The Bow Window Coffee Shop and Cafe in Maidstone

The cafe is super cute and a lovely space to be in, very cosy for the wintery day that was out. Food was nice but nothing particularly special and in my opinion a little overpriced for what it is. Large menu and lots of variety. The cakes looks brilliant so I'd love to go back and try them!

My sister booked here as a surprise for us, as we were heading past Lenham and she found online that they sold breakfast! We’d booked for 9am, which is when it opens, but at 8.50 we were politely welcomed in and sat down in a quaint and comfy room. Service was quick and the lady serving very friendly. The food was tasty too! We hope to bed back to try out their afternoon tea very soon.

Completely gone down hill. Totally chaotic atmosphere with the owner flapping around in the kitchen barking orders at the staff (who, I should add, are incredibly friendly). No welcome when you enter. Was told I’d have to wait 20 minutes for a take away coffee. It’s a shame as used to be such a lovely cafe but it seems they cannot cope under pressure and take it out on their guests. Won’t be returning.

I’ve had 2 not very good occasions where I’ve tried to take my 2 year old daughter here for breakfast and today lunch as we live in the village - I wasn’t going to write a negative review after the last time I tried to visit as I hoped that it was a one off but I tried to get a table again today months later and I was again turned away with rudeness, and met with the same poor customer service. My first visit I wanted to get my daughter some breakfast on our fun girly morning together, having spent days in and out of hospital with her unwell I thought it would be a lovely treat but unfortunately the owner didn’t care for us as customers, I asked if we could get a table for some food and without even a hello, was told they were “too busy and we would be waiting a while” it was very early morning and I couldn’t see a customer in the entire cafe, but I said we were happy to wait, we were then again made to feel an inconvenience and in the way, being told where to sit and then when we sat down told we were blocking the way, we left without ordering anything as it was not a nice vibe at all. Today we popped in and I asked if they were still serving food, to which without a hello again I was told “no we are about to close”, there were still customers seated, and we weren’t offered a table. This was at 2:45pm. I work in hospitality myself so am always shocked when people are rude to customers but two similar experiences from the same lady is not a one off. Such a shame as the cafe looks beautiful from the outside!

The place we recently visited was a cozy little cafe in the heart of the Lenham village. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend %100

Yet another lovely lunch at The Bow Window! O had a Jacket Potato with coronation chicken (my favourite) and my wife had a panini. Both piping hot, fresh and very tasty with a good coffee to go with it. Good service too despite the fact they had issues with the IT systems but this didn’t cause us any problems at all despite the fact this may have made things very stressful it didn’t show on service, timings or quality of food as they were all excellent

A lovely unique place for lunch. Sandwiches were lovely- bread thick & tasty with a generous amount of filling. Lovely cups of tea too.

There is no accounting for taste in my own personal opinion. I had a Panini, it was so hard, absolutely over cooked, it was that hard I could have knocked nails in with it. It had the fattiest bacon I've ever come across. I had five mushrooms, four of them were no bigger than my little finger nail. The knife was as blunt as old Harry, a hack saw would have been more appropriate. I voiced my opinion and I may as well.been talking to a brick wall. Am I ever going to go again? Guess what.

Very impressed, lovely little place, staff are friendly, food is excellent, prices are what you'd expect from a higher end cafe.

What a gem! Despite catering for a large breakfast party which was stretching their catering resources the Staff Team accommodated Fiona and I, supplied tea to keep us going and then magically produced brilliant breakfasts for us both well before the half hour wait we had been advised…. All done with smiles and chat from a lovely Staff Team. Well done to you all and thanks from two very happy Yorkshire Folk.

Great place for breakkie, coffee and or cake. Coffee is particularly good. 100% recommended. Thank you.

Chose the Bow Window for afternoon tea for 3 and I was so glad I had. The food was bountiful, fresh, tasty and well presented. The gluten free version had soft edible bread and delicious cakes which is a rarity and I was made to feel that GF was not an issue. The staff there were friendly, helpful and attentive and made the afternoon very enjoyable. I will definitely return. Thank you for making it a special afternoon.

