Situated in Walmington-on-Sea's High Street, the tea rooms are where Mainwaring and Wilson frequently go for their morning break, indulging in a cup of coffee and some rich tea biscuits, unless it's Tuesday, when they opt for rock cakes, fighting over the one with the most fruit. Before the war, afternoon customers could sip their tea or enjoy one of the tea rooms' delicious buns, which were filled with cream on the premises, while listening to Miss Rowlands and her friends entertain with a little light music, a musical treat that was well-received by older patrons. But those days have gone and now, in the event of an invasion, the tea rooms would double-up as the Home Guard's advanced headquarters, because the property is near the Novelty Rock Emporium and Stones' Amusement Arcade, the stretch of coastline patrolled by Mainwaring and his men. Mainwaring describes the tea rooms as a typical English setting and whenever he's there it's difficult to imagine there is a war on. Robin.
