The Orchard Tea Garden in South Cambridgeshire

Excellent scone with quality brand ingredients

The place was filthy. Tables covered in dirty china, old food, dirty tablecloths. The floors could not have been swept in ages & not washed recently that’s for certain! Waste bins in the toilets were also overflowing. It was a quiet midweek visit. Food debris was seen throughout the dining areas. Absolutely disgusted by what we experienced. Ordered drinks & once we found a table (which we cleaned ourselves) & then saw the state of the place - immediately regretted it. The place was so bad it made us all feel very uneasy about any hygiene standards being adhered to. It was generally disgusting overall. Some dogs were having a field day hoovering up under various tables- as so much food debris was left all over the floors in both areas of seating! The tables were covered in old food, with most tables having dirty plates etc left on them. No one was clearing or cleaning tables. One table had a reserved sign - it was surrounded by other tables that had not been cleared in some time going by the old dried food on plates/ dirty tablecloths & dirty teacups etc & there were many. Staff were not busy - just lazy. Only one young server (lad) came into the seating area with hot drinks, but failed to take any crockery away as he returned to the kitchen! The so called female ‘manager’ would be sacked if employed by us. Teas were served from scum lined metal pots that may have been put through a dishwasher (at some point) but had evidently not been cleaned thoroughly in a long time - going by the state of the scum inside. We witnessed a rude staff response when a polite complaint was made by one person ahead of our own group. Sarcasm is not necessary, nor professional esp as the girl with dark hair, was very rude to the lady when she politely requested a replacement clean pot! No wonder she got called out for it when the so called ‘Manager’ was even ruder to her for responding to the girls overheard sarcasm - I wanted to applaud the lady who stood up to this so called ‘manager’. She called the customer rude?!! No she responded to rudeness. We left shortly afterwards - not a pleasant experience & we will not be returning either. Staff training required & more so good management is obv missing. Cleaning would be a good starting point.

A lovely garden area in which to enjoy a break with a toastie, cake or cuppa. Lots of seating outdoors though chairs can be wet of course if the weather is anything other than dry. Parking is limited to 2 hours for customers but make sure your reg number is entered into the system by the tills to avoid a penalty charge, though when we visited we were advised that the cameras were not operational that day, so check.

We return with pleasure to this magical place steeped in history in Cambridge.

Visited with 5 friends on a sunny Sunday in mid-March. The ordering system is ridiculous and the high price of a small teapot and £4 for one scone with jam and cream is completely unjustified, especially on a student budget as we are and as many in Cambridge are. We did not order sandwiches or any proper lunch foods due to the high prices. If sitting outside, you have to go up and queue at a door to a table at the entrance to the dining room, and order at this table. There is no signage for this anywhere! When you get to this table to order, it is your first chance to look at a menu, so obviously that slows the ordering process a lot. We waited for at least 15 minutes to even order, as customers in front of us were indecisive: fine, but clearly indicative that two ordering stations and earlier access to menus would be an improvement. You then take a buzzer to your table to notify you when to come and collect your order. Two pots of tea, a scone and a slice of cake took 20 minutes to prepare. You have to take your tray back to the main building when you have finished. There were also no signs for toilets at all, and it was impossible to find a staff member to ask for their whereabouts. The Tea Garden was hosting what I assume was a large school trip at the time of our visit, and their queue to get into one of the smaller dining rooms was totally obstructing the narrow corridor leading to the loos that I eventually found. The large orchard/garden does have plenty of tables a nice distance from one another with deckchairs, most full as it was the weekend! Overall: very poor system for ordering, no real 'service', confusing signs if any, high prices and very limited parking options. But nice atmosphere in the orchard if it is a sunny day.

Rarely provide 5 stars but this is a place which worth to have. The scone! and also other food and drink is perfect, on the other hand sit under the blossoming apple trees in an idillyc garden, in an atmosphere where poets, writers, philosophers enjoyed the same place and were inspired. Walking here along the river is a must.g

ケンブリッジの街中から自然あふれる遊歩道を小1時間歩くと行けます。本格的なアフタヌーンティーは予約制のようですが、スコーンとミルクティーは当日でも楽しめます。

Fabulous service, the food was delicious in a lovely setting. Must come back in the summer to sit outside abs share the experience with the very friendly ducks

This place is lovely and the scones are excellent

We were extremely disappointed on our visit here. Told to wait at the door if we wanted to eat outside and then ignored by the staff! The staff were not busy so no idea why they didn’t come to take our order. We waited patiently but then decided that if they didn’t want our custom we would leave. Definitely will not be returning and as locals this was somewhere in the past that we loved to visit.

