“ I love this place.Best cooked breakfast in the area.1 drawback is no blackpudding.Coffee is good.Its small,welcoming and on a sunny day ,to sit outside on the pavement with the view across the square is....heaven. ”

“ What a delightful place! Excellent service, super yummy food and very friendly staff. I had the mushroom/cheese baguette. It just melted in my mouth. This place also serves the best scones in Somerset. Hats off to the chef!! They have a lovely outdoor patio area as well, which we enjoyed in the sun. Thanks Buttercross! ”

“ Flippin' brilliant!! In spite of the naysayers a group of 6 of us decended on this joyous place for cream teas, and they couldn't have been more obliging, our group arrived in 2 waves but they were very patient while we all arrived. 6 cream teas were duly ordered, 3 regular and 3 gluten free, each accompanied by lashings of jam, cream and piping hot tea!! Now, the staff.......We were greeted and welcomed very warmly by a couple of young ladies, our order was taken and duly arrived, nothing seemed too much trouble, the whole thing was a joy from start to finish, and very reasonably priced to boot!! We will be going back, that's for sure, places like this are so very hard to find, and this one is a complete gem!! Many thanks to all the staff, we adore what you do, keep it up!! ”

- Richard Harris -

“ Stopped in for a delicious cream tea, the staff were wonderful. Definitely recommended. ”

- Jon Hobday -

“ Lovely place to have lunch or afternoon tea in our case. Great staff and owner, beautiful setting and great food. Well with a visit. ”

- Chris Watts -

“ Very pleasant site in the middle of Somerton opposite the old market cross (or whatever it's called) Lovely staff, prompt, efficient and friendly. I would've liked raspberry jam with my tea-cakes, but there was only strawberry. A good choice of teas and I chose Assam. An extra tea-bag was willingly added to the pot as I like my tea very strong. Wife had oak milk for her coffee for which she was grateful. Lovely spot - quiet (surprisingly!) and with the spontaneity of the moment, our visit really made the afternoon special. A few independent shops were a great surprise, which were pleased to support, although we were a little saddened to see the demise of the Antique centre. Definitely recommended - do stop off there for an hour. ”
