Step Back in Time: Immerse Yourself in Our Living History Tearoom

In the quaint corner of our shop at The Kitchen Front, on the Lower Wharf next to Bude Canal discover a piece of history at our 1940s’ Tea Room. Open from Tuesday to Saturday, 10 am to 5 pm, we provide an intimate setting for up to 8 people. To ensure you secure your spot, kindly give us a call the day before to book, as we tend to get quite busy!

Pre-booking not only allows us to prepare for any special dietary needs but also opens the door to a wider range of sandwiches and cakes, enhancing your dining experience. We appreciate your cooperation; it enables us to offer a better and more personalized service. We have a 1950’s oven and in 20 minutes we can be serving you the freshest of scones!

Indulge in large pots of loose-leaf tea or coffee, accompanied by original 1940s recipe cakes—no modern twists here! Immerse yourself in a living history tearoom, complete with fine bone china, a replica Wartime newspaper to peruse, and the enchanting strains of big band swing in the air.

Heralded as a ‘little gem of a place’ and a ‘really unique 5-star experience,’ our 1940s’ Tea Room provides a fabulous alternative to your regular take-away coffee and cake. Come, sit, relax, and relish the special calm atmosphere we’ve crafted just for you.
