The warmest welcome in Okehampton - what a treat to stumble upon this little gem. Dog friendly too! Cheese scones are highly recommended!!

We had rejected a sequence of not very interesting looking cafes for lunch and it was a very pleasant surprise to find this one. Good food and service in an interesting building, and very reasonable prices.

I’m currently staying a few days in Devon. I was checking out Okehampton town centre, discovered The Victorian Pantry by the Museum of Dartmoor Life and decided to pop in to get some food. It’s a lovely and quaint place (in the sweetest way possible!) and the owner was very warm and friendly. The food was great quality and value. I got myself an extra slice of coffee and walnut cake for the evening at my hotel, because it was really tasty! A really nice experience on my travels. ?

We stumbled across this gem whilst on our way back home. Food was outstanding with the most perfect scones and delicious roast beef. I highly recommend this to anyone.

Wonderful little discovery on the edge of town. The cobblestone pathway was so quaint and old fashioned, it perfectly suits the inside of the little tea room, which contains an eclectic range of teapots. The good weather meant that the seats outside were all taken, but the staff were so kind and moved us outside once a table was free. My mother had the boiled egg tea and I had the Afternoon tea which were both delicious! The range of cakes was hard to chose from as they all looked wonderful as well. Will definitely come back here one day.

Lovely cup of tea enjoyed with a fresh, warm cheese scone. Friendly staff. Seems popular with locals.

Delicious Clotted Cream Tea. It was great to endulge in a traditional clotted cream tea. Fantastic portions, moist and light scones, a nice supply of clotted cream and fresh strawberry preserve. Great service, friendly and helpful staff. Nothing has changed since my last visit in March 2017. Always a pleasure to revisit.

We have eaten here a number times over the years. It is a small place, run by friendly people. Today we had jacket potato with generous helping of prawns, fresh salad (£7.50) and a tasty breakfast - sausage, bacon, egg, mushrooms, baked beans and fried potato, with toast (£9). Definitely recommend for simple, tasty meals.
lovely tearoom, delicious food, very friendly staff!

Tucked away very close to the Dartmoor Life Museum mrs foodie located this little gem. We noticed a fair few locals who were obviously repeat visitors which is always a good sign. Whilst main meals and hot snacks are available i struggle to not choose a cream tea. Well pleased that i did. Proper jam and cream , lovely homeade scones and a cracking cup of tea. Now which goes first in Devon the jam or the cream....

Had lunch here today. Excellent vegetable soup (there was also a chicken & veg soup too) with granary bread & proper butter, followed by an equally excellent Devon Cream Tea, with lashings of cream & jam & pot of tea. It’s a tiny, charming & rather quirky place full of locals highly recommend it. Great food, great service & great prices!Vegetarian options: One of the two soups-of-the-day was veggie & delicious. Not a huge amount of veggie options, but enough if you eat eggs & cheese.

A little gem in a tucked away place....be sure you look for it. It is in the museum courtyard. Excellent meals, fair prices & service always with a smile! Going again tomorrow for an amazing fresh baked scone with jam & cream & a cup of lovely tea.

Warm scones with English tea after a long ride. Couldn’t be better!
