The Dining Room - Menu

Amazing afternoon tea. Such good value in great atmospheric surroundings. Make sure you go to the museum next door as well. Booking is required for both the museum and afternoon tea.

Lunch combined with a visit to the Charles Rennie Mackintosh. We had, Coronation Chicken on a Ciabatta Roll; and Butter nut Squash, Hollumi, Pepper Humous on Ciabatta. Also 2 cloudy apple drinks.

Mother's Day cream tea. This was a wonderful day a treat for my mum. Food was wonderful especially the coronation chicken. The deserts were brilliant and we left full and happy. The young lady serving the upstairs was wonderful and friendly and nothing was to much trouble View menu

beautiful afternoon and beautiful that they get some hearty items as well as sandwiches. but rather full of the time when we scorp the cake and scorp, but they encourage them to take home what they go. also beautiful that all the drinks they want are included and not only tea and coffee. will definitely go back. would recommend a booking although it is a small tee room.

Had afternoon tea which was excellent lots of food savoury served first on tiered stand nice selection not just the usual sandwiches them another tiered stand brought out of cakes and scones unlimited tea. Down side is the room is looking very tired shame when they spent all that money on the building extension they didn’t referb the tea room really let’s it down and spoils what otherwise would be a lovely afternoon tea

My family celebrated my Mums 80th birthday here today. It’s my favourite place in Northampton for afternoon tea and extremely good value. The food is excellent and there’s always some left over to take home. As a vegan the selection of sandwiches, pastries and cakes offered are amazing everyone else really enjoyed there’s too. Rachael always answered my emails promptly when organising the booking. I highly recommend a visit. View menu

We both thoroughly enjoyed the food, friendliness and excellent service in the Dining Room. The sandwiches, pastries, scones and cakes were all delicious. I will definitely go again soon. The tea was nice and consistently refilled and all for the one price. Definitely worth a visit, but allow at least and hour and a half as there is so much food you may struggle to eat it all. You get two food deliveries, savoury and sweet. We were there for 2 hours and took some lovely food home with us. A lovely location to catch up with old friends. Give them a try and I don’t think you will be disappointed.

The dining room felt like a disused back room in someone 's house; clean enough but not particularly inviting. The service was ok; the waitress was pleasant but we had to ask for extra drinks rather than being offered. Sandwiches were removed to make way for the deserts and we assumed they 'd be boxed up but unfortunately not. Remaining cakes we had to ask for them to be boxed up. The food was rather average; sandwiches and scones were nice (these were served warm and were very fresh) but the 'deserts ' appeared to be defrosted (or had spent some time in the fridge getting a little soggy), clotted cream served in fridge packs, jam in a ramekin with no serving spoon, strange pink faircakes th...

We were given a lovely table in the window for our Afternoon Tea voucher booking overlooking the garden and park opposite. The waitress was very nice and was on hand throughout our visit to top up the bottomless Tea and check we were happy with the food. The first tier arrived comprising of small sandwiches, cheese scones and mini quiche. The bitesize sandwiches were a little disappointing and could do with being of a more standard size. The second tier arrived and was more impressive with two large plain scones, clotted cream (Cornish potted version) and a huge serving of strawberry jam. Accompanying the scones was a selection of lovely fresh cakes and tarts which made up for the sandwiches... View menu
