Really lovely place to relax and have tea. Fantastic food with the ability to pick what you want. Salt beef sandwich was a winner. Service was really personal and warm.

My dad visited today and is singing your praises. He says you provided the best toasted sandwich he’s ever had in his 77 years.

Went here today as a rite of passage with my lovely driving instructor. It's a beautiful tea shop with a lovely history. Fantastic food and drinks and the staff are wonderful!

Have passed here so many times as used to work locally and live in nearby Bromley. Always wanted to check it out.Popped in for lunch with my Mum after a hospital appointment and was very happy with the food, service and the pot of tea!Uniquely British with fine attention to detail and quality. I've seen some reviews here about being overpriced, but I would far rather pay more to eat nice food than go to a greasy spoon. I thought it was reasonably priced given the high standards.It is a very busy cafe but then it is always full of customers... Because it is popular. We chose to sit outside for more space on our visit. I thought it was fabulous!

Cozy place with a great atmosphere, clean and tidy, you can breathe a little English air in this bar. The bathrooms are clean. Beautiful service plates, colorful and artistic. Staff friendly and always attentive to the needs of the customers. We went on a Tuesday, the food was quite fast. Buononil sandwich and cake, liked the salad as a side dish. In our bill was in the average. I recommend it.

A really lovely little find of a cafe. Quirky decor, delicious food and great service. I popped in on a Friday at 2pm-it was very busy but the food and the service made up for a bit of a wait to be served. Portion sizes were generous and the food was freshly prepared and the servers were lovely.

We stopped for a coffee and toast and could not believe the price. £3.95 for two pieces of plain sliced bread and then charged £3.60 for a little pot of marmalade to have with it. I’m sorry but I won’t be returning with those prices.

After spending £75 on three cream tea's, which included a couple of sandwiches, I was disgusted that I was charged for a coffee I had during the lunch.The place has far too many tables which makes it uncomfortable.The food was very average and the tea very weak, hence I ordered a coffee which wasn't much better.The toasted sandwiches looked nice but I won't be returning for the above reasons.

Me and my daughter  were sitting in this small delightful Tea Room this morning and what a find!We were greeted by the lovely owner who made us so welcome. An array of homemade fayre tempting our taste buds, especially the homemade cakes  that are baked fresh every morning. The food was scrumptious and the coffee well made.The atmosphere was truly wonderful. It was like everyone were friends.Each table boasted a mishmash of beautiful antique cups and saucers and the walls were adorned with black and white photos of patrons in years gone by, and for those who reach 90 years of age, their photos take pride of place too.You feel enveloped in a vail of nostalgia. My Mum would have loved it and memories whirled. I felt happy and content.Sitting at the table at the side of us were two elderly ladies 97 year old Dorothy and 87 year old Anne.They are  frequent visitors and conversation soon sparked. Both me and my daughter felt very comfortable chatting with them, such lovely ladies who came from that great generation of my Mum and Dad, how honoured we felt to talking with them. They've been friends for 60s years.I took a few photos of the place because I was really taken by it. I asked Dorothy and Anne if they would allow me to take a photo of them together and they were pleasantly surprised saying, well this hasn't happened to us before'. I took the photo and sent it to Anne. They were delighted. Now they have a memory too.Their husbands died within a year of each other
