This is a lovely little tea room, definitely worth the visit. Quaint cups and saucers! Food delicious, generous portions - I had the bacon bap, it would have been enough for 2! Staff very friendly and service great. They accept cards but prefer cash if possible.

This place is 'twee'. But why plastic tablecloths or plastic flowers in spring! ? Service is overly-informal. Very quiet The teacakes were rather dry; the coffees adequate. Not a place you'd just happen upon: its not on the main street nor signed from it.

Lovely little tea room in the centre of Swadlincote. Very happy to find they did gluten free options including cakes and crumpets and had a separate toaster for gluten free crumpets etc so suitable for coeliacs. Food was delicious and our waitress was very helpful and friendly. There was a group enjoying and Afternoon Tea which looked delicious. Would definitely recommend a visit.

I took my Mum here to celebrate her birthday with my family. We had an afternoon tea which was delicious! The perfect little place to relax and chat with family. Their friendly staff made it an even more enjoyable experience with their attentiveness. I have even been back on my own for tea and cake which I’ve never done anywhere else before. Such a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere . I will be taking my little girl next.

Popped in for a quick bit of lunch and drink, we had the egg mayo sandwich which was packed from front to back, seasoned well and bread was lovely and soft. Side salad was lovely and fresh. We also had the hunters chicken panini which was very nice, they were also very accommodating as we asked for no cheese. When it came you couldn’t possibly fit any more chicken in there, and it was cooked well. Drinks were standard bottled drinks, staff were very friendly and it was clean. We weren’t intending to stay for cake as well, however it did look extremely nice so we had the lemon cake and passion fruit cake, the staff did tell us if we couldn’t eat it all they’d give us a box to take away. Prices where great and we’d definitely go again.

Me and 11 of my friends visited the Bluebell Tearoom this afternoon, Christine and her team went above and beyond for us! We had various dietary requirements and she catered for us all perfectly. The gluten free scones had a particular rave review from the 3 friends who had them. The food was delicious, we all had a crema tea for 1 which had sandwiches and scones. We were given as much tea and coffee and the sandwiches were tasty and the scones light and fluffy. We even got extra jam and cream! Thankyou to the Bluebell team for a fantastic time, I look forward to coming again.

I decided to stop by this cute lil place for lunch after hearing about it on social media,and I was so pleased with my experience. Places like the Bluebell Tearoom are so hard to find nowadays.It reminded me of those little family run cafes I used to visit with my dad when I was younger and it really made me feel like a kid again.All home made food,plastic table matts and cute little decorations - the kind of place that makes you feel right at home.And it was all accompanied with the friendliest service i've experienced in a long time. The staff in here are so lovely,the type you could start a great conversation with and they're so attentive to you while you eat.The food was lovely and fresh and the cakes looked beautiful,I do wish i'd had one! I'd also recommend ordering a milkshake - they're delicious! Thankyou so much for my meal ladies,i'll definetly be coming back soon! I hope more people catch wind of this fine little eshablishment💕🍰💐🫖🧁

Fantastic little tea room! We had come over from Shropshire earlier this week to see my father in law. I’d read good reviews about the tea room as we’d been looking for somewhere we could take him to get him out of the house. We had excellent service, both friendly and efficient. We each had a breakfast cob which was generously filled and very fresh and great value. My husband and I had a pot of tea from which we had numerous cups. My father in law had his first ever Latte! All in all really excellent and I’m sure we will come again

Myself and a friend visited today for the festive afternoon tea. The tearoom is very pretty and welcoming, not too many tables and well spaced out. The staff are very friendly and make you feel at home. Our afternoon tea was lovely. 4 beautiful finger sandwiches and 1 smoked salmon and cream cheese on a half cob. Pork pie, sausage, sausage roll and of course some lovely little cakes and a delicate trifle. My friend is a vegetarian and they catered her tea to suit her needs. Really happy with our experience today, would highly recommend this place 😊

