Your Ultimate Cream Tea Experience in Sidmouth
At Someday Something, we believe that the perfect cream tea is an art form. Established in Sidmouth, our journey began with owner Jamey D'Amato's passion for baking, honed through 3,000 miles of life changes from Vermont to Devon. Our scones are baked fresh daily using traditional techniques perfected over years, creating a reputation as the home of the finest cream teas in the West Country. The caf's warm atmosphere reflects our commitment to hospitality, with a team that treats every customer like family. We source ingredients locally wherever possible, partnering with Devon suppliers like The Coffee Factory and Hogsbottom for premium quality products. Our menu blends British classics with subtle American influences, including Jamey's New England-inspired Hot Spiced Apple and Vermont maple porridge.Despite our growing reputation, we maintain our founding principles of quality, service, and community belonging. The caf's popularity has led to merchandise demand, with our staff uniforms becoming a talking point among regulars. Every morning before sunrise, our team prepares fresh batches of scones to guarantee optimal quality for both our seated customers and mail-order clients. This dedication to excellence has earned consistent praise from locals and visitors alike, establishing us as a cherished part of Sidmouth's social fabric. Our wheelchair accessibility and dog-friendly policy ensure that everyone feels welcome in this character-filled space.
