We visited today to find much needed new owners in place, we received a warm welcome & tasty food, We had delicious a panini, served beautifully with a salad garnish, homemade coleslaw & crisps. We are looking forward to our next visit. Keep up the...good work ladies 😊More

The Cosy Tea Room is a lovely little place with amazing freshly cooked quiche and cheese scones. Obviously there is more to eat but everything is fresh and tastes amazing. The coffee is lovely and my wife really enjoys the tea. We actually go there...2 sometimes 3 times a week. Extremely friendly and welcoming.More

We called in today mid-way through a slightly soggy walk. We each chose the really tasty red potato and butternut squash soup with a cheesy roll. The soup was probably the best of its type that we have ever tasted and the warm cheesy roll...complemented it perfectly. That was followed by an excellent coffee and a warm brownie. The latter was made by the owner’s daughter, a trainee pastry chef - she’s got real talent!. All this at a reasonable price with very friendly service! Next time we're in the area we will be back!More

Our walking group called in today to find that the tea rooms have reopened under new ownership. We were given a friendly welcome and enjoyed drinks and a snack - and a free scone on our way out! This is back on our itinerary list....Good luck for your future business.More

Visited today pm on our way to Folkestone from Leicester.made very welcome. Excellent coffee and scrumptious Danish pastries. Very friendly staff. Even got treats for our dog. Will go again. New ownership

We have been here several times as we are local and pass through the area frequently. It’s a lovely, pleasant place to sit, relax and refresh. Overall it is good. Friendly staff in a quiet, clean and cosy cafe. The teas and coffees are good....However, their website advertises they use produce from local farms. They do not. It is from Tesco. As local award-winning food producers ourselves, this was a big let-down. It’s not hard to buy local goods, support the local economy and get excellent ingredients for good value. I say that from our own experience and knowledge. An easy, obvious win here has been overlooked and missed. The Cosy Tea Rooms don’t allow dogs which - for a place in the heart of countryside walks - is disappointing and means we visit less often than we otherwise would. For a comfy stop-off, The Cosy Tea Rooms are nice and I’d happily recommend for a tea break, snack and rest point on a long walk or cycle ride. But if you want to experience quality local produce and a true taste of Kent, you’ll need to go elsewhere. (The opening times advertised on here need correcting. They open at 10am not 09:30.)More

We used to use this cafe frequently however it has just changed hands! Couldn't manage to make beans on toast correctly - bread not toasted definately one to avoid Jacket potato and beans on toast with 2 hot drinks £15.50 ;-( Staff were cluelessMore

This used to be my go to place when taking my mum to lunch, it lived up to its name being very cosy, quaint, welcoming with lovely home made food. It has recently changed ownership, what a shame. The new owners have obviously decided to...put their own stamp on it. It is no longer cosy, all bright yellows and turquoise. Gone are the flowery tablecloths to be replaced by stark white waxed cloths emblazoned with the cafe name. No more pretty paintings on the walls, or tempting little nic nacs to buy, The food also has changed. The salads, quiches and pies are no longer made on site, the display cabinet showed an array of dried up unappetising looking pies/sausage rolls, no tempting salads at all. We opted for jacket potato, my Mums favourite. The potato was ok, but the accompanying salad was much smaller than previously, three slices of cucumber, three slices of tomato, scant dessert spoon of coleslaw, a few leaves, and the smallest amount of butter imaginable. Previously the accompaniment would have been three tasty side salads (homemade) cherry tomatoes, cucumber and green salad, and a decent amount of butter. They seem to be focusing more on branded teas and coffees, possibly some sort of promotion deal. All in all a very disappointing visit, which didn’t warrant the 30 minute drive each way. Probably time to find a new venue.More

Great welcome, friendly staff, excellent service delicious sandwiches, yummy cakes and pretty china cups and saucers a perfect afternoon tea and a perfect place to have a Baby Shower PS Lovely toilets!!!

Very disappointing. We chose this place for breakfast as opposed to the hotel next door expecting a home cooked breakfast. We did wonder if they were prepared as it was 9.00 ish? The tea had an odd smell We live in Kent and the water...can have a chemical smell. It needs to be filtered. The poached egg in toast was bread not toast so soggy, the egg wasn’t great with a small yolk and the poaching watery, bacon was hard and chewy. The staff were lovely and friendly. Such a shame.More

Delightful tea shop serving top notch home made cakes and pastries. Light and airy premises, good local feel to the place and friendly people. Good value.
