The Chunky Teapot

We booked our Christmas afternoon tea for my wife's birthday to takeaway, even though the shop we closed they were still doing deliverys and take aways. The lovely people had it all waiting for me to collect when I turned up. It was all very well presented and well made couldn't fault it. It was very nice and well priced. Would love to come back and sit inside one day.

Wonderful! A lovely place in Sidcup for brunch and cakes with a homely decor.

Highly recommend trying the Oreo cake - it was delicious!

Came here as it was en route to my destination, the reviews looked very promising; well let’s say that The Chunky Teapot did not disappoint.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a smile by Maisy who gave me a menu & advised me to come up to the counter when I was ready order.

Now for the food, order what I usually would; Eggs Royale. Came really quickly & well presented.
This is without a doubt the best Eggs Royale I’ve ever had. Poached to perfection, with a great half moon shape and tasty enough for a king.

Reasonably priced food/drinks, clean, unique styling, very welcoming & friendly staff.

Highly Recommended!

What a gem of a café, so welcoming, vast tea and coffee selection and lovely choice on the lunch menu. I'm gluten intolerant and my daughters egg intolerant and they new their stuff and advised us accordingly. We had a feast and I would recommend the freshly baked gf scones ....delicious 😋
Thankyou Chunky Teapot 🫖 we look forward to returning. Dogs are only allowed outside in the sectioned off seating area.

Went for breakfast with my wife and our eldest daughter. Very friendly service. Nice surroundings and good food

Such a lovely little find. Even though they had run out of hot chocolate 😪 they cated for our needs. Food was delicious and staff were friendly. Good value too

Don’t bother booking here if you have a dietary requirement. I’m really disappointed overall with our experience and felt like a naughty school child being scolded by overly officious management. It was like everything was too much trouble and we should just be grateful they let us book!!

Booked for 8 adults for afternoon tea, including my partner and our parents. Was told they can’t cater for my dairy free sister (not vegan) this time of year as they are doing Festive Afternoon tea. When I queried about the main menu, was informed they wouldn’t usually allow someone on an afternoon tea table to order from this but they’d make an exception for her on this occasion. When booking, I was asked if any allergies. I am vegetarian, not an allergy to my knowledge? Yet when I turned up was told I couldn’t have a vegetarian afternoon tea as I didn’t let anyone know in advance (it’s listed as an option for vegetarian festive menu on the website alongside the normal one). Also had management waving the receipt and email in my face to reiterate the point that I should have told them in advance - really bizarre. Managed to then completely forgot a drink for my dairy-free sister, no apology or acknowledgement of this. And to top it off, lots of awkwardness around a partial refund as they’d left off the service charge when I booked initially and paid in full in advance.

As mentioned, if you have no dietary requirements I’m sure you’d be just fine. If you do have any, be sure to give extra notice as clearly it’s too much trouble otherwise.

Was lovely and friendly when I came in for breakfast, worked around diary requirements, and catered for my veggie mum. Very lovely and kind would recommend to everyone
