Beautiful yet casual dining experience! We ordered 3 specials; 2 open steak sandwiches and 1 beetroot risotto. Cooked/seasoned/garnished perfectly. Lovely cafe with an abundance of natural light, accompanied by tentative staff and airy space. 50 for 3 meals, 3 drinks and an additional side. Highly recommend. Gluten free options available also*

My fiance works here and took me here for my birthday. Visited England for a week. First time having an Afternoon Tea and it was amazing. The staff wanted to meet me while I visited. They was all lovely. The best thing I ate was the salmon sandwich that was part of the Afternoon tea. Probably the best thing I ever had. Their cream cheese and chives pulled it off greatly. The other sandwiches was amazing and the soup was great. I loved trying scones with cream and jam for the first time. The food is great. I think the tea cups and plates are adorable. I had a great time! Thank you! I also love the natural lighting and atmosphere of the place. Thank you so much!

We thought we would try this cafe again as we had not been here in a while. We were greeted by a friendly and polite member of staff and shown promptly to a table. The selection of food is quite wide and a great selection of pasties and cakes. You order at the till but you have to set your own table as cutlery isn't provided by the staff. The cafe is very well spaced out and you can feel quite comfortable and relaxed They also have comfortable sofa type chairs to sit on. I would say probably best to book these if possible. I ordered the 8oz bacon joint and we also had risotto. The latte I had was really good My food was very well cooked and served hot. It was really tasty My partner said the risotto was served hot and was very good. Overall it was a great experience and definitely will be going back. Price wise this cafe is at the top of the price scale so best to be aware before hand. The quality is definitely worth paying for. Well deserved 5 stars from me

Great afternoon tea in well set out tables for safer distancing. The staff were very efficient, polite and attentive as well having a smile on their faces all the time. It felt organised, safe as well as relaxed for the customer. When booking the table they were very informative and friendly. The food was very filling; a selection of 3 open sandwiches, a warm scone, jam and cream then 4 different cakes/desserts. I had an afternoon tea voucher and with the August Eat out to help out the second afternoon was free. Would highly recommend this place but book in advance so you are not disappointed, although this is not essential.

Upon entering, as a walk-in party of 11, the staff were prompt in offering us the options for seating arrangements to suit our needs best. The offers of drinks, and the speed of receiving them was swift, especially considering the beginning of Dinner service and the relatively busy service. The whole table enjoyed their meal, with almost the entire table opting to choose something different. My Open Steak Sandwich was presented beautifully. The steak cooked perfectly, and balanced well by the Button Mushrooms and Caramelised Red Onion; this is a testament to the skill of the chef, and not a single person at our table had anything but positive feedback for their meal. Strongly recommend this eatery if you enjoy good food and excellent service. If you are passing through, especially given its convenience to a beautiful Garden Centre, stop in for a bite.
