The location isn't great it feels it would be more comfortable by the sea but it makes the best of what it has.

If you have a few hours to spare this is the place to come in Southend.

The hot chocolate is amazing and I always get marshmallows with mine, this time I had a pot of tea as I have already had 2 hot chocolates today , have to draw the line somewhere right? But I was not disappointed with my tea and it went great with my raspberry and vanilla butter cream cupcake . If you are ever in West Malling I would pop in for a little treat

Homemade goodies are served up here for a good portion of the day with daily specials on offer and various different homemade cakes. A great place to go for a light bite or afternoon tea. The only thing the place could do with is a little bit more atmosphere but I suspect that to be largely due to the staff and clientele that frequent the tea rooms.

We both opted for iced tea-cakes - just like mum used to make! Well worth a visit.

Being a vegie I haven't tried everything, but I love my goats cheese salad, the vegie breakies (with home made vegie sausages) and mouth waltering melted mozzarella wrap. Oh and nearly forgot to mention it all needs to be shared (yep can't eat a whole portition by yourself) with some gorgeouse hand-cut jacket wedges If you have room (which I rarely do so I can't comment on the whole list) try one of their yummie cakes for deserts (afternoon tea style cakes). TOP TIP, if you haven't got room for desert, get here early and they do yummie bit size cakes with your coffee or tea....to die for

We drove past Frederick's tea room today while looking for somewhere to have tea and cake. We were…read morepleased to find the lovely Frederick's and even more pleased that they had a table available for the three of us. The staff welcomed us in a genuine and friendly manner. It was obviously busy as many tables were occupied with families celebrating Mother's Day. The décor is lovely and homely. Everywhere was spotlessly clean including the bright white toilet with a great smelling hand wash! The reason for the visit was celebrating my friend's 30th birthday. The waitress even noticed her badge and congratulated her - nice touch! The cake was delicious! They had great gluten-free cakes which I tried. They have more seating available downstairs, so if it looks full, ask if they have any tables downstairs. Overall, I would highly recommend this tea room and will definitely be returning with my friends and family in the future.

Don't forget to take a home-made loaf of bread before you leave! The best bread in town!

There's easily over a 100 different teas to chose from (the lovely couple running the teehaus can guide you through the selection), and the preparation is amazing. You may find your choice of tea is served a couple of minutes before your friend's, as they're sticklers here for serving the tea at EXACTLY the right temperature and length of infusion. (If you buy loose leaf take home packs of tea they helpfully print the full instructions on the packet!) The coffee menu is thorough too, with the full Starbucks style range and beyond. (The times I've been here I've been surprised at the amount of people opting for a latte when they're surrounded by all these wonderful choices.) The food is basic but lovely. The Teahouse/Teehaus is big, airy and welcoming, with lots of room to move around between the tables. The owners are so friendly and warm you can't help but feel loved. Lovely place, lovely people and wonderful tea.
