Mad Hatters Cupcakes &tea Room

What a perfect tearoom. A warm and friendly atmosphere is created by the two lovely ladies who run this cafe. Great quality homemade food is guaranteed. The prices are the best in the area. I often nip in for my breakfast when I have coffee with poached eggs on toast the coffee is always good and the poached eggs are always perfectly cooked.

I initially enquired about taking my parents out for Mother’s Day via Facebook. Within minutes my question had been responded to despite it being outside of opening hours. The following day Claire got in contact again to confirm availability of their Mother’s Day special menu the day before they were planning on serving it. This fit brilliantly with our travel plans as my wife and I do not live locally but my parents do. The whole process of booking was very easy and nothing was ever too much trouble. Upon arrival we were not disappointed. Our table was reserved and very clean. The chilli chicken soup was superb with an alternative of tomato soup if needed. Then came the afternoon tea itself! Wow! Just wow! The tea was served on portable wooden shelves which were delivered to the table and really made the food stand out against the dark wood. A mixture of warm miniature savouries alongside freshly made sandwiches really filled us up. So much so that we took away 2 boxes of cakes and desserts which kept us fed well into the next day. Such a fantastic business doing things professionally with excellent food quality. Thanks to Claire and the team for responding to my initial enquiry. I know my mum had a great time and will be spreading the word with friends in Blackburn!

Beautiful bacon and egg sandwich on granary bread for me, and bacon and sausage on granary bread for hubby . Both delicious, and a proper brew. Lovely cafe and very friendly staff, will certainly go again when next in Blackburn

Wanted to find somewhere for lunch on a visit to Blackburn and we are so glad we found this place. Lovely staff, excellent food, very reasonable and catered for Gluten Free. We don't often visit Blackburn but next time we do we will definitely be returning here for lunch.

We visited today and had a lovely experience. The room is quite small and easy to chat to people on other tables. Everyone is so friendly. I ordered the egg mayo sandwich and my daughter had the children's ham and cheese melt. I also ordered the house blend coffee which came in a cafetiere and was very nice. The egg mayo came on a lovely thick white bread and the consistency of egg to mayo was perfect. My daughters sandwich looked very good too and well presented. Note that the children's comes with crisps which I had to hide some until she'd had some of her toastie haha. There's also plenty of cupcakes for afterwards which we took some home. I was also very impressed with the price of everything. We have visited more expensive places that have been nowhere near as good.
