Good morning Daisy and Mariella!

I will have a mince pie too please but with a coffee. We won't want to move away from the fire Daisy

[Daisy]

That was soo relaxing, wasn't it, Gem!

Morning Mariella
Oh I’m in the mood for Bacon and Sausage in a Bagel , a nice pot of English to go with it
It’s so warm in here I may stay by the fire for a while 😁

[Gemini]

Good afternoon Mariella.

A large black coffee and a slice of Yule Log please.
I will grab that comfy seat by the fire!

[Daisy]

Good morning, Mariella. I think I'm your first customer today, but I see the fire's already throwing out lots of heat.

It's still icy cold, so I think I'll have a bowl of porridge with a bowl of fresh fruit, toast and marmalade and a pot of coffee. I'll make myself comfy by the fire.

[Gemini]

I missed you Daisy!

I will have Earl Grey please Mariella and some of your Christmas shortbread.

[Oma]

Good morning Mariella

Nice to see the snow has melted and the pond isn’t frozen now ,
Could I get Pot of English and a toasted tea cake please ,

Not long for Santa , I’ve added a couple of Gifts to your charity box in the conservatory.

Hi Oma, can I join you by the fire? Mariell, I would like an Americano coffee with warm milk and a Danish pastry please. That fire feels very welcoming. I am going to feed the ducks after I have had my coffee, they must be very hungry.

[Daisy]

Good morning, Mariella. I think everyone must be out shopping this morning - everywhere seems busy.

I've just got time for a very quick coffee and a slice of that yummy Yule log, please.

It's nice to see the charity box filling up with gifts - sorry mine aren't very well wrapped, though.

[Oma]

Morning Mariella
Its busy out already ,
Im doing nothing today so I think I will treat myself to Bacon in a bagel, a pot of English but firstly a lovely bowl of fresh fruit salad .
I can take my time this morning so I will sit by the window and watch the hustle and bustle 😀

[Gemini]

Good morning Oma

Warm cosy and peaceful in here with the Christmas carols quietly playing in the background.

Coffee please Mariella. I will have fresh fruit salad as well, followed by a selection of your irresistible mini pastries.

[Daisy]

Good morning, Oma and Gem! Is it ok if I join you both?

I'll have a pot of tea and a bowl of Mariella's warming porridge with honey, please.

[Daisy]

Good Christmas Eve morning, Mariella and all our Tea Room regulars. Everyone is welcome to come and join us for fantasy food and drinks - it's all free and calorie-free, and very Christmassy today.

I'm going to sit by the window where I can see the green and the duck pond and people passing by to do their last minute shopping.

I'll have a pot of coffee and a croissant with raspberry jam, please. I can't say no to a box of home-made mince pies to take home, either.

[Gemini]

Good morning Daisy


I will have exactly the same as Daisy please Mariella!


We are so grateful to Mariella and her helpers who between them will keep the Tea Rooms open through the season.

These two look a little loved up though, I hope they don't muddle all the orders!
