Mothers Day Surprise!…read more We wanted to take the Mothers somewhere nice and out of town and had seen The Garden Kitchen had been visited by a number of our friends and family on Facebook, all giving great reviews and I can see why! We arrived for final service at 6pm and as you can imagine it was very busy on Mothers Day. The maître d' came straight over to us to let us know how long it would be until we were seated and continuously gave us progress updates. Whilst waiting we perused the small shop of local produce, had a drink and soaked up our surroundings. The Tea Room is a new addition to Holden Clough Nursery being built in the last few years, but looks like it should have always been there! It is beautiful and sympathetically designed to its surroundings. So, the food....WOW! I'd seen pictures but when our Afternoon Tea arrived on a mini picnic bench I felt like clapping!! (In fact, I think I did!!) Such a great idea and adds a little bit of originality and quirkiness to your experience. Everything on my picnic bench was delicious. The Mushroom soup was silky, creamy and full of flavour. The mini Roast Beef Dinner served in an individual yorkshire pudding was beautiful and of course came with a little jug of gravy and beef was tender and pink. The scone was fresh and light with jam that had just the right sweetness and fruit mix. My other main highlight was the Rocky Road, I'm not usually a fan because its too rich and sweet but O-M-G this was amazing. I still find myself thinking about it now two days on. The chocolate melts in your mouth to find small nuggets of biscuit and mini marshmallows.....all washed down with a great cup of coffee. John & Kate who own and run The Garden Kitchen have done a fanstastic job transforming Holden Clough Nursery over the last few years. The service, quality of food and surroundings are 10/10. We will be coming back during the day to visit the nursery (and no doubt the Garden Kitchen too). Thank you for a fantastic evening...and the Mums loved it!! : )

I went with my mum, sister and partner for the Valentine's afternoon tea, it was great it was so different from traditional afternoon tea you got soup in a tea cup, two open top sandwiches and a mini quiche which was a nice change from just sandwiches. The cakes you got was a scone. A mini red velvet cake, a heart biscuit, marshmallows with chocolate, profiterole with white chocolate and a mini love potion in a glass boot. We got a glass of pink proseco it was £19.99 each which is a little expensive for the place as its a tree nursery but they do a different theme for different seasons so it's well worth a visit. I would defiantly go

I visited The Mount tearoom last weekend for my dads birthday. First impressions were great, I…read moreloved it! They have plenty of parking on site and you can see a large tent on the property which I believe they hire out for private events. The first thing I spotted outside, which I was really excited about was a Little Free Library book shed, which I know from when I lived in America. It is a book exchange; take a book, leave a book, book swap! I was very impressed to find one there! We had booked a table in advance, which I would probably recommend to avoid disappointment as there aren't many tables, but you can also eat outside. The decor is really nice and very fitting for a tea room. We were shown to our table straight away and the staff were really nice. We decided to order sandwiches and some cake, but they do afternoon tea and ice cream as well. Between us we ordered a bottle of prosecco and I shared a sandwich with a fellow diner, and was glad I did as otherwise I wouldn't have been able to fit in my cake! I went for the Wensleydale cheese and caramelised onion sandwich. Which was really nice! It might have been a bit cheesy had I had both parts of the sandwich. It also came with a nice side salad. For dessert there was lots of choice, including Victoria sandwich, coffee and walnut and lemon cake. I went for the New York cheesecake with strawberry. The cheesecake was delicious! Next time I would like to try the ice cream from Sargent's to see if it is as good as what I remember from when I was young! I can't wait to go back to the tearoom and try something different and next time I will take a book for the library! I would definitely recommend it to friends and family.

Staff are accommodating and although advertised to close at 1600 ( too early) I had a cream tea at 1600. All good, recommended. They do light lunches too, I am sure that they are good.

Whilst they don't serve breakfast per se there were breakfasty things on the menu they offered to make scrambled eggs for my other half who was craving eggs... So he had eggs and beans on toasty and I had cheese on toast, with tea and a mocha... Everything was delicious and a great price... We will definitely be back and will recommend to all friends and family!

