none of the locals will go there as he does not care about customers or their views. Avoid him.

Been here a few times with family. The food is delicious, friendly staff very welcoming and a lovely place to relax. Twice I've had a takeaway sandwich which is prawn on white bread. It's to die for :D I would recommend for anyone. Will be coming back again even though I live few doors down.

Visited in here with a work colleague for a quick coffee whiling our time before lunching at a local restaurant. Really nice tearoom and quite busy, serving mostly breakfasts when we were there, the food looked tempting and service was exemplary.

Warm welcome, good food with good variety especially breakfasts which are very generous and reasonably priced. They do take-away food too!

Great food. Very cheap (we're from london) but the quality us excellent. Like really good home cooked breakfasts should be but with excellent coffee on the side. Well done!

This is a lovely friendly place to eat. Nice menu with good and varied choice for everyone. Great for meeting up with friends for coffee.

We ende up here after calling into a high street pub at ten to two to be told that they were'nt doing food as it was 2 o'clock.. The food was great and fresh, the place felt very cosy and the service was warm and friendly.

What a beautiful place to eat. Tabs is a beautiful hidden gem in a nice market town.I've been in many a time and it is just divine. The staff are friendly, the food is fabulous and the prices are fantastic. I have been to many places like tabs but none come close to this. Well done tabs. Good for you.

This was a spontaneous visit to Tenbury Wells and so lucky we dropped on this delightful tearoom. Wonderful service, young lady was so attentive and the standard of the food was excellent, cream tea for one of us and a jacket potato for the other. Really good value too, cannot fault it and have already recommended it to a friend.

Tabs is an ideal meeting place for friends. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced. The staff are very friendly.

Excellent Service, excellent price, excellent service. Fantastic little Tea Room. If you do not visit you will regret. Full English is astounding!If you don't go you will always wonder... What u missed.....

When in town for band concerts I always try to get into TABs for a full English breakfast. Very friendly staff and nicely located on the high street just along from the Regal.

We really enjoyed this because although on the outside it looks fairly ordinary, the food is top-notch and NOT chips with everything. Good range of cold lunches and the cakes were wow!

Had lunch in Tabs on Friday18th March. Exactly the right meal after walking on a damp chilly day. Baked potatoes with bacon and cheese. It was hot, tender and very tasty, looked good on the plate with its salad garnish. The coffee at Tabs is particularly good if you like full bodied coffee which I do Great tea room. The cakes looked nice but I was watching calories..

Popped in here with my mum, for a light lunch last summer. We saw cream tea on the menu so opted for that. Beautiful scones and jam, but I have to say please please serve a cream tea with clotted cream not ordinary whipped cream. Other than that, it was a lovely little cafe tucked away. I would definately return.

Had great choice of menu clean tidy staff friendly toilets clean food freshly made would recommend children's menu for under 16's which is good as usually under 12's freshly made pudding and farm made ice cream can't go wrong

Excellent tea and coffee. Food is very good too. The breakfast is highly recommended. Very good value. Friendly staff and excellent service.

Good selection of food both snacks and main meals reasonably priced.Nice friendly staff.Very popular and in a good central position.

They have a good alround menu to cater for most tastes, and are always willing to mix and match to achieve your desired dish.

Nipped in for a cup of tea. Place was full and just managed to get a table which probably speaks for the quality. Pleasant and quick service, reasonable price.

Visited here en route to a stay in Ludlow. It was very popular and with good reason, the food is all cooked to order and very nice indeed. Cheese and ham panini was miles better than I've had anywhere else, proper hand cut thick slices of cheese and ham, served with crispy chips and a good salad. Good tea and coffee, with a bill for two of £14, which is top value for money for food this nice. Look forward to visiting again next time!

