There is a chocolate shop on the bottom floor and the tea room is on the next two floors. The cake we had was every chocolate lovers dream, it was soooooo nice I am definitely going back. Staff were friendly, chocolate shop seemed a lot but the cafe was priced well for what you got.
cosy tearooms woth lots of character. The yummiest hot chocolates we have ever come across. Good choice of flavours. I chose cherry and my partner banana, both of which were amazing..!! Great selection of cakes to choose from as well as savoury items on offer. Lovely little shop with the tastiest chocolates that we have experienced outside of Bruges. Nice staff with clean facilities.
The staff are great and very friendly and decoration and seating (in the café) are very traditional looking and in keeping with the stone built building. There is a nice touch in the form of a sign showing a brief history of chocolate production.
The food smelled great, but the draw for me was the the huge range of hot chocolate drinks available. I had the Highway man (salted caramel) and with a massive blob of whipped cream was absolutely delicious. My partner ordered a Merry Cherry and after nabbing a taste I was again Impressed. Another point, these hot chocolates were only £2.50 each! Amazing price for what they are.
Overall, very recommended!
The cafe upstairs was pleasant, however i was a dissapointed to hear that they buy their scones in rather than make them onsite, and they crumbled and felt dry, like they had been defrosted. Cream wasnt clotted either which i think makes the cream tea. I must say though that the cherry/chocolate gateaux did look amazing, im gutted i didnt have that instead.
Certainly looking forward to visiting on my next trip to the lakes for the absolutely delicious coffee cake'ies.
Lovely couple deserve to do well after the shaky start the Covid-19 Brought. We need to support small businesses and all pull together ❤ Go on treat yourself 💖
There are cruel people out there with too much negativity 😢
