Martha's Tea Rooms, Newquay (review)

Martha's Tea Room's, Newquay

Myself and my partner went in here as we were determined to have a cream tea whilst on holiday in Cornwall.
Walked in, and it was busy. 2 tables with one chair each, so we sat at one, and grabbed a chair from the other.
We ordered our cream teas, and did not have to wait long. The tea came first, hot, and with a local blend tea bag in each pot. Ample milk was given. Although there was a lack of sugar on the table, and I resorted to brown sugar for the last cup of tea from the pot (You get three good cups per pot)
The scones arrived, and we again were not disappointed. They were warm, and so very light. They would melt on the tongue. The cream was very nice, and quite a firm consistency. I was scowled at for making the scone the Devon way ( I am from Devon) with the cream first then the jam.
Anyway, these are the best cream teas we have ever had.
The savoury cream tea on the menu caught our eye, so we decided to go back later in the week to try them.
Again, we were not disappointed. The savoury cream tea was cheese scones, with cream cheese and onion chutney. Again, the scones were light, and delicious. Although myself and my partner both agreed that the sweet scones we had on the previous visit was a lot nicer.
We also had some home made cake whilst there. Again, these were gorgeous.

The only negative thing I would say about the place, is the lack of seating space. It is a small place and fills up quickly. If they had more tables, they would do a lot more business.

All in all, I would highly recommend visiting Martha's tea rooms.
