We found Shelly’s Tea Room by surprise the other day and we are so glad we did! The tea room was warm and welcoming. Decorated beautifully with touches of England all around. The hostess Shelly, was so pleasant and I just love her English accent! The teas were so good! And there were so many to choose from, we will definitely be back to sample more! The scones abs cakes were to die for!! So delicious!! And if all if that wasn’t enough, their sweet golden retriever greeted us and let us scratch his belly! It was really a wonderful experience!
Love Shelly’s tea room!! It’s a perfect little treat with some friends or family! A wide assortment of teas and delicious scones, cakes and sandwiches! We have a daughter with celiac with 0 gluten tolerance…Shelly did all she could to accommodate and hooked us up with a celiac friendly fresh jar of jam and clotted cream free of cross contact! MUCH Appreciated!
Always a delight to spend time in the tea room, with Shelly and the tea room star, Buddy, the golden retriever. Pinkys up!! ❤️
Afternoon tea at Shelly’s was absolutely delicious. We greatly appreciated all the gluten free, dairy free, and vegan options which were absolutely amazing! The service was wonderful and the owners were so thoughtful and welcoming. Thank you for an amazing and memorable time!
We stumbled upon this beautiful gem on Thanksgiving day. We really enjoyed it! The tea and pastries were wonderful. The tea set was beautiful. The customer service was excellent. Definitely an experience I will always remember. If we lived close by I would definitely frequent this place often.
Wonderful & casual atmosphere, and very welcoming. Greeted warmly and excellent service. So many different teas to choose from. I chose the mountain Kenya tea and it was very good. Finger sandwiches were delicious and the pastries so very good. Will definitely being going back again!!!
My daughter and I had the loveliest experience at Shelly’s today with our first-ever Afternoon Tea. We made a fun occasion of it so came dressed to impress, and the atmosphere didn’t disappoint. My little one was dazzled by the pretty tea cups and dainty spoons. What a pretty, cozy place with such kind and friendly staff! The tea selection is outstanding and the scones to die for. Mostly we enjoyed how comfortable and relaxed the setting was, where we enjoyed our treats and one another. We will recommend this to everyone and can’t wait to visit again!
Visited Shelly’s this afternoon and it was amazing. There were so many teas to choose from! The scones, tea sandwiches, and little desserts were all wonderful! Service was terrific! We can’t wait to go back!
Authentically English, the cream tea took me back to my childhood!
Charming hosts and wonderful decor a must visit
My husband and I had the full tea and it was wonderful!! The finger sandwiches were yummy, the cakes delicious, the trifle brought me back to my childhood when my English Mum would make it, and the scones are the best!! The atmosphere is elegant yet cozy and comfortable too. We had a lovely chat with the owners at the end. Cannot recommend Shelly's enough. An absolutely lovely experience all together!! <3
Excellent service and authentic English afternoon tea. Everything was so delicious, I can’t wait to go back!
Today was our first time at the tea room. I made a reservation for 7 people for 12:20. We arrived on time to find the table was only set for 5!
We waited over 5 minutes to get someone to bring another table over. And then had to wait almost another 5 for the chairs. All the other tables had a nice glass top over the tablecloth. Ours had none. We had to wait at least another 15 minutes to get waited on. Our sugar bowl was empty. 11.95 for 6 tiny finger sandwiches is way over priced.
They do not have enough help as it appears one woman does it all!
Dunbar tea room in Sandwich is far better in my opinion.
It was a fun experience to do with my girls but probably will not go back
We had such a great time at Shelly's Tea Room celebrating my friend's birthday! I will definitely be back!
I enjoyed my afternoon tea at Shelly’s very much it felt like being invited to a lovely tea at a neighboring home in the UK where they pull out all the stops to serve you a delicious meal! A first class assortment of lovely teas,Tea sandwiches with the crusts off,scones with clotted cream, and sweets! Perfection right down to lovely Buddy a golden who sat by our feet and let us give him belly rubs. ❤️
My mother and I went here for her birthday. We decided to dress for the occassion. We had so much fun drinking tea (hibiscus iced tea, earl gray black and raspberry flavored) and talking. The petite sandwiches were delicious. Scones with the clotted cream and jam are to DIE for. Its worth the experience! Cant wait to do it again!
Highly recommend making reservations as they have limited tables and fills up fast.
Loved the atmosphere...I have always wanted to try an authentic English Tea room experience.... The owners/staff are so pleasant/polite!!!
I enjoyed the Windsor Afternoon Tea that came with:
*4 types of finger sandwiches (2 servings of each)
*2 scones (a choice of 4 flavors) and comes with clotted cream/jelly/butter
*4 types of mini sweets
*Tea kettle (large selection of flavored teas)
*Lumps of sugar and milk
It was all soo delicious and I had a delightful time....I highly recommend this place!!!
*Reservations are recommended, especially on the weekends*
Had an early mums day celebration with afternoon tea today! Everything was delicious! Especially loved the Ploughman’s scone with Branston Pickle on the side! Beautiful tea room! My kids loved it- will definitely be back!
PS…. Would love to see sausage rolls added to the menu 😍
Lovely atmosphere and very nicely decorated British themed tea room. Afternoon tea was delicious and an enormous selection of teas to choose from!!
Great experience! Open 5 weeks and already busy. Went on a Wednesday and it was packed. You should definitely make reservations so you don’t miss out on this wonderful experience. Worth every penny!!! The Scones where amazing!!!
We went today! The staff is lovely and the tea selection is incredible! The environment is timeless. The cakes and tea are to die for! Highly recommend!!
We had a wonderful experience at Shelly's Tea Room. Shelly and Sean are warm and generous hosts who take great pride in making their guests comfortable. The scones, tea and baked sweet treats were fresh, plentiful and delicious. Can't wait to go back!!!!
I would recommend the Traditional Afternoon Cream Tea it was delicious. We will definitely be back.
Visited here today for a cream tea. It was delicious 😋. Shelly and Sean went out of their way to make everything enjoyable.
Thank you for such a great experience today!! I cannot wait to come back. Food was amazing. It was so nice to just sit and talk and not feel rushed. Perfect addition to the Plymouth area
We enjoyed our tea & coffee on Opening Day for Shelly’s Tea Rooms. . Try the scones & choose one of 102 different teas. We took home a slice of Carrot Cake
for later which looks delicious! Congrats to Shelly & Sean
