The Silverwood Tearooms and Restaurant in South Holland

Myself & a friend stopped off at Silverwood cafe! We had a look round the garden centre & other shops, quiet at the time! We decided to have the breakfast on our visit, the food was mediocre, the server was very polite & jolly! Unfortunately while we were sat in the restaurant, our visit was disturbed by loud foul language, only can assume from the kitchen. I really do not appreciate visiting a cafe to hear swearing while I try to enjoy my food. As for visiting again, I shall not!

Good basic food offer with an additional specials board. We arrived after lunch service had finished, unknown to us, but the lovely lady on duty re-opened and served us a delicious, great value lunch.

We visited the tearooms on the basis of their excellent score and the prettiness of the photos on TripAdvisor . The tearoom is now a diner so at first we thought we’d come to the wrong place. We wanted cafe food, having not had breakfast that morning so burgers and hotdogs didn’t appeal. However we found hot sandwiches on the menu. I had a bacon and egg sandwich with a side order of fries. It was absolutely delicious and the fries were hot, crisp and tasty. My husband had loaded fries. These had grated cheese on rather than cheese sauce which he was a bit disappointed about. It didn’t stop him eating all of them though. It’s me who’s doing the review though and I was extremely pleased with my choices. The decor, although now diner style is still vintage and very pretty. There were some lovely touches, such as matching cutlery holders, and the service was excellent.

Stopped for a lite bite and I wasn’t impressed! The good - have a breakfast sandwich, looked good and my two said they tasted good The bad - chicken and bacon sandwich was chopped up nuggets not breast meat which I sent back, the chips tasted like they were cooked in old oil, the hot chocolate was bitter and the scone was hot, doughy and tasteless. For £32 a real let down for a place off the beaten trail which we won’t be in any rush to visit again. The young lady serving was helpful and very apologetic when asked about the filling, if I was the owner I would be concerned that sandwiches are being sent back…

This USED to be a lovely tea room with proper tablecloths and themed on 'The Forties'. The food was great and the service was really good with waitresses dressed in the style of that time. A delightful step back in time. We took visiting family there for a late lunch - just on 2o'clock - this week. I so wish we hadn't bothered. There was nobody else in the room at all - that should really have given us a bit of a clue! Hot dog and chips was a hot dog roll with 2 ordinary cheap sausages in. The jacket potato was the only one left - should have been another clue! It was luke warm, overcooked with impossible to cut and eat skin. The tomato ketchup holders were grubby and the sauce inside was a curious orange colour and certainly was not ketchup as we know it. No tablecloths, no napkins, no forties style. in fact, not style much at all. Would I go back? Certainly not.

Although cake prices the same the slices sizes were so different - One slice huge another small. When I questioned this it was swopped. Very busy had to wait a whhile to be served. Coffee okay but nothing special tbh.

Second time going to this establishment and once again closed although sign outside stated opening hours 10am to 4pm. It was 2.45pm.. so obviously I will not be trying again….on saying that ladies in gift shop were lovely..shame tearooms let them down..

Don't say you are open when clearly your NOT at 10:15am on 31/12/22 we have travelled a distance to visit WON'T CALL AGAIN

I had a breakfast panini and really enjoyed it will have it again highly recommend the cafe to anyone, you get your moneys worth can’t wait for the next one

Today for the first time I had the pleasure of a breakfast baguette from silver wood tea rooms, all I need to say is it was perfect! Can't wait for the next one.

Nothing against the shop at all but the tea rooms are poor. Cakes were dry and the lady on the counter was ignorant/rude or perhaps signage stating to take a seat.

Myself, my wife, and my mother in law have been a few times for lunch and breakfast. All meals were amazing. The hotdog isn't even a hot dog, its a megadog! The breakfast was cooked perfectly to my liking. When a meal came with an ingredient my mother in law couldnt eat, the staff were more than happy to change it! Wonderful staff and an amazing atmosphere. Will definitely reccomend this place to my wonderful relatives when they take their loved ones out for dinner.

We have not been for a few months owing to the pandemic, well what a nasty surprise. We went today and, first thing is the Tearoom has been moved, to a much larger room, no atmosphere awful food, and we asked for an Americano with Cream, we dont do cream she said. We thought the prices were much too high too, a Cream tea?? yes cream, for one is £17.00 Such a shame, does anybody know what happened there.

