Lavender Tearooms - Northumberland

Have visited here several times over the years and it is delightful. They have a nice menu and the cafe is immaculately clean and tidy and the staff are pleasant and friendly. Placed in a lovely setting, this place is a credit to the owners and I would definitely recommend.

We recently enjoyed the Christmas breakfast with Santa at Lavender Bee Tea Room and it was a wonderful experience. The full cooked breakfast was delicious and served hot, accompanied by unlimited tea and toast. Our grandchildren were thrilled to receive presents from Santa, as well as treats for the reindeer, an elf scroll, and engaging activities at the table. The staff was very friendly and even took the time to contact us beforehand to learn more about our grandchildren so that Santa could personalize their experience. Overall, it was great value for money and an excellent morning out. Well done to the team at Lavender Bee Tea Room!

I was hesitant to try the tearoom's famous lavender cake for the first time, as they always warn about the possibility of using too much lavender. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The cake was light, fluffy, and served slightly warm with delicious apricot jam melting into it. The talented in-house baker definitely knows what he's doing. The tearoom staff were also friendly and helpful, dressed up for Halloween on this particular visit.

There are some beautiful hiking opportunities in the area, such as Flodden Field. We stopped by for a quick break, and one of us needed a gluten-free option. Luckily, they offer one of the better store-bought gluten-free selections here. I ordered a singing Hinny, which was huge, but warm and delicious with butter (others around me had theirs with cream and jam). The garden is lovely, but we had to bring everything inside when it started raining. There is also a well-stocked shop and post office inside.

Lovely Tea room, staff very frendly guiding us in how the service was operated, we ordered a Jacket Potato Cheese and Beans which arrived cooked perfectly it also came with side salad and butter. Would return