Was in the restaurant yesterday to get some sandwiches for me, my sister and mum to take out and eat (my sister and mum were waiting with the dog on the burgage).I normally go to the Mad Hatter tea shop but she was shut, and first went across the road to the bakery, but they had no sandwiches in. Was thinking about where else to go to get decent sandwiches other than the mass produced ones at the Spar and the lady in the bakery suggested I should try Tabs.I then thought of course, totally forgot about Tabs as it doesn't really stand out as a cafe from the high street. I went in and ordered three sandwiches, the staff were so helpful. They first warned me that there was going to be about a 15 minute wait on sandwiches as they were busy, this was fine, as the food looked great anyway and worth the wait (I think it actually took them only about 10 minutes to do the sandwiches anyway). Whilst waiting the staff were very friendly, and I asked them about the bike shop opposite as every time I've been there he's always been shut, except once and I keep meaning to get something from him. The staff were very helpful and supplied me the number for his shop so I can phone him and see when he's going to be open.Once the food was ready it was very nicely wrapped up, complete with serviettes. The food was also really nice, I had a tuna sandwich, my mum had ham and my sister had cheese. The tuna sandwich was well filled, and so was the cheese, my mum loved the ham sandwich as it was proper thick pieces of ham (the dog also enjoyed a few pieces of ham).For dessert I got some shortbread from there. That was quite nice, although I think it was possibly lavender shortbread as it had some kind of taste to it. I'll have to ask next time I'm in there as I've never tasted shortbread like it before, but it seemed to have a taste within the icing sugar. My sister has had lavender shortbread before and said to me it's certainly lavender shortbread.

I ate here for lunch with my wife on Saturday afternoon. The food was fresh, very tasty and there was loads of it! The member of staff that served us (don't know her name but she had big curly hair!) was brilliant! Very polite, professional and really looked after us. Great value for money and a great little tea room - VERY highly recommended!!

Passing through Tenbury we stopped for a late lunch, and found this little cafe. We were met by staff whom were ever so friendly.And they served us with 4 perfect meals. So anyone passing through look for Tabs Tearoom you wont be disappointed

My son and I love going to Tabs.The breakfast is excellent value for money and you get loads of food.Staff are very helpful. Customers are very talkative too.See you all soon.

This is such an amazing little eatery. Food is plentiful, well cooked and cheap. Would certainly recommend for breakfast of lunch - don't take cards!!

Just passing through but took the opportunity to partake of their cream tea. At £3.80 for two sones, cream, jam and pot of tea you would be hard pressed to find better value. The scones - although not huge were lovely, fresh and warm they went down a treat.

Constantly moaning about not being able to fulfil orders, attitude issues from the cook/chef, poor service ... which is a shame, as the food is good hence why I gave a two, otherwise would have been a one. If you want better service, go to Riverside Café, slightly more expensive but an better experience.

With a courtyard And outside seating an great place to stop whilst out cycling. Great selection of food and cakes, good coffee and really good value. Waitress service, with a smile.

One of my regular summer 100 mile routes involves a quick stop here for light refreshment, namely tea and cake. There is parking for bikes to the side of the cafe, but I would suggest that they are locked to the railing, just in case. The cafe is always very clean and your are always greeted with a polite and speedy service. Shame I am 50 miles from home :-(

This is nice friendly cafe. The food is very reasonably priced, good quality and well cooked, I can recommend it

Lovely cafes in this charming small town on the borders of Shropshire. Good range of Cakes and Sandwiches, very pleasant staff and a choice of teas.Handy stop-off, but need to come again and look round more fully (delightful original small Art Deco cinema "The Regal" across the road - worth seeing).

We stopped in this lovely town and had a lovely lunch in this cafe. The sandwiches were delicious with lovely salad garnish on the side. We were made very welcome and we were really pleased we popped in.

Great value slap in the middle of the High St a perfect pit stop in a busy market town in the middle of The Teme Valley

This is a sweet little tea room and the man who runs it is always welcoming and the quality of food consistent. My husband said the cranberry and orange scone he had recently was the best he had ever had - so I am off myself to try one soon! Good choice of food and good service.

We visited Tabs (in the main street in Tenbury Wells) on Saturday 20th December and both chose to have the full English breakfast. We weren't disappointed. The food was prepared quickly, was well presented and good value at £5 per person. All the waitresses had lovely smiles and we were made to feel very welcome. We have eaten here several times before and have always had great food with genuinely friendly service. We will return!

great fast serive, sat outside under a shelter , tea for two very good value for money and very yummy, i ended up taking a scone back home with me. could of shared if known would of been given two but i thought price was for one so can't complain really.

