Interesting building which had been a Chapel and a school. Set out as a tearoom, with bright tablecloths and pretty silk flower vases on each table.There was a good variety of cakes on offer, plenty of tea in the pot for two and extra hot water provided. My personal choice was a minestrone cup a soup. What a good idea to have that on the menu, not everyone fancies a sweet afternoon treat.Round the walls of the room were craft stalls with some really lovely handmade items ranging from greetings cards to glasswork.Looked to be a good stop for walkers and ramblers to stop off for a quick break.

If you're out exploring the walks around here, then don't forget to pop in to the visitor centre and cafe. There are pictures of how it looked with all the lead mines in operation many years ago, and info about the surrounding wildlife and geology. We stopped for refreshments after the 3.6 miles loop walk along the Stiperstones ridge, but if you have no drinks with you then I'd recommend stocking up before you head out walking.

Very pleasant visitor centre showing history of forner mining in the area. The tea rooms have excellent home made cakes and locally made craft items are on sale. Worth a visit but note it is closed from November to March inclusive.

Lovely cafe, great stop for afternoon tea and very dog friendly. Excellent chatty staff made me feel very welcome and some beautiful quality local craft gifts available to buy. Sad not open all year round, so check dates and times.

A very good place for a stop after a walk around the Stiperstones area. Good cakes and scones with tea/coffee/hot chocolate on offer. A selection of local arts and crafts to browse through and an interesting range of books about the locality. It also contains a range of parish records for those who might have had family members from this area.

Great for tea and cake. Main carpark is less than 100m west. Friendly staff, interesting crafts and displays. If you are planning to hike up the Stiperstones, please wear good boots as the path is very uneven and rocky.

A pleasant place to visit, friendly service in the cafe and interesting things to see. Plenty of parking. When else can you go to the Bog and tell all your friends?!
