Chef jack is busy preparing for today’s pancakes race!!! Pancakes available all day with sweet and savoury fillings followed by happy hour at 3.30, pancake and tea £3.95 for any filling!

We were greeted with a smile and made to feel very welcome. We choose sweet cream tea and savoury tea because it's the best.we have found in hampshire and tried 11 other places this year. Love the strawberry the jam full of real fruit. Congratulations to them all for winning an award last wk.

We were 4 adults plus a toddler and a baby, we arrived late morning with tea and cake in mind. James, the young man serving us was very accommodating and welcoming. We had afternoon tea between us all with lovely coffee and a large selection of tea to choose from. The sandwiches were delicious (gluten free options were available), the scones were fresh and warm on serving and of particular note was a delicious carrot and chilli pickle on the side. The selection of cakes were yummy.

I would thoroughly recommend to all and intend to return at the next available opportunity!

Thank you

We popped in today for afternoon tea and it was just delicious! We came with my 2 year old twins and from the moment we sat down they were well looked after ( their order taken straight away and food brought out quickly) Our afternoon tea was just divine, gorgeous sandwiches, cakes and scones, so much so that we couldn't manage to eat it all so had to take a doggy bag away with us! We were really impressed and will definitely be back for more!

This is a great place & the food is excellent

THE BEST scones I have ever tasted! Everything a perfect scone should be - light, buttery, fresh, warm, big! We went back for a second a couple of days after and it was just as delicious! I only wish I lived closer!

My friend and I visited yesterday and had the Royal Tea. I had the gluten free version and she had the regular one. We both agreed the food was fantastic and the cafe a lovely place for tea. We couldn't eat it all so had a box to take the cakes home. The manager was great fun and we had a good laugh with him. Will definitely be going back and can highly recommend. 😃

Had afternoon tea with my best friend and what an amazing experience. Friendly efficient service made us feel completely relaxed and the scones were out of this world! Took home a doggy bag of sandwiches as too delicious to leave behind. Will definitely be coming here again!

Had a lovely lunch with my young family here, although they were busy the staff were delightful, service was quick and the food was delicious. Nothing was too much trouble, they even allowed my 3 and 4 year old to have their water from a proper tea cup so they could enjoy the tea room experience. Will definitely visit whenever we're in Brockenhurst.

Fantastic place for a coffee, breakfast or lunch whether with friends or family - they don't even mind little kids (can't be said of all places!). My new favourite cafe in the new forest. Staff are lovely, setting is pretty and plenty of free parking, it's now been open a year and it's going from strength to strength.

Fabulous little tea room. Well worth a visit. The food was delicious with a wide variety on their menu. We had the afternoon tea and the scones were freshly baked warm straight from the oven and tasted so good top marks to the chef because they were delicious best I have ever tasted. The quality and freshness of the food was also exceptional. The staff very attentive and polite more than happy to help. We were both impressed excellent value and look forward to a return visit next time we are in the area.

Enjoyed a lovely visit to this tearoom yesterday. Delicious fresh cakes and great banter with the gentleman who served us. We will definitely be back.

An amazingly cute little tea room in the heart of the new Forrest. We had booked and table was waiting for us upon arrival. In our party we had a pregnant lady and their dietary needs were fully accommodated. The food was delicious with the best scones we have ever had. We had our cakes boxed to take home. The whole experience was wonderful will be 100% returning. Thankyou rosie lea’s Xxx

Amazing afternoon tea! Huge choice of sandwiches and cakes and the scones were the best I've had. Lovely to have a choice of tea as well. Made to feel very welcome by a great host and staff. Definitely coming back �

A lovely tea rooms very well decorated and with very smart and friendly staff. Nothing was to much trouble for them. Now the food, Saturday we went in for the breakfast excellent choices such as a full English to smoked salmon and poached eggs. We then booked for Sunday lunch and had roast lamb. One of our group had special needs again it was no problem for the staff and chef to supply us with what we wanted. We will be back and will recommend to anyone that will listen to us.

My lovely Mum who comes to Rosie's a fair bit treated me to a mini brunch (I had already had some breakfast at home) and a cup of coffee. The cafe is lovely, not too cluttered as some "vintage" places are. The staff (noticed that they were all lads) were so polite and helpful. My Mum is a good cook and likes food to be freshly cooked which it all was. Well done and congratulations on your last award, many more to come I am sure.

Really good Sunday roast and fabulous Pavlova. Lovely.

Just had lunch with a friend here. Have never been before but will probably be back. Delicious food and amazing cakes, especially the gluten free orange and almond cake. Fab to have more than one choice of cake as a Coeliac!. Iced latte lovely too.

We had what was called American stack of pancakes, he has obviously not been to America, there were small and only 3! Also very rubbery and 7 pounds!!! Rip off!!