An adorable hidden gem. This traditional tearoom is set up in the lovely home of the former mayor…read more Booking is required but the food is home cooked by the lovely chef Alan, and is delicious. It's an older crowd so the atmosphere is very peaceful and relaxed. The service is quick but never rushed. The staff are so attentive- Linda, the hostess, was friendly and very helpful. This is a great place for a Sunday dinner with family in the countryside! Top tip. Save room for pudding!

We were initially planning to visit Forge Bakehouse after some great reviews, but the look of this…read moreplace from the outside was enough to get us intrigued. Gorgeous tearoom in the antique quarter. The service is great, the food delicious (wish I'd taken a photo of the army of cakes they had on offer...!) and all of the pretty crockery is just beyond adorable. We even had someone playing piano live in the front room! Would highly recommend to anyone in the area! We split one traditional afternoon tea and one sandwich between two, which meant that we could try the cakes but without having too much of a sugar rush. Would recommend that unless you're super super hungry!

Jameson's is located on a cool part of Abbeydale road, surrounded by reclamation shops, delis and…read morequirky little gift shops. After having a good mooch around these, we arrived at Jameson's, which greets you with a suitably old fashioned look and feel. Staff are smart- male staff wear bow ties (but not necessarily black or white), there is a huge selection of cakes on the counter and it really looks like a 'proper' tea room if you know what I mean. We had an afternoon tea- they have a few varieties but all based around sandwiches, scones and cake. The traditional version allows you to choose only one sandwich filling but the others provide four, plus other additions. I had the traditional, plus a mini bottle of prosecco and my sister had the Splendid, which had a range of sandwiches (cucumber and Brie, prawn, ham and mustard and something else). It was presented beautifully and I loved the mismatched crockery. You get four finger sandwiches, one large scone with jam and cream (or curd with the Splendid)- we could choose from plain, fruit or chocolate orange, and you can choose your cake from the selection on the counter. These are generally sponges and loaf type cakes rather than dainties. The tea selection was great and additionally there are several kinds of champagne and prosecco on the menu, but only served by the bottle (!). There are three mini 20cl proseccos if you just want a glass. As usual after the scone I couldn't actually manage any of my raspberry and white chocolate Victoria sponge, but it was packaged up for us to take home. Staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful, food was great and the menu seemed good value- the most expensive afternoon tea is £80 for two but includes a whole bottle of their £50 Pol Roget Champagne plus all the best cakes and sandwiches. Maybe another time... Jameson's is well set up for small children with wipes and other useful things in the loo (which has a changing mat), plus several high chairs tucked around the corner.

I had a tasty egg sandwich while my counterparts had the Cornish pasty which they enjoyed. My daughter ate her whole sandwich too which was a miracle in itself. The tea and coffee were lovely but the real star was dessert. Delicious pear and almond ice cream for my husband while I had an out of this world cake. I seriously contemplated buying the entire cake. They even opened a package of biscuits that my mother in law wanted to try and fixed it up for her. They have a small variety of grocery items as well. Truly worth a stop!

My first visit to this place and I was sooo disappointed. The place is lovely, the staff tried to…read morebe helpful but my food was very very disappointing. As a vegetarian there was an extremely limited choice. Two starters (both pastry) I chose a mediterranean veg pasty. this was very bland (forgot seasoning?) also very soggy with a great handful of green leaves and a watery spoonful of tomato sauce (it may have been just sieved tomatoes as there was no taste to it). for the main I had the other starter which was a goats cheese and caramelised onion tart, again with a handful of lollo rosso this time which is very bitter. (This tart was also very soggy) The veg (expensive extra charge) was very poor and the servings tiny. Never mind I thought the puddings might be better. No - a rock hard slice of cold treacle tart with ice cream. Sorry I won't go back. I don't mind the cost but expected the food to be good. The chef had offered to do a mushroom rissotto but as this takes a long time to cook and requires one to one attention I suspected it may not be fresh. Can anybody tell me of a restaurant that serves both non-veg (for husband) and interesting vegetarian for me.
