Cup And Saucer

Booked this little gem a few weeks ago (definitely book ahead as it gets busy and its a small space). Booked for an afternoon tea, 2 adults, 1 child, had to put down a deposit which I think you should have to do. Came in today, table was set up beautifully for us. The server was very attentive, couldn't do more for the customers. What a selection of teas! Absolutely marvellous, we ordered raspberry ripple- it tasted lovely! Our food came out soon after the tea, my daughter had a kids version and it was huge, brilliant selection of food for her, her juice was served in her own little teapot which I thought was extra cute! The adults afternoon tea was enough for both adults, there was no waste but we were full to brim! 😊 The attention to detail was magnificent and the whole thing was just absolutely Flawless! I've been to 5☆ hotels and their afternoon teas weren't nearly as good enough. It was a beautiful experience, the owner should be extremely proud, we'll definitely be telling everyone we know about it and coming back plenty more in the future. There's also a free car park just around the corner!

Just been for afternoon tea, and it definitely won’t be our last visit. The food was absolutely incredible, and the quality certainly doesn’t go unnoticed! The variety of teas to choose from is amazing. Most other afternoon tea places I’ve been to usually only offer a standard breakfast tea, so it was lovely to have so many options. Gail and the team were so friendly and made us feel incredibly welcome. We can’t wait to visit again. Thank you for such a lovely afternoon! 🩷

We’ve just been for afternoon tea at this lovely little independent café in Clay Cross, and I honestly can’t recommend it enough. It’s right on the high street, but there’s a small free car park just behind, which made it really easy for us. The café itself is absolutely gorgeous—really quaint, with so much character. There aren’t loads of tables, so I’d definitely recommend booking, but that just adds to the charm. Everywhere you look there’s something to take in—beautiful cups and saucers, vintage cutlery, and all those little details that make it feel really special while you’re sat there. The service was outstanding. The staff were so attentive, polite, and genuinely couldn’t do enough for us. We had pre-booked afternoon tea and chose to have the entire thing made gluten-free, as my daughter has coeliac disease and we wanted to be able to share everything safely. As anyone who deals with gluten-free knows, it can be really hit and miss—but this was honestly amazing. The effort they’ve put into it really shows. It looked no different to a standard afternoon tea—you genuinely wouldn’t have known it was gluten-free if it wasn’t labelled. That in itself says a lot, because so many places either don’t offer it properly or it feels like an afterthought. My daughter was so excited—it was actually her first proper afternoon tea, and it meant so much to be able to do that safely and without feeling like she was missing out. Knowing it was pre-prepared also gave us extra confidence around cross-contamination, and you can tell they genuinely care about getting it right. The food was delicious, the whole experience was lovely, and we’ll 100% be back. Highly recommend for anyone—but especially if you have dietary requirements. It’s so refreshing to find somewhere that really makes the effort. Let’s support our local independents—they deserve it 🤍

Went for a Christmas afternoon tea. Wow. The effort that is put into it is incredible. Everything hand made and home baked. Really tasty and so much we took leftovers home. My daughter got her own little afternoon tea and loved pouring her juice from a tea pot. She also got a little goodie bag with extra treats and a small gift to take home. Will be recommending to everyone.

Gail hosted a wonderful baby shower for us and was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was amazing, cakes to die for and we were kept topped up with drinks. The scotch egg is the best any of us have had too. There was cute little extras we didn’t even expect like the popcorn saying ready to pop which was a lovely touch. The shop is a beautiful setting and a nice cosy space to have a gathering. We felt comfortable and taken care of and the booking process was so easy. We all went away with goodies as the shop is just filled with tons of homemade produce so it’s like a private shppping experience too! Definitely recommend giving it a visit.