We had the loveliest lunch here today. The food was lovely, in fact we all agreed it was the best Tuna Melt Panini we’ve had. We had our granddaughter with us and she was very well catered for, they went out of their way to make sure she had what she wanted. It’s such a relaxing setting & the staff are all so friendly and helpful. We will definitely become regulars here Anita.

stopped in for a cooked breakfast and a veggie breakfast. staff very attentive and covid safe. free wifi on site and lovely coffees. There seemed to be a good range of pastries also although we did not try them

Absolutely lovely! First time at The Bow Window and won’t be our last! From the minute we stepped in the door to the minute we left staff were welcoming, attentive and friendly! The cafe was beautiful, very well organised, clean and we felt very safe and comfortable. The food was just delicious, my hubby said it was the best Brie and Bacon sandwich he has ever had and we will be going back again very soon! Can’t recommend enough! Thank you!

We stopped for a full english cooked breakfast after our week of camping in the locality, and I have to say it really hit the spot, I can't think of anything that could have made it better - delish, and just like the one pictured in your website! We were moved to grab a couple of slices of cake as takeaway, and they were pretty decent, too. We shall definitely visit again when we are in the area - thank you!

Really welcoming atmosphere, lovely surroundings and absolutely gorgeous afternoon tea. Delicious and will definitely be back

I've had the best afternoon tea in a long while, everything was fresh and the coffee was exactly to our taste. The service was excellent, very friendly atmosphere. Definetly will recommend this cafe to all.

I hadn't been here before, but friends spoke highly of it. I wasn't disappointed. We shared a couple of rounds of sandwiches, there's a good range to choose from, plenty of filling and beautifully soft bread. We then had a scone each with jam and cream. Nice fresh scones and proper clotted cream. I'll definitely be back and have my eye on the quiche and the cakes next time!

Well-run tea room with many seating options, including garden. We just stopped for coffee, but were greeted and looked after very well.

Friendly welcome, clean and nicely decorated. Afternoon cream tea is well presented and very very nice..We had a large family group with a few children and where catered for with no problems at all. The staff checked on us at regular intervals to see if all was ok or if we wanted more drinks ect. Highly recommended, and will be back to try more, thank you ...

A last stop on our way home. I couldn’t resist the toffee fudge milkshake: delicious! A tempting array of cakes and delicacies, too. After a strenuous walk on the downs, we deserved our tasty treat, sitting on a comfy sofa in a delightful room, served by a smiling waitress. Definitely to be recommended.

We visited twice in one day, the breakfast was delicious my husband had a "doorstop Breakfast sandwich" which was huge. They had no problem with adding an extra T bag to my pot of tea. The staff were all very friendly and helpfull.Our 2nd visit was in the afternoon with family, they remembered us from the morning. Again the staff were very helpful, all the cakes and jam scone were very tatsy.We sat out side in the garden with our puppy in the afternoon, which wasnt any problem. Would recommend for any time of day.

Popped in for tea and scones late afternoon and they were happy to accommodate us. Very nice garden and lovely staff made us feel welcome. Best cheese scone I have eaten in a long time and good strong tea. Food looked delicious

Was staying nearby looking for a cafe to have Wow ,amazing delicious more and more we all agreed that this place is hidden gem Amazing BREAKFAST , MOST FRIENDLY SERVICE SO CLEAN AND SO WARM CANT FIND A FAULT WE CAN GO ON AND ON

Warm welcome on arrival from the proprietors into very pleasant surroundings. Very comfortable and relaxing. Service, food, drinks and dessert were fantastic. Would highly recommend to anyone, certainly an asset to this lovely little village Will definitely return.

We popped in on a rainy afternoon without a booking but were welcomed and accommodated for an excellent afternoon tea - one had a cream team and one had a very light and delicious carrot cake. With the ‘eat out’ discount an absolute bargain. Staff really friendly and a really good atmosphere in a homely cafe.

