    The waitress was very pleasant and efficient everything went smoothly I wanted only brown bread and that was no bother. Lovely tea served to us, tasty delicious . Was given box with the ones we couldn’t eat to enjoy later at home. We had afternoon tea and we got plenty. A welcome birthday gift for me and my twin. We both finished of with a coffee enjoyable experience.

    Lovely afternoon tea. The sandwiches were very flavoursome and the scones were warmed which was nice. The cakes were delicate and beautiful. Thank you.

    Staff were lovely, knowledgeable and attentive without being over the top. We had the Craster kipper salad starter which was very tasty, then we had the roast beef Sunday lunch , the roast potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, the beef melted in your mouth. Very enjoyable and we will be returning

    My wife and I each had two courses from the set menu, kipper salad to start for her, and soup for me. Then we both had chicken skewers in satay sauce, with Jasmine rice. It was all very civilised and the food was fabulous
