The Brewery Tea Rooms

When your boyfriend says he’d like afternoon tea for his Easter birthday … and you remember a place that friends recommended somewhere near Stevenage. Well this place delivered on all counts. From the cheery ladies who took the booking and then welcomed us so warmly. The rustic, quaint but perfect decor, table settings and crockery. It’s exactly as a tea room should be. Food was delicious and I really appreciated the vegetarian variations. Didn’t think I’d like cucumber sandwiches but adding mint is a game changer. But really, we were only there for the cakes which were extremely tasty. We were so full that a few of them had to be takeaways … snacks for later. And thank you for adding the birthday cake topper and candle as a surprise. It was perfect!

Lovely afternoon high tea. A treat for a birthday! Finger sandwiches, cakes, mini apple crumble and scones with clotted cream. Extensive tea menu and as much as you want included. Quaint cosy interior. Very friendly, excellent service.

On arrival we were welcomed brightly by the staff and shown to our table. We were not bothered while waiting for the rest of our party but staff were there to assist should we have needed them. When we were all there, staff explained how the Afternoon Tea would work, and we ordered the tea pots with recommendations and explanations from the staff. We had ordered dietary requirements in advance for one meal out of 3 and it was perfectly presented and done as per instructions. Wonderful. The sandwiches were on soft bread with no crusts (had not been lying about to get dry and wilted) and the fillings were tasty and varied. The scones were really nice with enough jam and cream (I don't really like scones but these were lovely), and the cakes were good and rich. There was no need to ask for more because we were stuffed by the end. Also in the tea room is a little shop of handicrafts to perfuse, but absolutely no obligation to buy. I've been here before covid and it was just as good as it was then. Highly recommended.

We recently celebrated my Mum's surprise birthday here and were thoroughly impressed. The staff were extremely helpful throughout the whole process and answered all questions promptly. The tea room has a warm, welcoming and cosy atmosphere, which was perfect for the occasion. The variety of teas and the quality of food, especially the stunning and delicious birthday cake, were highlights of the day. Overall the staff provided a wonderful experience for a memorable birthday celebration. I highly recommend this tea room for anyone looking to host a special event or simply enjoy a delightful afternoon tea experience!

Myself and 3 Friends came yesterday afternoon for High Tea. All we can say is Wow. We have been for lunch a few times and also just tea and cakes. This afternoon has just blown us away with your friendly cheerful service and the Sandwiches and Cakes were out of this world. We will be back again soo . Many Thanks
