When I got there I found out it shuts before the advertised time on the web. When I pointed this…read moreout the waitress didn't care a jot even though I pointed out this could be very disappointing for customers coming from out of the area. I have several food intolerances so when asking about the ingredients in their homemade cakes I got a message back via the waitress that she can't guarantee the cakes were free from what I was intolerant to. As people with food intolerances are always ending up having to go without gorgeous food, I asked if I could have more detail of what was in the cakes so I could make a decision on what it was I could or couldn't eat, just in case there was something I could have. This was very obviously an inconvenience to the waitress and the manager who had baked them. She tried again to say she couldn't guarantee anything because obviously this was the quickest way to solve the issue for herself, but after explaining that I'd like to try to see if there was something I could eat, it was again very plain that I was wasting her time. It was late afternoon and they weren't busy, so I would have appreciated a couple of minutes of her time without the attitude. After finding out there was indeed a piece of cake I could eat, I sat down to enjoy it only to be served it with more attitude by the waitress. If she could have got away with grunting at me I sure she would have! I unfortunately had to ask for a pot of hot water as the tea didn't come with one, and AGAIN got a look saying 'are you bothering me again?!'. Cleanliness was also not great with tea-stained table clothes, dying roses on the table, and also dust on the teapot holding the roses which was next to an open sugar bowl which no doubt had the same amount of dust in it! Also, amazingly, a dog walking around the kitchen area with it's bed behind the serving counter!! (Yes, I am about to inform environmental health dept!!) Lastly, my table was being cleared before I had finished. I did notice however, that the other table still in there didn't have their table touched, so I'm guessing that was a touch of nastiness from the waitress also. I was there looking for a place to take 18-20 friends for my birthday which is coming up soon as we fancied a gorgeous afternoon tea, but we will definitely be going somewhere else after that experience!

We ordered two meals and coffees and had some fantastic food delivered. They had quite a few staff around in the kitchen including the chef, which alone is unusual, I assume there will be fewer staff once they have been running for a few weeks. I had a roasted red onion and blue cheese tart and it arrived with the freshest of salad and watercress and with a heap of cous cous with butternut squash. It was delicious. We also tried some of their cake and my carrot cake was excellent. I'm definitely going back there and I'll update the review once it's been running for a few weeks.

Well, it was a good thing we did, since we didn't get to go back for afternoon tea... Just as the name suggests, it is located right by the canal. It was very picturesque, peaceful and relaxing. They also have seating upstairs, and had histories on the canal, with photos posted all around the wall. Their cakes looked amazing, but I decided not to order any dessert on this day. Yes I know, a big mistake! Our friend ordered Heavenly Hot Chocolate, and it looked so pretty! We went with Teashop House Blend Tea, and Earl Grey. The young boy who brought the teas (I hear this is a family-run business) was trying to very careful not to mix them up. But the funny thing was, he totally mixed the tea up! LOL. We didn't realize until half way through... I thought the House Blend tea tasted so much like Earl Grey. For lunch, we had Ham, Cheese & Chutney Sandwich and Eggs Benedict. They were both tasty, nice portion, and filling. Our friend went with something healthier, and ordered one of their vegan sandwiches. It is nice to have that option if you want or need vegan dish. We had a nice quick lunch here. It was adorable and cozy. The food was good, not amazing, but good. I think the sweets might be better than the actual food...I will never know, unless I go back! Lesson learned: don't never expect your plan to go just the way you planned them...and have your dessert first!

Other reviews had high marks. I left mostly unsatisfied. Beans from a can, fries that were standard, and ham omelette was for me not anything to rave about. About a 16 walk from our hotel on Bath Road and we passed a half dozen restaurants to get to this location. Fortunately we were able to figure out the bus system to get to our next destination. Was it a hearty meal? There was plenty of food for sure, I just lost my appetite for how plain it all was. Again service was fast. Food was not as good as I was hoping for.

The cafe is spacious, with tabled seating and also sofa seating as well. It's beige coloured walls are littered with cute artwork that you can buy or just admire. They have leaflets at the back with what going on the local area. The menu was limited, with your usual coffes and teas and food wise just tea cakes, toast, scones which they put in the fridge which I knew would be hard when taken out. They sell homade cake, but non took my fancy. They sold sweets which took me way back to my teenage hood, just in the way they were packaged and displayed. I had caffe latte, with a muffin which was packaged so I knew it would be moist which is what it was when I took a bite. After a quite chilly ride, these both went down well. I would try Coach House again, becuse the ride on route their was lovely....so yeah spring/summer and a wider menu will get me peddling there.
