The overall experience was amazing food freshly made, plenty of choice, and plenty of it well worth every penny. Staff were really pleasant and attentive. Will definitely be back. Thank you"

"Booked here for afternoon tea to celebrate my mum's birthday. The setting is beautifully quirky and we spent a lot of time looking around and spotting the different items on display. The staff are so friendly and helpful, and spent lots of time explaining the menu and options of cakes and tea. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the cherry and dark chocolate scones! We all had a great time and it was a perfect place to celebrate. Would definitely recommend and we will be returning!"
