Joanna's tea room - I thoroughly recommend! We were a group of 8 and had the afternoon tea, which was one of the best I have had anywhere! The variety of sandwiches and cakeswas wonderful. The sandwhiches were extremely tasty and generous with their fillings. The cakes were fantastic! I particularly loved their cheese straws ( to die for!) , the mini scones, divine lemon posset and the cinammon cream cake was absolutely scrumptious too! I had the gluten free version of the afternoon tea and it was truly excellent.
The tea room handled our group's order admirably and with no fuss at all, as we had one ( me) with food allergies, a pescatarian and one person who loathes cheese. Book in advance and discuss with staff. They are really helpful and make every effort to prepare for you.
The decor is lovely and relaxing and it's worth mentioning that unlike some tea rooms, the chairs are extremely comfortable: they are supportive and padded, ideal if you have any in your group who can become uncomfortable or have bad backs or joints etc.
This tea room is an absolute gem, I throughly recommend!!
