This cafe is up towards Graham Place from the main street. We enjoyed soup, toasties, coffees and two slices of a deliciously moist chocolate cake before setting off for the St Margaret's Hope ferry. It was very relaxed with a friendly atmosphere, with local artwork on the walls, some for sale. Service was excellent and we would recommend this as somewhere to eat after visiting the town's excellent museum.

I visited the Tea room this summer and asked if the Lemon Meringue cake was on the menu. I had it last year and it was delicious! Not only did I have it baked to order but I bought the whole cake and got it home to the New Forest! I froze it and shared it with family and friends and they all agreed it was the best lemon meringue cake ever! Thank you so much and see you again next year.

Another nice little tea room which serves tea/coffee and cake for those thirsty travellers around the island. Stromness is a delightful place and well worth a visit. Lovely little streets, unspoilt by time. One of my favourite places in the Orkney islands.

Had coffee and scones which were delicious. However very disappointed to see all but one of the staff preparing food wearing no apron or protective clothing. One then took a black bag of rubbish out and came back and handled food again without washing their hands

The decor of this cafe is quirky and art work on the wall is very nice to look at.Appart from the art this place is unfortunately a complete disappointment.Firstly The food is extremely expensive. How on earth they can justify charging nearly £7 for a corination chicken panni is behond me.The cake we had was meant to have white chocolate frosting but it was much closer to butter icing which wasnt great. Strawberry milkshake was warm and definitely a powder one. It's just really lazy not to use cold milk and ice cream like most places do.So there you have it deffintley against the grain compared to other reviews which could just boil down to a off day, but be wary of prices as other places are cheaper!

Stopped in on a dreich day to sunny smiles and a great soup and sandwich. The day we were in the soup was spicy bean, a thick, hearty delight to warm us on a blustery afternoon. I chose a cheese toastie which was highly recommended....just like Mom used to make! The coffee was made properly but after all that I just didn’t have room for dessert.

On a wet day in Stromness this little café was just what we were looking for -and not really expecting to find. The Tearoom looks like it's someone's front room, but the atmosphere was homely too. The staff were helpful and the food looked good; hot soup and other options were available but we only really wanted a good cuppa. Actually we opted for a cream tea and that was really good value.

a welcome and quirky find for food in Stormness, Fast service when they were really really busy, somewhat chaotic way to order and pay, everyone queuing at the same point in crowded space. Friendly. Hearty atmosphere. Can sit outside or in. Nice tea, Sandwiches ok,. Cakes looked amazing and genuinely homemade, there, didn't have time to try one. Appreciate how busy they are in tourist season. Independent cafes knock spots of the chains, but felt the place just a tiny spot of something more - in my opinion - a dash of TLC or something.

Had afternoon tea here, the Tearoom is tucked away up a little alley, inside its warm and cozy, has a vintage feel. The menu is simple with an emphasis on quality and using local produce where possible. The staff are friendly. The afternoon tea was delicious and at only £12 a person good value, I have had afternoon tea at several places which were much more expensive and not half as good. The selection of sandwiches were varied, fresh and very tasty, personal likes and dislikes can be taken into consideration, the scones with butter and jam were very good and the cake selection was excellent and all home baked, a nice twist on millionaires shortbread was millionaires flapjack which was seriously good. All washed down with a pot of tea served in China teacups, perfect.

Probably the nicest tea rooms on the island forget about the large tea room by the pier this is a little gem, good coffee but more importantly great home made cakes. Be sure to get there early as we sat and saw a lot of people turned away as there wasn't any tables left. Couches arrive from the cruise ships mid morning and the town get flooded with tourists so get there at 10:00 when it opens or after 15:00 it closes at 16:00.

We had the best ever homemade soup (red pepper and lentil) in this lovely little tearoom and we can also highly recommend the sandwiches and toasties, which are also freshly made using quality local ingredients. We found that Stromness was generally very short on nice places to eat and The Tearoom was a gem of a find.

Just walking into the The Tearoom should be enough to tell you that you've found somewhere special, as it looks so inviting - and that's even before you notice the tempting display of home baking. There was so much we might have chosen, but as it was early afternoon, three of the four of us decided on the soup and sandwich deal - a wise choice as it turned out, as the soup was exceptional, in our case a very substantial broccoli and stilton variety, bursting with flavour. The sandwiches were lovely, too: with a choice of any two of the listed fillings available offering a wide variety of tasty combinations .

We were recommended this place by a Stromness local, a friend ours. We ended up going for lunch twice here during our holidays, and can thoroughly recommend it. In summary: tasty food, reasonable prices for the quality of food, friendly staff, and pretty surroundings. It's up a side street- look for their street board to know which one. You may have to wait to be seated (it's popular), but if it's not raining, sit on the steps outside. We sat in Stromness sunshine, whilst looking through the menu. Great selection of teas, and lovely cakes have to be mentioned specifically.
