Great for afternoon tea. Short hours 3 to 4.30 but it is a beautiful space and you can just stick with a piece of cake if you don’t want the whole shebang. Either way it works out a lot cheaper than a lot of the afternoon tea options and you have plenty of elbow room.

For a takeaway cream tea try the Rose cafe. They put it in a box and then you can cross the high street and head for the river down Rose Lane and watch the punters while you eat your takeaway cream tea which feels quite decadent.
