I recently visited this charming tea room in Eastbourne and was absolutely delighted with my experience. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the cozy and inviting atmosphere. The decor was elegant and tasteful, with beautiful vintage touches that added to the overall charm of the space.
The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they made me feel right at home. I ordered a pot of tea and was impressed by the wide selection of high-quality teas on offer. The tea was served in a beautiful teapot with a matching cup and saucer, and it tasted absolutely divine.
The food was also exceptional, with a variety of delicious sandwiches, scones, and cakes on offer. Everything was freshly made and beautifully presented, and the flavors were simply exquisite.
Overall, I would highly recommend this tea room to anyone looking for a delightful and memorable experience. The staff are friendly and attentive, the atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the food and tea are simply outstanding. If you're in Eastbourne, be sure to stop by this lovely tea room - you won't be disappointed!
I went to try cream tea 3 weeks ago, it was good . The employees are very sweet and friendly. A small but very sweet cafe
Amazing place, lovely atmosphere and delicious scones. Be immerse with Charles Dickens memorabilia while having delicious food. Reasonably priced menu. A wonderful family run tea room.
Amazing place, cute and vintage little cafe with amazing food. Me and a friend had an afternoon tea there and was delicious and the people there were very friendly. I felt like home.
There’s nothing quite like a proper English Cream Tea! And I had a lovely one yesterday at Dickens Tea Cottage comprising a generously filled fresh sandwich (I had tuna & sweetcorn) on good quality bread, a large warm fresh fruit scone with individual pot of strawberry jam & clotted cream, a good piece of homemade shortbread, a large slice of the freshest, lightest most delicious homemade coffee cake and an individual pot of tea that made three cups. Entering Dickens Tea cottage is like stepping back in time - in a good way. As soon as you enter, the hustle and bustle of everyday life recedes a little and you immediately start to unwind. There are curios everywhere you look. The walls are festooned with pictures and photos and there is an abundance of books available for reading. The service is wonderful. All of the staff are polite and friendly and cannot do enough for you. All food is homemade, fresh, delicious and very good value. Dickens Tea Cottage is a hidden gem that I am absolutely delighted to have found. I’m already looking forward to returning next time I’m down in Eastbourne! :)
Fantastic!! Freshly baked scones, Delicious with a perfect texture
Overwhelming decor and such character infused with real British culture!
I couldn't have askes for better sevice and quality of cakez, sandwiches, tea and fun!
Small, cosy and very interesting. Absolutely full of Dickens-belia a made up word! Fascinating to look around the walls. Refreshments were lovely and quite reasonably priced. Toilet is accessable via steep, narrow stairs which may be challenging for some. Cash only payment.
We go here for a great cup of tea and a choice of homemade cakes and a fantastic apple crumble with ice cream.
Went in May and also end of July. We are going again at the end of August.
Very kind service, lovely food (we’ve had the merinque and the apple crumble), and a very autenthic enviroment.
We came to this tea room as a group of 11 as part of our mini weekend away . Owners were so helpful over the phone before we arrived this was already a positive start . From the minute we arrived we felt welcomed as we was early and what a beautiful little tea room with amazing interior. Service was not at fault at all and food was amazing as standards go by . My friends and family had a lovely time from start to finish and we will definitely be retuning to this amazing little treasure in Eastbourne . Thankyou Dickens tea cottage x
So love this place. One of my favourite cafe’s in town. It feels like you’re in an old Britain. Very quaint interior. Staff are also very friendly.
Lovely little tea room, popped in with my granddaughter for a quick hot chocolate & piece of cake..
Dickens Tea Cottage is a wonderful experience. The walls are full of interesting items. Lovely staff, very helpful. The menu is full of delightful meals. I had the omelette with salad and chips.
