Vintage Tea Room in Fareham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

They Cancelled by order 10 minutes before due very unprofessional and unreliable wouldn’t recommend if you want a reliable service and not be left disappointed last miniute

We came here to celebrate a family event and to redeem the voucher, but had to leave very disappointed, because the vouchers are not honoured by the new management even though they are well within the date. We were told: 'You can get your money back, other cuatomers got them back easily'. It's not about the money, it's about the disappointment brought and the whole weekend ruined.

We came all the way from Gibraltar for a quintessential English tea experience to find at 1510hrs the place was shut. It's a Tearoom. The English take tea in the afternoon.

Popped into this little family-run place on West Street for lunch on a busy Saturday afternoon. The menu was exactly what we were after - brunches, sausage and mash, classic British staples. The service was quick and very friendly, and the food was good - especially for the price (not many other places you can get bangers and mash for £8). Very glad we stopped here, would go again. And it’s very close to the free Fareham Museum too…

I bought several vouchers for staff presents. Sadly one recipient has been unable to redeem theirs as the establishment has changed management. I’ve messaged them and had no reply. I feel embarrassed by this situation.

I paid for an afternoon tea for two voucher. I asked four times for a refund when it didn’t arrive - three times by email and once by phone. Nobody was interested in helping me. Customer service was poor. I completed the form so I could write the review but we didn’t get to step inside!

A last minute booking and we were very pleasantly surprised. Booked afternoon high tea for my mum and bother. The tea room was well presented, clean and great customer service from the two ladies who served us and prepared our food. Lovely bit of cheeky banter between us all and the food was delicious. Had far worse in London hotels. Well presented, plentiful and will definitely recommend and visit again. Great job ladies. Credit where credit is due!!

Great place, newly decorated and fresh menu. Salmon bagel was very fresh and high tea was amazing. will visit again.

I booked tea for two to be delivered today on Mothering Sunday. Although the agreement was anytime between 12.30 to 3.30, the exciting box of goodies was delivered at 12.00 by a cheerful and polite young person. The sandwiches were fresh and tasty, the cake slices moist and delicious and the scones had to go back into the fridge because, for the moment, we are full! Thanks for making it a special day.

The staff were friendly and the service prompt. We had high tea and I enjoyed the chicken sandwiches in seeded bread. The filling was chunky and the bread high quality. I liked the scones which were warm and tasted fresh. Unfortunately I found my lemon cake too sweet with a filling that tasted like lemon curd. The tea was served in bone china cups which adds a special touch to tearooms. I was surprised that there were no tablecloths on the tables as shown in pictures of the cafe. Although the coffee was from a machine that ground the beans, it tasted weak and watery. I have visited many tearooms but this one did not stand out for me.

An overall good experience, with nice food and good service. We did have to wait a little while to have our order taken, but were served quickly once it had been taken The venue would benefit from having music playing in the background, to add to the ambience. When people weren't talking, it was very quiet.

Thank you to Vintage tearoom who today delivery a delicious and fresh afternoon tea for myself and parents to enjoy. I had asked for one gluten free which was very enjoyable indeed and in fact all of the cakes, scones and sandwich fillings were very good indeed. Staff were so helpful on the phone too. We will definitely book delivery/visit vintage tearoom again!

Enjoyed a special treat today afternoon tea at this lovely tea room. The selection was varied and flexible. The staff were very warm and welcoming. The food was fresh and tasty, cakes were delicious. Thank you so much for a truly special experience. Will definitely be returning again soon. Prices are reasonable too!

I placed an order for 7 afternoon teas to be delivered as a surprise for our friends baby shower today. It was delicious. The sandwiches had a great variety of of fillings and were so fresh. The scones were like ‘clouds’ so soft and very tasty especially with the jam and clotted cream. There was a range of cake, I particularly enjoyed the lemon and poppyseed. I would recommend and order from again! Thank you, mother to be was very happy.

