Everything has been beautifully restored. The perfect place for traditional cream tea. The scones - as well as all the cakes on offer - are home made. Tea is served in china pots (rather than those horrible metal ones that never pour properly) and just perfect, even though they use teabags rather than leaves. The perfect place to forget about the credit crunch, global warming and impending recession for an hour or so.

It is large and spacious with a good selection of comfortable sofas, tables and stools, friendly staff and a good atmosphere. There is a large outdoor seating area, ideal for sipping one of the many cold drinks on offer during the warmer weather. The shop is a BT wireless Openzone, making it a great place to wile away the hours, tucked up in a corner with a steaming hot chocolate, surfing the internet and watching the world go by.

Just a short walk from the Bekonscot Model Village is this gem! For lunch, I ordered the sirloin…read moresteak sandwich that comes with mustard, but I requested mayo. No problem. The carmelized onions were sooo sweet, and the brioche bread was fresh from the oven. The french fries were tiny, thin, and crispy, unusual for the U.K. and delicious. My companions had the chicken club and they too raved about the taste. The restaurant was lovely inside and out, and the staff very pleasant. The desserts in the bakery part looked wonderful, but I was pleasantly stuffed. Next time!

The noise was ridiculously loud with staff literally thumping the counter every so often with his coffee measure .My friend ordered cold milk and it arrives hot then was told rather abruptly she hadn't ordered it .

Lovely area and normally you can park fairly nearby. Food is excellent and just had a revamp so now even more space. I like the breakfasts and coffee is far better than a Starbucks/Costa Coffee brigade (and I do like them too..) Staff invariably friendly and really nice - service is terrific. Highly recommended.

Well i certainly was not expecting that! We decided to eat here as it was close to where we were…read moregoing and assumed it would be a filled croissant at best. The food is far far better than you expect and i have not stopped thinking about the eggs benedict since we left there yesterday. I am very fussy when i eat out but i have to say this ticked all of my boxes. If i had to throw a slight negative in all i can think of is that i let out a small gasp when i looked at the prices in the menu. However, I would pay it every day!

I had high expectations of Benedict's Store, after great recommendations from friends and family…read more It has all the ingredients for a surefire hit: quirky retro design, great location and prospect of great coffee and food. However, in short I was a little disappointed with the overall experience.The air con was too high and made the place quite chilly. The Monmouth coffee was great, but the food left a lot to be desired. The selection is narrow and my cheese and bacon quiche was lukewarm at the top and cold at the bottom, the pastry a bit soggy and it could have been tastier. The same can be said of the salad: a bit insipid with far too much fruit in it and tasteless tomatoes. If I return I will get a toasted sandwich. The Portuguese pastéi de nata was the saving grace however, completely delicious and I could have easily gone for another. The well stocked shelves of select produce and homeware items were appealing and I want to give this place another chance to impress.

Since the pharmacy in town was already closed, my host volunteered the local Sainsbury as the stop on our way back from the pub. Sainsbury is the equivalent of a Safeway here in the states. They are a local chain serving the suburban families out away from the hustle and bustle of London. I found the allergy medicine that I required in addition to a fabulous type of toothpaste called Cordosyl (3 pounds each). Checkout was perfect since they had self-service instated. The parking lot here is large and clean and it is only a short jaunt away from the row of shops along the street. Thank you, Sainsburys!

Service was hit and miss dependent on who came over and the decor was a random mixture of very well chosen tables, chairs and pictures to plain old white and just strange images.
