Vale House Cafe & Tea Room in Wirral

Don't know whats happened to this place - menu is terrible now with barely any choice! I don't know if it's under new managment or what, but it's embarrassingly poor. It was staffed by 3 very young lads when we went, and they didn't seem to have a clue what they were doing. My friend ordered just 4 things, and still they managed to get one of them wrong. It's such a lovely setting for a cafe, but it's just terribly run with the most uninspiring menu I think I've ever seen, especially if you're veggie.

Went here with my girlfriend to get an ice cream I had never been here before so didn’t know what to expect.however I was not expected to be treated angrily by the worker!

The rain didn't stop us when we visited for breakfast, just made the lovely breakfast even more needed! The parking was easy enough, it wasn't busy in the cafe and we got seated by the window on a pre-booked table for 2. Richie the owner came to speak to us to explain the changes in venues from Seaview originally to 2019 when he moved to Vale park, and also the changes in menu as they had to condense, as the location and weather can make the cafe busy serving up to 500 customers on a busy summer day. We took a few pics while we waited but we were served promptly: flat white for me and oat flat white and orange juice. We both went for a full English breakfast, I asked for no beans or black pudding, which were substituted for mushrooms and extra toast. The toasts came already abundantly buttered and the breakfasts were succulent: the herby and garlic tomatoes and mushrooms were delicious, the 10 inch sausage was juicy and the addition of the Ulster fry was a nice surprise to go with the bacon. Hash brown was crispy and the fried egg just how it should be. Beans were served in a separate dish and everything on the plate married well together. A very enjoyable experience and we most certainly will be back with our little one in the near future. A big thank you to Richie and everybody at The Coffee Roast for making us feel very welcome. I had breakfast at 9.30 this morning and it's kept me going all day 😃

Very good food, excellent chips portion size (£4 serving could feed a family)! Friendly staff also, would recommend to a friend.

We had afternoon Tea and it was excellent. The food and service were really good nothing was too much trouble the selection for the afternoon Tea was very good. Would recommended this little find to anyone on a day out to New Brighton or just locals looking for somewhere different.

We came here because our favourite cafe in New Brighton was closed.The cafe is blessed by very pleasant green surroundings,being set of course in Vale Park.The cake we chose,Jaffa Orange,was very good and tasty.But disappointed that not only did the cafe not supply tea in a pot as I expect in these places,but that it was served in one of those paper/cardboard beakers such as those that you get in the likes of Nero or Costa;and not particularly strong,either.Plus the cake also was served on a cardboard carton.The reason given was that it is because the tables are outside:I get that there may be an issue with breakages of crockery,but for me,part of the pleasure of eating and drinking in a nice independent cafe is the china or crockery cups and plates.And it was all more expensive than my favourite cafe.On the positive side,service was quick.

I was walking along the promenade,saw the sign,looked interesting. Checked on the website,yeh ,good ,but not so good reviews. Anyway , decided to try myself, went along with wife. Inside,tea room was closed, website says closes 7pm! Coffee was mediocre,like you get at petrol stations but at least 75% more expensive. Cakes were mediocre too. We sat outside, location good. Staff friendly, cleanliness average. We didn’t try ice cream , so ,no comments Just an ordinary cafe in the park , nothing,more. Nothing awe full either.

It used to be that the normal man could afford a cup or tea or coffee. But with £4 for coffee and £4.70 for 2 teas it’s now been deemed FOR THE THE ELITE! Take a flask if you’re going the park or a loan!

Bought an Oat Milk Latte today and was charged £3.95 - I asked the attendant to repeat and he confirmed that a take away coffee costs £3.95. I work regularly in central london and this is much more expensive - such a p@*# take….. they’re pretty much the only place to get coffee from in that vicinity - so with a captive market it actually pays to be reasonable… monmouth coffee covent garden - £3.10 Grind coffee shoreditch £3.20 Selfridges Drink In £3.75 Whilst you may argue these stores have bigger footfalls, they also pay significantly higher rents and business taxes….. An absolute Liberty.

