Afternoon Tea at Lindy Lou’s was like taking a step back in time and is a lovely relaxed setting to tuck into a scrumptious Tea. We had a lovely experience celebrating my mums birthday being well looked after by the lovely owner. The Sandwich’s were so fresh with delicious fillings, the scones were tasty & the choice to have a cheese cake made the tea a winner. The Cherry cheese cake was a perfect end to a yummy tea and was probably one of the tastiest cheese cakes iv had, we will def be going back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Afternoon Tea visit with a friend for a birthday treat. It was her first Vintage Lindy Lou experience but we are sure that it won’t be her last. The 1940’s atmosphere inside this little gem of a tea room is one to experience. The decor, the food and the imaginative efforts of the owner and staff make this tea room so very special. Both sandwiches and home made cakes are wonderful. Thank you.

Whilst we were there there was a great pianist playing which made it even more special. He is not there everyday so check if you want to be there when he plays. Nothing is too much for Fay - lovely owner of Lindy Lou. Goes out her way to make your visit comfortable. Definitely worth a visit!

Cosy little spot just by the river, definitely a hidden gem. From the outside you would never have guessed you’d be walking into a Time Machine! Tea cups hanging from the ceiling and 1940 memorabilia surrounding you, it’s hard not to feel like you’ve taken a step back in time. The menu was bursting with choice from a large tea selection to cakes and cocktails galore. Besides the visible theme the food was delicious and staff were exceptional, would recommend to anyone who wants to experience a delicious afternoon tea and a reasonable price

Wow, what an amazing little tea room. The atmosphere was just like stepping back in time. Fay, the owner could not have been more helpful. My sister, a coeliac was overcome when her cream tea arrived, it looked every bit as good as ours, she said it’s the first time she didn’t feel the odd one out! We are holding our Mums wake here next week, honestly they could not have been more helpful. Our Mum, who would have been 94 today would have loved it. You must give it a try, but booking is essential.

Wonderful ambience a very unique venue in pleasant surroundings. However the afternoon tea was very disappointing. Sandwich fillings a bit sparse although the bread was nice and fresh. I hesitate to call the scones actual scones as they were very flat and more like a shortbread. I would have preferred to have a selection of several small pieces of cake instead of the huge piece of one cake which was rather dry. I hope this revue is helpful and is taken in the spirit it’s given as I would love to come back for the sheer ambience and hope that the afternoon tea will have improved.

Not being able to see my sister during lockdown is hard. A cake jar in the post from Vintage Lindy Lou however, helped to ease the pain. What a lovely gift! My coconut and raspberry surprise was two servings of cake put into a jar with lashings of jammy creaminess, and truly was the best cake I have ever tasted. I couldn’t eat it quick enough! Fay ( the gorgeous owner) makes amazing cakes and sandwiches and has a beautiful tea room which I have missed visiting. When will lockdown end so I can return? If you’re thinking the same and missing Fay’s yummies, or you want to send something nice to a loved one, please order a cake jar. One for them and one for you! It’s very reasonably priced, it comes in a nice box, there’s an option to add a gift card and it’s sent via tracked postage. I’m so happy that Fay has diversified with these little beauties to help keep her business going through these tough times. I’m looking forward to seeing you and the girls Fay when you open the tea room next. Book us a table with plenty of Earl Grey and serve me a cake jar in each flavour! Mmm xxxxx

I visited on a Saturday in October with 5 friends, it was very covid safe, I checked in when I arrived with the NHS app by scanning the QR codeI was seated at my bath tub seat straight away whilst waiting for my friends. I found the staff very friendly, we were given the menus to look through & then came back to take our order, the afternoon Tea each costs £19 I believe, however the sandwiches were a good size, 2 scones with jam & clotted cream & a big slice of cake and Unlimited tea. I paid for a blue smurf cocktail & when they brought it out the hat had dissolved, but they replaced it straight away. Nicely decorated in vintage decor, very cosy & makes you feel as though you can lose time in there. We were in there for hours, great place & will definitely visit again.

We booked, they have space for some unexpected visitors but the seating is reduced to allow for social distancing so better to be sure. We had the afternoon tea, it was wonderful. The only thing not baked on the premises is the bread; but talking of the sandwiches they were full of filling and you could choose. This must be the first time I've been given the choice of fillings at an afternoon tea and it made it so much nicer. The menu is extensive, catering for vegan and vegetarian too. The scones and cakes were amazing, so light and full of flavour. An amazing list of teas, we tried Russian Caravan tea - never even heard of it before!The staff were really friendly, professional and efficient. The decoration and atmosphere is very welcoming. Everything is personal, so unlike the chain coffee houses or even the hotels that offer tea and cakes (no Mr Kipling here!) - much nicer and can't wait to go back.

I have been to Vintage Lindy Lou Tea Rooms a few times and each time I haven't been disappointed. I haven't stopped recommending this incredible tea room. I have been with friends, my parents and my family and each time the service has been better and better. My son loves being a 'grown up', and the owner Fay has no issues with having children in her tea room. My advice (if you can) leave the pushchairs out side or in the car because space is limited but that doesn't take away from the atmosphere and wonderful setting created. But if do, ring in advance to give a little warning. Honestly, take some time out and visit this lovely tea room.