Had afternoon tea delivered to both mums for Mother’s Day- absolutely fabulous! They were both delighted and thoroughly enjoyed them. There were plenty of sandwiches, cakes and scones with clotted cream and jam- all delicious!! Can highly recommend and will definitely use again as a treat for family and friends! Thanks so much 😀

What a tasty surprise to get a nice lady deliver us an afternoon tea to our door during lockdown. A kind gesture from a friend to buy us tea for two. Except for us having to brew our own cuppa, everything was there; sandwiches of seeded brown bread with tuna, ham/cheese, egg and chicken, two huge raisin scones and clotted cream (for 10 more!!!), and jam, two slices of cake (a lemon and a carrot cake), all nicely boxed up. Looking forward to visit the physical shop when this pandemic is over, in the meantime we highly recommend the Vintage Tea Room's delivery service for Fareham and surrounding areas.

A birthday during lockdown is unfortunately the ways things are for many of us. However, my birthday was definitely memorable this year thanks to the Vintage Tea Room. My dear friends arranged for afternoon tea to be delivered to my home and what a treat it was. Beautifully prepared snadwiches with fillings of egg (my favourite), tuna and cucumber, cheese and pickle and chicken mayo, large scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream and two pieces of cake - Victoria spnge and an orange and chocolate delight (wow, so delicious). It was thoroughly enjoyable and I would definitely recommend this special treat. Thank you to everyone at the Vintage Tea Room. I look forward to visiting you when lockdown is over.

My first visit here with my daughter and it was lovely. The shop was super clean and well organised for the “COVID-19 world we are stuck in” and clearly sporting that freshly refurbished look of polished glam/clean..loved it. We had tea and scones which where of good size and plenty of fillings to add. I noticed they had a good variety of cakes for afternoon tea and following a chat with the gentleman whom I presume is the owner I learnt they are offering a afternoon tea delivery service. He was lovely and chatty...I would recommend this little business and shall return.

Stopped here for a late lunch while passing through Fareham. We both had a ploughman’s which was a very generous portion, great value and delicious. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend!

The kids were away for a couple of days so we had an impromptu lunch here. We have been several times before and learnt you should definitely go for the full cream tea with sandwiches scones and cake, as well as a pot of tea. This is very good value even without the government scheme which was in place. As usual we took the generous cake slice home with us for later.

I visited here with my family for afternoon tea. Firstly the customer service by the waitress was awful. She was rude and quite frankly not very good at her job. Secondly it took just over an hour to recieve our food, we ordered sandwiches, scones and cake. I personally don't think it is acceptable to take that long to provide food like this.Thirdly the food was mediocre at best, the ham was obviously the cheapest stuff from the local shop and everything else was microwaved.Lastly the place isn't very clean at all, I know it is a vintage tearoom but that doesn't mean you cannot clean the past 30 years of dust.

I ordered a high tea to be delivered at home for my mother in law’s birthday. Wow. It was fantastic. So fresh and so much food. The sandwiches were a mixture of different fillings and delicious. The scones were enormous and delicious. Lots of clotted cream and jam too. Highly recommended and presented well. Thankyou so much Vintage Room. We will be ordering again. A real treat.

Very disappointing birthday afternoon tea for my dad. After paying £12.50 per person for an afternoon tea l was very disappointed to have delivered sandwiches made with the most basic white bread which was smothered in a thick layer of butter! Scones were very dry. Menu stated that Victoria Sponge was the cake that would be provided which my dad loves....... no Victoria Sponge was provided if there was a choice of cake this should of been made clear. No teabags were provided for the tea.I never normally complain but l am totally disappointed in this afternoon tea which came from a tearoom. I had a much nicer afternoon tea a couple of weeks ago from a cafe that did not specialise in afternoon teas,

My daughter had her 21st Birthday, during lock down, her Grandmother and Auntie organised the delivery of an afternoon tea as we could not go out. This was so fresh and delicious that it helped what could have been a very sad Birthday celebration turn into a really nice and memorable one, helped by tea dresses and sunshine. Thoroughly recommend.

Our daughter ordered a fabulous afternoon tea and they delivered it to home. Lovely fresh sandwiches, cake, scones with jam and clotted cream. Delivered by really nice member of staff who read out the nice message on our doorstep following all the correct social distancing rules. would definitely recommendGreat service.

