Jane's Enchanted Tea Garden - Cherwell

So disappointing had looked forward to afternoon tea here since finding it during lockdown. Unfortunately it never properly re opened but business sold on . Now in Ducklington, some 15 miles away, and not particularly enchanting (much of the previous appeal was the location): very odd opening hours, extremely difficult to find, parking a nightmare and all for the rip off price of £30 per head (the food was good but no way worth that cost)

Having visited this place for several years and never been disappointed went for the full afternoon tea at £20 per head. Very disappointed, greatly over priced. Have had a lot better for less money elsewhere. The sandwiches were disappointing, agree with the comment below. Enquired about taking away a small piece of cake, it was closing time and they wanted £4.50 a slice. Would not recommend the afternoon tea, stick to tea amd scones.

Came here on a Sunday afternoon. Ok it looks lovely but looks can be very deceiving! Had tea/coffee and scones it clearly states clotted cream it was definitely more like squirty cream! The coffee was watery and very weak my daughter had the coffee cake and it was stale and taste horrid. The toilets were disgusting just two porta cabins and the tap was not working so could not wash your hands. The place just felt very dirty! The staff just seem like they did not really know what they were doing . It’s a shame as this place could be amazing!

We paid for the Full Jeeves. This is £20 per person. Truthfully, I've had better for less. Janes cakes have always been superb, this year however they were not as good. The cakes were dry, as were the scones. As part of the Full Jeeves you receive 4 quarters (different fillings) of sandwiches. Two chocolate cup cakes, two strawberry butterfly cakes, and two mini cupcakes (one vanilla, one coffee), plus a savoury roll (sausage or cheese and onion for vegetarians), and a slice of quiche. This is topped with some slices of cheese, biscuits and grapes. In addition you get either a hot or cold drink. I can't honestly say that the savoury roll or quiche seemed home-made, they were very uniform and not particularly tasty. The cheese was average. There was no butter available for the biscuits or scones (though cream and jam were offered). It was disappointing. For £20 per person, I'd not recommend it. For 4 adults and two children, the total bill was £120. There was far too much cake, and what was there was not as good as we've had before. I suspect this will be our last visit. Shame, as it has always been a lovely afternoon out before.

Three generations aged from 4 to 74 years. Three birthdays to celebrate, one from each generation. Very warm welcome, high tea to make your eyes (and tummies) pop! We added bubbly for the adults!! Lovely quirky setting and we were able to relax and enjoy a lovely afternoon. A walk down the lane gave an edge to our appetites and the walk through the woods and quarry back to the village helped the huge tea settle!! To be repeated!
