The Strawberry Teapot Tearoom & Cakery in Babergh

What a wonderful find this little shop is. This provider offers gluten free to the highest standard since the owners daughter is a coeliac. Therefore, you are able to spoil yourself with their afternoon tea. The sandwiches, scones and cakes were excellent and we had to take away doggy boxes as we could not finish the generous three tiers of delight. Proper tea served as in actual tea leaves and strainers. At their reasonable price, spoil yourself and meet this delightful, professional mother and daughter team.

We had a lovely lunch here today, freshly cooked and absolutely delicious. The staff are so efficient and cheerful, which gives the whole café such a nice atmosphere. Thanks so much, a wonderful find!

Lovely food very fresh and hot. Plentyful. Lovely atmosphere so clean and nice decor. Such friendly efficient lovely staff.

Lovely little tea room with such happy staff that can’t do more to make your visit special. Our afternoon cream tea was delicious, the cakes were amazing. Great idea for birthday treats as they do vouchers. Thoroughly recommend it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a lovely find this place was , the waffles were delicious, the scones are a good size and so yummy staff very friendly and helpful to individuals needs

Really Enjoyed our afternoon tea at the strawberry teapot in Sudbury. Staff were lovely, loved the vintage world war vibe in the café and all the old photos and historic items. The food was lovely and fresh, I particularly adored the hummus and red onion sandwiches, so tasty! and the bread was lovely and fresh which is great as a lot of places leave the bread standing for afternoon tea's out for ages and by the time you get them, they taste stale but not here! The cakes were lovely and so fresh, really yummy, great selection and there was too much for us to eat so we took the rest of the cake home in a box! will definitely come again, the price of £16 per person for a afternoon tea is also great and the quality was better then some hotels where you pay £20 plus for afternoon tea. the only thing i would like is to be able to ask for a scone without raisins in as a option but still yummy scone so thankyou!

To the wonderful owner and staff at Strawberry Teapot, My story starts with a trip planned to this cafe with my mum for her birthday, and will hopefully help to reassure other wheelchair/powerchair-reliant customers :) Accessibility: The owner had a conversation with us to tell us about their accessibility (there is a step at the front of the store, but access to the outdoor seating behind the cafe without steps). - I use a powerchair, which can't, unfortunately, be lifted up with the help of others, but other smaller wheelchairs will still be able to be lifted up past the step on the front door. Despite this powerchair hurdle, we sat outdoors, which was beautifully arranged with summer plants. Food Allergies/ Dietary requirements: My family is a mix of vegetarian, vegan, and meat-eater people, which was no problem at all to the staff at the Strawberry Teapot! We had booked in for an afternoon tea and were served three separate food servings (a three-tier cake stand per person), filled with sandwiches, cake, scones, and biscuits. These were delectable, and we were even allowed to take the cakes we didn't eat home with us (they were too good to leave behind!). Overall, we had an absolutely wonderful time and will not hesitate to book again. If I could, I would fetch fresh scones every weekend (they were THAT good). Thank you to all the staff there that helped to make the afternoon tea special, you are all wonderful people, and I have no doubt that you will make every other customer's experience just as wonderful. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Popped in quite late in the day for lunch for four after a long walk. Beryl the dog was given a very warm welcome and was offered snacks straightaway. Lovely personal service by friendly chatty staff. We ordered sandwiches and hot drinks, which came with a choice of plant milks. Although we stayed long after the shop should have closed, we were never made to feel rushed. Thank you for a lovely afternoon, and a special thanks from Beryl for the bacon x

Took my mum here for Mother’s Day afternoon tea and we had a really lovely time! The food was so nice and plenty of it - we took a couple of our cakes home with us as we were too stuffed to eat it all in one go! Extra sandwiches and top-ups of tea and Prosecco were offered, and there was such a lovely extra gift included for my mum that was a lot more than we were expecting! Finally and most importantly for us they were great with catering for a couple of food allergies and intolerances we have and it was no problem at all. Thank you!!

What a find! My daughter has coeliac disease and eating out can be a nightmare as so few places grasp the issues of cross contamination. Not here! Every measure has been thought of including separate milk frothers, toasters etc. No need to interrogate the staff or feel ‘difficult’. And everything was absolutely delicious from the tea to the beautiful moist cakes (no dry gf offerings here!). We will be back - often!

