We had afternoon tea which was lovely, one sweet and the other savoury. The only thing was that we were only 2 but could have done with having 2 tables due to the various items that were on the single table. Despite that the overall experience was really good, service and selection of food.

Me and my grandma had a joint party here for our 18th and 70th birthday party and it was amazing. The followed all our requests and the room was decorated perfectly. All our guests enjoyed it very much. Thank you for making our event one to remember.

The table was laid out beautifully for afternoon tea to celebrate my husband's birthday. The many sandwiches, savouries and cakes were delicious. There was plenty of tea, coffee and hot water available along with drinking water. The service was great from all the lovely staff making our celebration really special. We will certainly be having other delights at Renishaw Hall and Gardens Cafe.

This is a difficult one because of what happened after the tea. It was booked as a treat for a friend who is going through a rough patch, one regular one vegan afternoon tea menu. The tablets was beautifully decorated yet my china cup had a long crack on the in and outer side, which was changed at my request. The vegan tiered food came with a good scattering of savoury, fruits and sweets. Mine was extremely disappointing, all savory apart from the sweet scone, jam and clotted cream. I had been anticipating and expecting some interesting cakes. My companion was satisfied with her food although she felt the bread was a bit thick. We were the only ones in a very large room off the main café which is possibly why we felt forgotten. We didn't get the service we expected but had to rely on catching a member of staff as they walked past into another part of the building. I had to ask for sugar, I had to ask for more hot water, I had to walk and find someone for a takeaway box. At the end I waited around expecting to be asked how everything was, but no one approached us. At this point I am feeling very, very disappointed especially compared with previous visits. We both said we would prefer standards had been maintained and prices increased if that is the issue here. But then I went in the shop and the lady behind the counter asked how we enjoyed our afternoon tea. So I told her - and she immediately said that wasn't good enough and rang someone, who came down to see us, apologised and offered me a refund. I declined and instead asked if I could have some cakes to take home, which she duly conjured up along with an array of berries. Mistakes happen and if you judge a business on how good they are on resolving them, then they get 5 stars.

We were ignored on entering the cafe, a lack of a warm welcome. We had booked for the cafe but there was confusion as to whether that booking needed to be checked. We thought that a booking reserved a table but we were told just to find one ourselves. We found a table outside which had not been cleared and after a few minutes waiting for someone to do this, my husband cleared it himself and took the tray into the cafe, handing it to one of 3 waitresses who were in a group chit chatting not doing much. Food was good but we had to watch other people self clearing tables in order to use them. Staff need to be sharper in clearing tables down. It was a let down. Customer service was a bit below par which was a shame because the rest. Of our visit and house tour was lovely.
