Pinnies — Restaurant in Huntingdonshire

Stopped into Pinnies early afternoon while exploring the town and reading good reviews about the place.

It is in a nice quiet street with outdoor seating and a charming setup however I was sadly disappointed.

I had a pot of tea and scone.. and perhaps if this was my first tea shop visit during my UK trip I may have rated the scones higher however having become a bit of a scone expert over the past 4 weeks I had to compare it against my previous experiences and sadly it did not rate particularly well.

The most disappointing part of my visit however was how disorganised they were.

My partner had his haircut by the barbers next door and since my daughter had sat nicely whilst he was being serviced we decided to take a trip to this cafe that is located right nextdoor as a treat.

Once when I was trying to look at the menu on the wall and again when I knelt down to ask my three year old what she wanted to eat. After this I felt uncomfortable and unwelcome so I decided we should leave.

I thought the sign saying 'Dogs welcome, people tolerated" was a joke but it would not seem to be the...
