Traditional Afternoon Tea

Have to say we had a really enjoyable afternoon there. The food was very nice and the staff were really lovely. Couldn’t fault it.

Great food and drinks couldn't fault it. Great service too.

Was treated to this. My friend and I went to Cribbs and had a lovely time. Very attentive staff and lovely food. Scones were warm and nice selection of sandwiches and cakes.

Fabulous day out! The food was delicious! And very well presented it didn't look a lot, but was very filling we even had to take some home with us. The staff are really nice and looked after us well.

Really enjoyed our afternoon at the Horseguards Hotel in London. We arrived early and enjoyed a drink on the terrace. The afternoon tea was great there was plenty to eat too much for me which my husband was pleased about and finished off the leftovers.

Despite the original tea hall being closed for refurbishment, the temporary location was suitably grand. An accomplished piano player played modern tunes throughout. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The cream tea included a glass of champagne, your own choice of tea each and 2 plain and 2 fruit scones with clotted cream and jam. We were offered more scones and more tea which the server said were included, however 2 scones each and a pot full of tea was enough for us so we declined. Just a couple of things buyers should be aware of though - on booking you are asked to secure the booking with a credit card which will not be charged BUT if you cancel your booking within 24 hrs is charged at £25 pp. Also, your server brings a bill for optional service charge of 12.5% plus £1 pp cover charge - totalling £9.50 currently.

Excellent staff. Frieand polite. Explained everything and served in good time.

We rang only the day before to check if Afternoon Tea was available on a Sunday knowing they served Sunday lunch. A check of the bookings, the call handler offered the option for anytime after 3.30. We agreed to 4pm. On the Sunday we made out way to what is a destination venue, it is nearly the last property in the rural village before the gate onto the North Yorks moors. The grange is a substantial stone dwelling, quaint and personal. Met in reception, despite being 15 minutes early we were welcomed and invited to sit in the sitting room or roam the gardens and someone would find us when they were ready. A quick tour of the rose garden, we were met on the small terraced lawn and offered the choice to sit onside or iunder a parasol at a table on the lawn. We chose to sit out and enjoy some sunshine. Once seated were were offered tea or coffee and asked if we had any allergies. The large pot of tea with a pot of hot water arrived with the pots of jam and cream soon followed by the tray of sandwiches. The sandwiches were in brown bread -alternatives were not offered- also on the platter were sausage roll, jam centered buns, peaches in elderflower jelly. The bread was soft the sandwiches fresh - the filling were good but no options were offered. The Elderflower jelly was a surprise and very refreshing!!! The teapot was sufficient for 6 decent sized cups of tea with a fresh pot and more hot water offered. Part way through the sandwiches a plate with home made warm scones arrived. They were very light and deliciously crumbly and went down well with the thick cream and strawberry jam. Staff came to enquire everything was ok and were chatty and friendly throughout. We were not pressed to leave even after we had eaten and we took the chance to admire the furniture and clocks. Would go again!!!