First time visiting yesterday, cannot believe I haven't been before - staff were so lovely and friendly, not pushy at all and let us sit and chat as long as we liked. All cakes were amazing and the breakfasts that came out looked incredible!! Very reasonable pricing, looking forward to coming back - I was sad to see it wasn't more busy for a sunday morning, this is a really nice place to grab a lazy breakfast/brunch - lots of options and they were happy to amend where they could.

Have been to this tea room several times and never had a problem, but this visit was different. Had a groupon voucher as usual and chose to go 27th December having checked if they were open. Got there and was closed, when we phoned them a few days later was told hard luck we were closed and wouldn’t honour the groupon that went out of date told should have gone earlier. Suggest you check if there open before you go.

A great place to meet up with old friends it's comfy excellent tea and coffee with a tasty cake or sandwich .Try it .

Two of us had already sampled the wares before booking for our friends 40th birthday.The quality of all the sandwiches, scones & cakes were the best ones I've tasted out of all the places we had tried.The lady & gent couldn't do enough for you, that's why it;s always booked up for parties.Excellent food, and service.

Popping into this cafe for lunch. Several tables were reserved but there was a table free. The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming and more than pleased to offer advice and provided a great service. My partner had chilli with rice and I had gsm and chutney baguette with side salad and coleslaw. The portion size is more than ample, with a very wide-ranging choice of different teas. The food is very good and the cost of our two meals plus a tea and coffee totalled £13.50. Very good value for money. Looking forward to a return visit and trying a piece of cake.

Booked the day before online for 2 people for high tea and had a phone call an hour before we were due to arrive to cancel the booking. Apparently my booking had only just come through to them and that if I had paid online, it would have told me they were fully booked. I pointed out that I had an email confirmation and then a text reminder a few hours later about the booking which seemed surprising to the man on the phone. He was very matter of fact and didn’t seem overly apologetic at all. Clearly the online booking system doesn’t work properly and needs looking at. I won’t be rebooking.

Very friendly welcoming staff. Nice food, nice premises, loved it and coming again for more. Good value for money.

Visited with a friend. Premises smelled ' musty ' and were not particularly clean. We didn't receive a warm welcome which led me to believe the couple serving were perhaps ' standing in ' for the owner . I ordered cold food and my friend hot food. The hot food arrived and was consumed prior to the arrival of my cold food . My bread was of poor quality and had what appeared to be a ' thumb print ' in the top ! I ordered a slice of cake which looked nice but was sadly tasteless.

The tearoom was very shabby chic. Furniture, china etc. all mismatched. There was a large collection of china teapots on display. The place was clean and tidy and the staff very friendly. Food was excellent - more than enough clotted cream and jam for the large scones. Sandwiches were freshly made to our own choice of fillings and a choice of homemade cakes.

Revisited with two friends.We were treated with distain. I had purchased 3 cream teas with groupon.The lady and gentleman serving seemed very "not bothered" with our custom. Although food was nicely presented it was practically dumped on our table with no smile or greeting.The scones had presumably been placed in the microwave as although nice and warm they were like cardboatd in places.

We went to The Vintage Tearooms today to spend the voucher we had been given for high tea. We had sandwiches, scones and cake. All of it very fresh and delicious. The service was excellent, very friendly. I've been in this place several times, and have always found it to be very clean. And in reply to the reviewer who criticized the toilet. I didn't notice black round the taps or mould, and there were paper towels.

My sister In-law booked a table for afternoon tea for 9 people last Saturday afternoon.

We visited here with family on Saturday and once again we were blown away by the service and food.

Had a lovely relaxing afternoon in the tea rooms today. Met an old friend and we spent about 4 hours catching up. The kind and helpful owners made us feel welcome and didn’t pressure us to leave, despite the fact we were there so long.

I booked for afternoon tea as a Mother’s Day present, a week in advance, paid on line, had the booking confirmed, only to called less than 24 hours before my booking to be told they now had a large party in which would coincide with my booking, so they wanted to bring my booking forward from 2.30pm to 12 noon. Not quite afternoon tea !! It was clear a larger party spending more money were given precedence over my booking. Very let down at the very last minute, especially given the fact I had paid... Very poor customer service, clearly it was more about profit than keeping customers satisfied. AVOID !