If a cook isn’t able to produce scrambled egg, god help us. If an establishment can’t accept constructive criticism, god help them. The clue is in the name, scrambled…not cooked then chopped up. I mentioned my disappointment about the meal to a young man who claimed to be the manager, but he was totally dismissive of my advice.

Great cafe, ice creams to die for, lovely setting and atmosphere. Don't hesitate to go. Inside and outside,dogs on leads allowed.

Been supporting Vale park Cafe for years always happy with the service and the cakes were fantastic and good value for money. Latley though the prices have risen and the portion sizes have decreased massively. The cakes in the display cabinet advertised is not what you receive we ordered a Tiffin that was a tiny triangle and the Vegan flapjack fell apart into pieces even the squirrels struggled to eat it. Lost a valued customer

10/10 👌⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I visited The Coffee Roast in Vale Park last week while out walking with friends. I don't usually post reviews but I just have to say how blown away I was! The quality of service was amazing, all the girls were smiling, happy and eager to make sure we were well taken care of. The drinks hit just the right spot and WOW those cakes. You need to try their homemade crunchie tiffin, never had one like it before! Thanks Coffee Roast 😁

Having a walk along front at New Brighton. Called into cafe for coffee and bacon butty. Had a bacon brioche roll and a flat white, delicious and good value. Staff just delightful, so friendly, helpfull and chatty. Visit was a pleasure.

I am a regular visitor to vale park an I cudnt beleive wa I was hearing wen my disabled step son was Denyed access to their toilet as I had not bought any fin I went to the counter after he had qued up An was told no an explained he had a hidden disability an he was about to have an accident an was then again told no as I had not purchased anyfin from the cafe even tho I am a regular visitor to the cafe I was told he shud of brought his medical card with him I then again explained he has a diabilty the rude horrible sickening woman said if u dnt buy anyfin u can’t use toilet I then checked for change then realised my money was in car the poor child only went to play in the park he then had an accident in car on way home thanks to that horrible woman an he has cried all night I hope no disabled person has to experience wa we did at that hell hole

I go here literally everyday as I live 10 minutes up the promenade I’ve always found the staff to be very friendly and the large white Americano is amazing , should be noted as well that even during restrictions there standards didn’t slip , good job guys keep up the good work , lee

Visited at about 1-30pm Tuesday. They enticed us in with notice on promenade offering all sorts of hot food . When I asked they informed me there was not hot food available only cakes and refreshments. Why entice you in with offer of hot food if none available it was lunch time after all. There should be some information displayed as to the times hot food is available. Reluctant to return

Fab friendly service this afternoon and a great selection of coffee and cakes too! The coffee was lovely, very morish and a warm welcome in the rain today. The millionaire and biscotti cakes were also really tasty and massive too. A great asset to the park!

Popped in a few times recently when walking the dog, lovely freshly made smoothies for when the sun is shining! Had the deluxe hot chocolate today as it was cold and rainy which you can add flavoured syrups too, lush! Nice to be able to sip a hot drink whilst out with the dog. Staff all very friendly too.

Been here 3 times; with the family once & on my own twice while waiting for my daughter to have her music lesson.The staff are friendly & welcoming. They also cope well when it’s busy getting the food & drinks out quick. The food is good & well-priced & the cakes are superb, I can’t remember which cake my wife had but she said it was the best she’d ever had! Would always go back to this place. Keep up the good work guys.Max

Walked all the way from new Brighton to have afternoon tea queued up said to the staff have you got a toilet i can use i have a medical condition they said in was against the law to open public toilets what a ridicules comment had to walk back to new Brighton to the the floral pavilion who were just the opposite welcome you to use there toilets with all the social distancing measures in place wont be going back the cafe in the park

Vale Park is a really nice park to walk around, well kept gardens and grounds ,peaceful and just a nice place to chill out in, within Vale Park is Vale House which is a lovely looking building, now a cafe ,unfortunately on our visit it was closed but I must say I loved the look of the building, added to the joy of walking through Vale Park and easy to locate along Magazine Road in Vale Park just off New Brighton Promenade

