Beautifully and tastefully decorated paying homage to all things prewar hanging on walls and fire mantle, don't miss the restroom. Even if you don't have to go? GO! It's too interesting to miss. The waitresses even dress the part with their dresses, makeup and hair perfectly quaffed. The food; well, I was pleasantly surprised. At first I thought charming quaint themed atmosphere tea room food must be either subpar or just okay. I ordered the daily special and my oh my to my surprise it was real good food served with real Hartlepool happy hospitality. I cannot fault this place. Well expect that it's too far from Miami, Florida. But when in Hartlepool England check this place out for afternoon tea with great Hartlepool charm Prewar. Don't worry you'll be transported back to present times once you get the bill. Not incredibly pricey but not incredibly cheap either I'd say it's reasonable for the food, service and charm. Enjoy.

I became accustomed to the Starbucks Caramel Hot Chocolate and was disappointed when I visited this Cafe Nero with my mother and they didn't have Caramel Hot Chocolate on the menu. Luckily, the super-helpful guy behind the counter said that he could put a shot of caramel in my Hot Chocolate along with the usual cream and marsh mallow delights and it was delicious! They are also very accomodating to my mother's weak cappucino requests. There's always a wide range of freshly baked and prepared snacks (sandwiches, cakes, cookies etc).

It shows how…read moresuccessful they are, when you realise this premises is the new one they had to acquire a couple of doors down from the original, because there was just no room for the customer base they had built up! The ladies in there are marvellous, friendly women, who definitely know their tea and cake! As you walk through the glass frontage, the decor is vintage/rustic/local, with walls filled with cute posters and twee ornaments without being sickly. The new place is light and spacious, with at least double the tables of the last little shop, which you can reserve or hope there is one free (I missed out on graduation day in November and was very grumpy!) but the thing to behold for me is the tea shelf. Wander over, and pick your tea in a mug or a pot by perusing the labels and opening the big glass Kilner jars to sniff at the gorgeous varieties of loose leaf teas inside. They do cakes well, and their Danishes are fabulous, a nice range of sandwiches and bagels means you aren't stuck for choice whether you have a sweet or savoury tooth. Another deal not to miss is their afternoon tea, now £10 for a slice of cake, scone, sandwich and unlimited tea. I've spent many an afternoon taking advantage of the unlimited tea! Check out; The chocolate mint tea The turkish delight tea The cream earl grey tea The lemon danishes Wednesleydale and mango chutney sarnies (I used to seriously rib my dad for this combo when I was in middle school, but so good) The chocolate bar cakes And some pretty good vegan bakes too

There's a massive variety of tea to choose from, and you can dictate how much you want, from a cup, to a huge pot. All the teas are loose leaf, so you really get the different flavour of each tea. I've discovered some personal favourites, thanks to this place. All of the cakes are homemade, and some cater to dietary requirements, so there is a gluten free option. The food is always lovely, and brilliant for lunch, or just spending a quiet time in a cafe. If you like the old, romantic cafe aesthetic, or you just want to try various teas, this beautiful little place is for you. Would recommend for young couples, students, and people who want somewhere to relax.

I prefer the coffee here - there isn't as much choice as Starbucks with the endless variations, but the coffee tastes more authentic and the staff feel more genuine. The location in Teesside park in the middle next to the public loos is easy to get to and can't be missed - you can sit and relax while watching all the folks rush by with their shopping (and you don't have to climb any stairs or go through other shops to get to it - so its easier if you've done a bit of shopping yourself )

You get some salad and some crisps on the plate with your burger, and it's extremely filling. Whether want a quick bite to eat, a take-away sandwich, just some tea or a full meal, it's great for everything. Take-away tends to be just salads and sandwiches etc. but you can get burgers, jacket potatoes, paninis etc. if you sit in the cafe. The waiters are all friendly and professional, but it also has a cosy cafe feel to the place. It can get quite busy around lunch time so, unless you're grabbing take-away, expect to spend some time there. You never feel like you're being rushed to finish your food though, it's all very relaxed.

There is a large seating area to the entrance, but unfortunately when you enter, there isn't enough room between the entrance and the counter which makes it extremely difficult to queue because of all the tables and chairs and people. I think the entire layout should or could have been better thought out. You will understand this if you go on a weekend and grab a seat as soon as you walk in, you'll probably be knocked by other customers waiting to be served and get the odd handbag wrapped around your head! There are always plenty of staff and the turnover of orders seems to run smoothly, not a long wait for your order. There is ample seating, but like I say, could have been better thought out. If you love coffee and want a sit down or even a smoke, I highly recommend this little coffee shop.
