Lockton Tea Rooms & Gallery — Restaurant in England

The Lockton Tea Rooms and Gallery is an absolute gem. The owners, the location, the setting, and the food - altogether deliver a most enjoyable, friendly, community-minded, and community-spirited focal point for this remote rural village. This has all been achieved over a relatively short period of time, and against health, financial, and operational odds, delivering a new centre of community, culture, contact, and care - and which is testament to the lovely folk who run it. I am a regular visitor, and I know some of the hard work and dedication that they have put into this business, not just for themselves, but for the greater good as well. And, I have nothing but utter disdain for a recent 1* reviewer who exposes only his personal political agenda, rather than having taken the time to investigate the challenges faced by tiny rural businesses serving their community, and celebrating their little successes instead of delivering similar ill-founded and thoughtless reviews across the length and breadth of the UK.

The place runs by two charming gentlemen who made us feel welcome and relaxed. It has an easy parking and outdoor eating area. And the most important part it’s dog friendly. So I can’t recommend it more, if you are in the area this place not...

Just returned from the November Supper Club event at the Lockton Tea Rooms. What a fantastic meal! I had the three courses, starting with the brown butter potato cake with smoked cheese and chive. The flavour was delicate and light and the texture was like a dreamy cloud! Delicious. Followed by harissa spiced lamb tagine and couscous. Expertly balanced flavours, with the fresh lemon in the cous cous contrasting with the melt in the mouth rich lamb. Then, PUDDING! Sticky date sponge and ginger custard. I would have gone back for seconds if I could. I had two (large) glasses of shiraz and I could not have been happier. It was a lovely evening with exceptional food, great service and lovely surroundings. Thank you, I hope we...
