Cons:

• "My friend who is vegan ordered the vegan pancakes and unfortunately we had to send these back as they were tough and so difficult to cut through and chew."
• "The sandwiches were cut unevenly so one was tiny compared to the other, you could tell they had been made in the morning as they were dry."
• "The festive afternoon tea was just, something to fill the stomach. The sandwiches were quite poor, the scones were nice and the cookies and cake were just okay."

• "Staff are helpful, patient and kind."

• "The service was a little scattered, and the afternoon tea menu was subpar."
• "As soon as we arrived we were greeted by warm & friendly staff. The tea room was clean & tidy & aesthetically pleasing! The festive afternoon tea was very good."

• "The place was empty but ‘only 1 table free’ we went upstairs to 5 tables full of empty cups and rubbish."
• "I am writing this review honestly and objectively. The food was nothing special and the hot chocolate was just average."
