Afternoon Tea in Preston

Lovely afternoon tea. Great venue and excellent sandwiches, scones and cakes

I booked x2 afternoon teas at S&L Blackpool as we were visiting for the day and had a voucher to use. I had struggled to use the vouchers previously. The staff were really good at S&L even phoned me to make sure it was correct for 4 people as I had booked 2 of the same. On arrival a really nice lady greeted us and was more than helpful and very welcoming. The sandwiches were really tasty and fresh. Great selection of everything. Even boxed the rest up for us to take home! Thank you ladies! (22/10/25 1.30pm) unsure of names xx highly recommend them.

Red letter days no problem. Slug and Lettuce Riverside Reading very poor. Waited 5 minutes to be shown to table no one acknowledged us then chose our own. Sat at table for 5 minutes no one acknowledged us. Went to bar waited approx 4 minutes before finally being acknowledged. During all the time we waited three members of staff glanced at us occasionally, never making eye contact or acknowledging us verbally, although the male member of staff continued his conversation with the couple he'd been speaking to outside the venue, when we first arrived. Please forward this to the Slug and Lettuce Riverside Reading then hopefully the experience won't be like this for another Red letter customer, because unfortunately as the provider of the experience it looks very bad for you. The food was nice but only warm, not hot.

Staff were brilliant. The tea was lovely and we enjoyed it