Had a Mother's Day tea here for wife & daughter. Enjoyed it - pleasant gardens, tea was v enjoyable - collection of cakes, sandwiches & savoury bits. Wld go again

Edites 2024 Tea gardens are now in different thanks and m2nu is drastically reduced. They do not have enough staff and you can queue for up to am hour for food. There is no set system for people queuing to sit inside vs outside so it's muddled slow and disorganised. The tea gardens are a must especially in the warmer weather we are now getting. Arrive early to avoid disappointment as seating is at a premium due to popularity of the beautiful setting amongst the orchard trees. There is a good range of food here for snacks tea and scones, sandwiches, drinks etc and you can book a table for a party and afternoon tea. Be prepared to be patient as the queue is often long to get served and the staff a little slow. However she you are served everything is lovely, staff are helpful and food is delicious.

Its crazy that Wittgenstein and Russell were hanging out here. Scones were great and homemade but such a place should not have prepackaged cream. Tea was too expensive for a bagged one as well.

It is a very historical place, Bertrand Russell himself has a photo taken in the orchard. I ordered a cream tea (£4.7), came with one homemade scone, and shop bought clotted cream and jam. Add a cup of tea is another £3.3. Although the scone is homemade, I would prefer to have homemade jam and cream. Also, £3.3 for a tea bag and some hot water is too much, even for London. Never the less, I enjoyed my cream tea.

We went for afternoon tea at a cost of £36 pp and it was awful. Only the scone was good. Sadly the cakes and sandwiches were extremely dry and were obviously frozen then thawed which were frankly awful!! A complete waste of money never again!!!!! The building was also freezing!! A very poor expensive experience!!!

I love this little gem of a tea garden! The food is so delicious and they have great coffee. I also love how the inside is decorated. I only gave 4 stars because we were waiting for our bill and then to pay for almost an hour! Even though it was super busy as it was a Sunday afternoon, we had to start putting our coats on before the server came over with the card machine! So maybe a few more employees would ease the pressure at busier times. Also if you don't like egg then it feels like you lose some value for money.. I asked to swap the egg for some smoked salmon but instead I had to pay extra for salmon even with no egg, making it £14 for avocado and smoked salmon on toast which seemed like quite a lot! So maybe having some flexibility and options to swap would be great :)

My daughter and I booked this lovely little place whilst visiting Cambridge. The afternoon tea was really good with a great selection of sandwiches, scones and savoury quiches all made on the premises. The service was very professional, the staff were attentive and very keen to make sure we had everything we needed. If I was to criticise very slightly, i think the outside tables should be put on the gravel next to the restaurant. It was a bit muddy on the day, so our shoes got a bit dirty and we found it hard to move the chairs easily. Apart from that....loved the experience, thank you 😊

We are tourists from out of town and found this gem through a google search. We booked for an afternoon cream tea. All the food is made in-house. The persons working provided phenomenal service and checked in with us regularly. There wasn’t a vegetarian option online, perhaps we could have warned them, but it might be an idea to have it as an option some day when booking on the website. We are loose vegetarians so it wasn’t much of a bother. We asked for more tea and they were happy to provide. They got us a bigger one with two tea bags for the two of us. The food was amazing, and the staff happily moved us outside as requested on the day. Other constructive feedback I would give: I think providing two sets of cutlery would be wonderful, one for savoury and one for sweet. A lovely little touch would be to have quirky china English tea pots cups and saucers to match the cream tea aesthetic. They are not expensive and would really add to the experience! I also think an option to “upgrade” the tea to a glass/bottle of wine would be a great upsell! We had a wonderful time and will be encouraging others to go. Thank you to the team for a wonderful experience

Avoid at all costs. Dirty floor, dirty tables, unwashed glassware, wrong order, non-functioning toilets. An embarrassment!!

