Lovley place to eat and covers lots of dietary needs when asked about it. Very friendly staff and manager's. Great place to take the dog. Definitely will be going back for a high tea soon.

·

Excellent tea house and garden for a lunch (wholemeal or white bread) generously sized, a high tea or just a pot of tea, coffee or hot chocolate. Very nice garden and friendly hard working staff!

Fantastic little find. We stopped on our way down to Cornwall to stretch our legs along the canal - saw a variety of birds including young ducklings. Stopped here on way back to car - the flapjack was lovely and very moreish. He had the cream tea and he loved it and still raves about it a month later! He's already saying we need to stop here again. The cream teas are plenty big enough and nice and fresh. Very worth the stop!

5 stars for being open on monday lunchtime in April bank holiday, when the rest of Tiverton was closed!Also a really charming sun trap, with tasty cream tea.

Utterly disappointed!!My friends booked me a baby shower here for today...I have previously attended a baby shower here (3 years ago) and it was lovely...I'm not sure it ownership has changed, but today was an absolute horrific experience!We were expecting 20 guests, including my heavily pregnant self, 2 wheelchair users and a new baby.So we purposefully booked the outside shed room so we had space for everyone, and did not disturb other customers. This is what happened the previous shower, but with only 8 guests.When my friends arrived to set up, they were rudly advised the room had been doubly booked, and a party of 20 were due an hour after our party started!So therefore we were all crammed into a tiny corner with nowhere to move.Some dogs also entered the room, and became very distressed and barking due to the volume of people.We asked to speak to the manager after even the staff commented 'I don't know why it had been booked like this. I'm so sorry it is awful'.The manager came to speak to us... And instead of apologising for the monumentus c**k up, she began shouting, and accusing us of things. Then contradicting herself!Unfortunately by this point we had already ordered our extortionatly priced food, so had no option to stay.To add insult to injury, various people in the party had hairs, human and dog! In our food!I will certainly never be visiting again, or holding a party here.Absolutely diabolical establishment!!The waitresses were absolutely lovely tho.

Really nice cream tea here. Lovely place. Food looked amazing that was coming out of the kitchen.

Beautiful location next to the Great Western canal. Gluten free & vegetarian options available. There is a garden area and a small under cover area. I really loved it here and if the opportunity arises I will go back. Thank you!

Excellent tea and scones.. Very friendly staff and very good set up..quite reasonable prices too!!

We stopped here for a quick lunch. There were quite a few vegan options. Although gluten free options weren't marked on the menu they were able to offer me a gluten free roll and there were jacket potatoes on the menu. They do non dairy milk as well.Lovely little garden with tables and a few tables inside. Dogs were allowed both in the garden and inside.Worth a visit for lunch if you need vegan options and non vegan options.

Have to say this one of the best and friendliest Tea Rooms I have visited. I hope that the staff see this review. We ordered 2 ham sandwiches which were really tasty and filling, along with tea and coffee. We finished off with 2 of Farmer Tom's ice creams. Lovely tasting flavours and a bit different. Really well priced food and great value. Stunning garden in a great location. Will look forward to returning.
