This place is all shinny and new. Had a lovely makeover. Very trendy yet old school, with its fine traditional china and high teas. It's now attached to a cool giftshop We had a couple of awesome cakes and proper loose tea with a strainer. In the heart of Grasmere so you can fuel up pre or post walk! give it a go for sure..

during the past 5yrs we visited baldreys many times with both family and friends whilst on holiday in the area. Previously the premises seemed to be consistently above average in both food served always adding a little twist in the taste the chefs effort very apparent and waiting staff always polite and interested overall well worth a visit and confident to be recommended. Sadly on our last visit on Monday 9th march we ordered a humble jacket potato with a topping,unfortunately the potato was raw in places. However we persevered to complete our lunch. Regretfully when one of the waiting staff ( a woman with brown curly hair) came to clear the table we politely mentioned the poor quality of our meal. Quite frankly her attitude resembled "i couldn't give a toss" I doubt this is the response i trust that baldreys management expects judging from the facade. We were certainly shocked. Surely this is the quickest way to lose custom. I hope baldreys isn't in decline, as basic training is needed here. Not one person acknowledged our complaint but were very efficient in taking our money never the less

This little tea room is quaint, old, and very welcoming. The food is home made, the service is relaxed, the furniture old and the atmosphere warm, especially after a wet rainy day in the lakes. There's a big collection of teas, the rarebit is delicious as are the cakes and it's been there for years!
