What a lovely place. The cream tea we had with home made scones and clotted cream was superb and only £3 each, a real steal! The ambience inside was 40s style , the staff were really friendly and the cakes, oh those cakes, looked amazing. A real find and a wonderful treat. Definitely one to visit again!
Fantastic little tea room, beautiful delicious cakes and scones, lovely fresh coffee too. A nice selection of tea. The owner and staff make you feel very welcome. We highly recommend it. Such a delightful place, far from the same old over priced, underwhelming coffee shops you see on every high street now.
As my wife and I love a good afternoon tea, we thought that we would pop into Carriages, and what a lovely experience it was! The staff are welcoming and couldn't do enough for us, the ambience is great and the food and tea was outstanding. There is a huge amount of variety and food in the afternoon tea, so much so we couldn't finish it all and had to take the rest home! It was without doubt one of the best afternoon teas that we have and would thoroughly recommend to anyone. (FYI, they don't do cards so in true 40's style they only take cash haha)
Lovely visit today, I took my boys for afternoon tea. The food was great, the scones are delicious and the chocolate cake was amazing!! Super friendly staff and a beautiful place. Definitely go and try it out!!!
I recently visited with my friend and 4 children. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed our afternoon tea. They were able to provide gluten-free food for one of our party, which was very helpful. There is a couple of things that let the experience down. We didn't all get our lunch at the same time. The children were served first, then one adult, then the gluten-free. This meant that the children were almost finished eating before the adults had started. Secondly, the children were served Fruit Shoots which is not in keeping with the experience. Perhaps pic-nic crockery with diluted juice would look better. I am sure it is possible to purchase something which would blend in with the traditional adult crockery
Friendly staff, welcoming, beautiful bread used in the sandwiches, very fresh. Also beautiful home made cakes. Very dog friendly, waitress kindly brought my dog a bowl of water and offered treats. Will definitely return many times
Fabulous, first visit today. Lovely food and fantastic cakes. Vintage touches throughout adding to the experience, music and service. Sweet shop awesome. Very friendly owner, will definitely be returning!
Really nice family run business with a generous and homely approach to food service and portion size. If there's a single negative, it's that some of the popular items can sell out before lunchtime, but that just shows how much custom this quaint little spot is generating.
Would love to see them pair up with some of the retro/reenactment groups in the area to offer authentic period outdoor catering.
Lovely vintage tea room in long Eaton. They have a varied menu from sandwiches, jacket potatoes, scones and cakes, do gluten free soya milk.Need to book as gets busy.