We decided to have some lunch after Christmas shopping in the garden centre, we noticed they had tea room and always wanted to try it. The staff were very attentive friendly and recommend some lovely food to try. The portions are really good size. The lady said she's like to see some food left over rather than you go away hungry. The food was so tasty and proper home cooked style. We were too full to try the desserts but they looked tasty too.

My wife and myself came in today and had a wonderful Christmas meal - just like Mum used to make. Very tasty lots of turkey, a variety of veg, big yorkies, lovely roast potatoes, plenty of gravy and a great Christmas pud after. Very comfortable and Christmassey in the Tearoom and such friendly, smashing staff. Make sure you go when you're hungry You certainly won't be disappointed

We visited for the first time on the 30th October 2021, despite having been on the list of places to visit for over a decade, we finally made it there as a family that weekend. After other family had beaten us to it and said it would be the type of place we like visiting and reading reviews online too, it did seem to be the type of place we would like and we were not disappointed. What a lovely surprise. It was fabulous. Such a delight. Besides the wonderful meals in the tearoom/restaurant, there were gifts and treats to enjoy in the shop. No, lets the start with the meals in the restaurant: I had the Gourmet Burger, which was a great meal, a great filling up meal, The burger in a bun was packed with cheese and a branston-type pickle, which had a nice kick to it. The meal also included fries and a salad. It was delicious. The cakes (of which I'm rather partial) looked delicious, but I was full. It's a lovely restaurant. Can't wait to have the next meal there. We are definitely visiting again, we visited on the 31 October and my birthday is the 2nd November and we were deliberating whether to go back to Silverwood Tearoom on my birthday instead of the planned place. That's how good it was. The family enjoyed their meals too. Now, back on to the shop part of Silverwood. What a delight. From home-crafted products to ornaments and garden-ware such as a bird table , the home-crafted items were more to my taste so I'll talk about them first. The knitted toys, which facially reminded me of Fred (from the Homepride ads of yesteryear-Remember them?) were so sweet and I would have bought the lot if I'd had the money with me, and some gorgeous crochet cushion covers in the next room along had my eye. Silverwood is amazing. It's an Aladdin's Cave (or a TARDIS), because it appears to be bigger inside than out. There are so many wonderful things here I cannot mention them all but I will say that there are so many delights that I managed to find an early Birthday present there too. Can't wait to get back.

On our way home from Norfolk to Leeds we stumbled across this tea room, from the outside it does look much more than garden shop. Once inside there’s and array of gifts and unique furniture some bric-à-brac too. We had a browse around. The tea...

Enjoyed this place when it was Yesteryear but have to say I like it even more now it has been updated with all new decor and owners. The food is just as good as before but a little more expensive. Well worth a visit.

Enjoyed brunch here, with some all day breakfasts. Good value for money. Staff were friendly and efficient. Lots to see in the surrounding shops.

A long story that isn't very interesting really... but suffice to say that we needed the staff at Silver Wood to go above and beyond on Saturday and they really did. So amazingly kind, helpful and patient- thank-you! The most enormous sandwiches were also delicious!

The tearoom has been freshly decorated to nice light colours making it feel alot brighter. Lots of outside seating available, including a marquee and arbours as well as 'normal' table and chairs. I enjoyed scrambled egg with 1 toast on the side instead of 2...

With easy access to the A17 via a roundabout with a sign, his was a great place to break a journey. A 40s themed cafe with period furniture and music it offered good cafe fare as well as more elaborate meals.

Saw this place advertised on the way to visit my husband’s Aunt in Long Sutton and thought though this may a place to take her out for lunch. We collected Aunt and returned here after a five minute drive from her home. Perfect, we all...

Lovely to return to the newly named tearooms within a bigger area, still with all the vintage memories to enjoy this special place for lunch or afternoon tea. Music coming from the jukebox sets the tone to create an experience we enjoy. Greeted and served...

