Mabel's Tearoom - Menu

The staff are always friendly and helpful. The food is fresh and nicely served. Our cheesecake desert was so big we had to ask for a bag to take half home. Well worth a visit.

What a gem of a place. We went for our works christmas meal. The food was fantastic and the service was even better. Friendly staff, piping hot food. Great works do! Even met a celebrity ;

Great food, lovely service. Local tearoom to me so I will definitely be visiting again. Staff helpful and very cosy environment. Fire was burning , Lovely shops to visit within the craft centre. View menu

I love this adorable tea room. I have been plenty of times and I can't believe I have not done a review. You are in cake heaven when you are in there. Can eat in or take away. Afternoon tea is also served if you book in advance.

We visited Mabel's twice in one day in the morning for tea and then for lunch later, both part way through a walk. We were surprised by the large number of tables but the separate rooms gave a more intimate feel. Our drinks and food on both occasions were fine and we received good assistance from the staff who delivered the food and cleared tables. Just one thing prevented me giving a 5 star review which was that they have someone taking orders at the counter on arrival who was not as welcoming or and friendly as one might have liked.

Visited this morning with my partner.We chose a table and I went to order the food.20 minutes later I got to the front of the queue after negotiating the many children in Halloween costumes wanting separate lunches.Surely a buffet or pre arranged food should have been provided for a big extra activity like that rather than hold everyone else up.I was served by a very abrupt member of staff who then had till problems holding things up even more. Eventually the food arrived which was lovely food but the wait was unnecessary and unacceptable. Won't be hurrying back. View menu

I went to Mabel’s today, as I always used to go as lovely homemade cakes.After today’s visit not sure I will go back.We did go at lunchtime and it was busy but the attitude of one of the assistants was awful, good customer staff service was not on her menu today. After ordering and paying I was told they had run out so I ordered something of the same value so not to get snapped at. The food I ordered was ok but wouldn’t have again and my friends toastie was not a toastie as normally served. Very disappointed. My dessert looked lovely but failed to deliver on taste. Then miraculously they managed to find more of what I had been told they had run out of.Really sorry but not the Mabel’s and qua...

Visited Curborough visitors centre and found the very lovely Mabel’s Tearoom. Wednesday, midweek 12:30. Deciding on a coffee we made our first attempt to be served. There was a very long queue, service seemed slow so we went for mooch around the garden centre. On our return, the queue was a little better and we did manage to get served. This may be an indication of how popular this ‘off the beaten track’ tearoom is? Mable’s has a nice atmosphere, good choice of food ranging from snacks, meals and a wide variety if cakes, not too expensive, plenty of seating. There is a note on the menu to warn there may be a wait for food at busy times. More of a leisurely lunch than fast food experience, wh...

Been a regular here for many, many years for coffee and their amazing cake. We thought we’d treat some guests who were staying with us from overseas, telling them they’d love this place. Big mistake. They don’t serve sandwiches etc after 2.30 which we didn’t realise, but we were told this so rudely by the lady behind the counter that it was quite embarrassing. One of our group asked for a sausage roll, which it transpired could only be served cold as it was after 2.30. This meant it was heavy, chewy and got left largely uneaten. Conversely the orange juice which accompanied it was room temperature and we had to ask for some ice (which was served by one of the younger staff who were far more... View menu
