My friend and I had the most wonderful afternoon tea at Esme's Tea Rooms in Brockenhurst. Lovely location and beautiful decor. The sandwiches were freshly made and the cakes and scones homemade. Absolutely delicious. Very welcoming and helpful staff. We'll definitely come again. Hilary Martin.

We had a fantastic experience at Esme’s Tea Rooms! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Our server, Ella, was amazing—super friendly and incredibly helpful. She had excellent knowledge of the village and kindly gave us clear directions to our hotel, making our visit even smoother. On top of that, she made a perfect cappuccino and served us some truly delicious cake. Exceptional service and a lovely spot—we’ll definitely be back!

Visited this lovely tea room today with family and we were all very happy with the food, the service and drinks. We had afternoon tea and it was plentiful and delicious. Tasty scones, the sandwiches were freshly made and a scrumptious selection of cakes and puddings. And all presented in a very beautiful way. Really good value! I saw other people having ploughman's and other treats and it all looked amazing. The service was great too. The two waitresses were both very helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend this place and we will be back next time we are in the New Forest. (They also cater for vegetarians and I had lovely alternatives in my sandwiches.)

What a find! We had a scrumptious cheese sourdough toastie with apple and honey chutney and home-made coleslaw. Followed by cream teas. Home made fruit scones were delicious. Staff were friendly and efficient. Lovely outdoor space in the gardens, too. I think my picture says it all !! Fabulous!

Found this gem of a tearoom with a pretty exterior whilst on a short stay, so decided to try the breakfast a few days later. We arrived just before non-hotel residents were permitted, but were made to feel very welcome. There's a pretty garden, and the interior has quite a few tables and we were told to choose our own and order at the desk. Menus were available on the table. Food and drink were beautifully presented, and service was fantastic. Dishes were hot and delicious, as were the drinks. Would definitely recommend..There is also a lunch and afternoon tea menu available.
