The Beehive in Colchester

Afternoon Tea Advised of severe nut allergy at point of booking. Served coffee and walnut cake !!! Waiter took it away and said its only touching a couple of other slices. Brought back 2 plates, one with the coffee & walnut cake and another without and proceeded to place both back on the table ! Severe nut allergy means severe nut allergy !!! Cakes were shop bought and not fresh, one small scone each, brown bread sandwiches stale. The pot of tea was lovely and the highlight

Lovely staff, very polite and helpful, but wrong meal arrived, my husband had finished his by the time the correct meal arrived. The hot meal was served on a cold plate and the food was not thoroughly heated. Not an enjoyable meal or experience. We were offered 1 x complimentary drink to compensate. :(

he sido regularmente usando este restaurante / cafetería durante muchos años y nunca hemos tenido ningún problema con ello. Hay una gran variedad de tamaños de mesa, así que si estás cenar solos o con amigos usualmente hay un sitio apropiado para sentarse. Como es un internet café hay obviamente ordenadores junto a una pared para aquellos que desean navegar por la red.

the food was absolutely gorgeous, came out rather quickly and looked and tasted fab! our waiter rishi was just wonderful also!

Great food, however I’ve been here a few times now and the staff are so rude in comparison to the staff in the store. Such a shame because the food is really good especially the kids summer food deal.
