Absolutely terrible, don't waste your time and money, very overpriced for the quality. I purchased a breakfast tea and a lemon drizzle slice the tea was incredibly unflavoured and the lemon drizzle slice was dry and partially stale. Wouldn't recommend service was slow too.

We are lucky enough to have been given some NT vouchers as a present. We love exploring NT properties and trying out the cafes. Speke Hall cafe knocks spots off other North West NT eateries. Great choice of hot and cold food. We had a lovely bowl of Scouse. We'll worth the trip from Manchester. Friendly staff and great value for money. Thanks

Pedimos comida como una fiesta de 6. Cuando se trataba de mi pedido, había una opción de solo 3 platos principales, helados, pasteles y barras de chocolate. Debido a ciertas restricciones dietéticas, pregunté a un miembro del personal del mostrador si podía combinar algunos artículos para hacer una comida que pudiera comer como la mayoría de los alimentos que no podía comer. Tenían salchichas y puré y pregunté si podía tener solo las salchichas. La señora detrás del mostrador fue grosera y me dijo que no, ya que "se perdería en una venta de comida completa", así que le dije que era médica. A lo que ella respondió en voz alta frente a toda la fila detrás de mí. . . . “¿Por qué no tienes gluten? "Estaba realmente avergonzado y respondí que era personal. Entonces ella dijo que no puedo venderte lo que quieres. Le expliqué que había una selección tan limitada de alimentos y que no podía comer nada y pasaría hambre. Ella respondió "sí, lo harás! ¡Y se mudó para servir a la familia detrás de mí! ! ! Estaba avergonzado y horrorizado por tal falta de conciencia, respeto y grosería general. Así que pagué por el resto de nuestra fiesta para comer y me senté allí sin comida. ¡Esto no debería permitírsele a nadie más! ¡Enojado NO es la palabra!

It was a glorious sunny day when we visited Speke Hall - my birthday. We had lunch which was nice but we had a while to wait as it was crowded it being the school holidays. There was a good selection of meals which were of an average price for this establishment. After looking around the Hall we went back for a pot of tea and a cake.

Stopped in here for drinks after walking round the hall. The cakes looked lovely. We were served promptly and enjoyed our drinks in the outside courtyard which was very pleasant

Convenient it might be, but not all that good, Several of the advertised items were no longer available, and what was being served was not particularly appealing. Maybe in the light of other reviews we were unlucky, but it was expensive for what we had.

Good fresh food and filling . Big choice . Hot meals before 2.30pm sandwiches etc . Expensive as all National Trust places are . Maybe take a picnic.

The restaurant was closing early for 'till maintenance' on the day we visited. We arrived about an hour and a half before the early closing to be offered a very limited choice of food. No baked potatoes, no sandwiches. Two of us chose scouse, one venison lasagne and one a ham salad. The scouse was inedible owing to the fact that someone seemed to have emptied the pepper grinder into it. The salad had some lovely ham slices but the salad consisted of coleslaw and some lettuce! The venison lasagne was passable. This is not the first time we have visited and we were unimpressed the previous occasion but assumed we had hit it on a bad day. I think they must have many bad days.

Reasonable prices (and not reasonable by NT standards but by any standards), good selection of tea, cakes, light snacks, soups etc. Really good selection of Gluten free produce was appreciated as two of our party are coliaecs. Friendly staff and...Oh and it's not always a given the cuppa was really nice!

After visiting the house and grounds at Speke Hall, the tea rooms are lovely just to sit quietly and enjoy the view. The weather was perfect, cold but sunny so we sat outside and enjoyed the fresh air. The food was nice and the staff very friendly and helpful too.