What a lovely cafe , good food and reasonably priced , the waffles with strawberry, banana and yoghurt are delicious We had panini as well and a children's plate which was enjoyed . Very friendly place , definitely worth a visit

We were greeted by Amanda and ordered afternoon tea for two. The tea pot was massive and contained loose tea for which a strainer was provided. The tea remained very hot for at least another hour. We each had 4 cups, with approximately a quarter of the tea pot remaining. A selection of ham, cheese, egg mayonnaise freshly made sandwiches served on white and granary bread (some with Branson pickle) and oven baked crisps were quickly consumed, hence the empty bottom plate shown! Followed by perfect chocolate brownies, delicious millionaires shortbread (oh, that fudge filling...) strawberry and vanilla sponge, heart shaped soft biscuits, fresh strawberries, huge sultana scones, clotted cream and strawberry jam. A simply divine, relaxing afternoon experience. The tea shop is a delight, with nostalgic music and varied items of interest on display. An impressive display of alternative in-house made cakes set the scene, indeed whilst we dined, freshly baked cakes were being prepared.

This small Tearoom tucked into Friars Street is a delightful experience. The staff are very friendly and greet you with a warm welcome. Breakfasts are served until 11 am including five Vegetarian / Gluten options. As well as cakes, tasty scones and chutneys there is a good selection of lunchtime snacks including the mushrooms - yum. The Strawberry Teapot specialises in Gluten Free Baking

Beautifully presented outside catering for a family celebration the choice of sandwiches was exceptional as was the cakes scones etc couldn’t fault anything & would have no hesitation of recommending Amanda’s tea shop. We had so many compliments on the day . Thanking you for making making our day so special

Delicious lunch, lovely staff! Fresh cakes made daily. Loved the ambience and music! Definitely stop in if in the area.

Attentive and friendly staff. Lovely gluten-free food came with reassurances about their measures to avoid cc. I had a sandwich with salad, coleslaw and crisps. Lovely gf dressing. Cappuccino served in a pretty cup.

We were given a Christmas present voucher and as we were staying in Sudbury we found this tearoom was offering afternoon teas. Booked only a week before and the lady was very accommodating as I wanted a late booking. She gave us 3:39 but said...

Lovely afternoon tea with my daughter today at the strawberry teapot, beautiful sandwiches and delicious cakes and scones topped off with a tasty pot of tea

A lovely tea room - a lovely atmosphere with thoughtful decor and music. Despite being busy our table and menu were cleaned thoroughly before we sat down. The food was excellent - sandwiches really well filled and a lovely pot of tea. Highly recommended.

Retro 1940s themed, this is a very nice Tea-room, full of character. The food was very good, reasonably priced and the staff were very friendly.

Had a delicious cream tea here today with my friend. Very friendly service. Loved the tearoom, spotlessly clean and lots of 40's memorabilia. Will be going there again.

Lovely tearoom, fantastic food and great service. We had the breakfast scone which was lovely. Cakes looked so nice we had a slice to go. Will be visiting again.

We booked a special afternoon tea for 3. It did not dissappoint. The atmosphere is wonderful, really 1940's. Food was excellent, well prepared and presented. Covid restrictions are safely covered, we felt very safe. We will be back.

We found this delightful café via Google Maps. We were not disappointed. Good atmosphere, good service, good food. The 1940's design delighted us also. The young staff friendly and efficient. If in the area this is one place not to be missed.

Called in for lunch, what a treat, the best cheese scone I have tasted, served with brie/camembert and a beautiful chutney. To wash it all down we had a cafetiere of coffee and again it was really good. Love the ambience of this tea shop...

Brilliant little place for lunch and especially good if you’re gluten-free - as all the cakes are gluten-free. Lovely place and great service.

Two afternoon teas - delicious , staff efficient and friendly, great ambiance. This was our 3rd visit - [ we live 90 minutes drive away] - hopefully we will be in the area and be able to come back.

Lovely atmospheric retro cafe. Had a light lunch with tea, all very nice. Good service. Support cafes like this as they make a welcome change from the national type chains

Not the cream tea experience we expected. Certainly not worth the full price of £34. Couldn't quite work out the taste of the cakes. One tasted of ginger yuk one a fudge coffee taste and one plain sponge ? All overpowered by the taste of...

Went for lunch with my missus, mum and 1 year old son, great food, great service and good price. Quaint decor from 1940 is interesting. Mushrooms in the breakfast are amazing. Next time you think about McDonald's try here.

We enjoyed afternoon tea at this tearoom. It was a present for my birthday. The service was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. The lady that served us was lovely. Food was great. Highly recommended.

Visited this beautiful little place in Sudbury on a Groupon voucher for afternoon tea. Oh my word, you better go hungry. The scones are huge, the cakes home made and likewise huge, had to ask for a bag to take some home. Worth every penny...

Had breakfast here this week and it was lovely! Lovely coffee. Lovely selection on the menu and well priced. The cakes looked fantastic and were made fresh that day. Definitely coming back.
