This cafe used to be cozy, welcoming and good value but now it is too formal and officious for a shop cafe. You now have to wait to seated and be served. The outside area is now padlocked too so no access from the side...street. There was no ambience and poor choice. It is no wonder not many people were there - more staff than customers! Food was okay but overpriced and basic. A great shame because it was one of our favourite stop offs in Dulverton.More

Stop here for a quick lunch while passing through. Food was very nice and well priced. The brothers that ran the place were brilliant hosts, very warm friendly atmosphere. Really enjoyed our time here, will be back next time we visit exmoor.

Not as cosy and welcoming as we were hoping. Does not feel relaxed. Food was acceptable but nothing special.

A lovely little cafe, plenty to choose from and fabulous friendly staff:) would highly recommend! We had delicious cakes, sausage roll and ice cream for the little one 😋

It's a joy to shop in this shop and cafe! Lovely gifts, cards and food in the shop and then go to be seated in the cafe at the rear. I chose a delicious spinach and lentil dal soup for £6.50 and it came very...quickly with lovely bread. A strong decaf coffee was not a problem (it seems to really stump some place) and I would have liked a cake but didn't want to make my after-lunch walk too difficult. What really sets The Tantivy apart from other places is the outstanding customer service. The lady in the shop (who I think may have been new) was friendly; the man dashing between shop and cafe was super-efficient and cheery despite there being a little flurry of customers; the chef plainly knew his stuff. I'm going to save the best till last though. The waitress was just a joy to watch! Friendly and fast she worked the room like an absolute professional, stopping to chat with regulars but giving equal time to people like me just passing through. She shone with positivity and dropped compliments to everyone around her. We don't give enough credit in this country to the hospitality industry, possibly because you don't often see it being done this well. The Tantivy made my trip to Dulverton a really happy and positive experience! Thank you.More

Have been going here for quite a few years when we lived in the area. Now we have moved away we like to visit when we can and still it serves delicious coffee and very tasty bacon sandwiches.

Lovely little cafe with very friendly staff. Had a flat white with a nice warm fresh scone. Peaceful. And for the coffee: it’s a proper flat white not a milky coffee! Very nice!

We called into Tantivy ad they had a garden area out back, having a dog it's always a good option. We was quite a large group, two family's totaling seven. We was always made extremely welcome and food was always great. Drinks and cakes with...large selection. Milk shakes made with ice cream, sanwiche's made with fresh baked bread, And quality meats. The shop itself has a huge selection of produce. Papers, magazines. Gifts, jams , salad dressings , take out pastys. Such a large selection of everything. I also particularly liked the fact that they sell the same brand of crokery they use to serve food and drinks in the shop. You realy get the feeling of a freindly place to be. Thank you all who work there for providing us with a great experience. Dogs are also allowed inside which also has a large seating area.More

Went to Dulverton just to have a look around as we had driven through a few times. Needed a bite to eat and a coffee and this was the first place we came to across the road from the main car park. Very lovely staff,...small little outdoor area for seating. Good selection of cold food and drinks. Cream tea provided (it was good, scones warmed, quite thick and dense and very crumbly). Reasonable price for everything, clean and tidy, dog friendly. I ordered a few cakes to take-away which they were happy to cater for. The shop is a lovely little gem too with plenty to keep your attention and tempt your wallet out.More

We thoroughly enjoyed our welsh rarebit and bruschetta and a very large pot of tea for two. We would recommend

As always a friendly welcome, great service and excellent food and coffee at The Tantivy today. Bacon sandwiches are fantastic and the coffee is exceptional. If you have got room, the cakes are amazing.

Excellent friendly service 👌... We decided to go for a road trip, our first stop off was Dulverton. We saw this cafe and decided to stop off for a cuppa. Such wonderful service and we definitely recommend the Mocha .. our little girl was in...her element looking around the shop afterwards.More