Brought my Mother in Law for Mothers'Day. It was lovely. Excellent food and drinks. Several courtesy checks. We weren't made to feel uncomfortable with my children (3yr and 4mth) Even when the baby cried. Lovely touch was 2 specially designed chocolates given to my Mother in Law.

Booked a sparkling high tea as an early Mother’s Day treat and I couldn’t be happier that I did! The food was absolutely fantastic, it was so beautifully decorated and the staff were superb - super friendly and welcoming! I am so happy I have found this gem! Will definitely return, thanks guys!

My daughter took me to this quaint tea room for my birthday, along with my partner & youngest daughter.

I visited early Feb for my friends 30th birthday. There were 8 of us and it didn't feel cramped despite it being quite a small tea room. We chose the £10 option of afternoon tea where you choose a sandwich, slice of cake and scone. You have the options of white/Brown bread and what fillings, with extras available at extra cost.

Popped in here this afternoon for coffe and cake. I am gluten free and the carrot cake was amazing. My daughter in law and granddaughter had drinks and cake and both agreed the cakes were good. Would recommend to anyone.

Took my mum here for afternoon tea for her birthday, and we had a lovely time! Great choice of sandwiches and cakes, and very accommodating. Staff were lovely, decor was lovely, I would definitely recommend!

1st visit & very disappointing, omelette menu on board outside, good job it was not Raining. Out of to basic meals one was wrong, there was only three meals being prepared. Forgot the toast, when reminded still never turned up till after the breakfast. Eggs very greasy. No apologies.

Been here a few times, always lovely food and staff are very friendly. There are plenty of options, usually four or five fresh cakes, would definitely recommend the high tea! It's always pretty quiet and relaxed, and the decor is really nice - you can even choose your own teapot from the vintage selection.

Lovely place with wonderful owner Jayne, all staff helpful they also have a 5 star food rating , great menu and choice of teas

We had a lovely afternoon in the Vintage tea rooms.

Me and my mum popped by earlier in the year or maybe late last year, I for get now, but we had a bacon roll and it was nice.

Visited this tea room after a long while, I was very disappointed, one staff initially on duty, later another member of staff appeared. When I visited the toilet lock wasn’t functioning properly. Perishable foods and milk was left outside in the heat in a shopping trolly.

Had a Groupon afternoon tea. If I hadn't already paid for it I would have walked out. Sticky tables, musty smell, dirty menus, cracked teapot and sugar residue stuck in my 'clean' cup.

Very welcoming and accommodating. We had a great baby shower here, nothing was too much trouble and we were not at all rushed. Food was great and lovely big pots of hot tea. Thank you all .

Visited here yesterday with a friend who has disabilities, we had been to 4 other coffee shops she wouldn't settle so came here, instantly she was calm and happy! 2 young girls serving went out of their way to ask her how she would like her milkshake and were friendly and polite!

We took over this tea shop for 2 hours for a baby shower. The staff were very pleasant and made us welcome, they even helped us to put our decorations up. There was a good selection of sandwiches, cakes and scones and our teapots were refilled. Vintage china and decor. At the end of our party the staff boxed up the remaining sandwiches and cakes for us to take home. Very good value.

Finally a tea room that understands the simple happiness giving a big pot of tea can bring. So many other places give little pots with just enough water for one cup. This place carted out a massive pot full of hot freshly boiled water.

Not only is the coffee / tea very welcome, but the food is delicious. Above all I congratulate the staff on their hospitality and warm welcome. I love coming here.

Warm welcome, felt like I was visiting an old family friend.

Lovely ladies and we went in late and they made us so welcome gorgeous cakes and great cup of tea :-) Love place for a tea break

Fantastic tea and scones really enjoyed our time there. Staff lovely food good and atmosphere great. Did not have full meal but noticed other folk and the salads look lovely as well. Will certainly go there again for full lunch.