After visiting this cafe for the last few years & being very happy with the quality & price of the food, we came away from the cafe today feeling extremely disappointed. Considering it is the school holidays, they didn’t seem to have many staff in. They had one, obviously inexperienced, member of staff on the till taking orders. I was about 8 people back in the queue & had to wait approximately 20 minutes to get served. Where the ordering point/till was situated meant that the queue of people were all bunched up one end, blocking the door to the toilet. Once at the front of the queue, bearing in mind it was only about 12:15, they had run out of virtually half of what was advertised on the menu. The 4 children with us all wanted pancakes but were told we couldn’t have them as they were on the breakfast menu which finished at 12:00...we’d actually joined the queue before 12:00!! The quality of the food was very poor once we eventually got it. The jacket potatoes were hard & undercooked. The children’s sandwiches were small & very poor for the price, actually more expensive than the adult sandwiches! Overall, we felt that the food was very overpriced, not great quality, the service was poor & the whole place felt very disorganised. I don’t think we’ll be going back there for a while

Been out walking stopped for a cuppa, lovely staff very friendly, excellent customer service and the best coffee choice ever...looking forward to seeing you all soon...

Having vegan options is refreshing. The cafe is reasonably priced and is a massive improvement now due to new ownership. However, I was disappointed to hear one of the waitresses speaking to a customer today so rudely. He simply asked for item on his order which had been forgotten and was told he didn’t ask for it so it was his fault. She could have been so much more kinder and professional. I just don't want the cafe to go down hill because it’s so much better than hoe it was and I love my New Brighton.

My husband had the all day breakfast and I had the breakfast Stack so yummy and heaps of food washed down with a giant breakfast cup of tea Excellent we will be back The staff are so lovely so friendly too Thankyou xx

Went into this quaint cafe for the first time last friday. My daughter got a caramel slice hot chocolate cappachino and bakewell tart. I nearly fainted when she said she was charged nearly 10.00 I couldn't drink the coffee it was disgusting. I did tell the girl when leaving .she did ask if I wanted something else but I refused.i know businesses have to make money but I feel that was a lot of money for what we had. I looked for a price list but could not find one on display. So disappointed.

Had a lovely time with family and young children. Staff where friendly, drinks where nice, nice setting outside. We enjoyed it

Under new management.Excellent food and very nice staff.Sit outside in the sun and the staff will look after you

This is a great place to have lunch .the staff are so nice and friendly, the food is good to .If you go at the weekend you might be lucky enough to hear the bands playing in the band stand Also a walk around the park is also worth a visit to visit the fairies

My whole visit to the gorgeous little cafe in the park was lovely. The staff Are all amazing. So friendly, helpful and professional nothing is too much trouble. Dog friendly and incredible for families.Oh by the way the food was really lovely and a fantastic menu, including vegan and gluten free.Absolutely everything was spot on.Well done team and thank you all.Definitely a must visit cafe set in the gorgeous Vale park.

Had lunch. Fish and chips were very tasty and would rival some celebrity chefs. Eggs Benedict also excellent. Others in cafe had Sunday roast which looked very good too - will be back to try that soon. The cafe is in lovely park with super drift wood sculptures made by local gentlemen.

Lovely family meal for Mother's day. We all had the roast which was lovely but the afternoon tea also looked delicious. The staff were very nice even though they were clearly run off their feet and the owner was extremely attentive and professional. The location in Vale Park is delightful and I would certainly recommend a visit

After popping in for coffee and cake several times recently, finally got to sample the cooked food and it was delicious! Great service, friendly staff, excellent menu.... this cafe has improved so much since the new owners took over. Highly recommended.

Under new management, great people and great food including vegan and veggie options. Well worth a visit after a stroll around beautiful Vale Park

I have visited this cafe many times and decided to take my mum and uncle who was visiting from Wales. Upon arrival we were told they are only doing roast dinners on Sundays as they have only just taken over the cafe. That was not a problem for us. The staff were lovely and very accommodating.. I will definitely be going back for Sunday lunch.. Thank you guys and good luck with the future of the cafe

The former owners of the Coffee Roast Liscard have just taken over the Vale Park Cafe. Lovely friendly staff and excellent cake selection.

