Went for afternoon tea. Best sandwiches we have ever had ,plenty of food and tea at a excellent price. Friendly quick service too.Thanks
The Victoria tea room is a charming place with plenty of choice, cattering from specialist teas to a hearty breakfast. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Best Mocha in my opinion. Highly recommend.
Lovely traditional tea rooms, great service and fab food. We had the afternoon tea for two and we werent disappointed. Delicious 😊
Wonderful food and friendly, welcoming service. Fabulous homemade cakes, all incredibly tempting - you just look at them and can tell straightaway that they're all home baked. The teacakes looked fab and huge. They serve breakfasts all day, which you can eat in or take out. I had the veggie brekky at a very reasonable £5.75, including toast and butter. Large breakfasts at £7.25. Very reasonably priced menu. Assortment of teas available. Afternoon teas. Gift vouchers available. Loos are upstairs. Some more seating upstairs. My green tea came in a highly unusual and very cute angular teapot. Extra hot water provided without asking. Berry cheesecake and the fresh cream mini Victoria sandwich cakes looked totally yum. Genteel little caff. Highly recommended. Shall revisit when next in Barnsley. Staff were lovely.
Excellent tearoom friendly staff, great food decent size portions too, big selection of coffees. Cakes are the best too all homemade. Only downside is it's only cash payments.