Visited for afternoon tea today and it was absolutely delicious. A good selection of sandwiches plus a smoked salmon bagel and mini quiche which makes a lovely addition. Very nice scones and a fantastic selection of cakes. The chocolate mousse is to die for! We were so full we had to bring a few things home. The owners and staff are so friendly and attentive, it was a really lovely experience and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Four of us had Sunday Lunch at The Bow Window, Excellent food, pleasant surroundings, outstanding service, Outstanding value. Would definitely recommend and will return soon gets a Five* from us!

Lovely cafè and surroundings. Very friendly staff and great food and milkshakes. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely breakfast at this very nice quaint cafe. We sat in the garden and really enjoyed the ambience and food. Defiantly recommend.

Had an amazing family lunch at the bow window in Lenham, our first visit, really welcoming staff, we sat in the garden, our waitress Ingrid was very attentive, our party had the seafood platters, the ploughmans and quiche, great portions, well presented! Will be back for cake soon.

We visited today for lunch for the first time. I’ve been wanting to try it here as the food always looks great on instagram. I wasn’t disappointed. Really friendly and helpful staff and delicious food and drink. We will certainly return !! Plenty of space so that you don’t feel overwhelmed in the garden as there are limited tables so I’d recommend booking. Thank you bow window !!

Booked a breakfast with 4 friends here, great quality - I had the eggs royale which was lovely! The service was very friendly. We will definitely be back!

I ordered the spicy chicken soup to take away and it was the most delicious soup I have eaten. Spicy, with lots of chicken and lovely noodles. The staff are so friendly and genuinely want to make their customers happy. I just wish I could get the soup recipe, I'd make a fortune!!!!

Great spot to have a meal after completing a walk along the North Downs Way. Service was quick, efficient and warm. Good came in good time and was great! Would recommend if in town. Panini and Toasties were delicious!

Took a friend and my Dog for a late Breakfast.Sat in the Garden as it was a Nice Day.Both really enjoyed it.Lovely Peaceful atmosphere, Good Food and they brought out Water and Treats for the Dog.The staff are all such lovely People. Helpful,Friendly and they Love Dogs.

Ordered afternoon tea from The Bow after seeing all the great comments, and I absolutely agree with all of them! This was so tasty, I will be back for another

Takeaway afternoon tea was delicious. The bow window team were incredibly friendly and helpful and the takeaway tea was beautifully presented. Tasty high quality ham in the ham sandwich, macarons full of flavour with a lovely texture, light sponge and tasty frosting on the red velvet cupcake and carrot cake full of flavour and really light. Looking forward to going back for lunch.

As a local we love the bow window. Fantastic choice of food. Excellent service and always very friendly. We had milkshakes and cakes So happy they are open again 💓 ☺ 💗

We enjoyed their take away sandwiches which proved to be delicious and so well presented it was a shame to consume them. We shall be returning to sample more products

I treated my son and girlfriend a take away afternoon teas as they return to work tomorrow after lockdown so I wanted to spoil them before the returned. Absolutely beautiful couldn’t of wished for more. It was so lovely and fresh!To top it all off the owners were so professional and welcoming and went out their way to provide a lovely treat.

Had a takeaway afternoon tea from The Bow Window and I have to say it was absoultely delicious. The sandwiches were tasty, I especially loved the little bagel. The homemade cakes were amazing, particularly the red velvet cupcake. I recommend it for a picnic in the sun - what a nice treat. See you again soon :-)

Great first experience in the Bow Window Cafe. Super friendly and clean environment. Had the Coronation Chicken Jacket Potato and biscoff milkshake to takeaway. Both amazing. Can’t wait to go back.

Stopped off on my solo ride from London to Broadstairs for a quick hit of caffeine. Delightful little find lovely owners great coffee. Looking forward to visiting with the rest of the peloton in the very near future...those cakes won't eat themselves!

Great quality cafe food, very friendly service! Dogs are welcome so it’s a great pit stop on my walks.