Had a lovely morning in the park with family, planned to have lunch in cafe as in a lovely spot. Unfortunately there wasn't a single clean table (filthy) and after looking at the very unappetising cakes that were on offer in the fridge, definitely not freshly baked as advertised, shop bought Swiss roll, wrapped cakes and chocolate bars... decided to give it a wide berth. Such a shame as could be something special.

What has happened to this cafe .it was disgusting filthy tables and decor .staff were unorganized. Would not visit again .

Sunday, the band was playing lovely sunny day, it dirty tables all a mess, food was dry stale cakes.

Lovely cafe in Vale Park, you can sit in and outside. Vale Park has well maintained grounds and sometimes in the summer the bandstand (which is nearby) has concerts which you can listen to while enjoying a beverage. Good selection of food

Unorganised and understaffed for such a busy summer day. Outside is dirty with rubbish and fag ends on the floor . Tables with dishes etc and not wiped down . Inside is dirty , counter and sticky tables . Ordered food, bacon and cheese burger and 2 portion of chips to take out . Burger was wafer thin , bacon barely cooked and plastic cheese slice ( expected but not melted ) . Chips were fine and hot but tiny portion for price . I had to wait standing in the corner of cramped cafe by fridge for 25 minutes . Shame as I don’t mind basic & no frills but expect clean and cooked nicely. This could be so much more of an asset to the park .

Dropped into the cafe to avoid the rain. Tables were dirty and uncleared, the floor was grimy. The people running it seemed to be holding some family meeting on one of the tables, leaving a young girl manning the till and taking orders.

Had a cup of tea at the cafe even though I ordered a coffee from my wife. she forgot on the twenty metre walk to order.!!!

Took my daughter's to see the fairies in the beautiful park and popped into the cafe while we were there. For a community centre I thought the prices were a bit high, but I paid anyway. The whole experience was very disappointing. The club sandwich wasn't toasted and the warm bacon and chicken mixed with grated cheese just made it a soggy sandwich. There was no coleslaw, as stated in the menu and the side salad consisted of half a tomato, a piece of cucumber and some chopped lettuce. I wasn't expecting 5* but I was expecting something more. The sandwich was so greasy I couldn't even finish it. Just to top that off when I took my daughter to the toilet it was dirt and had no soap to clean our hands. I ordered coffee with lunch but as it never actually came I had to go and get it myself and even then the lady left it on the side and walked away! I had to get another member of staff to pass it over!

Eat and drink inside or sit outside overlooking the river in green surroundings and enjoy the quaint old fashioned Victorian park ........ very nice indeed. And very cheap food and drinks and the staff are pleasing

Grrst breakfast they got my daughters breakfast wrong so they re cooked everything and she really enjoyed it..would eat here again..my only negative is it could do with a bit of a dust and maybe some new table cloths .... But food was great.... And friendly welcoming staff... ohh yeah take some nuts tor the squirrel s they come right up to you.... We fed them muesli bars they loved them

Community cafe with decent bacon sandwiches, baked potatoes and all day breakfasts. Great value- particularly the large baked potatoes with beans and cheese. Definitely go back if nearby.

Detrás del paseo marítimo entre este jardín botánico muestra amplias vale la casa es un oasis personal por voluntarios para una caridad local. Ya que las temperaturas en el adornado subía músicos (creo modernas bandstand Trumpton) eran simplemente tuning sus instrumentos. Los sonidos dibujó los ciclistas, paseantes de todas las edades y panting perros con sus amos a la pausa. Nuestro grupo - ya empieza a quemar con el calor de nuestras tropas a lo largo de la PROM' desde el puerto de ferry seacombe hacia New Brighton - decidido ir aquí para refrescos y una muy necesaria. brunch pitstop Uff!

Cafe Vale Park es casi una cuchara grasienta, pero está situado en la pequeña joya de Vale Park, lo que le da la ventaja de un entorno precioso y asientos al aire libre. Los clientes son los senderistas perro, gente parando desde un paseo por el paseo marítimo y las familias con niños pequeños.

Well run cafe offering tea, coffee and ice cream. Nothing bad about the whole set up. There's seating outside and it gets busy when the sun eventually comes out. Situated right in the middle of the park and handy for the bandstand etc.

