Blackmore Tearooms

We had our friends down from the Lakes and said we MUST go to the Tea Rooms, as last time we went about 4 weeks ago, both the food and service was superb. Unfortunately this time it was nowhere near as good. We booked in advance to ensure our table, but when we got there, a much nicer table which had been booked for us was occupied and the people refused to give it up, so we had a makeshift and very tight for space table made available at the back. Then we ordered the breakfasts and my friend ordered a simple fried egg on muffin. What she received was scrambled egg (which she accepted), but the muffin was so hard (overcooked) that it broke when trying to cut it. It was inedible. They took it...

Blackmore Tea Room does what it says on the tin. Service was good, food was lovely (we had the High Tea) and felt we got value for money. The property is old and lovely but I felt the decor was a little jaded/faded/dusty. The menu is good, without trying to do too much but the laminated menus felt sticky and not clean. The cutlery also failed to impress. They do a super delux High Tea which we would happily have ordered but you have to pre book at least 24 hours before arriving . . . Bit pointless having this on the menu. Sounds as if I’m being picky; I’m just being honest. To be clear, I would definitely go again. I would definitely pre book the super delux monster High Tea!

This is a really nice friendly village cafe. Varied menu, that was reasonably priced, the tea room is in a quaint old setting well spaced out and clean. The service was quick, the staff polite and friendly. If you are particular about scrambled eggs not being over cooked and full of oil this is a good venue to try as they were very good. It’s also dog friendly and plenty of place to safely leave a bike if you cycle.

I stopped at this restaurant during my bike tour because it had good reviews. The staff were very friendly and the menu had a good variety of options. There were plenty of places to park my bike. I enjoyed my apricot loose leaf tea. However, I was disappointed with the overpriced and undercooked panini. The bread was soggy and not crispy at all. I regret to say that I would not come back to this restaurant. Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch

What a lovely place to enjoy a cream tea on a hot July afternoon! We parked opposite the tea rooms and sat outside enjyoing the sun. The Earl Grey tea tasted rather unlike any other Earl Grey we've had, but it was OK. A pity that they have rather a limited gluten-free menu, which meant that my partner couldn't enjoy scones rodda's raspberry jam. But such a nice location and such nice, friendly staff!

Too wet to walk. Get together with friends. Table of 8 for chat and food. As always lovely food. Couldn’t resist take away cake! We all enjoyed our panini, salad or sandwiches. Such good value. (The next day I met up with a friend in the Gail’s Bakery in Epping. Huge contrast and much less value.

Stopped by here on the way to an escape room in the area. Would have loved to have a breakfast but time was short. Very good service, some gluten free options available. You would not guess the gf brownies were gluten free

This charming café is pleasant overall, but it is brought down by the low-quality ingredients and, unfortunately, the chef. Despite giving it three chances, it has failed to impress us each time. Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch

Bike racks, tasty food, fast service and friendly staff. Coffee was only ok and just the one toilet. Popular with cyclists
