They also have a nice little gift shop. Parking might be a challenge if school is in session and about to let out as there is only street parking and a school across the road.

Bunting hung around the window with background music playing. Beautiful delicious home made cakes, homemade soup, paninis etc. Today I had the orange and almond cake which knocked my socks off it tasted so good. You could smell and see the orange zest within the moist sponge cake. It was served on a china plate with a china handled dessert fork. The expresso coffee was served in a quaint duck egg blue expresso cup with a humming bird print only £1.50, it was good coffee. The sugar cubes with tongs sat on the side in a china bowl. The tea room was busy and I can see why as the service is good and the cakes even better. This place is a winner! xoxo

Jackie was very accommodating with our booking and ensured we had everything we could want. I had spoken to Lauren (the vegan baker) the week before when we was in there & she very kindly offered to make my daughters favourite cake (she has a dairy/egg allergy so all cakes have to be vegan). My daughter, of course felt very special, being able to choose which vegan cake would be there when we came back the following week. The cakes are delicious, the setting is lovely, the coffee is good and the staff are fantastic. We will be back time after time.

Very pleasant and inviting. They had a lunch offer of a jacket potato and quiche and salad, and a good selection of sandwiches and cakes. Large portion sizes too. And they had decaf tea. There is also fresh traditional ice cream with waffles, and the tea comes in traditional cups and saucers and lovely teapots. And all proceeds goes to the charity The AADC Research helping children with the rarest brain diseases. A really good idea!

It is often very busy as all the locals come here for lunch. They do some extremely huge yummy sarnies and rolls which always come with an amazing complex salad and crisps, jacket potatoes, some delicious open sandwiches with home made fillings, chicken caesar, egg mayonnaise, prawn and many others and the very attractive cakes which are mainly hand made and decorated. There is a wide range of drinks to choose from and very good teas and coffees. It has a very trendy style and you get served in pretty mismatched cups and saucers, dainty plates and so on. It feels a bit like you are in Brighton. Staff are sweet and courteous. Only thing is food takes a while as it is all freshly prepared. It's very cosy and nice , I love it. Nothing else like it round here- unique.

Maybe they can cope with tables of two but definitely not more than that.

All she wanted for her birthday was a nice afternoon tea. We left London and were basically driving sort of toward the coast just stopping wherever we found a tea shop. Unfortunately, every tea shop we hit was closed because of some bank holiday we were unaware of. Except one! We got to Glynde, parked outside this tea shop, went in, and found a large sign that said "cash only". OMG this wasn't our day. We had to go to the next town over to use the ATM which sucked, but we weren't in any hurry and we really liked the look and feel here. We came back, got seated, opened the menu, and right at the top it said afternoon tea available with reservation only. We were devastated. I saw the look in my wife's eye and there was no way I was not getting her this afternoon tea! I approached the woman working and explained our situation and before I could even fight for the experience she told me not to worry, she would get us taken care of. BLESS HER! We had a wonderful visit and would recommend the experience to everyone in the area. Fast forward to this year. I knew how much my wife loved that visit and decided to reach out and ask if they had any ideas of what I could get her for her birthday this year. Joanne reached back out with an amazing gift and shipped it to us and it amazingly arrived on her birthday! She also included a nice birthday card for her! Amazing people that went out of their way twice to make us happy. They will forever be apart of our story and hopefully we have the chance to return soon! Thank you!!!

The service was amazing. Everyone was so kind. I'd absolutely come here again!

Perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside! Served quite warm as well. Pretty alright tea finger sandwiches overall; the cucumber sandwich had a nice lemon zing to it though the smoked salmon sandwich and egg sandwich had bread that was a bit on the stale side. Regarding desserts, the raspberry macaron was very tasty and had a great slight chew to it but the red velvet cake was pretty dry. There were more food items at the tea service but I'm just highlighting the most noteworthy ones. :p For tea I had the jasmine lychee. Satisfyingly bold lychee taste! Recommend if you want something bright-fruity with slight tartness. Service was very polite and all-smiles but could've been more attentive. I'd say I would return here mainly for the tea and the scones!

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!
