At Newens | The Original Maids of Honour on the Kew Road, we’ve been keeping traditional baking skills alive for over 120 years. And our history dates back even further – to Tudor times and the dainty little tarts we’re named after. Legend has it that ‘Maids of Honour’ were brought to notoriety by Henry VIII who so loved their ‘melt-in-the-mouth’ sensation, he took the recipe and kept it under lock and key at Richmond Palace! Today these delectable pastries are still served warm from our ovens – with a wide variety of other sweet and savoury treats all made by hand to traditional recipes using fresh, natural ingredients. Adjoining the shop, our dining room offers a warm welcome to visitors from near and far – for coffee and cake, high tea, a hot luncheon – whatever takes your fancy…

You may have noticed the scaffolding which went up to the front and side elevations on 20th August. The original roof and slates and also signage was well due a little facelift!
We are currently working on vegan recipes for our savoury and sweet counters. If you, or any of your party are vegan while we are still in the trialling stage, please call and speak to Carrie or Kimberley or Habib and we will be pleased to bring some special things forward for you to have when you visit.
We are sorry to report that in the early hours of Saturday 25th August between 1,30pm and 2.30 pm (they came, tried and then came back again with tools) we were burgled by 2 men who smashed through the original 1700’s front door. The same front door which withstood the bomb hit in World War 2. The door put up a good fight for quite some time but in the end its seasoned wood panels could not withstand the force of a metal crowbar with a rather big chap (looks rather like Peter Kay) on the end of it. Please do have a look at the perpetrators and spread the word because we are fairly sure that this was not their first spree. If you have any information, please do call us at Maids. There will be a reward for any information which leads to the conviction. This is the 5th time we have been burgled in the last 12 months………………………