Very historic place, bet it’s very nice in the summer. Bottom room I would avoid it’s run down and tatty Top room has a good atmosphere is warmer and looks maintained. Staff OK but the lad who served us didn’t know what the soup do the day was which is pretty basic stuff to know. Food was all good, only criticism was the sourdough toast (though very nice) wasn’t buttered on the breakfasts which made it dry. Coffee was nice middle of the road on taste, eggs sausage and bacon all very pleasant. Soup and cheese scones amazing I am told. Only thing would make it better is to do some work on the bottom room, sort plasterboard damage in roof, get it painted up as it looks neglected, add / fix log burner or heating as it was drafty and cold down there and butter the blinking toast or at least ask / offer butter. Having avocado with the Breccy I had never had before and it was decent and much enjoyed. Food was pretty nice and it is definately worth a visit and walk (summer months especially I would think) Dog Friendly too

A bit scruffy. Needs an update. Food is average. I don't really recommend it.

I hate to write such a negative review of somewhere I have enjoyed visiting many many times but I have to ask the question 'What on earth has happened to the iconic Orchard Tea rooms'? It was once a place that we loved to take friends (we took friends there on Saturday but it was such a disappointment). It was very sad to see. On a positive, the Avocado Toast with Poached Egg was Ok but the tea was cold, service was very slow and I don't know where to start on the toilet facilities (looked like they had never been cleaned and one cubicle had it's handle missing which made it virtually impossible to lock the door). If the loos are a reflection of the kitchen cleanliness it's a real worry (I cannot believe the loos in their current state would pass Environmental Health Officer muster!). The place looks unloved :(

The service is extremely poor. Had to wait for sometime to be seated while tables were available and not enough staff to prepare them for the next customers. We sat outside and the table was very dirty. When I asked the waitress who brought the food to wipe it first, she just distributed the mud all over the table surface and left the food without cutlery, on the table and disappeared. I had never seen that kind of service anywhere in the UK. The cream tea was nice, but had to ask three members of staff until to get a tea to go with it! The soups were nice and scones very tasty. The avocado toast was fine but the extra bacon we ordered to go with it looked like a piece of rubber. They had ran out of the sandwiches that my husband wanted. I had very good memories of this place but I don't think I would go there anymore or recommend it to someone.

I love this place! In summer it's wonderful to sit outside under the apple trees. In cold weather you have the option of sitting inside. I've been here a few times and have only had good experiences. The service staff are very nice and the tea and other drinks are delicious. The food is my highlight. No matter what you order, it tastes great. The ingredients seem to be of really high quality and the preparation and presentation are done with great attention to detail. I can particularly recommend the scones. I love having breakfast here, I think the classic English breakfast is the best in the area. However, this is only available in summer, as far as I know. Instead, I had this avocado sandwich last time (in the photo), which I can only recommend. It was absolutely delicious!

Loved the scones. Make sure arrive ahead of them closing.

The perfect reward for the end of the approx. 1.5 mile walk through Gloucester Meadows. I had a quintessential scone with clotted cream and jam—scone was nice a moist/fluffy. Service was attentive. We visited during the winter—what I presume to be an off season. The cafe is spacious and offers a variety of indoor and outdoor seating options during warmer weather. I would absolutely recommend the jaunt.

One of my favorite places, but sadly the scones aren’t as good as they used to be

Many thanks to Jessica and the team at The Orchard for an excellent afternoon tea at a reunion with a group of our friends. Well organised with superb food and really helpful staff all in such a historic setting. We hope that the renovations go smoothly. And it is all dog friendly.

Nice end to a long walk into Town. Friendly attentive.

Love coming here, I think it's better in the summer only because it looks more quaint with deckchairs under the apple trees. Not enough seating outside this time of year but still had a lovely visit.

Nice place. Nice food. Dog friendly.

Be aware, very aware of the service charge of 12%, which was not worth it. Waited a while to be seated, menu I assume, as it is Christmas, is limited. Three of us had soup, which was good. One of us had a breakfast but does not eat eggs, so asked for Avocado (£3.00 extra) Milk alternative 40p extra. Total bill £61.15. I know that most people who would go here are very wealthy and would not bat an eyelid but I am just warning any of you who have to watch the pennies.

Great, loved it . The Welsh rarebit was amazing

Great place for cream tea. Very nice selection of cakes too. The scones contained too much baking powder and it was difficult to get rid of its aftertaste.

It's absolutely a lovely place to hang out

I write this review after both speaking to the staff on our visit and emailing too. With zero acknowledgement or response to our feedback. Disappointing and underwhelmed is an under statement. Cold food uncooked food, dirty tables, no clean cutlery, dirty toilets, dirty glasses for water, overpriced warm coffee and filthy floor. Literally the worst £20 we've spent on supporting a small business and zero care from them about all the above.

Great place to relax and spend some time with friends. Good choices of food.

