    The waitress was very pleasant and efficient everything went smoothly I wanted only brown bread and that was no bother. Lovely tea served to us, tasty delicious . Was given box with the ones we couldn’t eat to enjoy later at home. We had afternoon tea and we got plenty. A welcome birthday gift for me and my twin. We both finished of with a coffee enjoyable experience.

    Lovely afternoon tea. The sandwiches were very flavoursome and the scones were warmed which was nice. The cakes were delicate and beautiful. Thank you.