The family went for afternoon tea and it was lovely. Lovely warm scones, both fruit and plain, and large pots...

These tea rooms are really atmospheric, we had afternoon tea which was delicious with a choice of sandwiches, cake and...

Lovely little quaint cafe, friendly staff. We didn’t eat but we’re surrounded by lovely homemade cake. 5*

We came to Fareham after 18 years away and it did not disappoint us. Clearly not all the same shops...

Five of us met up for a catch up after an absent of many years. Four had the cream teas...

We both fancied tea and cake and were losing hope while wandering through Fareham West St.

We had a lovely time at the Vintage Tea Room. I wasn't sure if it was a good place to go with a 3 year old but they were welcoming and accommodating. Lovely food, surroundings and excellent value. We will definitely be ŕeturning and would recommend.

Compré un groupon que me cuesta 5 Derecho a una merienda para dos. He usado este viernes en la tarde y estaba tan contento. Los bollos eran grandes, cálido y fresco, el té se sirve en un recipiente con tazas de porcelana y platillos, había mucha crema y mermelada, y cuando fui a pagar una segunda taza de té que fue rellenado de forma gratuita. Las habitaciones estaban limpias y ordenadas, el té, los camareros eran amables y el servicio era excelente.

What a wonderful day we have had! We hosted a baby shower for 15 people at the Vintage Tea Room and it was absolutely fabulous! The venue were extremely helpful and allowed me to decorate ahead of time. The communication with them ahead of the event was very good and I really appreciated how quickly they respond to emails. Very helpful when you're busy and trying to organise a really special day.We all had the high tea and it was delicious! The scones were fabulous and served hot which we all really enjoyed, and the cakes and sandwiches were fabulous. There was far more than we could all eat and the venue were happy to pack up all the left over cake so that we could send the mother to be back with an entire bag full to eat later on. Excellent value for money, very helpful venue and we all had a brilliant time!

Lovely afternoon tea, scones and clotted cream, in mis-matched China, with burnished silver spoons, absolutely delightful.

A group of 7 of us went for afternoon tea/cake for a baby shower. We weren't disappointed, most of us ordered high tea which comprised a round of sandwiches (our group ordered brie and bacon, ham and pickle, cheese and pickle, chicken and mayo and salmon so wide selection available), a scone (plain, fruit or cheese), slice of cake and pot of tea. I had the brie and bacon with redcurrant jelly - delicious . Followed by fruit scone which of course was accompanied by jam and clotted cream all washed down by a lot of decaf tea. The slice of cake - salted caramel (although to the selection included watermelon cake, carrot cake, chocolate fudge cake and apple and butterscotch tart to mention a few) had to be taken home to be enjoyed after dinner. The owners were welcoming and patient - 2 of our group changed their order after she had written it down, the food was super tasty and a wonderful price. Would thoroughly recommend

Hidden gem in Fareham for those who place quality up there! My friend and I chose high tea. All elements were fresh, homemade and delicious! Fab sandwiches, warm scones and the best cake I have tasted (salted caramel). Service was friendly, quick and quirky rooms and bathroom all spotless! We,ll be regular customers from now on when in Fareham! Loved it! ❤️

Fabulous afternoon tea, great prices and superb watermelon cake ! Great atmosphere and all cakes are homemade

If you want to travel back in time to a place that is both quirky and fun then this cafe is the place to go. The food is excellent and reasonably priced and all cakes are made on site by the lady who runs it and they are absolutely heavenly.

Really happy have been able to try this place. Popped in on a sunny Sunday afternoon for high tea for four. Such a cosy atmosphere and really warm, friendly staff.Everything was of a really high standard and the highlight was definitely the scones with clotted cream and jam. Would go back just for these!Cakewise the highlights were the salted caramel cake and the red velvet cake.Plenty of choice for vegetarians too.

The tea room is spotlessly clean and well decorated. The tea was enjoyable, with plenty of sandwiches and cakes. The red velvet cake was my favourite, but the scones were light and tasty as well. Tried the coffee/walnut cake but found it very plain, not enough coffee favouring for my liking.overall very enjoyable.