For those that have been before, the tearoom has swapped rooms with rosemary flowers and antiques.(yes rosemary is still there so don't panic) . The new setting for the tearoom is delightful and very cosy. Currently the decor is Christmas (no surprise there) . The fake mantlepiece and hearth accompanied by 2 big soft chairs sets this room as 'home from home' atmosphere. The tables are adorned with beautiful Christmas place settings, and the spacing between is adequate if you don't want to talk privately.The range of cakes is plenty and they are selling the same range of large cakes as before. In fact the menu is pretty much the same. Although the waitresses have changed, so I am presuming the tearooms are under new management. But you won't be disappointed they are still lovely. The food is delightful. Good portions, and nice tasty food. A single pot of tea is massive .. Prices are still reasonable. So if you find yourself in the area, pop in you won't be disappointed.. And if you have any extra time then I would recommend perusing around the units which have a lovely array of products for sale, some of which are handmade.

we discovered these tearooms some time ago and have always remembered them as being very friendly. They are decorated in a lovely vintage style and their food,coffee and cakes are superb. They also have an interesting range of items from accessories and books to plants and antiques.This is not a huge place but nice to stop at on your way to and from Norfolk .

What a little gem of a find!!A garden centre ( of sorts) with a wide variety of stuff.What was the Sliverwood tea rooms is now called the Yesteryear tea room, it’s a trip back in time. Excellent service, lovely coffee, outstanding cakes, value for money and pleasant surroundings. We have been to a lot of tea rooms since moving to South Holland, this beats them all!Will definitely be back

We love this little tearoom & have to stop for lunch there each year when we travel to North Norfolk...bevthere again very soon with friends

Our first visit last week and we were very impressed, food was of good quality and cooked to perfection, very friendly staff, good price, will be using more in the future

We went as a family of 9 for Afternoon Tea at The Silverwood Tea Rooms on Saturday. What an amazing little place !The whole experience was second to none ,the food was delicious and plentiful with tea and coffee refills. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful .The decor was very quirky and impressive with a very warm welcoming feel to it all.I had never been before ,never even knew such a place existed but it's definitely on my list to return one day very soon.I would certainly recommend to anyone, well worth a visit.

I have been to this hidden-away gem several times now with various friends. All come away with a positive vibe. As well as a small selection of garden paraphernalia and plants, there is a stunning array of separate rooms with vintage stuff from clothing & bags to games, furniture and decorations. The tea shop is charming with Audrey Hepburn wallpaper, a genuine vintage working Wurlitzer! and pretty/delicate crockery. The afternoon tea is excellent, lunches are home-cooked and the breakfasts are tasty and hot. Excellent value for money. Great fun, unusual. I recommend if quirky and vintage is your thing!!

We stopped on our way home had some lovely chocolate cake and bread pudding took me back to when I was a child. Lovely staff. Inside garden centre. Worth a visit

My husband and I had a delicious afternoon tea in this tea room with excellent service and very helpful staff our visit was an extremely pleasant experience.

Was really nice, friendly staff, varied menu with lots of specials. Had home made soup and two of our party had jacket potatoes. Not rushed but really quick service. Will be making a return visit. Highly recommend

Went to the tea room on our way home. Vintage tea room with mis matched China. Scone was warm, always a nice touch. Strawberry jam and proper thick cream. Plus fresh strawberry. 50s and 60s music playing in the background created a nice atmosphere. We will definitely return to have different cake or afternoon tea.

Excellent service and a warm welcome at Silverwood. Tea and cakes in the afternoon a real treat. The scones the best we have found in a long time! Will be back.

We called today on our way back from Norwich. It was just before closing time. The service was great we all had coffee and we had carrot cake, chocolate cake and a scone they were all absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back to try some more of the beautiful cakes that were on display.

What a delightful setting and a great place for our late lunch. The food was delightful and the cakes were to die for. The staff were so friendly and helpful and very patient whilst we disagreed on who would get to have the last piece a particular cake ! We had a lovely chilled hour and a half in there and will definitely head back there in the near future.

Great place. Awesome cakes. Highly recomend. Great value. We cycled there today & were well looked after. Will be back.

I like to give everyone every place the benefit of the doubt. But this place was awful!

Was there with my daughter this afternoon, we ordered one "cream tea" £4.95 which included tea and scone etc. and then I asked if there was any gluten free option, was delighted when told there was a gluten free scone available, so we added one "cream tea" option with gluten free scone to the order. The tea was fine. When we were leaving I left my credit card with my daughter to pay the bill and she was charged £13.70 by the woman, she questioned this twice and each time was told that it was correct and that the gluten free scone cost "more" and that the tea was to be added to that price. The gluten free scone was being charged at £5.95 plus the tea at £2.80 so she paid it. My daughter only told me about this as we reached home so I called them to ask what on earth was going on and was told it was a mistake (how could this have been a mistake when it was questioned twice?)

