I've tried dozens of little tea rooms over the years, but this one is one of the absolute best I've…read moreever been to. The decor is fantastic, relaxing, and quaint, but more importantly, the food is superb. Everything we tried, from the milkshakes to the desserts, were absolutely finger-licking good. The quality was simply superb. This place is worth going out of one's way to visit. If you're looking for a fantastic lunch, it's where it's at. One note, the place tends to be busy, so it can be a bit of a wait for the food or for the staff, but the food is worth the wait.

It's a little out of the way, closer to the water, but the food is so good that it justifies the trip. Chill beach vibe decor. The service was great. The staff was friendly and kind. We got a sando, the breakfast plate and French toast. The sausage egg and ham was perfect. The French toast was also amazing, possibly the best French toast I've ever had. It was so soft and fluffy, each bite was perfect.

They are made thin, similar to a crepe, but with the taste and texture of a pancake. They make both savory or sweet pancakes - with loads of varieties. And if you can't find something to your liking, they are willing to make a few changes to the items on their menu. This is a cute location, around the block from The Shambles, everyone here is friendly and helpful, the whole experience is delightful.

They do their best to turn tables, but diners, by and large, seem to linger. Rude, but that's people. The staff was very friendly and the food was great! We tried the Corn Fritters and then a special Asian Pork Belly Benedict... both excellent! Good coffee and tea and some nice-looking lattes, etc. Oh, and some great pastries and brownies!

I was slightly disappointed at the food. I went for a mozzarella, pesto and roasted vegetables panini, but the pesto appeared to be from a jar and the roasted vegetables were red peppers in brine from a jar. I think I'd have been better sticking to the cakes, which looked delicious. The panini tasted fine, but it just could have been so much better! While we were eating a large school/college crowd came in on their lunch break and sat at one of the large tables, I suspect the cafe is near to the school. It wasn't too noisy, but just meant it got quite busy and there weren't many tables free, if you are looking to visit around that time. Anyway, food aside, the place is very quaint with nice key features around the place making up the decor. From the seating area you can see some rocking chairs which are replicas of historical chairs. Upstairs is a small library with computers to work at and also a section on the history of the area, which I enjoyed reading. Staff were very friendly and one volunteer stood talking to my dad about the area for some time, which was very nice. They also have a small area of things for sale, mostly kitchen items, but they were really nice and I would go back again just to pick up some of their nice tea towels and tote bags.
