Granny Smiths - Blaby

We went for Afternoon Vintage tea for two on a group on 2 weeks ago. The cafe was freezing. We had to keep our coats on. Service was ok but we were the only customers for quite a while. We have sampled several afternoon teas from other places and Granny Smith 's is a let down. The sandwiches were plain and unexciting. The scones were ok. The cakes were very poor and cheap. No flair at all. The young lady serving us was pleasant enough although no problem every time she did anything does grate after a while. Course it 's no problem if you 're doing the job you 're being paid for. Won 't go back. Won 't recommend.

Three times my partner and i been to granny smiths first two times forty five minutes wait for bacon cobs today waited one hour still no bacon cob could see staff chatting in kitchen .we did not want to create a scene to upset other customers just left without having food we had paid for their idea of service is rubbish.

First of all, I must say that the two ladies working there when we visited were lovely, they greeted us in a very friendly manner and were welcoming and professional. The reason for the 2 stars is that the food wasn't the best. We paid £12.95 for a Groupon afternoon tea for two deal and having had several of these and visited other tea rooms we felt that in comparison with price, this was poor. The tea and coffee were great, the sandwiches however were extremely cold (been kept in a fridge? and the selection wasn't great, two ham, egg mayo, tuna mayo which was poor if you don't like mayo. The cakes were cheap packet types and so were the scones. I would imagine that all of the produce was purchased from the cheapest supermarket and unfortunately it let Granny Smiths down. I found that £12.95 for this meal was extremely poor and could not recommend.

First visit here and ham and cheese salad choice was good. Pleasant atmosphere and helpful staff. Next visit will be for a cream tea!

We changed our booking for Afternoon Tea from 5 adults to 3 adults giving plenty of notice. When we arrived we pointed out the child that was with us would only be having some cake from our selection. After 20 minutes of waiting we had to ask where the food was? Selection of sandwiches didn't meat the choice for the amount of people should have had 3 of each selection so we could all try it was mainly egg mayonnaise!!! Went to pay and was charged £40 (4 people) their reason was because we had a child with us and they had already sorted the food from 6am that morning when the original booking was for 5! Really??? We queried this only to receive a very rude short sharp response from the member of staff (Older member I would like to add.The younger member of staff was very pleasant) .Also overheard the rude staff member telling other people that they had ten minutes to finish their tea as she was closing !!! Completely spoilt our visit which was for a birthday. Definitely do not recommend this place and certainly wouldn't return. Very very rude and poor service.
