Meet The Team
TIM AND MANDY
From a seed of an idea early 2013, to set up a local cafe as a social enterprise promoting shop local values, community engagement and routes to employment, Mandy and Tim opened Priscilla’s Tea Room in June 2014.
They are a local couple with 2 lovely Daughters and 35 pets and even with full time jobs in education they still find time to run this quaint little tea room and a reptile rescue.