It's always nice to find quality, new and different places to enjoy a drink or lunch. And the Vintage Tearooms certainly meets all this criteria.A quaint little Tearooms, well appointed and full of character. The quality and selection of food is good, with the service being friendly and prompt. Definitely recommended for a visit, you won't be disappointed and I'm confident that you'll return again and again.

Lovely spot in Fareham. Sandwiches are freshly made, decent choice of teas and coffees (in a teabag though, rather then loose leaf,), and out of the 3 different cakes we had 2 of them were incredible. Loved the salted caramel and Victoria sponge but none of us was keen on the caramel apple. It was well made, we just weren't fans of the flavour. The scones tasted ok, but didn't look great and because they seemed like they were warmed in a microwave they were a bit soggy at the bottom. I don't think the jam was homemade or anything special, but who cares because it tasted good lol. It was a lovely place though and I'd definately consider going again. Most of my bad points are just there for the sake of being picky for reviewing purposes.

A lovely little popular tearoom. Tables are very nicely set out and the food is delicious. We have a Groupon cream tea and it was delicious. Only slight criticism was that the cream was not clotted, just double cream, but it was still delicious. Will definitely visit again.

Lovely afternoon tea in fantastic surroundings. Cake and scones were gorgeous. We had a very enjoyable time.

Went here for the first time today, we will be back again! Lovely little local vintage tea room, decor is beautiful, high tea for two was excellent. Reasonably priced!

Came today with my Mum and sister for a lovely Mothers day afternoon tea, plenty of delicious food to eat, very friendly staff who were extremely busy but working together as a team and getting everything done.Would definitely recommend to othersThank you

turned up today for opening around five past 10, to find the shop empty, locked up not ready for customers. Opening hours state 10am opening, so tell my why no one was there to greet us? I am highly disappointed with this as we came out of our way to visit this particular tea room, waited 15 minutes and still now the shop is not open! 20 minutes after opening hours. Not professional at all!

OK so, unusually, there was a big 21st birthday party of maybe 18 people crammed around a big set of tables but the staff weren't busy during our time there, all the other five or six tables were empty bar one other but they had been served, but for 25 minutes I sat there with my daughter waiting to order and a man slowly ambled to the table next to ours and cleaned it at glacial speed but didn't look up, ignored my 'excuse me'. The waitress came over to the big table to get some more drinks for a few of them, blanked us completely on the way back despite me saying 'hello' twice and disappeared back into the kitchen. The lady from the kitchen came out to discuss gluten free food one of the big table, not even a look in our direction.I used to come her regularly - I don't know if I'll be back. It doesn't take much just to say 'hello, sorry, I'll be with you shortly' if you are truly busy. It's rude, makes you feel undervalued so we put our coats on and left as sat staring at the kitchen no one tried to make eye contact or had the courtesy to acknowledge us. Get your customer service fixed - this isn't a big place, how can we be so invisible? So we had a big lunch somewhere nearby instead where we were acknowleged as soon as walking in.

Having read the reviews about this tea room I was happy to book a table for a friends birthday lunch. The decor is lovely, but i thought the shop needed to be better lit as it was quite dark. The service was ok but the food was disappointing, I was brought the wrong order so waited a few minutes for the correct one to come out. When it did, unfortunately the jacket potato was cold in the middle. The waitress was very apologetic and made me a sandwich as requested. We had a scone for afterwards which had been heated in the microwave, so were warm, but went very hard as they cooled down. So, overall a disappointing lunch which is a shame as the decor is lovely and the staff pleasant!

Very nice traditional tea shop that serves excellent and generously portioned cream teas. Pretty good value and decent service.

Popped into here for lunch and got seated and served very quickly - checked out the amazing looking cakes (there are a lot and all freshly made) but decided to have the daily special soup of Tomato and Basil with half a baguette. My partner had a jacket potato which came with a good side salad and some crisps. Very friendly staff and good speed of service. Clean tea rooms with funky decor. I'm sure we shall be back again - thank you.

