Hi Sarah Thank you for your lovely review and for choosing the Posting Pot for your party. We enjoyed preparing and serving you all. Thank you
What a lovely place! We were staying at the hotel up the road and stopped by for a quick breakfast. We had a biscoff cake and a lemon/blueberry cake. Both were very delightful!!

Fabulous little cafe at the Post Office just off the village green. We'd been trying to pop in for ages and finally the day fell right (We had manged to order hot paninis for collection once in the distant past, they were delicious).
What a wonderful choice of hot drinks and treats, both sweet and savoury. We opted for regular and Earl Grey tea with plain and blueberry with lemon drizzle scones.
We will try hard to visit again for a meal, to get the full experience.
The staff were brilliant and helpful. Table service and takeaway available. Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Lots of chatter and a birthday celebration. There's a proper community feel here. I would recommend popping in just for a cuppa and a chat.
Toilet facilities for customers including baby changing. There's a slop to the facilities, but please be mindful that there is an odd step to negotiate.- Service

Visited this little cafe for lunch for the first time at the end of a 4 day hectic stay at a nearby hotel & I was not disappointed. A very warm welcome greeted me, along with an amazing tuna toastie melt. The cafe has a lovely friendly atmosphere & a good little menu at good prices. Well worth a visit.

Oh this is so lovely to hear you enjoyed your visit. We are very thankful for your amazing review and we hope to see you very soon.
Absolutely fantastic. We got cappuccinos and fruit scones with the clotted cream and jam. Everything was so flavorful and amazing. They said the scones were made that morning. Cute little cafe on the inside. Nice selection of treats and cakes but we didn't try any. The employees were the sweetest women ever and they were so welcoming and friendly. Would go daily if I lived in the area.

Just absolutely perfect!! From the lovely welcome, the friendly service, brilliant atmosphere, all homemade cakes which is very rare these days, great tea, and the loveliest Christmas cake served with cheese if you wanted it (yes I did) which I tucked into while reading my slimming magazine!!
You have something very special ladies.
Also while your visiting the cafe you should tie in an Indian Head Massage with Zoe above The Posting Pot at Enliven Therapies.- Service

I visited yesterday on a recommendation and was pleased with the friendly welcome I got from the staff. I sat outside in the back patio it was so peaceful just listening to the birds. My coffee and scone was wonderful. Will definitely be going back and would highly recommend.

Thank you so much Janet for giving us this lovely review. We are very proud of our beautiful garden. We are pleased you enjoyed your visit and see you again soon. 😊
Holidaying in Wetheral, tried the Posting Pot for lunch. Lovely food (club sandwich so tasty and salmon bagel great). Everything tasted fresh and the accompaniments of crisp, coleslaw and salad were very welcome. No room for cake though after quite large portions😁. Staff very friendly and as it was a nice day we were able to sit outside. Would recommend. Hope to return.

Hello Sandra, Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review. We really appreciate your kind words. Thank you
Simply one of best cafe menus I’ve ever seen such range and quality. The food was superb something I would see in a classy restaurant and the staff were so friendly. Nothing but excellent all round, great value for money and cosy interior decor. Had to leave a tip, this review and will be back with more friends and family in the future!

Thank you for taking the time to recommend us. We really do appreciate it. We are very proud of our new Ice cream Parlour. Thanks again
Delicious food and wonderful atmosphere. The staff are friendly and attentive. The food was homemade and fresh and there was a good range of choice. Im vegetarian and had a mushroom and cheese tart with cheese sauce which was delicious. The coffee was great, and they have a selection of teas and other drinks. They were also very kind to my dog and gave her a water bowl. Highly recommend.
