Reviews
Delicious afternoon tea at a very good price. Lots of food for 3 people—finger sandwiches, waffles, warm scone with jam and cream, and a variety of small cakes. Great value!
My daughters treated me to afternoon tea for my birthday. The food was lovely—a large spread—and my granddaughters had the children's afternoon tea on their own stand. The staff were friendly and attentive.
The afternoon tea boxes are made with delicious fresh ingredients and are perfect for any occasion. Freshly made sandwiches, croissants, and scones. Our waffle and crêpe bites served with fresh fruit and sauces really make our afternoon teas unique.
Escape the ordinary and enjoy every moment with our afternoon tea for two! Spaces are limited, so book now to treat someone special (or yourself!) to the ultimate afternoon delight.
Afternoon tea for the lovely Caron for her 70th birthday—a real pleasure to set up. Gluten-free and vegan afternoon tea too!
