A friend introduced me to this place and I've never stopped going back. Think of the quintessential…read moreEnglish Tea Room, put it next to a small beck in the middle of the English countryside, with a garden overlooking the Somerset Levels, with Glastonbury Tor on the horizon. Add some locally sourced organic food, and a proprietor that caters for dietary requirements AND an art gallery and you'll get close to Annie's Tea Rooms. Probably the best Banoffee Pie I've ever tasted, not to mention the salmon and pasta; oh and the ice cream. This a place where you can wake up and smell the coffee and STILL be in the same place!

Cheese that purported to be from a local farm resembled the mark-down section of Lidl, whilst the salad items they insisted on decorating this dish with included tinned sweetcorn, flacid leaves and pre-chopped peppers left over from c1969 Bejams frozen foods. Branston pickle and a white roll that even Greggs would throw out, topped off this diabolical mess. So much for supporting local farmers and fresh produce. Seriously, what is wrong with people?

Plus, despite the busy buzz, there was a choice of spaces to sit. The tea was generous a large pot for two (non of this tiny cup for a small fortune business). The florentine was large and gooey and delicious, the fat slab of apple tart was gobbled in an instant. The service was efficient, friendly and relaxed no feeling of having to leave as soon as we'd finished. I would recommend and return for sure. Thank you

One of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Served with a choice of either fries or chunky wedges (think roast potato wedges and you'll get the idea). The cafe makes its own hot sauces and strawberry jams, all of which you should try if you get a chance as they're all scrumptious. You can even buy jars of the sauces to take home. Service is warm & friendly and you're made to feel incredibly welcome the second you walk in the door to the moment you leave. If you're on the lookout for something a bit more genuine and satisfying than what the nearby commercial chains can offer this is the place!

I selected the Small Farmhouse breakfast which consisted of sausage, bacon, egg, hash brown, mushrooms, baked beans and a slice of toast with butter and jam. My husband selected the Farmhouse breakfast which had the same ingredients but twice as much. Of special note are the sausages which were very meaty and that the breakfast was cooked to perfection with none of the grease that can often be present. They also serve a full range of hot drinks so I was able to select a decaf latte. The menu includes some sandwich-type options and there were a few scones etc. for those who don't have our appetites. Service was fast for us. We arrived soon after they opened so only about 4 tables were already filled, so I cannot speak to service speed when they are busy, but they looked to have plenty of staff on duty. I forgot to take photos of the food but it was excellent.

We had planned to have an afternoon tea at this lovely little café while visiting Newbury. We…read moredecided to go for a quick lunch, a couple days before the planned afternoon tea. 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!