Came to visit this place a few months ago, parking said it was free for 2 hours for customers, was there for 1hr15 and just today got a £100 parking fine in the post! Absolute joke, I was a customer! Please hire a less aggressive company to manage your car park. And if they're gonna send mercenary debt collections letters TO THE HOMES OF YOUR CUSTOMERS, please put signs everywhere warn this (more than just fineprint - this should be in block caps all over the car park). The cashier didn't ask me if I was parked or anything.

This place must rake it in due to it's gorgeous location and yet it manages to be relentlessly rubbish. From long queues in the cold only to find they've run out of whatever you want to order to toilets with no door handles and a drafty seating area in desperate need of a refurb. It's all a bit disappointing.

Perfect walk from Grandchester Meadows to the Tea house. One can't help feel the presence of the young Pink Floyd. Or something out of Eind in the Willows.Beautiful food,tea and atmosphere.

I went to Granchester recently with my disabled mother. Parked in a blue badge bay. A sign said to give numberplate at the till but there was no clear way to do so and no one asked for the number plate so assumed not needed. 1 week later - £100 fine. Couldn’t be bothered to challenge it so paid it but did challenge the lack of clarity with the management and got a sneering and rude response. The place is anyway not very disability friendly with few suitable chairs and as others have observed the price has risen and the quality is average at best. The queues are endless and they don’t employ enough staff. I won’t go back though, due to the sneering response from the management when I suggested they could make their process clearer.

A very atmospheric place, it must be fantastic in the summer.

An historic place that you must visit if you're in the area. It's about 30 minutes walk from Cambridge. I have tea here and only eaten an apple pie, which was fine. They now do more vegetarian options but very few vegan options. The best time to come is when the weather is good because you can sit outside in the orchard on deckchairs. It's good for groups too.

I just loved it. My congratulations to the people working there. It is not only the traditional cream tea but also the atmosphere you have in the hours you're there. A truly welcoming place.

The tea garden has a great ambiance. We visited here place for breakfast. There were many different options for breakfast. However, I recommend you go early, especially after 11am there was a long queue and it became impossible to find a seat.

Sadly the Orchard Tea Rooms is nothing like it used to be. The service is far too slow - only one person taking money, making hot drinks and doing food orders. No plain scones at all this morning at a place that used to be famous for its cream teas. Our second very disappointing visit to this place.

Staff unsure how to make hot coffee. Tables filthy as in not cleaned/ disinfected between patrons. Poor service all round. Decided not to eat after having coffee.

I was a customer on saturday 30th september 2023. I parked, bought food, gave my license plate number, and left within the time limit. One week later I was sent a parking fine for £100. I appealed with proof of payment but this was rejected on the grounds that it was a bank statement rather than a receipt. The fine was reduced to £20 provided that I didn't appeal further. At that point, it didn't seem worth it to fight on. I don't know if this is a malicious scam or incompetence. Either way, beware.

We dropped in for brunch and had the delicious avocados and mushrooms on sourdough. Very tasty and well presented. It was quite hard to work out what was vegan from the menu, but the staff were great at helping us. Despite it being quite busy, the staff were doing a great job with orders and we didn't have to wait long for our food. We also loved walking around the orchard and along the river. It's an absolutely beautiful spot. Highly recommended.

A great outdoor space, very popular. Wonderful to see families making use of the outdoors, sitting in groups on deckchairs for the afternoon on an Autumn day and going for a walk in nature. Would highly recommend.

Lovely food but expensive for what it is. We went for lunch and had 2X sausage, bacon and egg ciabattas at £11 each. Didn't even come with fries or salad at that price.

Very good scones! About £3.60 each without cream and jam. They have cakes, coffee, wine, and of course tea. The garden is lovely and spacious - you can set up your own chairs and plot yourself under the sun for some warmth.

Heel gezellig en in de tuin staan overal ligstoelen

Nice place to stop for a cuppa.

Plain scone with clotted cream was great! You can make it a cream tea by adding/removing clotted cream, jam and hot drink.

Good food - portion sizes too small however for the cost. Great service but v. slow. Lovely setting - owner's notices about no eating own food etc a bit over-the-top.

Beautiful place lovely pot of tea and home made cake to eat and they even gave us water in a bowl for my dog🐕 would recommend this place to everyone 😀

The Orchard is such an amazing venue with so much history and tradition. It’s such a shame that the organisation and staff do not reflect the setting. The service was extremely slow, we queued for over half an hour to just get a bottle of water. So if you come to visit, be prepared to wait!

