Stopped here on our way home from Des Moines based on recommemndations from friends. What a treat! A lovely 'tea room' atmosphere with linens and tablecloths. Great menu of salads and sandwiches with specials daily. The the dessert menu...wow! We took 3 slices of cake home to share with friends. Wonderful staff and experience.

Great place for lunch and has a great atmosphere. Wish we would have had more time, but in the quick visit we had, our server went above and beyond to take care of us.

The service and food were excellent. The atmosphere is charming and cozy. Loved the plates they served our lunch on and it matched my mother's. Has wonderful coffee and brewed ice tea. The gift shop was unique. Our group walked away with 2 purses and 2 wallets. Will be coming back.

Very good! Both had a wrap! First time here! Pie is 10/10. I can’t believe I’ve been in Manchester for 20 years and have never been in here! Cute decor items for sale and they cater for events!

This was a very cute and comfortable place. The tables had lace table clothes with a glass topper on them. Real cloth napkins and cute mixed up china plates, bowls and cups. Little crystal salt and pepper shakers. The food was wonderful and the desserts fabulous! Kim our waitress told us that the owner was a farm lady and made all the pies herself. We had the banana white chocolate and french silk chocolate pies. Again, very fabulous! The staff were very attentive and friendly. While we were there a beautiful box of fresh ripe local tomatoes were brought in for food preparation. My husband and I will be back and I want to take my girlfriends to Manchester for lunch!

Great place. The food was very tasty. The gifts for sale were reasonably priced and not the run of the mill.