If I could give more than 5 star rating then I would. I ordered vintage afternoon tea as a birthday surprise for my friend. She has to self isolate as her husband is in the top 3% of vulnerable people I spoke to Christine from the tea room via Facebook messenger and she could not have been more helpful. The food was delivered as arranged,even though it was on a Sunday , with the added touch of china plates, t pot and cake stand.The vintage tea consisted of three different variety of sandwiches, scones jam and cream, carrot cake, lemon muffins, trifle savouries,and even strawberries dipped in chocolate. Christine has even arranged to collect the China later this week.My friend was amazed by the freshness and quantity of the food, so much so that some had to be left to revisit the next day.The only downside was I never got to try any!I hope that the tea room is up and running again soon and will definitely be popping in when we are able.Thank you very much

After hearing so many positive reports about The Bluebell Tea Room I've been meaning to visit here for a while now but just never managed to find the time......However, last Saturday I had arranged lunch out with 'the girl's so at last the long awaited visit was possible. We didn't book in advance but luckily for us there was a table available. The main reason I'd wanted to visit was for CAKE but we firstly indulged in lunch. One friend had the Jacket Potato and myself and our other friend had a BBQ Chicken Melt from the specials board...(my mouth is watering just thinking about it). The portions were very generous without being over facing and every mouthful was delicious!! We all thoroughly enjoyed how fresh and well presented each dish was. Next we ordered tea and cake!!! Ohhhhhh!!!! The ladies (proprietors) make all of the sweet treats themselves the were out of this world... my lemon cake was light as a feather, the slice was very generous but not too much, my friends had coffee and walnut cake and caramel cheese cake...all absolutely divine!!! We finished the lot then all ordered slices to take out for our other halves. My hubby isn't really a cake person but he thoroughly enjoyed his slice of lemon cake.We enjoyed our visit so much that I returned a few days later with my Daughter, Grandson, Nephews and Dad for tea and cake, there was loads of choices and all were delicious.We were made very welcome on both occasions and the proprietor engaged in conversation with us both times. The place is spotlessly clean, lovely and warm and the team are very friendly. I'd 100% recommend this place. There's free parking nearby which is next to the bus stops so no excuse not to go.

Thought we would come and try out my local new tearoom for a light brunch. Beautifully clean and fresh, very friendly welcome and amazing food. Had a lovely toastie and took a slice of delicious homemade cake away with us. Will definitely be returning!

Wow! This was a real find. We stopped off late in the day driving around the area and found this just off the main street. Tremendous value and very nice food (especially coffee and walnut cake). Staff were delightful.

A gorgeous friendly little tearoom run by Christine and Hazel. They offer an excellent choice of home made food and cakes to a very high standard, but very affordable price. Very highly recommended place to go and have a cuppa with your best mate or just watch the world go by on your own, you'll always receive a warm welcome from Christine and Hazel.

It is still a little cramped in here. But it is still very popular. It is still very traditional and that is good to see. These is still a good selection of home made cakes. As to be expected there are a few teething problems and delays with service. But I am sure these will soon sort themselves out. The staff are very kind. Parking in Swad is free for 3 hours at least.

Visited this morning for breakfast. Lovely friendly & warm welcome from the 2 sisters who own the tea rooms. Had 2 breakfast cobs, tea & a latte. Very efficient service, food was hot & well cooked. Excellent value for money - will definitely return. A real little gem in Swadlincote.

Wow, what a turnaround under the new owners. The place feels a lot more light and airy and a lot less fussy. Table service is a nice touch. We were made very welcome and were well looked after throughout our stay.

We are local to the deli and tend to get baked potatoes and cold meat. The service is always excellent. We often get baked potatoes which are always fantastic and extremely good value. We have also ordered online and this has always arrived promptly and still warm. Will definitely keep using.

Popped in here for a morning coffee and had one of the newly baked fresh scones with strawberry jam and cream served on lovely vintage china. All very cute and with a lovely warm atmosphere. Log burner crackling away. ❤️ there’s a small vintage gift shop attached. Only open on a Saturday.
