Gill and the staff at The Garden Tea Rooms are absolutely wonderful. They did me proud with a fantastic afternoon tea, supporting me on a very special occasion and I cannot thank them enough.

The setting is great, the food is good (especially the gluten-free scones), and the staff and friendly. Sadly, both the tea and coffee are poor quality and should be avoided, the same issue 11 months apart and nothing has improved. The tea is awful. It is a very weak brand with not much tea in the bag (think supermarket value brand style). Left to brew for five minutes yet still was weak, watery, and unpleasant to drink. The coffee is worse yet. Its incredibly weak, bitter and void of any flavour notes (tastes likes very low quality beans that arent freshly ground), and the milk is also watery (perhaps skimmed or semi skimmed, and burnt when steaming) destroying the texture and taste. See the picture below of the white mug, that's a 'latte' - theres is no velvety hues of brown and white like one would expect from a latte, because there is no espresso crema at all - it looks like something that comes out of a cheap vending machine and tastes even worse. I dont understand how a tea room can get tea and coffee so wrong. And at the prices they change for their awful drinks; its almost insulting. They need better quality supplies of both coffee beans and milk, and some training on how to make good coffee. My recommendation would be to buy cakes/scones here, but bring your own accompanying tea and coffee in a flask.
