The menu offers a variety of lunches from breakfasts and toasted sandwiches, to jacket potatoes and salads. There is also a new large cake stand in the window with some rather enticing, beautifully decorated fairy cakes, danish pastries and banana loaf to name a few!
I had to opt for the cream tea! The scone was very large, soft, warm and crammed full of fruit. A pot of strawberry jam, a pot of clotted cream and a pot of tea. While everything tasted lovely I couldn't help feeling a little cut short on the cream which was just enough to cover the scone, but not enough to layer thickly. Still, at only £3.50 it was good value.
My daughter had chosen a cheese burger and chips from the children's menu, with a banana milkshake. The milkshake was delicious and full of ice-cream, but it was also nearly a pint and for the first time in her life my daughter was defeated by the size of it and had to leave half. The cheese burger and chips was really a comically large portion, even for an adult. Half a burger and maybe a tenth of the chips later she was again defeated by the sheer volume of food. As she described it herself, the burger had 'an interesting flavour' and the chips were a little oily, however there is a limit to how much you can complain when receiving such an enormous meal for only £2.75.
All in all it has a good atmosphere and everything is very well priced, I would say an excellent place to go for its' tea and cakes over anything else.
