Had a fantastic afternoon tea for £5! Good choice of sandwich and great sweet selection beautifully presented. The staff were attentive and very helpful. Any recommend this gem of a tearoom enough.

Came here for my birthday Afternoon Tea..... WOW � There was 7 of us all together and they brought it all out on one stand. Brilliant that you get to chose what sandwich you like and even more brilliant that its on a thick bloomer. Spent ages looking through the shop and bought some bargains. Was by luck that i came across this place and i will definitely be returning. Cosy welcoming and quirky. Loved it. Well done u guys xx

What a hidden gem! The staff are extremely warm and friendly while the cakes are simply delicious. Parking dedicated to the emporium made it really accessible.

Beautiful shop. Many different options. 3 floors of shopping. Nice Cafe attached as well. Looking forward to visiting again. Lots of restored furniture :)

Sheila Lidster

Lovely shop, something for everyone, and good prices. Cafe is very nice and clean, well decorated. Cakes are gorgeous, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Lovely Sunday lunch. Great value. There was a large group of us. Staff were very efficient in serving us. Very interesting place. You need quite a bit of time to look round at all the lovely things for sale

They've got some lovely stock. I was purchasing annie sloan paint. There's a cafe too although we didn't have a cuppa, will do next time.

This quaint little tea room has recently been taken over again but still serves top quality food and drinks. Locally is still known as the Emporium but the new name has changed to the Little Siam. Oriental food is now available with a variety of different dishes, while still doing breakfast up to 12" o"clock and panini's and a special board as before, along with a great selection of cake, scones and puddings which are fresh and tasty. New owners are really friendly and hopefully it is a success for them. Well worth a drop in for a coffee and cake if you don't want a big meal. Sunday lunch is served as normal and they also do a smashing afternoon tea. Try it and see for yourself.

Kettle tea rooms - Amazing takeaways and even better pies. Shaun the chef is very knowledgeable of gluten free and coeliacs diet and ensures nothing is cross contaminated as his other (better half as he claims :-)) is also coeliac. Fantastic service, great food and a homely feeling set and ready to serve when we can eat out again. For now they offer an affordable and catering takeaway service with at outstanding quality. We will defo be picking up again and make this place our go to takeaway on a regular basis. Thanks again for the awesome food, me and the happy wife look forward to the next trusty gluten-free fresh and tasty experience. Best place in mexborough

I love this place. The afternoon tea is always delicious and it's a really good price at a fiver per head. The little cafe is so cosy, especially at this time of year with the beautifully decorated Christmas tree and the log burner ablaze. I always have a look around at the shabby chic furniture and knick knacks on display. There's always something different to see. The only down side is that it's cash only which in this day and age seems very outdated but I suppose that's how prices are kept so low.

Really really nice place, gorgeous antiques and collectibles. The tea room is outstanding, the food is amazing and generally it's just such a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Paul Shortt

Went recently for a lunch. Excellent service. Welcoming staff and the food was lovely. The manager there offered a light hearted and friendly atmosphere. Would recommend. 10/10.
