The Home Front Tea Room - Ramsgate

My friend and I discovered the charming home front caffe by chance and were thrilled by him. Not only is the decoration inspired by wartimes Britain, it actually contains many original articles from time, including packages and doses. the menu also offers food from the same time, some of them, like tinted patches and spam sandwiches, rare on café menus today. the staff are helpful, friendly and efficient and service is good. if they are worth visiting in the opposite.

Lovely tea rooms with fantastic authentic decor. Staff friendly. Loads to look at!

A big surprise!! I was in Ramsgate and was gasping for a cuppa. Saw a sign for tea rooms and rushed in. It was like I had just walked out of the Tardis into the 1930s. Wonderful attention to details for a war time themed tea room. The owners had lovingly thought out and sourced many items from this time period. I had a cheese and pickle sandwich, scone and a pot of tea all for £10.95. Absolutely delighted to receive real tea in a china pot with a hand knitted tea cosy on it. It came with a tea strainer and was loose leaf tea. Milk in a glass jug and sugar in an antique glass jar. The cheese and pickle sandwich was freshly made and came with a generous side of salad and crisps. I also ordered a home made fruit scone which was delicious (thinking the sandwich wasn 't enough, my mistake). The menu was authentic to the time period with spam sandwiches which I thought was hilarious. More importantly all the food is home made from scratch. In every pot with the sauce sachets was a little pair of scissors to snip the end of the sachets, a very nice touch! Staff were very attentive and made me feel welcome. I ate my food and watched an old bakelite tv in the corner. The whole thing reminded me of visiting my nan on Sunday afternoons. Heartily reccomend and well done to the owners!!!!!

Lovely cosy atmosphere. Food was good and the staff friendly. I will definitely visit again. Nice touches like: old TV playing black and white programmes, war time music playing, alot of attention to decor and even a handy pair of scissors to help with pesky sachets!

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and very welcome pot of tea for one with toasted fruit loaf
