The Tea Room in Allerdale

Situated in a lovely little village, this shop and tearoom are in an idyllic setting. When looking at previous reviews I noticed that the most recent was from 2019, and wondered if the tearoom is still open. On a Tuesday in November it wasn’t, and as the “tearoom closed” sign said just that, I don’t know if they run limited hours or days in the off-season or if the tearoom is permanently closed. I would certainly suggest that you make a phone call in advance of any proposed visit.

We’ve been here before on previous visits to the area and were keen to come again. It’s nothing fancy or pretentious just friendly service and delicious food. Always a good choice of cakes and tray bakes. We also had lunch here one day after a walk. The cheese scones are among the nicest I’ve ever had. Would certainly recommend it

What a little gem of a place. Off the beaten track with three little shops surrounding cafe. Toilets are provided . Not seen disabled toilet as sat outside in garden area. Wheelchair accessible. Would recommend cream scone and what I call proper tea . Dog friendly. Staff are friendly and helpful. Worth a visit

Hesket Newmarket is about as far off the beaten track as you can get and have a post office. Whilst I posted urgent keys for next day delivery I bought local beer, local apple juice, gluten free cake and soup. We could have eaten in and the place was spotless but we did not have time. The gluten free Ginger Bread was moist and fresh. The soup was really good. The ladies who served me were lovely. What is not to like. Support our Post Offices.

We arrived at the perfect time on a Saturday morning and the scones were just out the oven. The aroma greeting us told us straight away. We ordered 2 scones (jam and cream!) and 2 coffees. They were simply the best scones we have had for ages and superb coffee too. In fact if there's 2 or more of you, the cream serving is so generous that I suggest only 1 of you order with cream. Perfect start to our day away in north Cumbria. Definitely worth a visit.

wonderful homemade scones excellent warm service very comfortable chairs prompt service very friendly staff this is one of my favourite places

Beautiful village centred around the village green and market cross. Tranquil surroundings. The tea room is clean and lovely pleasant staff. Shop attached which has a range of goods also. Had coffee, wife had a cheese scone also which was superb. We were there around 12.30 and the smell of baking was gorgeous. This is one of those places you should not miss.

Really lovely people running a great local shop and tea room. Go and enjoy. Nothing too much trouble. Worth a stop for a paper and a coffee.

We knew of this little tearoom from previous visits, so were able to make it a lunch stop during a lengthy walk. Straightforward but tasty sandwiches and tea set us up for the return walk. Not open on Sundays.

Awesome x very welcome in rural location and very fresh indeed . Would recommend for sure and little river close to cool down

My husband and I called in for a scone and coffee after our walk and it was very pleasant. It is just a small place, part of the local shop / post office, but the bakes are all home made and very delicious!! I had a plain scone and my husband had a fruit scone, both equally delicious 😋

We had intended to go to the pub at Hesket Newmarket but it was closed. A local pointed us in the direction of the tea shop so we pooped in for a cuppa and a sandwich. The staff were lovely as were the sandwiches, coffee was fine too. Its only a small place attached to the village shop/post office but so glad we found it as we had travelled quite a distance, shame about the pub being closed though.

Quick service especially as the Tour Of Britain was passing through.A very pleasant village typical of the Cumbrian landscape architect In JM

Shop, Post Office, Tea Room - a vibrant hub of this small community. Great sandwich here - local ham is lovely. A really good please to rest your weary bones and have a nice cup of tea and a snack.

While our 1 day stay in Hesket Newmarket we also visited the little Tearoom and had a light snack there. What can I say....the sandwiches where made fresh by a friendly lady, there was a good chutney on the cheese and a small salat and bowl of crisps on the side.... I love the thought that ppl living together in such a small community work together and do something for each other and I really appreciate the existence of shops n Tearooms like this one ... Go on with your good work!

Vi este lugar cuando de camino a otro lugar y paramos para comer algo rápido. Rollos de tocino estaban bien, pero lo que me sorprendió fue que en el menú VI "zumo de naranja recién exprimido" que yo específicamente ordenados y ¡presto de larga duración do se sirve, si no había ningún luego contar y que puede elegir otra cosa.
