Marmalade House Cafe and Tea Rooms — Restaurant in Wales

A mixed experience. Let's start with the good. The food was good, the staff were delightful the decor is charming. So why not a five star? Well it was a lovely sunny day and although we would have liked to sit inside there was insufficient space. We sat out. Although the tables could have had sun umbrellas, they didn't and the sun was hot. We sat and we sat having been brought menus and finally I went in and ordered in the restaurant. It was very counter intuitive as it was table service and the menus had be brought out. We were sitting in the street on the last day before reopening to traffic. I have to say that sounds like an error. Had there been traffic I would not want to sit there. It's also surprising when restaurants with outside space don't maintain the cleanliness as they would indoors. We were sitting amongst cigarette buts and discarded bottles. It would only take minutes to sweep each morning. So a bit of a mixed bag. it's sort of very British to run customer service in this way. If you go it will be nice but you may find the service a little...

It's an absolutely amazing tea room.

This tea room has exceptionally good cakes and sandwiches. Also, pennines wraps daily special and even a special curry on a Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

Everything we had was freshly prepared, unlike the coffee chains near by it was busy, so we had a little wait for food, but I'd rather that than a meal made in a factory.

The person serving was so friendly and welcoming.

Cleanliness was great it was absolutely spotless.

Due to the very old age of the building, access is a bit tight if you have a wheelchair ♿️ but it's worth the effort the staff will I'm sure make you love your visit as much as I did.

I loved the charm and feel of the place also.

If you live local or just visiting, this has to be on you, go to list.

I honestly have to say it was the best pennine I've ever had. Can't wait to make a return visit. I'm going to try amthr special...

Where do I start. I booked Marmalade for my best friends baby shower. We had the most amazing day. The high tea was delicious. I cannot fault the service. The weather was so hot so they provided fans and an air con unit. Nothing was too much trouble. They even stayed open an extra hour for us to enjoy our shower to the fullest. I cannot recommend this place enough. I will definitely be going there again. Plus a shout out to the owners for being so hospitable to everyone. They made my job of being host so much easier. Thank you Marmalade Tea Rooms for being the perfect venue for the best baby shower. Plus putting up with my craziness. Corralling 15+ women takes a lot of planning and organisation. You made the day go so smooth. We will never forget it. Thank you so much to you all the whole team. Forever in your gratitude....
