How are we doing?
We love our Teahouse and our wonderful customers, who we strive to deliver a memorable experience for. YOUR opinion matter to us. If you get a moment we would love to hear your thoughts.
It's a warm and friendly atmosphere. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, with fantastic and efficient service. They run events for children in the holidays, pottery painting is one they're running this summer. They are very focused on making people of all ages feel welcome and at home. There are two rooms, the back room where we sat was spacious and there were toys for toddlers to play with. I loved it and can't wait to go back again.read more

Had tea at Dotty's today with a friend and her little baby. I was really impressed with the attentive and friendly service from all the staff, without being in your face. It is a charming place that is welcoming to families with small children and babies. We enjoyed delicious toasties, tea, coffee and cakes, all very reasonably priced and served in spacious, bright, clean and tastefully decorated tea rooms. Perfect spot for something to eat and a relaxing chat. Thanks for a lovely time. It made catching up with my friend really special. I look forward to returning soon. Phyllis.read more

I visited here today with my family who have recently moved to the area. We were a little late for our booking but they could not have been more accommodating and offered us a lovely welcome. What a lovely environment and the most friendly of staff. We had a pot of English breakfast tea, cakes and scones with jam and cream. A most delightful experience. We will return.read more

We had a wonderful tea here this afternoon for my sisters birthday. The staff were lovely, attentive without being intrusive and you felt that nothing was too much trouble. We were offered more sandwiches when we cleared the ones that were brought out in no time!! Ended up taking a doggy bag home of the cakes we couldn't finish! Can't praise them enough and we will definitely be back .read more

This place is a rip-off. They only sell basic sandwiches, so the make virtually 100% profit. It is so over priced that I cannot believe anyone would pay what they are charging. They have put this place together with the minimum of attention to floor or chairs. I think that people cannot see past the buntin and artificial flowers.read more

I went for a meet up with my girliends, and took two girls, age 10. They were excited to go, but we were put in the babies area out the back amongst tantrums and tears of younger children. Instead of being treated like young ladies the girls were given plastic plates and beakers instead of pretty plates/cup and were treated like much younger kids. The lady serving was quite abrupt and not very friendly. We didn't even have a tablecloth!read more
