You'll find The Tea Set on Broadway's wide High Street, tucked among the independent shops and art galleries that line the street.
It's a welcoming spot to settle in and catch your breath while exploring the village, and both locals and visitors seem to claim it as their own.
The focus here is tea—they've got a proper range of blends from traditional to herbal—along with reliable coffees. The cakes and scones are homemade and usually still warm, arriving with real cream and jam. If you're after something more filling, they do sandwiches and soups too. There's something about sitting at one of their tables, watching Broadway's village life go by, that just works.
Broadway itself draws its character from honey-coloured stone buildings and the substantial Lygon Arms hotel, which has given the village considerable status in the Cotswolds. Whether you've just walked down from Broadway Tower with its sweeping views, or you're taking a break from the shops, sitting here with a warm drink feels like exactly the right thing to do. It's genuinely restorative, the kind of place that captures what makes Broadway worth visiting. Chipping Campden and Stow-on-the-Wold are both easily reached if you want to explore further, but The Tea Set really does capture what makes this village special.
