Seed Room — Restaurant in Wakefield

We recently enjoyed an afternoon tea experience for a group of six on a lovely Sunday afternoon, and overall, it was a delightful outing. The staff were incredibly accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our visit. The food was excellent, with a great variety of options that catered to different tastes. However, the open-faced sandwiches, while delicious, were a bit fiddly to eat. Traditional finger sandwiches might have been a more practical choice, as they’re easier to handle and less messy. That said, the sandwich selection itself was fantastic, offering a range of flavors that everyone in our group appreciated.

The cakes and accompanying desserts were equally enjoyable, with a nice mix of textures and flavors. Each item was well-presented and tasted fresh, making them a highlight of the experience. My only critique would be the size of the beverages included in the afternoon tea set. The tea and coffee portions felt a bit small, and by the time we finished them, we were left wanting another hot drink to pair with the cakes and desserts. A slightly larger serving or the option for a refill would have been ideal.

As for the ambiance, the interior is bright, airy, and surprisingly spacious, which was a pleasant surprise given how compact the place appears from the outside. There’s plenty of seating, and the layout allows for a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely afternoon tea. The natural light and tasteful decor added to the overall charm of the setting.

In summary, it was a wonderful experience with great food, friendly service, and a lovely atmosphere. A few small tweaks, like offering classic finger sandwiches and larger beverage portions, could elevate the experience even further. Nonetheless, we left feeling satisfied and would happily return for...

First visit. What a wonderful place to eat! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit today. Ourselves and our friends all had panini, salad and coleslaw. It was delicious! The wedges are amazing, especially with the sour cream and chive on the side, nice touch 👌. I love the fact you put the wedges and chips in the little plant pots, that was great. You have some wonderful staff that look very smartly dressed and work very fast and efficient. The mature lady with brown hair, sorry I didn’t catch her name, she was very smiley and pleasant and seems like a lovely member of staff to have. 5* for food and service. If you are ever in the area you won’t be sorry. I do wish the specials board was a little bit more noticeable or in view when entering. We were trying to work out what a dish that looked really popular as it was flying out. Then we realised when people kept standing near our table that the specials board was behind us and that a lot of people were having the open steak sandwich. It looked amazing!! We would have gone for that if we’d known. We really enjoyed what we had anyway, so please don’t think that was a complaint as it wasn’t. Thank you for a...

We thought we would try this cafe again as we had not been here in a while. We were greeted by a friendly and polite member of staff and shown promptly to a table. The selection of food is quite wide and a great selection of pasties and cakes. You order at the till but you have to set your own table as cutlery isn't provided by the staff. The cafe is very well spaced out and you can feel quite comfortable and relaxed They also have comfortable sofa type chairs to sit on. I would say probably best to book these if possible.

I ordered the 8oz bacon joint and we also had risotto. The latte I had was really good My food was very well cooked and served hot. It was really tasty 😋 My partner said the risotto was served hot and was very good. Overall it was a great experience and definitely will be going back. Price wise this cafe is at the top of the price scale so best to be aware before hand. The quality is definitely worth paying for. ❤️❤️😋😋 Well deserved 5...
