The Bay Tree Cafe - Wealden

We waited a long time for our order at the cafe, even though it was not full. We ordered paninis, which were nothing special. The cutlery was cheap and uncomfortable to use to cut into the panini. The coffee was bitter and when we tried to return it after only two sips, we were told in no uncertain terms that the owner had experience working in cafes and restaurants all over the world and knew how to make coffee. We have also had coffee all over the world and knew what we were talking about. We asked for a refund and received it without any sign of good customer service.

I ordered the vegetarian breakfast with a nice addition of spinach, while my husband had the full English breakfast that came with excellent sausages. Both dishes were delicious and cooked perfectly.

This charming and welcoming cafe offers delicious and beautifully presented food. The Mac and Cheese is particularly delicious. It also appears to be pet-friendly. I highly recommend this cafe.

Popped in for lunch and enjoyed an excellent cheese and onion toastie with chips and salad. Could not fault the food. Pot of tea lovely and hot. Although busy, still managed the order well. Definitely recommend and will return. Prices are good.

Popped in here while on a bike ride. Friendly service, good coffee, bacon sandwich and Phil Collins in the background.
