On our hunt, the Hardware Cafe came up and we decided to give it a try and were not disappointed! The only negative thing was that my stomach could not accommodate the entire contents of the dish!

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!

The men behind the tills think it's reasonable to serve men first and leave the women waiting…read more 'First come first serve' policy doesn't apply here. Absolutely disgusted and appalled so I went over to other sweet shops in the area and found a higher quality of food and service. Niralla state this doesn't happen but it's a regular occurrence which they are fully aware of. They will be happy to discuss but what's the point if this keeps happening to a lot of women?

We went there for lunch the rest of the group had lamb-shank which were done just right, fish and chips were good, and a jacket potato was really well cooked. Unfortunately my macaroni-cheese had over-done pasta, lumpy sauce an under-done top. The tearoom was clean modern and well presented. The two communal toilets were also clean if a little rough around the edges, having a changing table was very welcome, though it was missing a strap and was placed in such a was as as you changed the baby the hand dryer kept turning on and off! It also sells ice-cream and yummy looking cakes and all in all is recommended and the cherry on the cake afterwards was going to watch boats using the lock.

I was excited to come here for breakfast after hearing many good things…read more Firstly the decor is adorable and they really have created a nice environment to sit in. It's very cosy and comfortable, with lots of shabby chic furnishings. The music selection seemed a bit eclectic - Robbie Williams' 'Rudebox' was blaring out when we first got there, which seemed like an odd choice for little old Tring on a Sunday morning. The breakfast menu is simple but covers all the basics, with both sweet (waffles, pancakes) and savoury (eggs/full English) options. I went for poached eggs with bacon & avocado while the other 2 chose pancakes and waffles. The food and drinks were all lovely and prices very reasonable. I've marked down because of 2 things: the wait for food and the service. The food took nearly 40 minutes, which seems an awful long time for 3 simple breakfasts! The service was friendly but very non-attentive - we had to call the waitress over whenever we wanted anything, including to order our food and drinks. There also wasn't enough cutlery on the table when the food arrived and we had to ask for it twice, which was a pain given the already long wait on the food. A really lovely setting and good ideas with the food and drink, but there seem to be a few teething problems which need ironing out.

Best spot for a quick breakfast and snacks in the Luton Airport…read more There's a big breakfast sandwich station with different combinations of eggs, bacon, sausage and veggies on croissants, biscuits and bagels. I wish they'd just had a plain egg and cheese option, but they're pre-made with various sauces beforehand. You can find yummy juices, fruit cups, porridges, potato chips, nut and candy mixes, and beverages. There's also a huge, clean, trendy seating area with tons of tables and chairs so you can spread out.

The prices seem reasonable for airport food.

Situated on an A426 between Rugby and Lutterworth, the calm within is amazing and the wealth of gift ideas and quality goods for home and garden. Visit their website and read about the history of the farm and, in particular the barn itself? It's an education. An absolute must, and my main reason for visiting regularly, is the refreshment area. It really is sublime. There is a small seating area right opposite the counter which, in the colder months, has a log burning fire. There is a larger and very comfortable seating area in an upstairs lounge with mixed seating.sofas, armchairs, tables.another log burning fire which is regularly attended to. Sink into one of the cozy chairs and watch the traffic pass yet at the same time feeling, as if perhaps, you are somewhere else? An impressive array of homemade cakes etc., awaits your attention when you place your order which, even if you choose to take a seat in the upstairs lounge, will be brought to you by a member of the pleasant staff. For a light lunch you may try their delcious homemade soup with a roll? I would be happy to recommend this establishment to my female contacts as a place for the unaccompanied traveller to stop and rest a while in a spotlessly clean and safe environment. Worth a detour!!
