Leger Lakes Tearoom — Restaurant in Rotherham

Leger lakes Tearoom they've not responded to my Facebook review and have blocked me and my partner! says it all!

We called in for the first time yesterday and it was mayhem. Chefs and staff putting things in a bin and not washing their hands, then getting cakes out for people with bare hands. Even the chef scraped scrambled eggs from the pan in the bin, didn't wash the pan just on with the next item to cook, he was also putting things in the bin, no hand washing after, then picking up someone's toast, going through the swinging door using hands. Great spread of bacteria. We ended up leaving without eating as I was disgusted. There was complaint after complaint, meals not being brought out correctly, people coming in, told to take a seat, then not going back to them, when they finally went up to the counter was told no food left. We were there about 40 minutes and not once told they were sorry but there is a wait. All staff were running around like loonies and plates being smashed, first and last time for Me.

Our first ever visit, and I can 100% say it won't be our last. The food was lovely, and top quality ingredients used. Freshly cooked and piping hot. The team were all very friendly and polite, and served promptly. We had a full English breakfast and a latte, and took home 2 slices of their Victoria sponge cake. The breakfast was excellent, couldn't fault it at all, the latte was just as good, and the cake ,well, it was spot on.

Well done to the team and look forward to seeing...