Scones are impeccable, to the extent that thinking about coming here for the scone can save me from cravings for scones at many other places (such as coffee chains). Ham and Cheddar Panini Melt was surprisingly tasty. The bread was crisp and thin (less carbs for me) and the cheese melts perfectly on the ham. The crisps were really crunchy. Coffee from automated machine. Nothing really to comment on without the injection of some human spirit. Not bad. Tea from Twining tea bags, which is a little sad for a tea garden, isn’t it? Food and drink is quite overpriced here, but it’s worth paying for the environment at the lovely and relaxing garden. — update 2023 Same lovely scones after change of hands. Lucky we made it a few minutes before closing and bought one of the last tray— warm out of oven. Inside the crunchy shell, it is moist yet indulgently crumbly, not too sweet. Still my favorite in Cambridge and among the top in my UK list. — Such a long line during the warm October Sunday afternoon. The scone is wonderful as usual. Warm, crusty, moist. A little richer and more salted-buttery than usual.

Service very slow, choice limited, Not good value for many

Went there with the dog to draw! The staff were very friendly and the athmosphere was wonderful! Highly recommend.

Pleasant but very expensive. Cream tea uses clotted cream in a mass produced plastic pots but the scones were freshly baked.

I met friends here today and we all sat out in the sunshine and chatted while we dined. We all had the Welsh Rarebit which tasted absolutely spot on. I finished up with a slice of coffee and walnut cake which was so yummy. The other three had scones which they said were very good. The coffees and teas were hot and tasty too. I can’t fault anything. They are now under different management and it certainly showed. We will be back! Thanks a lot

So disappointing! After purchasing our coffee & cake we decided to take a seat outside in the Orchard. The sun came out and we sat back in our chairs enjoying the quiet of a beautiful autumn morning. This is after all the reason most people go ….to experience the beauty & atmosphere of an iconic & quintessentially old English orchard along with all its history. We were startled out of our dreamy morning coffee by the very loud and tinny sound of rock music which came blaring out from the open doors and windows of the cafe kitchen. I don’t think the staff here “get it” in terms of what they’ve taken on! This is not a burger joint in the city centre, it’s an old established iconic tea room set in a beautiful orchard! The inside is sadly also very shabby and crumbling (toilets are not great either) but I don’t think this bothered me as much as the ill placed & inconsiderate music! It would be nice to see this place run by people who understood the responsibility of the heritage they’ve undertaken.

We love the orchard cafe and being able to sit out under the trees with a cream tea. It still warm enough and there are not may wasps about. Hoping to go a few more times whenever there is good weather. Tip: If you are not keen on deckchairs there are some garden director style seats to be found. Worth looking for.

I was looking forward to visiting the Orchard Tea Rooms again, as we had not been in Grantchester since before the pandemic and genuinely wanted to enjoy this special and (to us) memorable place. The only positive is that they have abandoned the (punitive) parking...

Throughout Spring and Summer weekend visits to The Orchard are always crowded but always worth it especially for afternoon tea following a stroll in the meadow. One of my favourite places.

This place is trading on its qintessentially English garden and has lost view of customer experience and service. We started queuing at 3.20pm on a Saturday afternoon - the queue moved so slowly as there were not enough staff. There was a blackboard saying that...

This usually great tea garden appears to have joined the ranks of restaurants and shops that state a closing time, but actually start closing quite a while before it. After queueing for 20 minutes at 4.15pm, I was disappointed to be told that the kitchen...

Very sweet place. Enjoyed tea and cake in the Autumn sunshine.

The Orchard Tea Garden ist sehenswert. Ein Garten mit altem Baumbestand, zum Teil Fruchtbäume. Den Service fand ich sehr schlecht,da lediglich ein Mitarbeiter sehr viele Menschen bedienen musste. Da lediglich 2 Stunden Parkzeit kostenlos sind, wird der Aufenthalt schnell teuer. Das Essen...Scones waren sehr lecker. Allgemein sehr hochpreisig. Der Spaziergang über die Felder ist wunderschön.

Приятное место. В саду, среди яблоневых деревьев стоят столики и раскладные кресла. По вашему желанию их можно переставлять. Кресла даже можно разложить в шезлонг.) Чай, честно говоря, не самый прекрасный, но с молоком - ок. А вот сконы действительно чудесные, с хрустящей корочкой. Не стоит их разламывать руками, как магазинные. Лучше разрезать ножом. Тесто более масляное. В целом было приятно.

