The Little Tea-room in Cheshire East - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Delicious fresh food as a "light bite" menu. We had homemade parsnip and apple soup with wholemeal bread. Goats cheese and beetroot quiche with potato salad and side salad. Pot of tea for two. Good value and fresh.

As the Hall didn't open until 11am when we arrived it was time for coffee break and a shared cake. We sat at a table in the garden relaxing and then it was lunchtime! So, back to this cafe for sandwiches for lunch. Later we did go around the house and gardens but there has to be priorities!

Hubby and me enjoyed a pleasant visit to Little Moreton Hall on a recent Friday afternoon in June (see separate review). Mrs. Dale's Pantry had closed at 2 p.m. so we went for a mid-afternoon snack at The Little Tea-Room next door. There was a variety of tempting cakes on the counter but Hubby chose a "little cream tea" which consisted of a sweet scone accompanied by a small pot of Cornish clotted cream and a tiny jar of strawberry jam. A pot of tea was included in the price of £5.95. I opted for a savoury cheese scone and butter (£1.95) and a pot of tea (£2.45). The total bill came to £10.95 which Hubby was able to pay by card (contactless). We took our tray of treats outiside and sat at one of the tables in the Orchard Garden, making the most of the glorious Cheshire sunshine. Both the sweet and savoury scones were fresh and filling. The resident ducks were disappointed to find there were no leftover crumbs!