Unfortunately the house wasnt open when we came so i was glad we are members who didnt pay the entery fee. But we had a short stay looked round the shop and had a coffee some wet nelly which was nice. The staff were friendly the coffee was nice including the wet nelly. Shame tge house was closed but will come back for another visit when the weather is warmer. Might i suggest that you sell some of your fresh veg etc as i would purchase veg bread etc. Some homes do sell their produce Castle Howard for one which i visit regularly as its only down the road from me love tgeir bread cheese etc

This is nice but expensive for what they serve. Best bet is to try the soup with a bread roll, at least it fills you up but other than that you will find the prices over the top.

Speke Hall tea room is such a delightful place, despite it being a bank holiday weekend we were able to have a relaxed light snack. Staff were first class. Well done NT

Visited with 3 kids who all ordered baked potatoes which were overpriced as they were bunged in the microwave with cheap red cheese on top. Staff were rude, I asked for a flat white and the girl smirked and said cappuccino was the same like I am an idiot! Speke hall itself is lovely but I will be taking my own picnic next time

This cafe occupies a quaint half-timbered outbuilding on the edge of the garden at Speke Hall. For simple food and a drink it's an alternative to the rather busy and noisy Home Farm restaurant. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy my time here very much. Firstly it was manned by one solitary waiter on a bank holiday Saturday. I had to wait while he fastidiously prepared six cappucinos. Ther tables are all rather cramped and I had to clear debris from mine before settling down to my tea and a Bakewell slice on an uncomfortably saggy chair. National Trust cafes seem to set great store by their cakes and even have recipe cards on the tables. On the evidence of this Bakewell slice they could do better.

I'm sorry to say this looked pretty chaotic on our visit and I think I'm being kind giving three stars but the potential is there so I don't want to be too harsh. Basically I think they were short staffed had no one realised that the children were off for Easter and that as a result they would be busy. The food looked good and certainly what we had affirmed this. Unfortunately the queue was quite long and not moving fast and if you picked up a hot soup or stew the chances are that by the time you came to pay for it, it would no longer be hot. Dirty dishes everywhere although customers were doing their best to clear up after themselves. Some of the staff seemed to be in panic and although we gave our order to one lady it never materialised and we had to then repeat it with another lady. As I said previously the potential is there if only they had the staff to deliver the service

Stopped in after a fun afternoon with my granddaughter. Beautiful Autumn afternoon sitting outside watching a little robin hop along picking up crumbs from nearby. That's the setting. The tea and cake was delicious and I recommend the lemon drizzle. Mouths watering thinking of it. Prices are not bad.

This cafe is in an old stable block next to Speke Hall itself. It is only small and so doesn't have the selection of items you may want but has enough choice to please most I would say. However the main cafe is only a short walk away if not. There is a small outdoor seating area at the back too. The staff at Speke Hall, some are volunteers, are always helpful and very friendly. Well worth stopping off to put your feet up with a brew!

Self service but with helpful and generous staff behind the counter offering the usual cakes, scones and teas and coffees but also some local specialties. The scouse was tasty, warming, substantial and came with a recipe for those wanting to recreate it at home.

No complaints about the prices and food and drinks ...... only it is a tad on the small size and fills up very quickly so my tip is if its full to the brim then to head back to the large restaurant at the entrance block ...... lots of tables and a much wider choice of eats and drinks.

I have often criticised National Trust restaurants but this one is much better than most. We only had a morning coffee but it was excellent and, if we had wanted it, there was a great choice of hot and cold meals, cakes etc.. The whole layout of the restaurant, including the adjacent courtyard is very good, light and airy. The counter service was friendly and efficient.

Me and my family made the mistake of going in to this tea room. Bought hot drinks for us "grown ups" and cold drinks for our 2 children. We got stared at by 2 members of staff the whole time we were in there. Also can't tolerate people who smoke and then serve food and drinks. Bleurgh.

We've been back to Speke hall a few times recently since early May and on only one of those times had the pleasure of being able to use the stable tea room. It only opens at weekends which is such a shame. This tea room was converted from what must have been old stables and the conversion is sympathetic and cosy. It is a pity that the larger cafe isn't similarly decorated.
