Reviews in Purley

Had our regular table for breakfast and as always the food and service were very good. I always recommend the Lord Roberts.

The service is always very slow here whenever we come, but if you expect that it’s not too annoying . The servers are always polite though The strawberry mocktails were delicious We had a really nice table outside in the shade. Highly recommend the quiche - delicious with good salad on the side too

I have been quite often for a tea or coffee and it has been a very pleasant place. This time the cakes we had were very dry and although we mentioned this to staff, no-one came back to apologise/explain. Our order for more tea took a long time and we had to remind the staff. It was not busy. More attention could have been paid to our table in the garden eg we had to put up the umbrella ourselves and we were not offered cushions, which were piled high in the corner. The staff were very pleasant however - just a bit more training is needed.

Food stunning, setting lovely, atmosphere stressful and service .. staff attentive but service slow and disorganised ( maybe due to new staff) Owner was barking orders loudly. Not a calming environment. But food great

HIGHLY RECCOMENDED. The place is beautiful, full of colour and with a fantastic garden. Attention was fantastic and the food was amazing as well. Me and my wife went for our monthly breakfast out without our babies and it was worth it. Banana cake was really nice. Would go back at least once a week if I could.

I have the full English breakfast and scones whenever I come and I am never disappointed. The food is amazing and my housemates feel the same way which is why we keep coming back and will do in the future, and will also recommend. I recommend you book in advance to avoid disappointment.

Booked a table for last Saturday lunchtime. Staff seemed unaware of the booking when my son arrived, but we found a table fine. Was unsure if we had a table service as nobody came. Sorted our own orders ourselves. Food was of excellent quality. I didn’t know about the Temperance thing and no alcohol! My 19 year old grandson was a bit disappointed. The garden needs some serious attention. I was tempted to start weeding! We ended up having a discussion about what temperance was.

Excellent service and great food- menu selection is really good! Atmosphere is lovely and the outdoor seating is great too! Definitely my go to place locally

A lovely place , good choice of food. A warm welcome. I would go back. It was an extremely hot day and I think waiting staff were feeling it- forgotten items on order and had to seek them out when adding to order. Otherwise good and no pressure to relinquish table.

5 star!

The food was amazing and customer service was equally as great! Thank you!

Lovely garden and service. I had a jacket potato with tuna which was fine but a bit dry.

Fresh Salad. Great atmosphere and service.

Very disappointed with our visit this time. Menu changed without much choice and worst of all we were asked to move from our table when we were still eating as preparation for a special event was beginning. We would have finished our meal in plenty of time if we had been served shortly after our arrival (which had been booked) but after sitting at our table for approximately minutes I had to ask someone to please take our order.

Helpful and polite staff. Good range of options on the lunch menu. Food was delicious. I'm a regular customer and will return.

Delicious , tasty and beautifully presented food as usual, alongside attentive service. Great place!

Delicious food, great service and nice atmosphere. We had reserved a table for 3 but our table was being used. We were asked to share a large table with 5 others, but we chose to sit at a table for 2 instead. We were disappointed that our booking in advance had not benefitted us .

What a lovely place. The staff are very friendly and attentive. We had really good service. We ate outside in the sunshine - lots of seating. Later went inside when it got colder. Inside is so restful and calming. Beautiful decor. Great lunch time menu. We had salads amd and a panini. All delicious.