The fabulous bow window is a little gem of a restaurant that does afternoon tea , cakes from your dreams and at one time the best tapas in town .The service is so friendly and welcoming I could just settle down and make camp for the day .

Had a lovely takeaway on Saturday - lovely homemade sandwich and coffee and walnut cupcake - will certainly go again 😊

If you Love Tea rooms & you have never visited The Bow Window then you are missing out, I visited just before lockdown started for Breakfast with my Parents, we were greeted with a warm welcome and seated in the most beautiful room overlooking the garden, our waiter came to take our order and answered every question I asked him about the menu (I can be quite fussy!) He didn't rush me at all, the Breakfast was delicious and I even ordered some of their yummy cakes to be boxed up to take home.Onto last week, The Bow Window had started doing take-aways, I had been self isolating with my Mum due to health conditions, we decided that we needed to get out the house and have a picnic in the car, so we got take-out, the food was again Amazing & The staff are so friendly, they cannot do enough for you. They make the BEST apple tarts around I can't wait until they are back open fully so we can go back over and enjoy all the food and the Amazing company again...

Happened to be passing through Lenham this afternoon and found this wonderful little cafe. I ordered a coronation chicken sandwich and my fiancé had a salmon and cream cheese bagel. Both were great, and the portions more than enough to leave us stuffed! Will definitely be heading back and can't wait until they're open for seatings to try their afternoon tea!

We had been looking for somewhere to pick up a sandwich and coffee post walk and a friend recommended this place. It was lovely, I had a toastie with bacon and Brie and my husband had a coronation chicken sandwich. It really hit the spot! Lovely coffee too. Staff were very friendly, we cannot comment on the place as we did not see much of it but look forward to a sit down visit when it is fully reopen.

With parking nearby, the Bow Window cafe is located in a quaint old building, with low ceilings and little rooms. It has the added bonus of a lovely little garden out the back, which is where we chose to sit.There is a varied menu on offer here, although on the day we visited, my co-eater's first choice wasn't available; so he opted for a ham, cheese & chutney toastie, with a craft beer (a welcome choice for a cafe). I chose an impressive slice of rainbow cake, from a selection in the cake cabinet, and teamed this with a toffee fudge milkshake. I'd have preferred the milkshake to be a bit thicker, but it was pleasant enough. Sadly it didn't come with any toppings though. The cake was very spongy in texture and quite rich! The above came to £17.70 - the only thing that seemed a little steep was the toastie at £6.25.All in all, very pleasant and a safe bet if we were to find ourselves in Lenham again :-)

A lovely little find! Had the salmon and poached eggs for breakfast, very tasty and lots of salmon. I missed out on the cakes as it was a bit early but they looked amazing. I did have the hot chocolate as recommended by staff and I would go as far as to say it’s the best I have ever had! I will certainly be back soon.

Great place for coffee which is absolutely delish, lunch or afternoon tea. Wonderful friendly staff in a very picturesque village - well worth a visit!

Lovely coffee of course...really nice cakes too..not good for my waistline !! Really good service and great environment

Called into The Bow Window Café on the way home after some off-roading at True Grip, Ashford. The suggested Lenham.Anyway ordered 2 milkshakes with cream/toppings, a coffee and a tea with Soya milk. Plus one soup of the day lentil and vegetable, a brie, bacon and red onion jam toasted sandwich, a tuna melt panini and an apple tart.Service was efficient and polite, friendly just as you want. The food was excellent, my sandwich was jammed full of bacon/brie and plenty red onion jam, the tuna melt looked similarly packed, the soup went down a treat. By all accounts the apple tart was good too.We are not local, if we were would definitely call again and try some of the other offerings. If you are local give them a go, especially at this time, I know you won’t be disappointed and they will appreciate the custom I'm sure.

I came here, with a friend, for a birthday afternoon tea. The food, service, surroundings were lovely; so enjoyable that we just relaxed and chatted! Had to rush finishing the tasty tea because they were closing!

