We were suggested to try this café in a nearby shop. I have celiac disease and follow a gluten-free diet. They were very accommodating and thoroughly checked all the ingredients and contaminants. I enjoyed a brie and cranberry sandwich on gluten-free bread, followed by a delicious slice of lemon drizzle cake. They also offer takeaway options and sell jams, pickles, and other items.

What Jjennieflo doesn't like about Grannies:
In Alnwick, there aren't many options for a coffee and snack stop, so we decided to try this restaurant. It was just okay - not amazing or fantastic, but it met our needs for a coffee and snack. I would describe it as average. View all feedback.
The food was excellent. I had bacon and egg bap and my wife the scrambled eggs. Both were hearty and cooked to perfection. The setting was lovely and the staff really friendly. The cakes looked gorgeous but wouldn’t really go with breakfast
Went for breakfast and it was very underwhelming. I could have cooked a better breakfast at home, which to me isn’t the point of going out. Not much on offer for vegetarian breakfast other than scrambled eggs on toast. The mushrooms were very dry. Scrambled eggs were over cooked. The staff were very nice and friendly
As ever, we were not disappointed! The food the service, the atmosphere, brilliant! A tiny place with a big heart. Book to avoid disappointment!
Such a delightful find in this small, interesting town. Full of charm, the tea rooms are down a steep staircase in an old cellar in a building, which although through the ages has changed its use, its architecture remains stubbornly the same. A family home, a clock and watch seller and repairer and now a small delicatessen and tea room, it has a small but tasty supply of cake and pastries, and it makes very good coffee. The young lady serving was truly delightful. Upstirs I availed myself of a selection of delicatessen treats and that made for an excellent supper. Well worth a visit.
My wife and I popped in yesterday for afternoon tea. Despite being told the scones had been made fresh that day, they arrived with a firm, rubbery texture (I sense they had been microwaved too long as they were warm and had clearly not just come from an oven). We sent them back and stuck with a pot of tea. Despite letting it brew it was insipid and lacked flavour. Can only be described as gnats pee. Shame really as we prefer to support local businesses rather than mainstream
