Reviews
"I usually don’t post reviews, especially bad ones, but this experience was bellow my expectations, especially that this was my first afternoon tea and I was looking forward to having a nice time. Firstly, when me and my boyfriend arrived, the host put us next to a table of 10 (really loud) girls, that immediately ruined the whole atmosphere that the beautiful location has. In my opinion they shouldn’t have given the tables next to them to any other customers, but because the restaurant was almost full already we decided to stay there. Our biggest disappointment was the food.. I ordered the traditional one and my boyfriend had the savoury one. My sandwiches were alright, but his savouries were awful, he couldn’t even eat the croquette and he had to spit it out.. The scones were dry and the desserts were just ok, nothing special for that price. The staff didn’t come to check on us and we could see they were unprepared. The location is beautiful but the food and service were definitely not what I expected them to be. Won’t be coming back."
"A lovely afternoon tea,it looks quite small but actually more than enough, choice of teas, delicious cakes. My husband had the weavers afternoon tea which came with sausage Roll and pork pie, he really enjoyed it. The old crypt is lovely. Would visit again."
"I went to this restaurant with my family (wifey and 2 teenagers) for lunch. We were properly welcome by Alice and we sat in comfy chairs before we were given the menu. The ambience is great, not excessively opulent but it actually radiates warmth. Food & drinks arrived on time - please make sure that you try the freshly baked scones - they're the best! The staff are friendly & they pay proper attention to your requests. I just love this restaurant"
"What a gem of a place. Beautiful and relaxing ambience in the medieval building. Service was second to none. Beautiful coffee and food. Will definitely be back. We went at the end of the day as they were preparing to close but they went out of their way to accommodate us. Thank you and good luck with your beautiful venture."
