We had the steak guinness pie with mushy peas and the taste of Britain and would recommend it if you are missing the tastes of home. The prices are very reasonable and the service was excellent.After lunch we walked down memory lane through the museum and then bought some British bacon and baked beans to take home. Loved it!
Delicious and Delightfully Kitschy. My partner and I love this place. Every once in a while we like to go for the High Tea and to browse the British sweet shop.<br/ <br/ The Service:<br/ <br/ The waitresses are always friendly, pleasant, and attentive without hovering. But be forewarned: the atmosphere IS very casual, so one must occasionally wait to be noticed and seated, and if having your waitress spending time chatting with other customers is going to upset you, I recommend you opt for tea elsewhere. Don't be afraid to ask the staff for anything they're very kind.<br/ <br/ The Food:<br/ <br/ There is a very impressive tea menu, with a wide variety of black, green, and herbal teas. A personal favourite is the Monk's Blend. The tea is served in tea pots with cozies, with china creamers, and the table is set with china teacups and various sweeteners. I assume that if one wanted lemon or honey with their tea, they only need to ask.<br/ <br/ Beyond the tea, the food menu features a small selection of pies, scones, and other British favourites. The scone with devon cream and jam is filling, with a large, hot scone and generous amounts of cream and jam. The High Tea doesn't look like much when it arrives, but it is also definitely enough for a satisfying lunch, with a good variety of treats including sandwiches, savoury puff pastries, and petit fours.<br/ <br/ There is nothing exotic or intriguing about the food menu. I would classify it as comfort food, but it is well done comfort food.<br/ <br/ The Atmosphere:<br/ <br/ If nothing else, come for the atmosphere, which reminds me of a fun, eclectic British grandmother's place. English kitsch is everywhere and always provides something to look at. There is a museum surrounding the tearoom, with various items that would interest a fan of British history (turn of the century onwards , including an upstairs room devoted to the Titanic. <br/ <br/ There is a well stocked British sweet shop, as well as a tea shop selling the teas featured on the menu, and place to buy handmade pies and pastries. There is also a variety store with an emphasis on baking and cake decorating supplies. The entire place seems to be owned and run mainly by English expats. (I have met the owner, who is a very lovely lady. <br/ <br/ As I mentioned, the atmosphere is very casual. The patrons are mostly older folks who enjoy taking tea in small groups, but I have seen other younger couples there as well. There is often a classic tv show playing on the television at a low volume (Keeping Up Appearances was on the last time we went , so even if one dines alone there is something to look at.<br/ <br/ If nothing else, try it for the spectacular array of teas available. I haven't yet tried one I didn't like.
I love shopping at dickens! It’s always a treat to get to pick up some cool baking supplies, a fun gift for a friend, a bag of sweets for my own sweet tooth, a ginger beer and a teapot all in one run! haven’t been able to try the high tea yet, hopefully soon. I just wish they were open later they always close at 4 so I don’t get in much due to work.
I love this place its amazing when I lived in chilliwack I loved coming here and when I visit I try to come here when I can it's really great atmosphere, the food and goods are very reasonably priced and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable I always learn something new about England when I there and I always have a lot of fun, try the high tea for sure as most high teas in vancouver and stuff are like 30- 40 per person so for 13-15 person it's a steal and leaves you with money to buy pastries teas and uk sweets afterwards they also always have special high teas and meals each month so theres always something new to eat there
There. Is. So. Much. To. See. AND there's lovely dine in food service available if you fancy some high tea or classic British far. A must visit for any tourist or for those just feeling nostalgic for all things British. You definitely won't be disappointed.
