We went for Afternoon Vintage tea for two on a group on 2 weeks ago. The cafe was freezing. We had to keep our coats on. Service was ok but we were the only customers for quite a while. We have sampled several afternoon teas from other places and Granny Smith 's is a let down. The sandwiches were plain and unexciting. The scones were ok. The cakes were very poor and cheap. No flair at all. The young lady serving us was pleasant enough although no problem every time she did anything does grate after a while. Course it 's no problem if you 're doing the job you 're being paid for. Won 't go back. Won 't recommend.
Three times my partner and i been to granny smiths first two times forty five minutes wait for bacon cobs today waited one hour still no bacon cob could see staff chatting in kitchen .we did not want to create a scene to upset other customers just left without having food we had paid for their idea of service is rubbish.
First of all, I must say that the two ladies working there when we visited were lovely, they greeted us in a very friendly manner and were welcoming and professional. The reason for the 2 stars is that the food wasn't the best. We paid £12.95 for a Groupon afternoon tea for two deal and having had several of these and visited other tea rooms we felt that in comparison with price, this was poor. The tea and coffee were great, the sandwiches however were extremely cold (been kept in a fridge? and the selection wasn't great, two ham, egg mayo, tuna mayo which was poor if you don't like mayo. The cakes were cheap packet types and so were the scones. I would imagine that all of the produce was purchased from the cheapest supermarket and unfortunately it let Granny Smiths down. I found that £12.95 for this meal was extremely poor and could not recommend.
Delicious afternoon tea today. Perfect vintage feel cafe. Very welcoming. Clean and tidy. Beautiful. Highly recommend
