What an absolute gem of a place! We went as a group for afternoon tea and it was fabulous. Cosy, warm and welcoming. Great selection of sandwiches, scones and delicious cakes. Excellent service, nothing too much trouble. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning.
Enjoyed the 'Modest Afternoon Tea' with plain scone and egg mayo sandwiches. Food tasted very fresh and the scone was very warm. Polite staff, great value. Would recommend!
Faultless. Run by a lovely couple, cakes are quite clearly made with love, Wii n service by far the best scones I have had in a lovely time. Family friendly with board games beautiful surroundings tea was reasonable priced nice location very nice traditional interior nice vibe and dog friendly unfortunately we devoured the afternoon tea quickly which ment we would not take any photos .
Went to the tea shop for lunch today. Looked small at first glance and we had our dog but the ladies serving said they were dog friendly and we could take her up the stairs where there was extra seating. It was lovely and quaint and the food was fresh and top quality. They even bought treats for the dog with our lunch. The kids had cocoa art on their hot chocolate and there was crayons and stencils for them to create pictures whilst we waited for our food. Nothing was too much trouble. They were really friendly and asked about our holiday so far. Would highly recommend the scones my husband ended up having two cream teas they were so tasty.
Afternoon tea, absolutely amazing service and the food was great. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Would definitely recommend, book the day before, for afternoon tea, I never and was a very grateful person as they managed to accommodate me.
Visited the Almshouse with 7 former work colleagues, to celebrate one of our party's 60th birthday. The staff were very helpful and attentive. We'd booked for "the modest afternoon tea" and were not disappointed. Plentiful quantities of sandwiches, scones & cake. Unlimited tea also. Sadly no photos we got stuck in & enjoyed it too much for that. Perhaps I'll remember to take some on my next visit! Definitely would recommend & will be returning
Great service and excellent staff so helpful and guess what Dog Friendly too, although the spiral staircase is a bit of a challenge so luckily you can eat in the court yard or the table's on the ground floor, can't wait to return.
Wonderful vegan afternoon tea for £15! Two big cakes and loads of sarnies with oat milk for unlimited coffee/tea. My friend's non-vegan teas also looked great (and huge!). Tables nicely spaced apart and very clean inside. Go and support this fab small business. Axbridge is also a lovely little historical village.
RE-VISITED and still as good If your in the vasinity and looking for a great place for a snack/lunch or just a drink then you can't go far from this. A cosy place with history,plenty of seats inside and a few outside in the courtyard. If you was thinking of going here it might be advisable to book ahead as it gets busy.... We had the soupwich ( recommended ), friendly service with lovely food
