The Cottage Tea Rooms

As it says above. Charming and helpful staff, lovely sandwiches and cream teas, a fantastic location in a stunningly beautiful Devon village. Perfection.

The Cream Tea at this restaurant is absolutely delicious, and the view from the garden is wonderful. It definitely helped give me the energy to tackle the second half of the hill.

The Devon Cream Tea was heavenly. Two Slightly warm scones with delicious jam clotted cream generous portions. Excellent tea in a pot or coffee in a cafetière. Best cream tea!!! Stunning views, if sitting outside, over the bay Voir le carte

What a wonderful day it was! The cream tea was the perfect finishing touch. The staff was friendly and although we had to wait for a table, it was definitely worth it. Thank you for a fantastic experience. The prices were reasonable and it was definitely worth a visit.

This charming tea room offers fantastic views and excellent service. The staff is very friendly. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. The garden courtyard area offers lovely views. Located two-thirds of the way down to the harbor, it's a convenient stop on the way down or up.

Delicious food, generous portion sizes and a super view if you sit on the outside terrace. Friendly and welcoming staff. The baguette was well filled with crab and the prawns in the sandwich were large and juicy. The sugar topped jam doughnut with cream is a tearoom special with a nice story about its conception. A lovely place to stop halfway up or down your walk on the steep cobbled village streets Voir le carte

A sweet little tea room and a perfect place to stop and grab a bite to eat. We tried the Devon cream tea, which was absolutely delicious. The girls serving were really friendly, bright and accommodating. I would give this little gem a five star, but the only reason I didn’t was the endless flies in the dining room but I understand controlling this must be hard when the front door was kept open from incoming guests constantly.

Nestled in the heart of Clovelly village, this unassuming cafe/tea room surprises with a delightful feature that sets it apart from the rest – breathtaking views of the harbour and beyond. While the sandwiches and lunch mains may be average, the real treat lies in the panoramic views that comes with the outside seating. We had a few varieties of sandwiches, quiche and devon dressed crab, all of them were pretty average with a distinct lack of flavour and priced quite a way off what they would cost if it was sold somewhere else. An average rating based on the quality of the food.

I don’t intend to offend with this review however the experience described in other reviews is not what we had at all. We ordered the lord’s tea at £16pp and it was ok crab sandwich was very disappointing for a seaside resort but scones and tea were ok. The view is lovely which draws you in however the flies and wasps are a real issue and every table spent more time batting them away than enjoying their food. Clearing the tables and wiping them down efficiently would definitely have helped with that. There was a sort of ‘dumping table’ of plates and the wasps were just all over it. When we went inside to order there was a poor family sat near the counter and there had to be about 20 flies an... Voir le carte
