Due to demand we are offering our ‘Call and Collect’ and ‘Home Delivery’ services 7 days a week, give us a call on 01438 861930. Be safe. X

We are pleased to announce we are currently offering our home delivery service and will be offering our ‘Call & Collect’ service as of Tuesday, 12 May.

To make an order for either service, please call us on 01438 861930 the day before. If we do not answer, just leave a message and we’ll call back asap as we are re-starting with a small team.

We will do our best to accommodate your needs, but we will be operating with strict time slots for both deliveries and collections. We will not be working with cash, but payments can be made by card or online at the time of ordering.

The premises will not be open, and we will only be able to serve by pre-order. Please do not attend the Tearooms if you have not pre-ordered.

We will be using our newly built delivery hatch to pass out the ‘Call & Collect’ orders. This will avoid any face to face contact. We will only be opening for limited periods and both services will evolve. We will always, both inside and out, work within Government Guidelines and social distancing rules. As part of these precautions we have fitted a hand sanitizer inside our lobby area for the use of customers utilising our collection service.

Everyone’s health is of primary importance, so please be prompt if you have booked a slot and please do not remain near the premises once you have collected your order. We have removed all outside seating and tables until it is deemed safe to re-instate them. Home deliveries will be made contactless.

We trust you understand our caution and will work with us gradually phasing back our precious family business. Should there be sufficient demand we will introduce a booking system on our website.

General details and pricing of the two services are attached. These will also be available on our website.

If in doubt, just call us!

(Phase 1 of our reopening)

Dear Friends,

Thank you for all the lovely messages we’ve received while we’ve been closed. As always , your support and encouragement mean a lot to us. We’ve missed the sounds of your laughter and chatter in the Tearooms and can’t wait to see you all again, and hear all your stories of this unprecedented period.

As you will be aware, we’ve been constantly busy while closed and part of our work has been eagerly monitoring current guidelines and considering phases of re-opening. We are pleased to announce that it is our intention over the next few weeks to roll out a home delivery scheme and a take-away service, initially through pre-booking collection slots.

We are re-configuring the layout of the Tearooms to facilitate these new services and enable us, our team and customers to remain safe/operate at no additional risk. An example of this is a new serving hatch at the front of the Tearooms, through which we will be able to deliver pre-booked take-aways while maintaining social distancing and avoiding the need to enter the premises.

We will be monitoring the Government’s guidelines to be announced next week and post further detail of the first phase of our re-opening thereafter.

At this stage, we envisage our home delivery service will include Afternoon High Tea, home baked whole cakes, traybakes & our legendary scones. Our pre-bookable take-out service will initially offer teas and coffees (full selection from our extensive drinks menu ), freshly made scones and a choice of home baked cakes and traybakes.

It is our intention to develop the scope of our offering as we go. Further, we will involve more of our team as demand builds. We will not, however, compromise on safety and everyone’s health comes first. Our mantra from the beginning has been to do the ‘right thing’ and we continue with that in mind.

If you feel these services are of interest or you have any suggestions then please comment or message us, we would love to hear from you.

Take care and keep safe. x
