BUT the fact that the cutlery and crockery were utilitarian and old, the table cloth was on upside down and there was no adornment or additions to the table like flowers, were a disappointment. Our original table was set up outside but due to the wind and chilly weather we asked to be moved inside. The tea room was disappointing. An unused bar, clutter of unused items, and plants in need of some tlc added to the disappointment. Flowers on the tables and music would have gone a long way to improve the ambience of what should have been a special experience for £40 a person. Finally , the bathrooms need an upgrade. Shabby and not too clean.

My first British afternoon tea experience!…read more Thanks to Harriet's, I enjoyed it overall. To start, with two scones, 2x 3 types of finger sandwiches and 3 desserts, one Special Afternoon Tea is enough for two, with the addition of another pot of tea. Of course not knowing anything, I started with the scone with clotted cream and jam. As a starter, it worked for me. Great texture on their scone - slightly crunchy, crumbly outside with a moist inside. Their sandwiches were delightfully light, but had good, subtle flavor. You get cucumber and cream cheese, smoked salmon and Suffolk ham sandwiches with the special. The latter two served with a clotted cream. The desserts were also excellent. Can't complain about a good macaroon, and the tart had good flavor. The Oreo cheesecake was good, but unfortunately it was no New York cheesecake. I did appreciate the tiny Oreo on top! The service started off rocky with the waitress not seeing us apparently. After that, things went smoothly. Even though I don't have much experience with afternoon tea, I can't imagine other places doing much better. I definitely recommend this place.

As one of the few tea rooms left in central Cambridge, Harriets has a brilliant "old world" and…read morequaint atmosphere inside, with waitresses dressed up in old school outfits, brilliant décor and even a small piano for the occasional live music they do. They have an array of baked goods and pastries available, most of them of fairly quality, as well as a savoury menu including all day english breakfast and a cracking Welsh rarebit! Unfortunately though, the service here is erratic, with waitresses standing around chatting while there are clearly tables waiting to be served, and a general lack of direction in the overall movement of the staff. Overall, an average experience that is boosted only by the decor and setting of the tearoom. Honestly, I think Patisserie Valerie's cakes are better, but is much less of an "experience" given that PatVal is a pretty common chain now!

Great little coffee/tea shop in the beautiful village of Cranford St Andrew on the outskirts of…read moreKettering. The cafe is relatively new to the village having been converted from an old blacksmiths (hence the name). The coffee shop is owned by the same couple who run the Coffee Place in Kettering and they have stuck with the same winning formula. Compact lunchtime menu with teatime treats. Home made biscuits and cakes make for good eating. The interior is contemporary while maintaining the tradition and history of the building. Everytime we have been there the place is buzzing with a good collection of locals, walkers and business people. I would strongly recommend this is place as a point to meet people or grab a coffee after a walk around the village.

The scones were lovely and the cakes and tarts... well, where on earth do you start?? The tea was good - we all had good old English breakfast. We did ask for more hot water, which did not materialize, but I think we were all done by then anyway. They will pack up the left-overs for you to take home without any fuss. 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.

Slightly crunchy outside but soft on the inside. The plain scones were equally amazing, but the clotted cream and jam really took them over the top for me. Just when I thought I couldn't eat anything else, we had a brownie that the group was sharing and those who had tried it insisted I have a bite. It was a collective statement that none of us had ever had a brownie so delicious. For drinks we had a variety of teas (chocolate tea, hot chocolate, etc.) and they were all wonderful. Service was a delight the entire time as well. The decor is one of a kind and every single detail had been thought out, from the framed pictures to the trinkets on display, to the seating and tablecloths. This place is a gem and I can not recommend it enough.

Sadly, small tea rooms aren't really around anymore - but Teacake? Teacake bucks the trend and manages to survive in a completely residential area. It's tiny here. I'm talking 3-4 tables, so if you want to visit, go with patience! The outside is all thatched roof and pastel walls - the eptiome of quaint. Inside, you have your ordering station and small goods store on the right and the seating to the left. The cakes all looked delicious, but I went for a simple victoria sponge; it's the marker for all coffee shops and tea rooms. My mama went for a scone, laden with currants and topped with jam and cream. Everything was delicious, sweet but not overpowering, and washed down with a lovely cuppa. Soak in the surroundings and put the world to rights - just don't hog the table during busy periods!
