Customer Review Summary

Soup comes up again and again as the standout, from red pepper soup praised alongside "equally delicious cakes" to a soup-and-sandwich combo one diner called good value, and a soup-and-poached-eggs order singled out for spotless surroundings and helpful staff. Close behind, reviewers repeatedly highlight afternoon tea for special occasions, including an 80th birthday lunch where staff added decorations and brought out an unexpected dessert with a candle, and a 50th birthday afternoon tea called incredible. Several also mention the outdoor play area and garden seating as family friendly touches, and staff are consistently called friendly and accommodating. One reviewer flags value concerns, noting a £5 scone and £2.90 tea felt pricey though still worth returning for. Another, more serious complaint describes being charged £16 for a single cup of tea and finding the place "nothing to shout about," a sharp outlier against the otherwise warm accounts. Most reviewers say they'd return, with several recommending booking ahead for tables.

“We booked the Sunshine Tearooms for an 80th birthday lunch. They stock alcohol and a lovely range of food which is always beautifully made. All of the staff were absolutely wonderful and made it such a special afternoon. They put decorations up for us that they had and we also added some of our own. They also brought a little dessert out unexpectedly with a candle which was a really thoughtful touch. Would absolutely recommend Sunshine Tearooms. Prices are reasonable and it’s really clean with playground at the rear and accessible car parking. Thank you everybody for making it a memorable day. Nothing was too much trouble.”