Just had an excellent experience at this super little coffee shop/cafe. We stopped here mid-morning and had a Mocha coffee and almond milk Latte. These were both good - and made even better with a delightful apple tart (puréed apple with apple pieces on top, inside a light-as-a-feather pastry) and a good toasted tea cake.Very friendly staff, nice atmosphere, would recommend anyone to try here.They do lunches and theme evenings too - but obviously we haven’t experienced those - yet!

Tried to book from a voucher that we were given for Christmas and told that they won't honour the voucher. Really bad attitude, was quite blunt on the phone. I would avoid.

Really lovely place, nicely decorated and good atmosphere . Staff friendly and professional, and attentive. Cream tea great will recommend to family and friends .

So me and a few friends popped here a few weeks ago for a spot of lunch whilst on a long walk. The village of Lenham is picturesque and then we spotted the Bow Window which is located right in the middle of the town.The premises is really cute inside and gives you a real warm feeling when you step in, plus the staff were lovely. I had a Coronation Chicken Baguette and a hot chocolate and they did not disappoint. The hot chocolate was overflowing with whipped cream and marshmallows and was so tasty. We will definitely be back soon.

Despite booking a table for lunch several days beforehand we were shown to a tiny space in a back room (former scullery?). There was barely room to squeeze in one of the seats and the other chair was stuck half-way across the entrance so bumped into by everyone passing. In addition it was in direct line of the front door which seemed to be open more than closed so, on a chilly morning, added to the discomfort. We left, so cannot comment on the food.

Sarah and staff have made this awesome to visit -it fits in well with the village.

Enjoyable Afternoon Tea in pleasant surroundings. Nice view of the garden from our table. Choice of coffees, with a free refil. Would recommend.

I booked the afternoon tea for 4 via groupon, the Facebook page looks great so I was looking forward to it, but was sadly disappointed. I contacted them ahead and asked if we could bring 3 adults and two children (3&6) which they said was fine but had forgotten when we got there. The biggest thing was there was so little food, very small amount of sandwiches, shop bought scones with jam and cream and 3 canapé sized frozen shop bought desserts each (profiterole, brownie, vanilla eclair). We asked for more sandwiches (which we would pay for) and were told there was no more and not offered an alternative. We were so hungry we had to buy a slice of cake each and we were charged for a second pot of tea (£20 for 3 teas and 3 slices of cake!). No one checked on us at all throughout, the staff were all stood chatting around the counter. Staff were nice enough but seemed to really not care about us- perhaps because it was a groupon voucher?! We won’t be returning!

Just back from a lovely work Christmas lunch at the Bow Window. What an absolute gem of a place in the heart of Lenham village. As a local business we use the Bow Window regularly as Sarah and her staff always make us feel so very welcome. The food is always excellent and Sarah takes great pride in where her ingredients and food are sourced from. You are always welcomed with a smile and made to feel as though you are more than just a number. Thank you so much Sarah, Courtney, Molly and all the staff. Brilliant as always xx

Visited the Bow Window today as a birthday present for my Dad. At first we thought it was lovely, nicely decorated and staff seemed nice to start with. We were served our afternoon tea which we thought was nice although filling in the sandwiches was slightly on the sparse side. Then...once we had finished, we asked for more tea (not offered) which is just a refill of hot water so beware of the second pot of tea being VERY weak. It then got worse...when we asked for a couple more sandwiches which we were told were not included in the price by the first waitress, even though every other afternoon tea we have had we have always been offered more and not even had to ask. So we said we didn’t mind paying as we were enjoying our time there, another waitress came over and said they weren’t able to make anymore sandwiches due to not having the facilities. We thought it was strange as people were still ordering food and they are a cafe, but accepted it. We sat for a further few minutes when we noticed a couple sat on the table next to us, who had come in after us and ordered once we asked for more sandwiches had just been served sandwiches. We were both shocked and annoyed that the waitress LIED! The fact we were willing to pay but told we couldn’t have them and then to see others getting served was VERY disappointing.

