Wonderberrys — Restaurant in Eastleigh

Nice environment. Welcomed straight away. Given a booth like VIPs as we were having a afternoon tea. Staff were attentive and polite. Was then told us what was in store for us. From then it was a bit disappointing. It was an afternoon tea for 3. But it was served on a cake stand designed for 2. Ultimately you tell yourself it's going to be crammed on or less. Turns out as I suspected was less. We were told we could have all sorts of tea mixes. Unfortunately I'm not a tea drinker. Was told filter coffee was an option. Not a fan of that either. So asked if latte was an option and I'd pay extra. That wasnt and I'd have to pay the full price. Normally I pay just a little extra elsewhere. The cake stand was bought and for your money there were 4 sandwiches each an inch wide on the bottom layer. No options available. 1 ham and I think pickle. Wasnt sure as it was spread so thin. 1 egg and mayonnaise on white bread Fine. 1 beef and horseradish. The beef was thin and bizarrely a cucumber sandwich on white bread. No options to bread preference either. I'm not a fan of white bread. But it wasnt even a nice white bread. Just your standard average sliced loaf. Put together it would have been equivalent to a sandwich with the crusts off. We saw all these delicious cakes as we entered the shop and I thought we were in for a treat. On the middle plate of the cake stand that would normally serve 2 were 4 different cakes crushed together. Standard cakes. 1 small brownie each. Approximately 2" by 3". 1 caramel and pretzel shortcake each.. And a piece carrot cake all the same size. The other cake was like a Victoria sponge with the cream and jam on top was smaller still. There were scones on the top tier which were smaller than average. But were told there was another one if we wanted it. Lashings of clotted cream and enough jam. But to be fair how much cream can you put on a scone. Personally at £16.50 each at a total cost of £49.50 + £5 extra for coffee I'd go somewhere else. I have had afternoon tea elsewhere and it was far more superior to this, for less. I'm not a big eater. But I left feeling less than satisfied and rather peckish to say the least. Normally I feeling rather full after the cakes and ask for a box for the cream teas so I could have them later. We would have been better off going in as normal customers. Ordering a sandwich, slice of cake and coffee of our choice for the same price. I'd have been far happier and felt less ripped off. And to be fair their normal sandwich and cake did look delicious as we walked out and looked what others had ordered. If you're going to visit. Just use their normal menu. You may not...

We happened to come across this coffee shop while we were in Victoria Country Park, as the restaurant there had limited options for quick snacks. We decided to walk to the nearby row of shops and we are glad we did. It was a beautiful coffee and cake shop. I ordered a tuna sandwich, which was exceptionally delicious. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the bread was very fresh. It has been a long time since I have had such a great tuna sandwich. We also tried the carrot cake, which was absolutely delightful and deserves a perfect score of 10 out of 10. It was truly mouthwatering. Along with these delectable treats, we also enjoyed some hot beverages. The ambiance of the place was very inviting and spotlessly clean. The customer service was outstanding, and all the staff members were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be returning to try their famous...

My partner and I must've walked passed this cafe numerous times and never noticed it until today (the tinted windows makes the place less conspicuous?).

Inside was quite spacious with a great number of tables and places to sit. For dog owners, the garden will be opened in the next couple of weeks, according to the staff (who were really friendly and welcoming I should say). More importantly, the cakes and pastries were just wonderful. I had the Victoria Sponge which was really moist, fluffy and not overtly sweet. My partner had the donut of the day which was filled with a Kinder- Nutella and cream gooey centre contained in a crispy, scrummy exterior. Quite happy with the generous cup of cappuccino as well.

Overall what a lovely neighbourhood cafe that's conveniently just down the road from where we live. It's definitely...
