About This Pub
Oh, Tiffin Teahouse – it's such a hidden gem in West Bridgford, isn't it? From what I've gathered from chats with others who've popped in, the place really shines with its fresh, home-baked cakes and that classic afternoon tea spread that's just spot on for a proper British treat. The staff are an absolute delight, always cheerful and ready to make adjustments for dietary preferences, which makes it feel like a welcoming home away from home. It's got this nostalgic charm that takes you back to simpler times, with a relaxed atmosphere perfect for catching up over a pot of tea. On the downside, it wraps up early at 4pm, so it's more suited to lunch or afternoon plans rather than an evening out, and if you're in the mood for something stronger than tea, you might find it a bit limited. All in all, though, it's a solid choice for a laid-back day; just pop in with your mates for a bite and a natter, and you'll likely leave with a smile.

Cons
-
It closes early at 4pm, so it's not the spot for evening plans or a late-night unwind.
-
As a teahouse, it's focused on teas and coffees with no alcoholic options, which might disappoint if you're after a pint or a cocktail.
-
While they try their best with dietary restrictions, they can't guarantee accommodating every need, so it's wise to chat about it upfront to avoid any hiccups.

We are new to the area and could not have asked for a better local cafe. We were served by Mia and she was friendly and accommodating:) The afternoon tea was priced well, filling and delicious. Will definitely be back soon.
We came here with our two kids on the morning my partner was expecting our our third.
We got a milkshake and bit of cake each and it was delicious! Was huge (kids couldn't finish their milkshakes!) and was clearly freshly made.
Heard great things about their afternoon tea so plan to visit in the future for that!
I met a friend here recently and we had lunch.
Food is nice and service was good too. Pleasant polite staff and a nice atmosphere
Groups of friends meeting for lunch, tea and cake.
I have been to Tiffins many times, for brunch and afternoon tea. The food and service is always great. On Sunday we had a birthday celebration with 13 of us having afternoon tea. The afternoon tea was brilliant and they made sure that all dietary requirements and allergies were catered for very well. We look forward to lots more visits soon!
Came here for afternoon tea to celebrate my sister's birthday.
Had a really lovely time. The food was lovely.
The decorations were set for Christmas and they looked lovely. It was a really quaint little place.
We were able to choose the sandwiches we wanted to share. The scones were still warm and extremely delicious. And there were 8 little cakes between the 2 of us.
We will definitely be going back again.
I love afternoon tea.