What a lovely place, the food and the staff were first rate! The decor and music for the theme wonderfully.. it’s the kind of place you will visit time and time again, we certainly will be back!! a real jewel of a place plus the staff were awesome

Just enjoyed a fantastic full English. Home cooked and delicious. Coffee was good and the service was friendly.

Came at lunchtime for Sunday roast, don’t remember where I’ve had a better beef roast dinner in a restaurant, lovely home cooked vegetables and gorgeous gravy. Great service and child friendly and accommodating, couldn’t really fault it. Worth every penny.

We visit regularly and this place never disappoints. This time we booked afternoon tea for my great aunt who was eighty. A selection of sandwiches, coleslaw, potato salad and salad was fresh and tasty. Then we had orange and cranberry scones with cream and jam. Stollen, Christmas cake and mince pies. All served with all the tea we could drink. Friendly staff, cakes boxed up and a lovely atmosphere. What more could we have asked for.

Stopped on the way to kings lynn and had a very tasty cream tea served on a platter, loose leaf tea in a china teapot and china teacups. I'd have liked a pot of cream and a pot of jam.

We often break our trip to Norfolk with a cake and coffee here, although the menu offers breakfast, lunch and snacks. Vintage themed with a retro juke box playing 50's & 60's music in the background. Delightful and well worth calling in. There are also several inside units offering arts and craft, jewellery and garden items.

Mi marido trabaja en Norwich, que es de 231 millas lejos de casa. Cada vez que voy a Norwich para una mini vacaciones a darle un descanso de viajar a casa cada fin de semana, me pare en mi camino a casa en este lugar encantador. Me encanta todo, y toda la comida es de primera calidad. El chico que sirve (lo siento no recuerdo su nombre) es un profesional y muy agradable. Tuve la sopa y un sándwich de queso y té con crema y sonriente a la izquierda de nuevo. Espero que mi próximo viaje a Norwich cuando puedo entrar de nuevo en mi casa.

What a magnificent tearoom, we the "Men's Shed at Long Sutton " went to the tearoom for our planing meeting, we had a very welcoming from the ladies, the tea/coffee was freshly made and served, the decor needs to be seen, it is straight out of the middle of the last century, early pictures of very young pop stars Inc. Elvis etc. bone China,Wind up gramophone, candle stick phone, it needs to be seen, it's like having tea in a museum of the 1950s and before. I will definitely be going back with friends

Tal personal encantador y servicial. Nos sentamos fuera, ya que tenía el perro con nosotros, pero nos dijeron que si el clima no era muy bueno, podría haber tenido nuestro café y deliciosos pasteles en el centro de jardín. (No se admiten perros, comprensiblemente, las habitaciones de té). En la parte trasera del jardín son los jardines más hermoso, donde pudimos caminar a nuestro antojo, de nuevo perros. Sin duda lo recomendaría.

Disfrutamos de nuestra visita. Disfrutamos de pasteles y buena atención con personal encantador y amable. Temática Vintage al lado de jardín centro y centro de artesanía

Llevé a mi hija y mi nieta para un regalo precioso - mañana. Les encantó la sección de artesanías y centro de jardín y como entramos a la vintage tes mi nieta exclamó una enorme 'wow! '. El personal era muy amable y servicial con mi dieta sin gluten y lácteos (gratis) y la comida era deliciosa. Nos lo pasamos de maravilla y sin duda volveremos.

Today , to celebrate my partners bathday , we wandered to this extraordinary place . A full afternoon tea , complete with adjustments , cheerfully served , and of superb quality . Home baked cakes , spectacular sandwiches and all the good things . Apparently the Sunday lunches are becoming reputable , I'll see next Sunday , just to check you understand . Go there , relax in the atmosphere , eat , drink be creative , but above all enjoy .

Fabulous tearoom with great homemade food and cakes - an oasis from usual motorway food - will call again nxt trip this way

In need of a decent coffee on long, tedious journey from Newark to Ipswich pulled off the road. We weren't disappointed. Only wanted a coffee, which was very nice, not a rip off either. Nothing else was needed but cakes looked so nice we had to indulge. Friendly staff too. Would definitely make a point of stopping here again!Craft shop had some interesting things too, very creative.

