After several Google services, I came across Dotty's website, it is well put together and really grabbed my attention Seeing Dotty's in real life was like a dream. The establishment is beautifully decorated and you can tell the owner really invested in the place and the people who work there. There is a pink bicycle parked outside, the establishment is pink, the decor is very elegant--perfect for a photo op I opt to do the afternoon tea with Prosecco added on as well as some scones to go. It was a very fair price per person. Under £80 for the entire experience for 2 people. They also sell other assorted desserts, shakes and cakes All the employees were attentive, they explained in detail what our package came with and they made sure we were happy from start to finish. EVERYTHING was delicious! From the English tea down to the Pimms jello HIGHLY RECOMMEND 10/10!!

I stumbled on the listing while doing a search for tea places before I left Washington, DC to travel to London. Unfortunately I didn't make the reservation myself (relied on family in London to make it) so we didn't get booked for the afternoon tea service as I'd hoped and just had a reserved table instead. Still, I indulged in some scones with cream and strawberry jam, paired with a strong cup of decaf English breakfast tea. The staff is very friendly and took the time to explain the drink and pastry options to us. I hope I get a chance to visit again for the full tea service before the end of my trip!

The chairs were a bit low for the tables but the table was the perfect height for my dad in his wheelchair. Service was polite and friendly, didn't have to wait for long to order.

Didn't order food but saw it arriving to other tables and it looked really nice. Will be back. *Disability accessibility comment: There is a step into the cafe which would have made wheelchair access very difficult has we wanted to sit inside although I didn't ask if they had a ramp so I'll give them benefit of the doubt there.

I ordered a coffee and a water. I'm still waiting on the water. Looked at the food menu given to me by the waiter. 10 mins later I order the salt beef sandwich. Same waiter told me they didn't have any left. Why didn't he tell me what was unavailable at the start. Then he said have another sandwich (not in a nice way). At this point I asked for the coffee to go. Obviously that was too complicated and he brought it in a porcelain cup. This place is much better on the weekend

What Banstead has been missing…read more A thoughtfully considered, independent restaurant serving excellent meals from breakfast to dinner. The food is precisely what's been lacking in Banstead. Finally there's a real option to find quality meals that will hopefully draw locals and visitors alike, away from the chain restaurants and coffee bars that have taken over the high street in recent years. I imagine other independent restaurants are going to have to up their game to compete now too - here's to healthy competition raising standards. The cute interior design, with a contemporary Art Deco twist and mellow jazz playing at an unobtrusive level in the background creates a great atmosphere. If there's any criticism to be made it's that the drinks can take a while. We've been back 2 days running already and I'm sure we'll be back again.

Without a doubt the best breakfast and pancakes I've ever had, and for a really good price, too! Where else can you can a Full Monty with extra hashbrowns, toast & tea/coffee for a fiver? I have it from friends that the Eggs Benedict & Royal are sublime as well, but every time I walk in I default to my favourite. The service here is great and prompt, and it's a great place to sit and laugh away some time alone or with friends. You'll find customers coming from all over London for the food, and more often than not the police patrol stops by & takes up a stretch of tables for themselves!

The hot chocolate was certainly worth it - it's valrohna and basically the best I've ever had that wasn't the very thick Spanish/Italian variety (twss). It was also nice and warming on a crisp day, as were the heaters and thoughtful furry chair liners and blankets in the outside seating area. I was strongly recommended the brew special but actually I think I would have preferred something like my friend had - the chorizo folded eggs i.e. with a little more kick. The brew special is a classic combo of ham, cheese and pesto which I loved years ago but now wouldn't be my first choice. Still it was well executed with beautifully cooked poached eggs on sourdough bread. Our breakfast took a long time to come but the service was otherwise notably excellent - our server was attentive, friendly and helpful consistently, meaning we had constant water top ups, updates on the food situation and were able to get the bill quickly before our parking ran out. She was great and an asset to this nice cafe.
