Brambles Cafe in Mid Sussex

I stopped here on my hiking trip to Wakehurst for a cup of tea. The smell of scones made me order one, and it was a good choice.

Homemade cakes, friendly owners, and filling sandwiches (3 bread layers!) Nice to way to start and end a hike :)

Very nice to relax and always a nice welcome.Food is freshly cooked and served and very good.cakes are splendid to eat in or wrapped to take away. Lovely all round

My husband and I had the most wonderful full English here. Highlights in particular were the quality of the bacon, and the toast, made with fresh bread and oozing with butter. It was clearly cooked with care, like if you got a fry up cooked by your family’s best chef. Very reasonably priced too and very very friendly service. Will absolutely be back soon!

Great food, great service as always and an amazing selection of cakes. Would definitely recommend going.

We've just arrived, at 14:15 on Saturday 20 November to find the door locked and yet people inside enjoying their afternoon tea. I would have given zero stars if Google had let me. Not very welcoming after a 10 mile walk! Avoid.

Fabulous and charming tea room with an amazing selection of cakes. Their carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and filling is a must have! The English breakfast was a huge portion and tasted delicious. The service was also excellent.

Today was my first visit to the Balcombe Tea Rooms and I intended to have just a pot of tea and some cake but when I saw the meals on the other tables and the specials board, I suddenly became very hungry and had to order. Was I disappointed, definitely not. Freshly cooked to order, much of the menu is homemade and very generous portions. Run by two lovely ladies who work their socks off. Couldn't manage the cake, so got some to take home with me. Love it and will be going back. Thanks for a lovely afternoon.

My first visit to my Mums favourite cafe. We were greeted like old friends. It was difficult to choose from the huge lunch menu and specials board. Amazing that just two ladies could provide so much variety of lovely home cooked meals and such excellent service - so friendly and helpful. We will be going back soon - got to try afternoon tea next as their cakes looked delicious too.

Nice place with hard working staff. Not any real vegan options but fresh fruit bowl which filled with blueberries, strawberries and bananas.
