    I was looking for somewhere to take my mum for an afternoon tea on Saturday. It was very last minute and I didn't think that I would be able to get in anywhere, but I rang and they kindly let us book for that afternoon. Both myself and my mum are quite fussy eaters, and when we arrived I had a quick chat with the girl serving and she went out of her way to make sure that we did not get any sandwiches that we didn't like. When it came, there was a lovely arrangement of little bits to eat, little tea cup of lentil soup, little macaroon, quiche, little pizza, and much more! The sandwiches were very fresh and really tasty. It was one of the nicest afternoon teas we have ever had, and the price was very reasonable, the girl serving was lovely and friendly and nothing was too much trouble, would highly recommend!

    During lockdown Mad Hatters have been delivering the most wonderful afternoon teas. We have ordered a few of the special occasion ones now, and have never been disappointed! The presentation is lovely, the food is divine and all delivered straight to the door for a very reasonable price. We will most definitely be visiting the cafe venue when lockdown ends and they re open.

    The positives - the establishment is close to the town centre and the food is decent. Everything else - my fella found an auburn hair on his plate. He also faced a very unprofessional and unpleasant treatment from the staff when he asked for Assam tea, there was smirking, tuting and a particularly ironic I'll quote: 'We're not a specialist tea place' - could have fooled me, with a name like 'tea rooms'. When I addressed the hair, the staff bristled up and the cook tried to confront me and kept saying 'Should have said, should have said', instead of a genuine apology. The whole place reeks of cooking oil and as soon as you leave, you will too. There are better and friendlier places in Blackburn. Won't be returning.

    This is a great little place in Blackburn. Fantastic food and terrific staff. There is a basement with extra room. A great variety of cupcakes and you can take them away. They do everything from breakfast items. Hot food from hunters chicken on a ciabatta to eggs Benedict. Lots of choice on salads. Great choice on hot and cold drinks. They also stock fentimans brand of drinks. You have to try them. They also have a children's menu and high chairs are available. Great location being so close to town. They were busy but attentive to all the customers

    Excellent place - been going for years - they make lovely eggs Bénédicte and eggs royale but today for lunch I could not decide between the two of them and so I had extra crispy bacon on my eggs royale - man it was so tasty it made my mouth water while I was eating it (in fact my mouth is watering now just thinking about it). They have an excellent festive menu at the moment too. Looking forward to next week as I would like it again before Christmas 🙂 This establishment is well worth a visit. Very clean and tidy and friendly staff.

    Went today, had takeaway chicken ceasar salad, £4,95, which I thought was very reasonable. Really tasty, nice presentation, staff friendly, would definitely recommend. High standards towards food hygiene