Friendly, and fast service. Food is tasty and well presented. Clean cafe. Prices are very good. Nice for a light lunch or coffee and cake

We chose Tabs today for a lunchtime snack on the suggestion of the lady in the cinema and we were not disappointed! It was very busy but the staff remained friendly and efficient and we really enjoyed our break. certainly worth a return visit.

Service excellent, muffins with cream to die for. Sat outside, lovely!! Staff extremely pleasant, nothing too much trouble. Coffee is good as well and a proper pot of tea.

This is a wonderful gem of a tearoom.food cooked well, excellent value for money and a nice choice, great staff.

Had breakfast here twice when staying at Wooferton Travelodge. Good food and a pretty and friendly waitress ;-). Doesn't open until 9am though. Tenbury is a fascinating little town with some interesting buildings and shops and well worth a visit.

My husband and I visited this little cafe on Tuesday 18th. March. We were in Tenbury around lunchtime and thought it looked quite cosy. The welcome was warm and the service efficient.The snacks on offer were varied and we chose the home made quiche with fries and salad. The quiche was delicious and apparently made by a local farmer's wife. The portions were generous so sadly we couldn't sample the delicious looking home-made cakes. We can both recommend this place.

We met here for a hot choc with friends on Christmas Eve. I don't go to Tenbury Wells much, however this was a lovely cafe! Nice seating area and it all looked clean. We had some young people in our group ( ages 7 & 9) and they were able to do mini hot choc with all the trimmings( cream, marshmallow flake) to suit them! Which was brill. Will definitely call again. The prices for hot food seemed very reasonable too although we didn't have anything to eat, the food looked nice on its way to other tables!

My husband and I ate here after travelling most of the day. It was one of the few places still serving food at 3pm. We both had the full English breakfast as we wanted something substantial. Neither of us were disappointed. The service was friendly and efficient, the surroundings were warm and clean. Tabs is everything I want in a café.

We have eaten at Tabs several times now - which tells a story as we are always happy to return. The service is always friendly and efficient and the surroundings are very pleasant. The menu is a good mix of standard light lunch/simple meals/sandwiches/cakes etc. All the food is to a good standard and the prices are very reasonable. If you are looking for a nice place for a cup of coffee, afternoon tea and cake, jacket potato or well presented ham/quiche/fish & chips style cafe lunch with salad garnish then Tabs is the place in Tenbury Wells. If you are looking for something more substantial or up-market then move on as Tabs is not trying to be anything that it is not!

We've called at Tabs a number of times & always been impressed. On this occasion I had a coronation chicken sandwich which was very well filled, very tasty filling & excellent fresh, tasty, local bread. The sausages were reported as excellent. Pots of tea available & friendly staff. First class!

My husband and I stayed just outside Tenbury Wells this week Monday-Friday. We ate at TABS on Monday and were so pleased with the choice of menu, lovely food and delightful staff that we returned each day for lunch. This establishment is a credit to Tenbury Wells. We shall return whenever we are in the area, and we will not hesitate to recommend to others.

Went here at luchtime and wasn't disappointed. It seemed from the menu as being a fairly run of the mill cafe but it was very good value for money and I got more than I anticipated. I ordered a salad with chicken and cranberry also served with fresh local bread and coleslaw. It was only £5.10 which I thought was really good value as the salad was a very generous portion. The toasted sandwiches were also accompanied by a side salad which was much more than you would normally be served as a side salad.The service was friendly and very prompt, we didn't have to wait before someone came to take our order and the food arrived a few minutes later. The soup of the day was pea and pesto and was around £3.50 and served with local bread.Would suit anyone wanting a light snack or something more substantial and easy on the pocket if you have to feed several people.

Tabs is an excellent tea room with lots of choice and fresh ingredients. The sandwiches are delicious. We often eat in the courtyard with friends when we have dogs with us.

TABS has had a makeover. Its decor is now considerably more pleasing that it had been for some while. I guess this is not only to compete with the eatery that is now situated over the road but it was time for a redecoration.The snack menu was perfectly adequate and sufficed for a quick snack lunch on a Satuday together with some local apple juice.
