Reviews


Overall, The Spread Eagle is a fair option with okay food, service, and ambiance. While the rooms are nice, there may be a lack of atmosphere compared to other local pubs. Some guests were disappointed with the tea service for a special occasion and may not return. However, the hotel is praised for its friendly staff, clean and quirky garden rooms, and convenient location in the middle of Thame's high street. Some minor issues were noted with amenities and service, but overall it offers great value and a comfortable stay in a central location with plenty of nearby activities and dining options, generally, Afternoon Tea at The Spread Eagle receives a rating of 3.8 on average.
