Julia's Tea Room - Piatti

We enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea in a traditional atmosphere in a lovely setting. Everything was home made and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We did not feel rushed and were offered a container to take home any uneaten cakes! We will be back and next time will plan to visit the photographic museum.

The best description that comes to mind are the lyrics from a 60 's song, a cup of cold coffee and piece of cake After a 15 minute wait (on a not very busy mid morning) I 'm afraid the two coffees ordered were barely lukewarm and had obviously been standing and the cake was tasteless. Instead of lingering over what was hoped to be a nice treat in beautiful surroundings we left the coffees (but ate the cake).

We always visit this place when on the Isle of Wight as it is so lovey and full of character, its how things used to be, warm, friendly and old fashioned in a very good way, the food is very good with plenty to choose from and the staff are so welcoming and friendly, they cater for children and are dog friendly, give it a visit if you are near as its worth it !!!!...and the prices you wont find better, thank you all ...see you again soon....

So many good things to say about Dimbola tea rooms. We’ve been a few times and the service and food continue to be great. It was busy today yet the staff are cheery, polite and friendly and the orders are not delayed coming out of the kitchen. Great selection of eats, drinks and treats at reasonable prices our family lunch cost £36. If there had been less than 1000 wasps, we’d have eaten outside with the lovely view and live music but inside nice too!

Delightful tea rooms friendly welcome by the staff able to take our lovely border collie in with us and she was treated to biscuits. So the afternoon tea was lovely scone really nice so fresh and tasty also some lovely food and cakes on offer. As not quite hungry enough for anything else at that time we decided to ask for takeaway and they made us up fresh sandwiches to take away. I’d recommend a visit here and will be returning on our next visit to the Isle of Wight.

Delicious quiche and crab sandwiches. Remarkable range of cakes. I know from previous experience that there are always vegetarian and vegan options and these are also delciious. Service is really attentive and accommodating (we requested a different table from that reserved for us). Currently open to 4pm. In previous years, they would open until 5, which was great for those of us who like afternoon tea at 4. Let's hope this generates lots of extra custom so they can consider longer opening.

We booked for the roast dinner which is only available in certain months and very popular. Everything is done to a turn. The staff always manage to have a brief word in addition to taking your order. Even while busy serving lunches, the team manages to look after takeaway customers and do their best to find room for those who have not booked for the roasts. Soup and sandwiches, along with the always amzing cakes, were on offer for the walk-ins. The vegetarian option needs to be ordered in advance and is delicious.

We booked in advance as we knew the tearoom would be especially busy because of a craft fair. The staff served us pretty quickly and the quiche was delicious. A truly remarkable array of cakes was on offer: the ginger and orange cake was one of the more unusual festive options. I emailed a thank you after our meal and was impressed to receive a response within less than a day. Even though the staff had to move fast they managed a brief conversation with all customers and organised things for walk ins as well as reserved customers. A class act.

Christmas lunch at Dimbola is a very special event if you’re lucky enough to get a table GO. Traditional lunch turkey gammon piled high with a fabulous selection of vegetables, lashings of gravy, with an option for the vegetarian option cooked with understanding love care and attention to detail, washed down with IOW beers and Prosecco. Then an extensive choice of home made puddings, the Christmas pudding chosen was light full of flavour with a brandy sauce that had a walloping amount of booze so creamy we could have licked our bowls Absolutely outstanding well done everyone who looked after us so beautifully done what a team Visualizza piatti