We love visiting quaint little vintage tea rooms. So we were delighted to find this one on a recent visit to Fareham. Unfortunately it was a mistake to go into this one. We sat down at a table there were probably three tables with other customers all had been served. We decided what we wanted and sat and waited to be served. Tables were cleared around us by the staff and still we were ignored after 15 minutes !! of feeling invisible we got up and left for a nearby Costa. In my opinion this really isn't a place to visit. There are plenty of nicer much friendlier vintage tea rooms throughout Hampshire which deserve visits.

We came here for high tea for 2 and was very impressed. Great service and the staff were all friendly. The high tea was lovely and we enjoyed the violet and blackberry cake and sandwiches were very filling. They happily changed are drinks for a 50p charge as we don't drink tea or coffee. The scones were warm and seemed fresh, would go here again lovely afternoon spent in here.

Had a lovely lunch and the high tea was delicious especially the warm fresh scones. The sandwiches were fresh and full of filing.

Let me start off by saying that I love the décor. The place is inviting, especially with good looking cakes on display. I ordered a salad and my friend ordered chili con carne. His chili was very bland and although my salad looked nice, it was something I could have done at home. The salad itself was a very cheapy horrible lettuce and the coleslaw seemed like it was from Aldi down the road. Dressings were presented to me in half used Aldi containers and it was a bit off putting. I'd like to give it another go one day, the cakes look very nice and the people seem friendly.

Lovely quirky surroundings in this tea room. Superb service with friendly polite staff. Cream tea was a warm scone (choice of plain or sultana), loads of clotted cream & jam & choice of tea or coffee. All served in old style crockery & cutlery. We would certainly recommend it - all the prices are very reasonable too.

Visited late morning for coffee and cake. All aspects were high quality: the selection, the service, the taste and the value. Didn't have to wait at all and the atmosphere was very nice. Will be returning to sample more.

Our second visit here. .pretty good but not quite as nice as last time. My wife's salmon salad had what looked like tinned salmon in it, and my beef and horseradish sandwich was just that.....a sandwich served with no accompanying salad or crisps. The chocolate cake was nice but didn't really taste very chocolaty unfortunately. On the plus side the staff were very friendly and service was prompt. Tables and surroundings were all very nice too. Si, quite good but could be a bit better.

Visited with some friends for lunch although the food took 40 minutes to come out - we only had afternoon tea! Scones delicious, warm and soft. Sandwiches are average. Our server was a smoker and the smell was off putting. All that said, worth a visit - good price for great scones.

Decided to try the vintage tearooms today on this dull bank holiday Sunday and was not disappointed either, so gorgeous inside with very pleasant staff too.Ordered pot of tea for two and a ploughmans and cheese and onion toastie, both tasty with side salad and few crisps. Will go back to try one of the gorgeous cakes and coffee soon, nipped to the loo on the way out and thumbs up for cleanliness !!

My first visit to this tearoom and I shall definitely go again. The scone was warm, light and fresh with a generous helping of clotted cream (essential). The menu was varied and reasonable priced. Well worth a visit.

The vintage tea room is really quaint and is a really lovely setting for lunch. We booked ahead as there were 11 of us going to celebrate a birthday. The prices are very reasonable. Unfortunately I wouldn't rate the food as highly as the venue. The menu we were given had about ten different sandwich fillings listed. However, as we were in a larger group and had prebooked we were bought stands with a selection. We only had three different types of sandwich despite have three cake stands. They were nice and fresh though. The scones were a little strange and tasted more of bread than scone. The jam and cream both lacked flavour and we all felt they were lacking something. Again we were given a selection of cakes, which had gone rather soggy in the heat by the time we came to eating them and there were cakes on the counter we liked the look of more. The original waitress said we could ask for something different if the cake we wanted wasn't on our stand, but we never saw her again and the other one seemed a bit perturbed when we asked for some carrot cake. I think the service was ok, but drinks were forgotten after the order was taken and no one came to check everything was ok. I guess we were a big group and perhaps the service is better in smaller groups. I would go back, but I would avoid high tea and would just go in a group of two or three.

Great tea room very vintage indeed. friendly staff very good portion size amazing cakes only down side is not a lot of choice for vegetarians.
