About Sunday House Tea Room
Sunday House Tea Room is a tea room in Banff, set inside a restored church on Boyndie Rd. The cake selection is homemade and includes Guinness fruit cake and Chocolate Cherry cake, while scones come with jam and cream. Teas are an organic selection, and a pot is served in a silver teapot with old style crockery. A light lunch is also on the menu, with finger sandwiches and home cooked ham. Dogs are welcome in the garden but not indoors. A small shop inside the tea room sells unusual clothes and individual items.

Customer Review Summary
Homemade cakes are the main draw for reviewers, who describe a huge selection and large slices, with Guinness fruit cake and Chocolate Cherry cake named as shared favourites and a Cherry Bakewell taken home. Close behind are the scones with jam and cream and the light lunch items, including fresh, soft finger sandwiches, home cooked ham and a sweet potato soup. Several praise the tea, with a pot for one stretching to four cups, served in pretty, old style crockery and a silver teapot. The setting is called quaint, tranquil and peaceful, a place to relax for a couple of hours without overwhelming noise, with lovely music and a homey feel. One reviewer mentions the beautifully restored church it sits in. Many single out the owner as lovely and welcoming, and a small shop selling unusual clothes and individual items gets a mention too. One visitor was handed handwritten travel tips for their tour.

“Me and my friend arrived here on a quiet Friday, it’s so peaceful and cute, the tea and cakes are wonderful and the owner is lovely and very welcoming. It was nice to relax for a couple of hours with a pot of tea and cakes without overwhelming noise and the surroundings are beautiful, Genuinely a hidden wee treasure. We will be back”

“What a lovely quaint wee place but what’s especially good is the homebaking and there’s a really good selection. If I lived nearer I’d be asking for a job there! The finger sandwiches were super fresh and soft and the home cooked ham was delicious. I will be going back.”

“We found this hidden gem by pure accident and couldn’t have been happier. The hospitality was exceptional, the cake, scones, and tea were delicious, and the setting inside a beautifully restored church was simply stunning. The handwritten travel tips for our tour were an incredibly thoughtful touch. Highly recommended”
