Hathaway Tea Rooms & Bakery
I would imagine that this little tea room is extremely hard to get into during peak season!
We were here in spring and literally got the last little table under the eaves upstairs. There is a seating area downstairs, as well as upstairs... with a choice of sitting under the eaves at the back of the tea room, or in front of the tea room... overlooking the bustling High Street. We chose the intimate eaves!
Some of the staff were quite new you could tell, they weren't sure what was what, and to be honest... it was a tad higgledy-piggedly! BUT that aside, it was a lovely experience... the food was divine, the atmosphere old world and character-filled.
Everywhere you look there are little antiques... eg: eye out the gorgeous grandfather clock on the staircase... a waste to be sitting on a stairwell in a tea room if you ask me!
All these little things add to the charm of this tea room.
We had a cream tea, the scones were warm, the cream fresh and the strawberry jam really delicious!
As part of their cream tea price, they give you an extra dessert for free too... as if you haven't had enough sweet things!
We had a couple of sweets, shown in the photos.. they were delicious... far too delicious! Highly recommended little tea room!