A group of ten of us were visiting Lenham and looking for somewhere for coffee and breakfast. By chance we went into the Bow Window and despite being relatively small in size they managed to accommodate us. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and coffee and food were great. We were not hurried in any way and all of us said we would certainly be back.

We enjoyed a lovely tea in this cosy tearoom. We took our dog and he had his own bowl of treats to. The staff were lovely and very helpful. We will return

Had a groupon voucher for afternoon tea. The sandwiches were tasteless but ok. There was 3 finger sandwiches per person so not really very much. There were sausage rolls which were burnt and the scones were also burnt. The other cakes were artificial. I wouldn’t visit this place again.

Everthing was lovely when we (my Mum and I) visited for a quick lunch. My Mum chose the homemade soup which was celery and stilton which I also fancied. However, being a coeliac, I have to have a gluten free diet and worringly the waitress was unable to confirm whether the soup was gluten free or not! I would have thought this sort of information was crucial in running a restaurant.

Excellent service and very flexible with our fussy order. Very helpful and friendly staff and nice food, just the right amount for us as a family. We will be going back.

Nice cosy cafe. Great breakfast menu. Smoked salmon, scrambled egg and toast. Nice tea. Well worth a visit.

The Cheese Tea is to die for!!! Staff and owner were friendly and welcoming. Lovely little find during our unplanned stop in Lenham

Not sure what to say other than awesome. Fabulous staff, fabulous food, Scrumptious cakes and fabulous service. My son loves their hot chocolate covered in marshmallows and I love that many of their succulent cakes are gluten free and honestly you would never know.

Had Afternoon Tea for two here today using a Groupon voucher. Lovely homemade cakes on display but unfortunately you don’t get them with the Afternoon Tea. It consisted of 8 finger sandwiches (ham and mustard, egg and cress, smoked salmon and cream cheese and cucumber), 4 cocktail sausage rolls, 2 fruit scones with cream and jam, and 6 tiny cakes that probably came from Bookers. Pleasant enough and good value for the £13.95 Groupon price but I would have been disappointed if I’d paid the full price of £30.00. Come on guys, how about some of your lovely homemade cakes!

Visited with my parents quite late on a Tuesday afternoon after a trip to Leeds Castle. We had the nicest, friendliest welcome I can remember and felt very much at home, although we'd never been before.

As always, the staff were attentive and polite. Food was good, however we did wait rather a long time for scrambled eggs. Excellent menu and value for money. I will definitely go back again.

Tasty, locally sourced food freshly prepared, a great range of drinks and helpful, friendly staff. Whether you are looking for a great breakfast, a quick snack, a wholesome lunch or a cuppa and a slice of homemade cake this is the place to go. Definitely recommended.

Gorgeous food and a warm welcome. I highly recommend the Bow Window, it’s in a lovely setting and, provides locally sourced foods.

We booked for afternoon tea and it was lovely. Good food plenty of tea and lovely staff so friendly. Worth a visit.

Friendly staff situated in a lovely village square. Good food with a relaxing atmosphere. Great to just pop in and unwind with a coffee

Really lovely little cafe that is very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The food was fantastic and sandwiches like they used to be years ago. Highly recommend this cafe. Really worth a visit.

A very good little coffee shop sited within a traditional village building close to the village centre and free car parking. Close to the A20 and a convenient detour from the M20 route to/from the channel ports.

Greeted and had table reserved for us..plenty of refills of tea if wanted...food arrived...not a lot but worth the money with groupon voucher...one scone,few little cakes not very tasty..filling in sandwiches a bit stingey....staff nice..surroundings ok..

My daughter and I had afternoon tea after having read very good reviews but our experience was not good. The seating was not good, we were put at an open window with a blast of wind blowing in. I tried to close the window to make our experience better but the window wouldn’t close. The food - a very poor choice of sandwiches which included raw salmon, cucumber, egg and ham served in hard bread. A few mini sausage rolls separated the sandwiches. The top layer of the cake stand had a few basic pastries and scones (no cream for the scones) served on a cracked plate. I’ve been treated to afternoon tea in various restaurants and hotels but I’ve never had such a disappointing experience.

