This is a pretty, dog-friendly tea room with a leafy courtyard, streamside setting, and genuinely warm staff. Food is usually fresh, generous, and enjoyable, especially breakfasts, pasties, scones, and cream teas, though a few inconsistent bakes and one serious gluten-free mishap deserve attention. Try: cream tea.
