Description

Nestled in the scenic landscapes of Keswick, Bryson's Tea Room evokes mixed feelings among visitors. While their chocolate éclairs garner rave reviews, many diners express disappointment over overpriced, microwaved dishes and chaotic service. Though some praise the delightful banoffee pie and friendly staff, others report disorganized queuing and a lack of gluten-free options. The coffee quality drew criticism, with patrons experiencing inconsistent brews. Despite the flaws, the charming atmosphere, delicious flower bread, and an array of tempting cakes keep guests returning. With a little more attention to service and consistency, Bryson's could shine brighter in this competitive culinary scene.

Beautiful place. We popped in and had a coffee in the little ground floor cafe area. Served quickly by friendly helpful staff. Coffee was lovely. Then popped in o. Way back for cakes to take away with us amd they were absolutely divine. Great selection at really good prices. Can highlight recommend the theatre tart and the chocolate muffin. We're we're back in Keswick a few days later and just had to get some more to take back with us. Will make a point to always stop by when we're up in the la

Lovely food. Although on the day we visited they were terribly under staffed and had to wait a long time

I took a take out of sandwich, vegetable pasty and cream donut. Sandwich was very tasty. Pasty was bland and lacked the filling. Donut was tasty. Very good value for money; sandwich came at £5.50. Clean toilet available at level 2. Also bought a malted bread loaf to try at home

Located on the bustling High Street, this charming establishment offers a pleasant atmosphere and commendable coffee. The standout item here is undeniably the carrot cake, boasting an exceptional taste. However, while the pastries like the eclair and custard tart are sizable, they don't quite surpass prepackaged shop versions. The lemon dip and fruit tart are enjoyable, though not extraordinary. Prices are fair for the quality provided, and indoor seating is available. Overall, a worthwhile visi

A lovely meal as always with plenty of room at the table to eat. You don't feel squashed against other tables even when the place is busy. The food is always good here. As a family we had lasagne, Cumberland grill (basically an all day breakfast) and a ham and cheese panini with curly chips. For dessert we had apple pie with ice cream and cream and one person had the chocolate brownie. No complaints from any of us about the food or service.
