A lovely little timber-clad cafe with ramped access and inside / outside seating. Hot meals such as Welsh Rarebit and very nice made-to-order sandwiches too. For dessert there are some amazing cakes, sundaes or even milkshakes. The afternoon teas also looked fantastic. The coffee is also really good, although bizarrely the large ones come in an extremely hot mug with no handle!? We had to ask for a small cup to pour them into as there was no way we were touching that cup! Friendly for little people and an accessible WC there too. All in a nice bite to eat!

Lovely open atmosphere with affordable prices. The hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows is quite tasty. I love the vegetarian breakfast and my mates loved the bunny’s breakfast: the mushrooms and halloumi are especially tasty. Staff are incredibly sweet - they offered our puppy special dog treats too! Would definitely recommend especially if the weather is good!

Nice little cafe with good food. Lost a star as they forgot 2 of the 4 drinks we ordered, and 1 of the 4 meals.. Long wait for the food and then an even longer wait for the meal they forgot...

Oh wow! I'm gluten free so messaged prior to booking to be reassured there were plenty of options. Tasty soup served with a sandwich. They had a chocolate & hazelnut cake too. I was too full up so I took a slice of go Service was a bit slow but was so worth it. Great experience set in lovely grounds

What a gem of a find!!! In the heart of quex park we had the best cake and scones we have had in a long time. And friendly service . This will be our new treat place not badly priced either.

We went for a cream tea experience, the vegan cream tea lacks on more savoury, the cucumber rolls didn't have any butter, it was a bit plain! and lots of cakes!! The scones were very nice, but they don't serve vegan cream, we had to take our own, ! Poor service as not enough stuff to cope with the demand of a beautiful day!

With the weather being so glorious, a spot of afternoon tea outdoors was in order. We took a trip to Felicity's Cafe at Quex Park. After performing the, what has become normal, NHS track and trace scanning we were walked over to a table situated perfectly in the sun. We were offered a choice of tea or coffee and told the food would be out shortly. Within a few minutes we had a stack of savoury and sweet treats presented to us. On the lowest tier were 4 sandwiches: salmon and cream cheese, chicken and tarragon, cheese and tomato (amazingly tasted like pizza) and finally egg mayonnaise. On the next tier we had a scotch quails egg, caramelised onion quiche and piccalilli. Finally, the top tier included a chocolate brownie, red velvet, bakewell and carrot cake topped off with a few strawberries. We've had many afternoon teas over the years, it's always great to experience the same sort of meal with differing menus or twists. In this case, there were several elements on offer that wouldn't have been my choice. However, the empty plates at the end speak volumes. The food was great! The cheese and tomato 'pizza' sandwich was amazing. The salmon sandwich fantastic. The scones crumbly, with lashings of clotted cream and a blob a jam. The red velvet light and fluffy with icing that was sweet and creamy. It was the perfect amount of food that left us just to the comfy side of stuffed. Service was great. We were offered refills of tea several times and didn't have to wait long should we require anything else. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. Feeling secluded from the rest of the world and all its chaos, it was a satisfying and peaceful way to let time tick by. If you're looking for a good quality afternoon tea in a relaxing setting, give Felicity's Cafe a try.
