Peacocks Tearoom
Cambridgeshire, Ely - Café with rooms
Don’t let the perma-queue put you off. Tea and cake or a light lunch at this pretty riverside tea room in Ely is worth the wait.

Homemade quiches, soups and sandwiches satisfy lunchtime needs, while handsome cakes are displayed on a china-filled dresser, as tea room tradition dictates.
