Nestled in scenic countryside, Broadoaks offers an inviting atmosphere for afternoon tea, yet experiences vary markedly. While some guests rave about the abundant selection of sandwiches, scones, and cakes, others cite issues with cramped seating and subpar service, including stained crockery and a lack of attention to dietary needs. Highlights include the tranquil conservatory setting and accommodating staff, making it a charming venue for couples and families. However, concerns over cleanliness and attentiveness suggest that while the location is enchanting, improvements in service quality are essential for a truly delightful dining experience.