I tried out the Bow Window coffee shop for the first time this morning having moved recently into the area. It is a lovely venue with a good variety of food and drinks on the menu. I was welcomed warmly by Sarah and chose a flat white, slice of cake and a milkshake- all were excellent and served quickly. They also have beautiful garden at the back of the coffee shop which was a nice surprise and a perfect space to sit and spend a Sunday morning.

We had this bought for us via wowcher as a gift. We were not dissappoint the room is light and airy with a mixture of seats and tables, with easy chairs and a sofa too. Slightly Georgian style with shabby chic touch. The staff are welcoming and very attentive. The afternoon Tea was a combination of finger sandwiches, ham with mustard, cucumber, salmon and cream cheese, sausage rolls served slightly warm, cakes were scones with jam and cream and finger size cream cakes. All served with a drink of your choice, they also hold a license so if you want a glass of fizz you can. We enjoyed every mouthful the tea was a good quality and we had an extra pot which they did not charge us for, the food was just enough and delicious. We will diffently return I can’t wait to try the fish finger sandwich which looked heavenly. The Bow Window is truly worth a visit it’s a little gem of Lenham, well done to all we really enjoyed our visit and we will see you soon

Came with my friends for lunch really enjoyable,clean, friendly staff and good food,came again with another friend still as enjoyable

After walking 16km along the North Downs Way in the heat, it was very pleasant indeed to arrive at Lemham and to find the Bow Window Cafe. Very pleasant service and rather good cake!

My 4 year old daughter and I enjoyed an Afternoon Tea here today (My Father’s Day gift). The food was perfect, the setting and decor very nice and most importantly The staff were very friendly and attentive towards us both and nothing was too much trouble. The staff interacted with my daughter and made her feel very welcome. We’ll be visiting again for sure and I couldn’t recommend it enough - Well Done “The Bow Window”

Have been to the bow window several times now....and love it!! Staff are always very friendly and accommodating (especially when you want an obscene amount of butter on your toast). Great coffee, bacon sandwiches with the thickest softest bread ever and cakes are super yummy, the salted caramel brownie is soooo good! Can't wait to come back

A fun evening. The pizzas were delicious and the staff were wonderful. We would certainly come back again.

I went to meet and catch up with my friend .Service was prompt and friendly . We felt comfortable ,and were able to sit and chat over drinks and breakfast without any bother at all . Great place to meet up ,drink and eat.

A surprisingly spacious tea shop in the heart of Lenham. Great coffee & cake 🍰. The strawberry & prosecco 🍓🍾Victoria sponge was delicious 😋. A warm friendly welcome. Would recommend.

Great place for me as close to where I live. Staff very helpful I making sure I can get in and sit down/slightly disabled. I attend up to 3 times a week. Thé food is excellent and varied.

Myself and my mum went for afternoon tea and we had a lovely time. We looked on their website to see what the afternoon included and the price. Their website stated £15 per person. When it came to paying, we were asked to pay £21.95 per person! When I questioned the price difference, I was just dismissed with ‘our website is out of date, it needs updating’. We begrudgingly paid the almost £7 difference, this really put a dampener on our experience. I have written a letter to the manger outlining our experience and have had no response. The price for the afternoon tea on their website is a complete misrepresentation and it is not fair for them to expect people to pay the £6.95 difference when their website states differently. We will not be returning.

Had a lovely afternoon tea with family, food was plentiful, more than enough for the four of us, plenty of parking available will definitely go again

We had afternoon tea here to cheer up a friend and the atmosphere was very warm and welcoming. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Food and drink was lovely and they accommodated for all different tastes, extremely fresh produce!

From start to finish I couldn’t have asked for more. The tapas was amazing, service exemplary and the staff friendly and polite. Very reasonable price in a picturesque setting. If you want class and something a bit different for an event with a wow factor look no further. Thank you so much