Stopped here for a light bite whilst walking the prom.

Staff not as friendly as they could be.does not cost much to smile.and means a lot to some people.food was fine .i just love the park .nothing will stop us going .but please make people welcome.

Encantador helado y buena relación calidad-precio, pero el servicio es lamentable y no higiénicas. La verdad es que era un día muy caluroso, y cerca del final del día, sin embargo, las chicas que sirve dejaba mucho que desear, incluso a mirar que parecía caliente...

Son niños que personal no ha tenido ningún entrenamiento. La comida es horrible y no es barato. No vamos a volver!

Tuvimos que esperar más de 20 minutos para conseguir una lata de coca-cola era demasiado grosero personal no volveremos allí y no era barato

We had been told that the Café in Vale Park was a good place to eat ands this was confirmed when we arrived by the Trip Advisor stickers on the window. This was lunchtime and the only thing that was offered was either and All Day Breakfast and various sandwiches etc. We both decided on one of the All Day Breakfasts. This came with undercooked bacon and tinned tomatoes. The other items were acceptable. The tea and coffee that was included was served in cups. When I asked for saucers, I was told that they didn't have any, but offered my side plates, which I declined. There was no salt and pepper on the table and my wife went to ask was handed the pepper and the staff had to find the salt, which they did. The décor was extremely tired as was the furniture, The place really reminded me of a roadside Transport Café, as they were 50+ years ago. Despite being fairly cheap, we certainly won't darken their doors again and would suggest that the Trip Advisor signs be removed.

Lovely food and nice place to have lunch with the family made our day that little bit extra special. Would recommend the food as all fresh.

Expensive drinks awful service ,you need to go to barking mad in rodents park to see how to run a cafe ,the only reason it survives is because there's nothing else around . Don't go

Just been for afternoon tea, which was absolutely lovely, food was amazing. Couldn't have had a better customer service than we did, Mark was fantastic!! Thank you so much!☕️

Great park. Clean, safe play area for small children. The tea room boasted friendly staff and lots of variety. Hot chocolate for mums and ice cream for the kids meant everyone searched for fairies in the fairy garden with a full tum then ran off the sugar in the hills and sports equipment.

Called in today with my grandson, was not disappointed. What a nice welcoming place, the staff were fantastic as was the food, and table service made the visit even more enjoyable. We will return.

This is in a lovely spot inVale park .Well worth a visit .Sunday lunch is good but you need to book.It's only a small cafe.

What a truly wonderful place to go to and walk along new Brighton sea front looking out to liverpool dog friendly the vale cafe is a must to break of for a coffe and sandwich

Nice friendly staff great food and drinks, nice and clean what more could you ask for? Nice and warm place to sit and relax after a cold walk around the park.

Visited on Saturday 21st Lovely friendly staff. Very clean . Food was lovely. Will be visiting again soon

I would not recommend this venue to anyone.They have no idea on service,food hygiene,how to cook food properly.No cutlery on the table when serving food,inedible food staff hostile when faced with complaint.Staff wearing coats,blue kitchen gloves,no aprons.

Went several times this summer when they had music on in the park. Really busy nice coffee and they leave big bowls of water out for the dogs. Will be back.

We called in at the cafe as a good friend recommended the food, me and dad were not disappointed the breakfasts were lovely and plentiful the service was friendly and the prices were cheap - All in all a lovely old fashioned tea shop and a lovely experience

Visited Cafe after seeing the new Fairy House and found the Food I ordered cooked perfectly and followed up with a lovely bean Latte with a slice of delicious Lemon Drizzle Cake the staff were very friendly and asked us if our meal was ok. After seeing an earlier post about the Cafe being dirty I can say on this day the cafe was spotlessly clean. Will be returning to this wonderful Park and Cafe to sample the Afternoon Tea.

It's dirty, everything is dirty! Food is terrible I'm surprised they haven't been reported to Heath and safety of food hygiene ....I know most of the people who live here don't go to this cafe it's mainly full of people from out of town on weekends. Such a shame it's this bad.

