“ Very welcoming and friendly staff, amazing tomato soup and delicious cakes, reasonably priced and great coffee too. The old version of the tearoom did a cracking fry up so good to see it's still got a breakfast menu, though we were in for lunch this time so we'll have to come back. Visited in the off season and was nice and quiet but imagine it will be busy come the summer! ”