Called here for tea & cakes on our way to North Norfolk. Beautiful home made cakes, very pleasant staff. Also, lots of interesting reasonably priced jewelry, items for the home etc. Will not hesitate to call whenever in the area. Don't miss it, it's a hidden gem, just a few yards off the A17, there is a brown sign.

used to use the old Silverwood building but this is so much nicer, and relaxed, and the food is to die for.

Had day out with a friend trawling a selection of garden centres and plant nurseries in the area. Based on the reviews we had pre-chosen Silverwood for our lunch. We were not disappointed: the food was excellent, very reasonably priced, and the staff friendly (we felt like 'regulars' on our first visit). Friend said her coffee was one of the best she has had (praise indeed!), I had Earl Grey tea - loose leaf, served in a pot with bone china cup and a tea strainer provided. The decor made the place feel cosy and comfortable. The nostalgia element didn't seem overdone or intrusive. We do not live that close by, but would definitely return when we can. Had a look round the craft and antiques area and there was some lovely stuff plus definite bargains to be had. Other places may have a better plant selection (and this wasn't bad) but this was tops for the food and service.

Looking for somewhere for a cup of tea and not wanting a 'Starbucks' type experience, we pulled off the A17 on a whim. We weren't disappointed. The décor was a step back to the '50's - all floral chintz - and Sinatra was playing (followed by other singers from the time). We ordered tea and cake from a really friendly and polite gentleman/waiter. When it came, the tea was in a pot - real leaf tea, not teabags - and there were china cups and saucers. Milk was in a jug and sugar in a sugar bowl with the white cotton crocheted cover. It all took me right back to tea with my grannie. The cake? What can I say about the cake? We both chose cherry & date. An excellent choice. It was moist, flavoursome and full of fruit. I could go on...What a find - if ever we are that way again we will definitely be calling in!

We went today for lunch first experience, and would like to say the food and service was excellent. The tearoom is beautifully decorated and has a very relaxing ambience. The staff were all very helpful and food beautifully presented. I would recommend a trip here

Lovely service, lovely place, lovely food! Afternoon tea was brilliant value and there was enough to take some home with us!

We booked the little room here for Mum's 90th party and they did her proud!!! The buffet was fresh, tasty and there was plenty of it...a wonderful selection of finger foods. The staff here are just wonderful...nothing is too much trouble. For Mum the WW2 memorabilia and decorations were perfect....she positively glowed all the time we were her. Every guest commented on how wonderful the food and room were. Diane and her staff deserve a medal...could not ave been bettered in a posh hotel! Thank you girls.

Called on our way to King's Lynn for a coffee break. The actual tearoom is very nice and the coffee and cake great. However, the carpark/entrance could put you off. Don't let it as it is worth the stop.Vintage isn't my thing but it is all attractive, very clean and warm!Sorry, didn't look at a menu for vegan or gluten free.

Joined the family here today for afternoon tea ,not being a tea/ cake person. I was hoping that my preconceptions were not met The tearoom is in an eclectic mix of olde worlde meets retro touches with table ware and decor fitting the theme.We were a table of 6 and once seated and the giant teapot filled and placed on the table the procession of tiered cake stands ladened with home bakes and deeply filled sandwiches,then along came some side dishes of mixed salads to accompany On arriving my wife mentioned that i hadn't the sweetest tooth and some warm sausage rolls were added to the already ladened table so thank you ladies for that (very much appreciated)All of the sandwiches were deeply filled and well seasoned and lovely squishy bread.Cakes and bakes were excellent and between all of us we managed to defeat all but two of themSumming up An excellent tea prepared with love and passion and in a time warp that only adds to the occasion Well done All your efforts and passions shine through in the delicious food Chef mark

Spent a wonderful couple of hours here today both having lunch, chatting and looking around the crafts etc. It was like a home from home and the food was really good. piping hot, tasty, generous and reasonably priced. Conversation with regulars made lunch even more enjoyable and the lovely staff could not have been nicer. There are so many lovely crafts for sale, jewellery etc. Also there is a garden centre. What more could you ask for. Can't wait to go back..maybe tomorrow.

Stopped off for lunch on the way to Norfolk. We had a bowl of the most delicious broccoli and Stilton soup,we had ever tasted! The lime and coconut cake was delicious too. A lovely lunch in delightful surroundings. The staff were very attentive and we loved the quirky vintage feel of the place.