Bland food, table outside where dirty, inside was no better, staff service was very average,no card machine

Visited here this morning with my auntie, baby and cousin. I wanted to go because I have read good reviews and they do a slimmers menu which attracted me. So we go this morning, the place was empty apart from one other diner. 3 women working here. No customer service skills between them, no greeting as we entered, no smile no nothing! Went up and ordered our food, the girl on the till was ok at this point... I changed one item on the slimmers breakfast(beans to mushrooms). The young girl who brought our food(Kerris I think she was called) should not be working in the customer service industry!!! Brought our food and just plonked it down on the table, no smile nothing. My breakfast was supposed to come with scrambled egg but came with fried egg, I pointed this out and was told that it comes with fried egg, showed the girl the menu and she did offer to change it but I couldn't be bothered(their attitude had sort of rubbed off on me by this point) my auntys sandwich came without coleslaw as the menu said, was told we don't have any coleslaw(Prob should have been told this at the time of ordering!!) no one came over to ask if our food was ok. In fact no one chatted to us at all. For an empty cafe this is awful!y breakfast tasted better than it looked apart from the sausages which were black, rock hard and inedible!!! Safe to say none of us would ever visit here again and wouldn't recommend to anyone either! Really could be quite popular with the slimmers menu but customer service matters to me!! I could of understood if they were rushed off their feet but if customers are an inconvenience (which is how we felt) then they really shouldn't be in this industry!

Visited this Lovely little Cafe today (29/08/2016) and the food was lovely we waited only 15 minutes and it was really busy but the food came out lovely. The staff where pleasant, friendly and still smiling even though they where rushed off their feet. There's a fairy garden just near the Cafe also and the children loved it. We also visited the event that was on in the park and it was great loads of stalls and entertainment for the kids. Would definitely recommend

My dayghter had her baby shower there 27/8/16 had a lovely afternoon, food was really good with plenty of tea. Went there last year for Mothers day. Will be going again

Cafe was ok but not enough staff. The fairy houses in the park are fantastic and brighten up young and old alike.

I took the family for afternoon tea today in the sunshine. There were 6 adults and 2 children, and I booked in the morning. When we arrived a table had been beautifully laid for us with a tablecloth and china crockery. The sandwiches and cakes arrived beautifully arranged on cake stands. They even provided juice for the children in a china tea pot :-)The service was excellent and the whole afternoon was a lovely way to celebrate my birthday :-)

waited half an hour for a breakfast.there was only another two people there ???!!!..toast was served to early and cold,cup of tea nearly gone and cold by the time the breakfast arrived and then the presentation was very poor, the egg was black and yolk broke smeared all over the plate.staff were scruffy and inatentive, eating amongst the customers aswell , leaving her empty wrapper on the table when she had finished, also the place needs a good clean,there is debris under fridges/drink machines, ice cream freezer was filthy ! wont be goin there again !!!!

Return visit after 2 years. Plenty of tables well spaced and numerous water containers on an extended flat space in front of cafe, very suitable for our dog. The gardens well stocked with flowers and stunning views of the river through the trees. We had a' hot' chocolate and cappuccino which were tasty but only warm. The tea cakes were fine. Will visit again soon as the wide walk beside the Mersey and the Liverpool skyline really stunning

Whilst having a lovely walk in the beautiful Vale park we decided to stop by and have a coffee in this really lovely little cafe. I noticed a choice of lovely cakes on offer too,plus a variety of cold drinks which my children had. The staff were lovely,and we received super quick service. I will definitely call back again when I am next passing Thank you.

Great little Cafe' in the Park, Ice cream is fantastic. Very friendly staff. They cater for parties or just snacks or a lovely lunch. Whatever your mood, you will love it.

Great mug of coffee taken on the terrace at only £1.30. Friendly, fast and recommended. This is what it is ...... a Cafe in a public park that is very good and has loads of seating inside and out. What's not to like .......

Popped into vale park cafe yesterday, it was lovely, a little gem hidden away, only tried the coffee and walnut cake it was delicious, my friend had the Victoria sponge which was just as nice, will definitely try other items on the menu the next time we visit.

