Pair your meal with a comforting Leaf Tea or a rich, freshly brewed Cafetière Coffee, both served with attention to quality and presentation.
Dedicated to sweet lovers, Mortimers offers luscious treats like their famed Lemon Drizzle Cake Slice and Wonderful Cakes, each slice bursting with moist texture and bright citrus notes or decadent chocolate undertones. The Cream Tea service, complemented by warm scones and clotted cream, is a perfect choice for a relaxed afternoon indulgence. For a savory twist, the Welsh Rarebit and the Croque Monsieur stand out with their rich cheese and robust flavors, showcasing the kitchen’s flair for elevating simple, hearty dishes.
Beyond the food, Mortimers is praised for its genuinely friendly and attentive staff who create an atmosphere that instantly feels like a second home. Customers consistently mention the warmth extended to dog owners, making it a rare and cherished spot for those who don’t want to leave their canine companions behind. Cleanliness and sensible safety measures are maintained impeccably, adding to the comfort and reassurance of every visit.

Christopher’s appreciation for the dog-friendly environment paired with great coffee and cakes perfectly captures the essence of the place, and Karl Lehmann’s enthusiastic praise of the burgers and high tea reveals the care put into every dish.
Whether you're embarking on a scenic walk through nearby Tarr Steps or simply looking for a peaceful spot to enjoy a sumptuous meal with loved ones, Mortimers offers an experience that delights the senses and warms the heart. It’s not just a cafe; it’s a welcoming haven where remarkable food meets genuine hospitality.
First visit and I enjoyed it. Dog friendly, lovely staff and the food exceeded my expectations both in taste and presentation.
Mad Hatters Tea room is open at this location serving tasty hot food including all day breakfasts and tempting cakes. Great value the breakfasts were so good we came back for more (and left with take away cake)! Highly recommended.
After a long trek at Tarr Steps how lucky to find a dog friendly cafe with great coffee , food and cake . Staff friendly and helpful. Thankyou
Cannot fault this place! The staff, food and vibe is amazing. Great customer service and so very dog friendly! I was made to feel really welcome on my couple of visits.
Absolutely delightful food, freshly prepared. Good sensible safety measures too. The burger was cracking. The salmon and herb omelette the same. and the high tea... well see the photos! Perfect.
What a little gem of a café! Service is excellent, friendly and personal. Dog-friendly. The burger is the best I have ever had, using local Exmoor-raised Dexter beef, with blue cheese & mushrooms. The Welsh-rarebit, cakes and cream teas are also superb. We’d eat here every day if we could.
