Hatties Tearoom

Inside Hatties Tearoom

Hatties Tearoom in Corby Glen offers a quietly welcoming spot for those who appreciate a leisurely café experience with a local touch. Situated on Market Place, it’s the kind of place where mornings often draw in families and solo visitors looking for a solid breakfast or a comforting coffee break away from the hustle. The seating arrangement and cozy atmosphere encourage lingering — whether it’s catching up over a pot of tea or enjoying a homemade slice from their carefully curated cake selection.

The café is known for serving freshly cooked breakfasts, with options like a vegetarian breakfast and a variety of sealed crustless sandwiches that reflect simple, heartfelt British café fare. Their afternoon tea offerings add a bit of indulgence to the menu, especially the full afternoon tea which suits anyone looking to treat themselves on a quiet weekend afternoon or special occasion. The fresh quality of the food is noticeable; this isn’t rushed diner fare but something prepared with a degree of care that visitors come back for.

Visitors who choose Hatties often comment on the friendly, family-run vibe, where staff take the time to ensure things feel personal, whether you’re popping in for an early coffee or gathering with friends for a slow afternoon. The café’s atmosphere manages to balance the bustling mid-morning crowd with pockets of calm later in the day, making it an adaptable spot for a range of visitors—from locals wanting a relaxed start to the day, to couples planning a casual tea, or even special events like bespoke catered parties.

For anyone cycling or riding through the Grantham area, Hatties stands out as a reliable stop with freshly prepared hot breakfasts, placing the emphasis on quality rather than speed. The straightforward pricing and variety of sandwich fillings and hot drinks cater well to those after familiar flavours with an attentive, personal touch.

I fancied a ride out on my motorcycle to get breakfast and stopped at Hatties and what a good choice it was. I ordered the large breakfast and it took a while to arrive but when it did it was clearly all freshly cooked and was piping hot. This is not fast food but it definitely is good food.

Incredible. Shaun catered for out large scale wedding and provided the most incredible afternoon tea. Service was great. His food is the freshest and most tastiest. He went above and beyond to cater for our dream wedding. We cannot speak more highly of him. All our guests said how delicious and fresh the food was. Thank you Shaun and your team we would definitely use you again

I don’t know where to begin. Wanting to find a quiet spot to eat one morning we came across Hattie’s Tearoom and I’m so glad we did. The cooked breakfast was absolutely delicious and the cake blew my mind! So much so I had to ask Shaun if he’d cater for my daughter’s 1st birthday, an incredible Alice In Wonderland themed tea party. The food was absolutely incredible, from the sandwiches to the quiche, the Alice in wonderland cupcakes and the delicious scones. The staff are so helpful and so friendly and Shaun went above and beyond to make my daughter’s tea party perfect and it was. It really was! I can’t give any more stars and actually I very rarely review but I couldn’t not, the service, the staff, the food is amazing and I’ll be utilising this for the next birthday! I can’t wait to visit again for my next breakfast and of course the Victoria Sponge :)… Thank you Shaun for helping make my little lady’s tea party a real wonderland. 5*. ( Just a few photos below from a lot taken on the day, these were some of my favourites! ).

A big thank you to Shaun and the team at Hattie’s Tearoom catering in Corby Glen for providing a special family lunch on Sunday. The food was second to none, fantastic quality and highly impressed one of our party who is a retired chef. We will definitely use their services again and would highly recommend.

Had a great impromptu lunch today at Hatties tearoom and was surprisingly busy but after having our lunch we realised why. The food was fantastic and drinks prepared really well. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning.