Staff very unenthusiastic and miserable. Didn't offer me my change although it was only 10p. Coffee terrible and cheap. Cups dirty and tables dirty. Staff did other the dog water though. Ice cream lovely!

Went here with my friend for afternoon tea, we've never been before. It was lovely as soon as we arrived they had our table waiting for us, we had a pot of tea which served 2 cups of tea each, 2 scones,2 cupcakes, a chocolate eclair, a slice of lemon tart and about 8 finger sandwiches with salad dressing. We were so full after the tea an the scone, the girls let us have plastic boxes to bring the rest of our cakes home it was so filling. I'd recommend you take 3 people instead of 2 for tea for 2 as it was more than enough, well worth the money I think it was £15 for 2 people. I'm definitely coming again it was easy access easy to find an a pleasant afternoon.

I don't often leave reviews, and usually only do it to praise nice places but this cafe is truly awful. Hard cakes, old looking crispies and tea served in dirty mugs. Service was ok, but what's on offer is very poor quality. I came here based on a trip advisor reviews, but don't waste your money or time! Only good thing is the location.

Had drinks here on a nice sunny day - very busy and staff under pressure had to que up for drinks which seemed like for ever to get served- the Tea is very weak and served in thick Builders Type mugs - best part about it is the Area Nice park and Flowers . band stand looks Lovely.

I love visiting here, breakfast is top notch and never fails to disappoint. What a lovely place to eat and lovely views. Lovely staff I will be visiting again!

Lovely place! Lovely staff! Lovely food! In a beautiful setting! Reasonable pricing and very clean too! Would recommend!

Just what the doctor ordered whilst going for a walk down the promenade coming to Vale Park. lots seating outside bad thing is visitors dogs everywhere and frighten grandchildren. But it can't be helped otherwise great food great service

Family of four adults, including elderly relative, called in for a light lunch on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Staff, without exception, were friendly, welcoming and helpful and all seemed to be working hard at clearing and cleaning tables and serving customers. There were lots of customers coming and going, some for meals and some for just an ice cream ( the bright blue bubble gum ice cream seemed particularly popular with the little ones) and it was pleasant to see the staff engaging well with all customers. I note this cafe is dementia friendly - something that is important to us as a family. We had sandwiches, chips and cake and it was all good, very reasonably priced too. Happily recommend Vale House, we'll certainly be back.

Tried to visit for lunch but unable to gain entry, could not access parking. Will try again when in the are as the setting looks perfect. Perhaps, it's only for walkers!! I therefore unable to give a rating.

Beautiful room and staff who went out of their way to be helpful and friendly. Great location.More than enough food with delicious cakes. Perhaps slightly fewer cakes and more finger sandwiches would have been better. But overall. Fantastic !Thank you for making barb's 70th afternoon tea birthday party a wonderful experience.

great place to pop in for a coffee or tea whilst strolling along the prom very good service and reasonable prices foods good aswell ! would recommend

En enkel og fin park med en liten koselig kafé. Utvalget er greit nok og maten det samme. Men fungerer til en liten rast i bakken.

Excellent food great friendly staff prices great will be back my daughter Evan received a free easter egg and baking set

We have visited café before for afternoon tea, my daughter enjoyed the experience that much that she wanted to have her 10th birthday party there.The food if delicious and is excellent value for money, the room itself is quaint and full of character and they staff are more then friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them, they made us feel very welcome and enhanced the afternoon experience.

Just a coffee stop and no food was ordered.Service is always pleasant and welcoming.Lovely relaxing afternoon chatting with the locals and my husband.Lots of squirrels lurking about hoping for a stray piece or crumb of cake. Cute

We organise yearly events in the bandstand. My Dad called Austin and I love the park and love this cafe situated perfectly in the middle. Keep up the good work!

Lovely community based cafe in the park, serving array of home baked delights and refreshments. We sat outside in the autumn sunshine after a wonderful visit to see the fairies and enjoyed the family atmosphere this establishment offers. There is a children s section full of fun and i noticed a newly decorated bandstand, which I can only suggest adds greatly to the experience when in operation.