We come over every sat morning for brekkie I'm on slimmers world and they do me a slimmer world fry up so I don't go off plan the foods alway good and the ladies who look after us are brilliant there alway friendly and polite and we've got to know them a really loverly place friendly and also the cakes are to die for

Myself and three friends had Cream Tea in the Caravan. It's a new addition to the cafe and a fantastic novel treat, we all really loved it! The tea itself was delicious and quite substantial, we struggled to finish it. The caravan is beautifully decorated and presented, it really is a 'little gem'.I can't wait to go back with any excuse, birthday, anniversary treat for relatives or just want a bite to eat with girlfriend's for lunch, it's well worth it!Added bonus,.. a little shopping and walk around the garden, very relaxing if you need to de-stress

The Silverwood is a mixture of crafts, nursery and tea room. The tea room offered bone china tea service and a nice cup of tea. Cake was ok but a little dry. The room decoration was also a little tired.

This is a lovely little tea room - so much better than the bland cafe stops on the main road. Quirky decor, an excellent choice of food with friendly service at reasonable prices. We would definitely make a point of going again when on this route.

We stopped in this morning on the way to Norfolk for what might be termed 'a comfort break' and a cup of tea having Googled 'garden centres near you' whilst on the A17.I must admit I was expecting a bigger garden centre type business than it was and to be honest if it wasn't Hobson's choice we would have driven away again when we saw the outside. Oh I am SO glad we didn't.We were a bit early (10 mins) so the tea room wasn't quite open but the staff were so friendly and opened up for us. The tea room is decorated with a quirky retro 1950s feel, flowery tablecloths, Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn wallpaper, a jukebox with 50's music; and the china teapots and crockery are a wonderful mixture of patterns.We only had tea and toast but the tea was proper, leaf tea with a beautiful flavour and the toast was thick and hot with plenty of butter, and preserve in a dish rather than a little plastic tub. I wish we had had time to stay for a meal as there were some tempting choices. Free wifi is offered with the password posted up on the wall so you don't even have to ask for it.The service was friendly and quick and whilst we were there a number of locals, or at least repeat visitors, also came in so it has a good local reputation.I am glad we have found this well-hidden little gem, we will definitely visit again.ps The toilets were lovely too!

What a fantastic and enjoyable outing. We took my 90 year old mum here for as part of a day out. This was one of the best little tearooms I have been in for a very long time.pleasant staff who gave us the time of day. No queuing like in many places.The atmosphere was superb, taking one back to the late 50's early 60's. Anyone will enjoy such a little bit of time travel. There was also a good selection of cakes and pastries and a wide variety of choice of tea..Trust me this is a must visit place. Take your time here and enjoy. It is well worth the small diversion from the main road, A17.

Charming theme and array of props to admire ,mum reminiscent about what her own house was like when she was a child.lovely welcome and great food!reasonable prices and a calm atmosphere , feeling of nostalgia!

Been meaning to visit this beautiful tea rooms for a couple of years! Well we did today and wasn't disappointed. Loved all the little touches from old fashioned table ware to the lovely tea pots, cups and saucers and sugar tongs! Cakes to die for.Only criticism is the onsite shops don't offer much :( thought there was more. If you want a trip down memory lane then this is a must.

Lovely warm scones and cream love the little touches, nice crockery and cutlery just like being at my Nans

The Best!Many Thanks to Donna who helped me arranged the tea during the week.Thank you to Sharon and Diana for looking after us.Linda......you have a great team.Friendly and welcoming....nothing was too much trouble.Well worth a visit.Planning and looking forward to next outing.Sandwiches, scones and cakes delicious.

On our way home from a classic motorcycle camp weekend we were looking for some place for a break, tea and a little sustenance. Too late we spotted the brown sign on a traffic island near Little Sutton on the A17, decided to find someplace to turn our car & trailer to go back. Thank goodness we did for we would have missed a treat. A super tea shop within a garden and crafts centre. Marie really enjoyed her soup, my granary bread sandwich was stuffed with with thickly cut (as was the bread) ham, real ham accompanied with a nice side salad. All washed down with real tea.Oh and no paper serviettes, real cloth in this uniquely styled establishment.A big thank you to the ladies who looked after us so well :)

Yes it's quite nice. Nice cakes. We always enjoy the soup and sandwiches. Just one point, can we please order from the table, it's probably me but the order before you sit down is a tad frustrating. However it might be to do with a menu that changes?

