What is it?
An English-style tea room in an old house on St Margaret's Street, the street that runs down from the cathedral towards the Roman Museum. It has more than thirty teas and coffees, breakfasts, light lunches and, above all, afternoon tea with scones, clotted cream and jam, sandwiches and cakes.
When to go
It is open every day: on weekdays from 9:30 to 17:00, on Saturday until 17:30 and on Sunday from 10:00 to 16:30. It is small and at weekends there is a wait in the middle of the afternoon; go mid-morning or just after lunch. It works well as breakfast before the 11:00 guided walk or as an afternoon treat after the cathedral.
With children
A shared cream tea is the perfect reward after the cathedral, and the Roman Museum is just around the corner.
What to order: the cream tea, tea with scones, clotted cream and jam, or the full afternoon tea if it is your meal of the day.
