The 30 Best Afternoon tea in Welling

“A real gem of a cafe in the heart of Welling high street. Been coming here for years, whenever I’m in town. Food is really good, always cooked well with lovely staff. You can tell a good cafe when it has regulars that ask for the usual. Everyone made welcome, looked after etc. Great coffee too”

“Opens early 6:30-7am, coffee is very good, big plate breakfast I recommend. Eat well here every morning”

“Superb coffee! Their bean selection is on-point and great roast. And the park and surroundings couldn’t be more perfect! You can grab a snack from this cafe or pack a picnic and enjoy while camping on the grass.”

“Best place, most friendliest staff ever and possibly the world’s best milkshakes!!!!!”

“I've just had the chance to try one of the feta cheese "rogche" and I was actually quite surprised that it was way more delicious than the one I last tried back home. Very friendly and charming girls at the till, that make you feel like home atmosphere. The coffee tastes very delicious too and can highly recommend anyone to try the variety of all the delicious treats they have. Thank you, will definitely visit again. Greetings and keep up with the good stuff you have there.”

“I've only ever driven through Cheam before my visit yesterday, a trip by public transport (tram and train) from Croydon specifically to visit the Whitehall museum, housed in a grade II* listed former domestic dwelling dating from before the reign of Henry VIII. While the museum is an important place of reference for local history, geared more towards children than adults, it also houses the excellent Freedom Caffe' tearoom. The restrictions imposed by such an old, historic house may mean they can't use a normal commercial coffee machine but the range of soft drinks is impressive and more importantly, the vegan options for lunch are delicious. I highly recommend both the vegan sausage roll with salad and the vegan Greek. Then there are the cakes... The only vegan option on the day was a chocolate pear and apple cake but it was gorgeous and the staff were attentive and friendly and the food reasonably priced. I also noted the fresh pasta preparation. There's more to Cheam than the museum but whatever else you're doing it's well worth making sure you visit the Freedom Caffe' for a drink and a bite to eat.”

“Great old style tunes. The community vibe this place had was something I’ve not seen before. They catered to all there customers with a smile. They even new most of there names. Very good service, quick and good value for money. Reviewed from a full English breakfast connoisseur! I will be back!”

“Perch & Co. near Croxley station is an absolute gem! The rustic vibe of the café immediately makes you feel at home, with its warm, cozy atmosphere and charming decor. The food is exceptional, made with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavor. Their menu offers a great variety, catering to all tastes, from hearty breakfast options to delicious lunch specials. The staff are friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about their customers. Whether you're stopping by for a quick coffee or settling in for a leisurely meal, Perch & Co. never disappoints. Highly recommended!”

“A delightful little cafe. The panninis were absolutely delicious, made with care, using super fresh ingredients. Nice friendly guy too. Highly recommend.”

“The best breakfasts in town! I don't get the chance to visit much but when I do I'm never disappointed! Very friendly and welcoming environment with great food.”

“Taste has such a warm, homely feel. Kate, the owner, makes you feel so welcomed, she is so friendly and joyful. The food is delicious, especially the cakes! All home made by the owner, you can tell Kate puts so much care and love into them. And, the portions are humongous!”

“I had breakfast with coffee at Casa Mia with my family, and it was a fantastic experience. The food was freshly made and incredibly tasty—full of flavor and clearly prepared with care. The staff were polite, professional, and made us feel comfortable right away. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a great place to relax and enjoy your time. It’s truly one of the best places for breakfast with excellent service. I would highly recommend Casa Mia to anyone looking for a delicious meal and a pleasant dining experience. Go and try it—you’ll be satisfied!”

“Banging cafe can’t go wrong. Great quality food with prices better than other cafes. Very nice staff too, would recommend”

“Excellent coffee. Service with a smile. We didn't eat but we did see the 'English Breakfast' Looked fantastic! We'll definitely come again and order the breakfast. The decor is artistic and tasteful. A relaxing experience.”

“Great local cafe with friendly service. Food portions are huge!”

“What a lovely place! We are here on a Tuesday evening so very quiet. We have stayed for 3 drinks and decided to try the food. Onion bhajis are light and crispy. The green chilli chicken is spicy. SPICY and I am here for it even though it made my tongue numb. The Gunter chicken has a delicious sauce and the bread is fab! Will definitely be back even though Jumbo the life size elephant scares the shit out of me!”

“An Italian style coffee shop. Excellent coffee which is smooth and strong. The cakes are really great and home made. Very reasonable price as well. The lunch options are paninis, sandwiches and salad bowls, plus baked potatoes and priced between £3.50 and £8.50. Cakes £2.90 Coffees around £2-3 with Americano £2.40 and cappuccino £2.70. This is a friendly cafe with outdoor seating and ideal for coffee and cake whilst out shopping or light lunches with friends. A really lovely addition to this fast improving High Street.”

“Absolutely great experience again today! Never disappoints. Nicky the manager runs a tight ship, Chelsea our steak expert was great as usual, food was brilliant! Special mention to our usual waitress - the blonde mature lady! She is a my fave! Food was brilliant as always! Loving the new menu too!”

“We had breakfast from here and it was so good. Best cafe around the neighbourhood.”

“Wanstead Coffee is a fantastic spot! Great coffee and wonderful restaurant. Super friendly staff. Perfect for a relaxed hangout. Definitely worth a visit!”

“Bon Bon Coffee is such a lovely spot — the coffee is amazing every time, and they have every milk option you could possibly want! The staff are always friendly and the atmosphere is really relaxed. A perfect place to grab your morning coffee or sit and unwind.”

“Fantastic coffee — smooth and rich — and they asked if I wanted my banana bread toasted. I did. It was glorious. Crisp edges, warm centre, perfect pairing. It’s the little things that make a big difference.”

“The atmosphere is nice and the staff friendly. There is a good selection of teas and coffees. The cakes are tasty. Pastries are ok though. However we enjoy this place after a nice walk during cold days.”

“Lovely Costa in the Tescos, mince pie for breakfast and large cappuccino sets up the day. Really friendly staff and nice area to sit”

“Rafayel on the Left Bank is an interesting boutique / eco-luxury hotel with many appealing features (river views, spa, spacious rooms, design touches) but it has notable inconsistencies and quirks. Whether it’s a good fit depends on your priorities, tolerance for imperfections, and expectations. Best for: • Guests who value unique design, riverside views, spa / wellness, and boutique experience over perfect polish. • Those comfortable with being a bit removed from the very center and willing to use transport to get to central attractions. • Travelers looking for more “value luxury” — i.e. a luxury hotel that might cost less than top-tier central 5-stars.”

“Visited Dec2024. A cute little cafe at a transit hub, ideally located for quick food on the go. Frequented by locals and workers. All good everyday snacks and breakfasts. Very basic, very quick. Great coffee.”

“I was looking for somewhere local for a traditional Sunday roast and I am pleased that I chose the Marquis. Food and drink were excellent. The service by Isabel was first class. Recommended.”