I visited Lindy’s recently with friends and on the off chance I asked if you can purchase cakes for parties etc. For an upcoming birthday. To my delight you can, and I ordered it just two weeks in advance. Even though the team had a huge event to prepare for the day after we required the cake they were kind enough to still do it for us (thank you thank you!). I sent an image of the design I was after but what they produced for me went above and beyond what I asked for, adding so much more detail and little intricacies. Everyone commented on how stunning it was, and the smell was divine (I didn’t realise a vanilla cake could smell so good), not to mention the taste. I cannot thank Fay and the rest of the team enough it really was perfect - plus the tearoom is lovely and quaint so I’ll be back when I want just a single slice of delicious cake soon! Thank you

I have driven past this part of Crayford for years and - to my shame - never noticed the green oasis. Having been told of a place that has tea in bone china cups and homemade cakes, I had to visit. So glad I did. Quirky for sure, but who wants to go to a bland chain for tea + cake? First, it is locally owned + run. Second, the staff are young and eager. Third, the atmosphere is just so comfortable. Fourth, it is eco-friendly. Finally, the tea range is amazing - as are the cakes. Can't recommend it enough and I am going to be a regular. It is a small local business that deserves support. Invest in it and you will be rewarded.

Lovely little tea shop, lovely fresh cake and afternoon tea is well priced and there is a range of sandwiches to choose from. Only negative is that service can be a little slow- been in here a few times now and each time it’s been the same

Lived in Crayford nearly 5 years and walked past so many times but never really taken much notice of the building. This tea room is a real hidden gem, probably the cosiest, authetic & relaxed atmosphere, genuine and friendly service with a smile.

You need to book but it is worth the wait as its a lovely little place and its like sitting in the past .... I loved the uniforms and the staff are really nice. It was old fashioned and really nice and full of the past with a touch of the present time. I loved the ambience and it was very different to anywhere I have ever been. The food was great and it felt as if it was loved by the person who was preparing it. I would go again

Although unassuming from the exterior, once inside the fantastic vintage decor transports you to another era. They have a fantastic selection of food (cakes!) and afternoon tea's, which were very tasty, and the service was excellent-I especially loved how they give young people the opportunity for work and real world experience. Would recommend and will go back for sure!

Although under new management Lindy Lous still excellent. Excellent value and great service. A real experience. So much food for afternoon tea we had to take our cake home for later. Such friendly service from time of arrival. Varied tea menu. Also gluten free available. We will be returning.

The staff here were super friendly, staying open for our group even though they were near to closing time. They have a great selection of cakes, teas and scones, and the decor is lovely and cosy. A wonderful place with great staff.

Went to Vintage Lindy Lou's with friends. From the minute I walked in I could see how much care and detail has gone into the decor. I instantly felt relaxed,and walked into a cosy friendly feeling atmosphere.

We've been on a few times, since the cafe changed hands and love the food and the owner and her daughters are lovely. Only thing that let's it down for me, is the lack of coffee options. If you order a cappuccino, then it shouldn't really be a filter coffee on a teapot, with a little mug of milk. It was very cute but not what I'd ordered and I would have liked the opportunity to change my order, based on the availabile options. When I questioned it, I was told that this was how they served cappuccino and that they got rid of the coffee machine, as not enough people wanted that type of coffee. I did find this a little hard to believe but please don't let this put you off visiting, as it's a lovely place to spend an hour and have a bite. Just be aware that you won't get a barista style coffee.

Had a wonderful afternoon catch up with the ladies on Saturday. We were looked after by Fay, Ella and her team of girls. We all had a different slice of cake in fact one of our girls had a piece of two as we she couldn't resist!. Fabulous tea and cake. Soup is to die for! Will definitely recommend and be back for more in the future. Next week perhaps! Excellent value for money and the size of the cake!!!!!!

I visited on a Saturday lunchtime for a girlfriends birthday with a group of girlfriends. We couldn’t have wished for a cosier more atmospheric setting. Crocheted blankets hung on the back of armchairs, China tea plates adorned the walls and the place was full of friendly chitter chatter. The tea is a choice of full cream tea ie.sandwiches cakes and scones or pick and choose from the menu which was fully comprehensive and set out with individual prices. Perfect !! The list of tea available is amazing and the service very welcoming and friendly. Value for money is outstand8ng too. Top place !!

Took my elderly parents to Vintage Lindy Lou and ordered the Opulent Afternoon Tea. Absolutely wonderful. The sandwiches and cakes were lovely and the scone with jam and cream was outstanding. The tea room's decor is delightful and the people working there were charming. Thank you so much for making my parents 65th Wedding Anniversary a great success and a memory to be cherished.

We had afternoon tea ordered for collection on Mother’s Day including one for a child. The teas were superb and had sandwiches, scones, beautiful cakes, teas and cutlery. We chose this cafe as lots of people are offering afternoon teas on fb during lockdown but using cakes from supermarkets - I could make that myself! The cakes included cheesecake, Victoria sponge and cupcakes. Would definitely recommend.

This is a typical workman’s type cafe giving food without any airs and graces at reasonable prices. I can recommend their range of all day english breakfasts. There is an outside eating area. The menu is quite extensive, looking at other customers food it looks to be ok but I have only had the English breakfast which was very good. It has a lot of regular customers Overall. very good.

My daughter and I have been brunching here regularly for more than two years. It really is the most wonderful place. The staff, mainly Lithuanian and Polish, are kind, funny, helpful. Just a delight to be around. The glamorous Russian owner is chatty and charming. The food itself is simply of the highest quality. It's all home-cooked to order so takes a little longer than your average cafe, but well worth it. The Bexley breakfast - or as they sometimes jokingly call it, the Brexit breakfast - gives the full English a new meaning. My daughter has had the Eggs Benedict and the Eggs Florentine and raves about both. You simply don't get this kind of quality service and exotica in the suburbs as a rule. Just wish the premises were a TINY bit bigger. I love this place, though. Love it.
