Add some locally sourced organic food, and a proprietor that caters for dietary requirements AND an art gallery and you'll get close to Annie's Tea Rooms. Probably the best Banoffee Pie I've ever tasted, not to mention the salmon and pasta; oh and the ice cream. This a place where you can wake up and smell the coffee and STILL be in the same place!

It was busy, so you could tell that it is a popular spot. It is set on the river that runs through the village so you can enjoy your breakfast while the water slowly flows by you. This area and the cafe are beautiful. The staff were very nice, friendly and helpful. Even though they were very busy, they showed no signs of being annoyed or overwhelmed. They seemed genuinely happy you were there and eager to make sure you were happy with your stay. We ordered the sausage rolls and a Cornish pastry and they were very good. I'm sure there are a lot of amazing restaurants in the place, but you would not go wrong stoping by here to grab a coffee and a bite to eat.

This is a farm shop and restaurant/cafe that was an excellent find on the A436 at Chiseldon. I…read morehighly recommend the traditional English breakfast. I selected the Small Farmhouse breakfast which consisted of sausage, bacon, egg, hash brown, mushrooms, baked beans and a slice of toast with butter and jam. My husband selected the Farmhouse breakfast which had the same ingredients but twice as much. Of special note are the sausages which were very meaty and that the breakfast was cooked to perfection with none of the grease that can often be present. They also serve a full range of hot drinks so I was able to select a decaf latte. The menu includes some sandwich-type options and there were a few scones etc. for those who don't have our appetites. Service was fast for us. We arrived soon after they opened so only about 4 tables were already filled, so I cannot speak to service speed when they are busy, but they looked to have plenty of staff on duty. I forgot to take photos of the food but it was excellent.

It's places like The Kitchen that restore one's faith in England…read more The Kitchen serves proper English regional food with style. The attention to detail really shows, from the spick and span Georgian exterior with it's enormous floor length bay window allowing sunlight to flood in to the beautiful cakes lined up like serried ranks of candy coloured soldiers. Stone floors and rustic mismatched furniture are juxtaposed against a trompe l'oeil to great effect. There is just that hint of unstudied hyper reality that only period dramas and dreamy Cotswold towns seem to have. The Kitchen opens between 9am and 5pm for five days a week serving breakfasts and coffees, light lunches and afternoon teas. The tea shop is in two rooms, one either side of a chimney breast. The other half had a broccoli soup with cheese (all we know is that it was a local cheese). It came with a cheese scone, bread, butter and lots of lovely tea. Judging by the 'oohs' and 'aaahs' wafting across the table I can only guess nirvana had been reached . . . this was confirmed by beaming smiles and an empty bowl that was all but licked clean! I opted for a welsh rarebit which came with a lovely salad. Again, a light yet robustly flavoured snack that disapeared . . . . fast! The Double Gloucester mingled with hints of a floral yet smoky beer and delicate mustard. Cake inevitably followed, mine a rich chocolate cake dense with flavour and solid of consistency; the kind that demands a 4 mile walk afterwards. The other half erred on the side of caution and settled for a toasted teacake which came wth butter and was reportedly "v. fruity and spicy - yum". The bill came to . . . I forget. I recall feeling no pain. That places like this still exist is enough. Go, and enjoy The Kitchen. It's strong local following suggests that it will prevail . . . . just go there and love it a little, to make sure it survives!

We had planned to have an afternoon tea at this lovely little café while visiting Newbury. We…read moredecided to go for a quick lunch, a couple days before the planned afternoon tea. Well, it was a good thing we did, since we didn't get to go back for afternoon tea... Just as the name suggests, it is located right by the canal. It was very picturesque, peaceful and relaxing. They also have seating upstairs, and had histories on the canal, with photos posted all around the wall. Their cakes looked amazing, but I decided not to order any dessert on this day. Yes I know, a big mistake! Our friend ordered Heavenly Hot Chocolate, and it looked so pretty! We went with Teashop House Blend Tea, and Earl Grey. The young boy who brought the teas (I hear this is a family-run business) was trying to very careful not to mix them up. But the funny thing was, he totally mixed the tea up! LOL. We didn't realize until half way through... I thought the House Blend tea tasted so much like Earl Grey. For lunch, we had Ham, Cheese & Chutney Sandwich and Eggs Benedict. They were both tasty, nice portion, and filling. Our friend went with something healthier, and ordered one of their vegan sandwiches. It is nice to have that option if you want or need vegan dish. We had a nice quick lunch here. It was adorable and cozy. The food was good, not amazing, but good. I think the sweets might be better than the actual food...I will never know, unless I go back! Lesson learned: don't never expect your plan to go just the way you planned them...and have your dessert first!
