Valley Gardens Tea Rooms

The staff at this restaurant are extremely friendly and willing to accommodate dietary restrictions. When I inquired about vegan options, I was presented with a choice of either crisps or a homemade raisin biscuit. I opted for the biscuit, which was quite tasty. The availability of choices may vary depending on the time of day, so it is recommended to visit either when the restaurant opens or during lunchtime. For coffee, they offer non-dairy milk (soy), but due to their machine setup, it can only be added to black coffee afterwards, limiting the variety of drinks available. Outdoor seating and takeaway options are available, and the outdoor atmosphere is very calming.

My girlfriend and I took a stroll through Saltburn woods for the day and started feeling hungry. We decided to go to the tea room, but unfortunately, we left it until the last minute. We arrived just in time to place our order, and the waitress mentioned they had made some delicious vegan biscuits. It's a pity we arrived late and missed out on all the other vegan options that were available earlier.

The staff was very lovely and acommodating. There is some vegan ice cream, soy milk and they had a glutenfree vegan macaroon (which I didn‘t try because it didn’t really interest me plus I don‘t want glutenfree stuff, I want real cake). Unfortunately from the delicious looking plentiful cake buffet there was none vegan. Another disappointment was getting the tea in to go cups only. That a) didn‘t fit the victorian theme of the place, and b) is a really unsustainable choice. Updated from previous review on 2022-07-16

This lovely tea house is situated in charming gardens. My party and I chose to sit outside and indulge in a delicious oat cake in the late morning. Unfortunately, the only food option available at that time was the oat cake, as they had run out of vegan Magnum. However, they did offer soya milk as an alternative.

Plenty of choice for vegans including a vegan bake every day, a coconut based vegan ice cream and vegan cheese lunches.
