I knew I wanted a bespoke menu not the 'Afternoon Tea ' or 'Cream Tea ', which are just as wonderful. I was so pleased to discover that a familiar high street tearoom 'Church View Tearooms ' would be just the ticket. As a local I knew by reputation the quality of the food having gone there when I was in finer fettle, the setting, the crockery ambience would all fit the image I had of what I wished. When I rang Trevor, the owner, explaining how I wanted to have a traditional tea party that you evoke from your childhood with trifle, fairy cakes, jam tarts, sausage rolls cheese straws, he made the dream a reality, anything I asked was possible, and finer details were discussed to ensure all went well. Everything that came to our table was freshly made or freshly baked to perfection. My centre piece was a Victoria Sponge, which was beyond words to describe how it tasted, it was the 'piece de resistance ', everything left was packed up to come home too with boxes he provided. My friends could not help but relish at every mouthful they took. I can not recommend 'Church View Tearooms ' highly enough. The host, Trevor staff saw to our every need, he 's a lovely host and that adds to the whole experience. I think we should support our local businesses in this way, if I had never enquired about my bespoke Tea Party it would have never happened. So here is the biggest thankyou to an excellent five star deserving business. We have a real gem in our high street, don 't miss out on a visit!!

This is especially true if you are dining alone. The staff are professional yet extremely friendly. The chef adds interesting twists to the menu without being too avant-garde. The front of house teams are accommodating and the slightly open plan kitchen allows you to see the entire process. For me, Chris Gomez, this is one of my favorite places to eat, even compared to places in London. Thank you to all the teams, both front and back of house. Great job. Regards, Chris F.

Gorgeous Garden. They have rooms to stay as well. Lots of different rooms to eat and drink in. Large dining area with open kitchens. Service brilliant. Good menu. Food was beautifully presented and tasted great. Wish we had found it on our first night because we could have stayed there for the whole day easily.