Lovely friendly people. Food was fresh and tasty and we finished with a nice piece of homemade cake. Would recommend and return

It's not fine dining; it's not silver service but if you're looking for an unusual place ( it's tucked away in a corner of a Fenland garden centre) then you really should try it .It's my brothers favourite place for breakfast & we had a really good wholesome lunch there with my 88 year old Mum . We had a great time .The decorations are well done & the food is in keeping with the surroundings - but be warned the portions are huge & as befits the era the tearoom evokes, the menu plain & simple . But it works .Should you find yourself passing by on the edge of the Fens you won't regret stopping off for a trip down memory lane.

Very relaxed atmosphere, lovely food, very friendly and efficient service. I visit regularly and never been disappointed.

Lively vintage tearoom with very helpful pleasant staff. Nothing too much trouble. Good small garden centre very well priced.

Stopped here on the way across to Norfolk. It was 11.30 and very quiet with just two other customers when we arrived. We had coffee and tea cakes.The coffee was a choice of latte or cafetière and we had the cafetière It was hot if a little weak for our taste. The tea cake was hot with ample butterService was quick and friendly. This cafe is in a garden centre which has 'diversified' and sells lots of craft, old things. The cafe has an old theme with lots of pictures of Marilyn Monroe. A good place to stop on the A17.

Staff helpful, food hot and fresh, good variety of jacket potato fillings and baguettes, good variety of teas and coffees. Lovely atmosphere, shame it isn't on a bus route from kings lynn or we would be going there more often!

This is a lovely cafe based in a rather backwater garden centre.There is a lot of attention to detail, which makes it a pleasant and unusual experience. The cakes and sandwiches are lovely, and there is proper loose-leaf tea. They also serve hot meals and snacks.The only thing that I don't like is that you have to place your order at the counter, before taking a seat..

A charming quirky tearoom with all the feeling of homecooking. Even the crockery is China vintage style....Nice to visit somewhere where it's not fast food style.... If you go away hungry from here it's your fault......!Spot on...... Mark B

I walked into the tearoom at 2.00 pm today, 22nd October, sat at a table and waited to be given a menu and then place my order. The waitress came into the room on several occasions bringing out food to other customers and cleaning tables. She never once made eye contact and after 20/25 minutes I walked out. At no time was anything said to me, I was total ignored. How do these people hope to survive giving such appalling service?

Came here for lunch and wow, the food was delicious. Pretty sure it's home made and all fresh, it certainly tasted like it...better than the restaurant in town in fact.We will certainly be back.Love this place, the staff are friendly and the decor quaint.

decided to try here for lunch based on reviews for a friends birthday when we arrived we waited to be seated but was told we needed to order first from the chalk board inside the door which was also being viewed by a family as well so was a bit chaotic limited choices but we ordered and went off to choose a table luckily by an open door as it was really hot inside, nice to be served drinks in China cups much nicer than chunky mugs,Meals arrived also on China so hot from the microwave you could burn yourself not good for my jacket and salad, likewise the apple pie and ice cream that followed was so hot the ice cream had totally melted if they need to micro everything why not transfer the pie to a cold dish after heating ?Surrounding's are quirky and really interesting but food was dissapointing

Visited the tea room for the first time today with my mum and grandmother. It is a very warm and welcoming atmosphere and all the staff are incredibly helpful!we had a cup of tea and fresh fruit scone, which we will be back again for. they have gluten free options too that they are also expanding on which is fab for us as some of our family members are gluten free. they also mentioned that if we ring ahead and let them know we are coming, they will let us know what is on the menu and if it is or can be made gluten free!

Have been several times but the last time we found that the main tea rooms had been closed. We tried the restaurant that was opened but not as good. food was poor and the vintage look was a bit messy

The SIlverwood Tearooms and Restaurant is now closed as the owner of the restaurant has moved onto new premises, therefore the owners of Silverwood Centre have opened the "A Time To Remember Vintage Tearooms" The new tearooms can also be found on Trip Advisor so you are invited to leave your review under "A Time To Remember Vintage Tearooms".Thank you.

Sunday lunch:Great value, large variety of beautifully cooked vegetables, tasty meats. We don't like their Yorkshire puds. They're too heavy and stodgy but otherwise, perfect. Friendly service and lovely atmosphere. Weekdays:Fab meals, always excellent whatever we have. Fantastic desserts.