Spacious and beautiful tea garden. We spent a couple of hours enjoying our cream tea and the outdoor garden. The food was good, the garden was lovely. To those who would like to visit—be prepared to spend substantial amount of time queuing and then looking for a place to sit since even in February it was challenging to find an unoccupied table. Pros *Freshly baked scones with clotted cream and variety of jams *Big and beautiful garden *Picturesque pathways and surrounding areas, we walked to Cambridge after having a cream tea and enjoyed our little walk immensely Cons *Queues 😑 *Staff are here to mind the cash counter, you would beed to find a table and bring your trays there by yourself. Tbh, it’s not really a con, just a mild inconvenience but I almost dropped my tray since it was heavy and that’s an unpleasant memory. *As tables and chairs are often located under the trees, don’t be surprised to see bird poo covering them. 😊

Boy does this place need a makeover!! Don’t think it’s been decorated since Rupert Brooke drank his tea there !! Dark , dirty and grim . If you fancy afternoon tea in a scout hut , this is the place for you , very disappointed

Lovely garden and great vibe to enjoy the last big of summer, except for some queuing in a good weather, but understandable. Plus, perfect view and distance to hike back to the city. Highly recommend!

By far the best scones I've ever had. Their scones are so popular the fresh ones being baked constantly. Felt it's bit pricy for what you get but it was really good scones... However it's a cafeteria style serving (you bring your tray and take it to your seat yourself) so no service is provided really.

Always a lovely place to go and sit for the afternoon with a wonderful selection of cakes and drinks

Ihana paikka, kannattaa poiketa jos osuu matkan varrelle.

Lovely sitting out amongst the trees and having the birds coming to visit. Very good food and helpful friendly service.

You can't beat the outdoor sitting area and the meadows for walking (5 stars just for that reasoning alone). Flat white was good and cakes etc are fairly standard. They stop serving food at 3pm, so we missed it this time. Also, the tables outside need to be cleaned more often.

Loads of place to sit and relax. Parking on site is hard to get.

Really nice place with some historical significance. The scones are exceptional here.

Little piece of heaven after a stroll by the river.. Relax in the shady Orchard. Highly recommended

Little coffee shop and cafe by the river in Grantchester. Prices are what you expect then a bit more, but the latte was really good. 2 hours parking on site, after 2 hours the charges are, ahem, rather steep! That's as kind as I can be. We only had drinks so can't comment on the food. You can do a walk along the river and back for coffee easily within the 2 hours so it's not all gloom.

Great area for peace, quiet and good food too Stretch your legs with a walk to the river

Lovely orchard with tables and deck chairs. Perfect for lunch or afternoon tea.

Great atmosphere and quality of tea, good quantity given. Refreshing place to go summer or indoors in the winter

Nice place to be but grossly over-expensive for what it is. They should also spend some money on the toilets as they are pretty gross too. There is no real service hence the middle ranking.

Very Poor. I have known the Orchard all my life and have been there many times with friends and family, but after the last experience will not be returning. It was an embarrassment to entertain 4 Chinese visitors . The tea cups were dirty, ie....

Nice outside by the deck chairs in the orchard but the building needs some tlc. Toilets dirty and general building run down.

Lovely garden space and really nice food selection with local ingredients! A sunny day would flood the counters a bit too much, so get here arky to find a spot or chairs! Had some warm scones for cream tea one sunday afternoon, which was lovely.

Absolutely wonderful to find the peace and calm and to enjoy the sunshine and a perfect cream tea.

Beautiful place, lovely sunny day.very peaceful. Food was lovely.

Seems to have gone downhill. Firstly they are using the con artist firm Civil Enforcement who have in the past sent an £80 fine for parking at the Old Spring although I was a customer. So make sure you a: register when you park (which...

Good food. Great ambience. Friendly staff.

Food, fresh scones from oven absolutely delicious. The place does appear quite tired, needs a freshen up xx

Delicious food, beautiful garden👍

Excellent place to unwind and relax.

Very nice place for brunch or lunch. Scones were particularly delicious, freshly baked and nice. Relaxing atmosphere and children friendly space. Totally recommend.

Very nice and relaxing place. The comfortable chairs and the orchard around make it special. The tea and scones are amazing, but the sandwiches are too expensive and plain...sorry. Also the staff are friendly and everything around is welcoming .
