Claris's Tea Room & Gift Shop
1-3 High Street, Biddenden, TN27 8AL
Conveniently located within an hour's drive from Canterbury, Dover and Channel Tunnel and set in the charming Wealden countryside is this famous tea room and gift shop. Ever since Brian and Janet took over the operations in nineteen eighty four, it has won many awards and a steady fan following. The half timbered low ceiling tea room provides a beautiful setting for morning coffees, light lunches or afternoon teas. Among the cakes try the almond slice, lemon Madeira or fruit cake. There's also meringue filled with fresh cream and hot bread pudding. A variety of sandwiches including cheese with ham, prawn or tuna present themselves on the menu. For something heavier, the Ploughman's lunch stands up to be counted.Conveniently located within an hour's drive from Canterbury, Dover and Channel Tunnel and set in the charming Wealden countryside is this famous tea room and gift shop.

REVIEWS OF Claris's Tea Room & Gift Shop
Local (23 September 2008)
We found Claris's to be the quintessential English tea room and noticed it has been winner of the Tea Guild award for many years running. The menu offered delicious homemade cakes and cream teas, lunches, ices and excellent tea and coffee and we found it to be very reasonably priced. The members of staff were welcoming and polite and there was a cosy atmosphere. The gift shop had a wide range of beautiful China and pottery as well as gifts, cards and toys. We would visit again.
