Lovely little café cum children's party/workshop venue.
The staff were very attentive and helpful.
The homemade cakes and scones were delicious and well presented. There was a good choice of drinks which were also pleasingly presented and nice.
I would thoroughly recommend the cream tea.

Popped in for tea around 5pm. The coffee & walnut cake with chocolate ganache was excellent, lovely tea and coffee too.

The cutest little find in Tankerton, all their cakes and bakes are homemade, the scones were delicious!
Service was great, so attentive and extra cream and water for the teas was always on hand.
A definite recommend if you're in the area :)

We spent a lovely afternoon with 3 toddlers, my sister and my husband today. The room at the back has a big choice of craft activities: pottery to paint, wooden fairy doors and canvasses. The scones are all freshly made and there is a big variety. The owner works very hard and was friendly today and a few weeks ago. He was very good with the children and gave them aprons and set them up with the activities and even gave them a sticker before we left. We will definitely look forward to next time.

We stumbled across this little gem of a shop and cafe and I'm so glad we did. The owners were so lovely and accommodating. We had coffees and the homemade scones which were all superb. There's also some lovely little treasures in the shop. I would definitely recommend a visit!

Delightful gem of a cafe. The lovely man behind the counter could not have been more friendly and made my 6 year old daughter feel very welcome.

Not being local and having a day trip to Whitstable for my birthday I wanted to have a typical day by the sea with tea and scones and didn't fancy brining them and all the gubbins with me so I found this cafe close to the beach hut we rented. I phoned in advance to place an order for several scones etc and boy they didn't disappoint. I had ordered a custom birthday cake from a baker in my town which was very disappointing and 3/4 of it was thrown away and these scones saved the day! Sue kindly delivered them directly to our beach hut along with a great iced coffee (scones still warm) with plenty of great jam and cream. I have to say the chocolate and cherry one is the best I've ever had and I was stuffed so had my second for breakfast the next day. If I was local I don't think I could stop myself from going there every day! We will be back and I will spend more time looking around their cute shop.
The food and service is top notch and I'd highly recommend visiting.
