   Had a Mega Breakfast ordered. Lots of toast, two sausages, two fries eggs, and two rashes of bacon, some fried bread as well, mushrooms and beans. I didn't need any tomatoes, and they brought plenty of butter and some French mustard as requested. Good service. Got chatting to other customers near the front windows and it had a good atmosphere nearing closing time. The toilet was a trek upstairs, but really quirky. Good price. If the sausages were slightly better quality the price would have been higher, so I was happy with my decision anyway. All good. Thank you.

   Lovely little tearoom housed in a building that is over 700 years old. The afternoon tea, it's self was nice, you are given 3 halves of sandwiches (cheese & tomato, Salmon & egg) a scone and then you get to chios from a selection of cakes and teas/coffees. It appears very popular, as was very busy when we arrived. The toilets are a fair walk, if you need to go

   Looks really lovely from the outside, with plenty of customers. Given the location possibly first time customers, visitors to the area, etc. The staff were all female and all looked very young, and lacked friendly conversation. We ordered the Full English Breakfast, whereby the usual breakfast items, beans & black pudding were an additional £0.75p. We swapped the fried bread for black pudding. We also ordered a coffee and a tea. As you can see from the pictures, the breakfast looked ok, though tasted greasy, bland and dry. The toast was half toasted on 1 side only, dry bacon, mushrooms shrivelled dry and tasteless, the saussage was full of fat and tasted awful. This was the worst cooked breakfast I have ever had. We both left half the breakfast and paid. We were charged for the black pudding, even though it was a swap. Total price £20.25. Pointless complaining as the staff looked to young and preferred not to embarrass them. As a result this post will reach the 657,000 people on my google reviews. Warning - have breakfast elsewhere.

   Cute place. Came for afternoon tea after exploring the city. Service was a little slow. Had to ask for tap water three times before we were finally served some. Tea was nice. Had some history upstairs which added to the character. Don’t sit upstairs during the winter! It’s freezing, but I imagine spring and summer are lovely.

   I visited here for a small lunch. Very nice place over three floors with lovely staff. We got a vegetarian breakfast (beware it doesn’t come with baked beans as standard!) and the leek and potato soup with cheese sandwich. The latter was disappointingly watery with an overwhelming taste of just celery. The sandwich was a couple of small triangles with the dry cheese all falling out. The breakfast was reasonable good. Service couldn’t be faulted. Not so sure I would go again.

   We used a gift voucher here for an afternoon tea for 4 people, and what a treat it was. We all had nice pots of hot tea and each had a cake stand loaded with sandwiches ,a cake of choice, and a fresh scone with jam, butter, and clotted cream. Then to top it all there was fresh strawberries and cream. Highly recommended .

   Don't come here for green teas. Ordered loose leaf jasmine tea, however our experience with drinking the tea was pretty much below average. Sadly the tea was extracted at too high of a temperature causing it to taste awfully astringent. The metal teapots were also really hot to handle and could potentially cause burns. Photo attached shows these ouchy teapots. I'm writing this review hoping you guys will improve in the future and never steep these kinds of green teas over 80C because it causes them to go unecessarily bitter and ruins the taste profile. This is the reason for the 1 star.

   Beautiful cafe, a real hidden gem in the heart of Chester! Went for afternoon tea- sandwiches bursting full, huge fresh scones and ample selection of teas and cakes (or prosecco). Can't beat the price, considering delicious food in a listed building on the rows in the middle of Chester. Ask for a seat upstairs for an authentic experience. Thank you for an unforgettable lunch!
