Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in West Tanfield

A really beautiful afternoon tea. Mine was vegan and it was exceptional. The service was perfect - friendly and professional.

Extremely enjoyable experience overall - both in terms of food and ambience - to celebrate a friend's birthday., Staff friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Great music being played on the piano.

This is our 2nd time visiting, and the food, service and setting has always been outstanding - 10/10. We were served by James (both times) and Louie? (Sorry if the spelling isn’t right) this most recent time, not to mention the lady hosting (whose name also escapes me, SORRY) - all a credit to the place! We always feel welcome and catered for, and can’t wait to come back again and again.

Lovely afternoon tea in the Garden Room. The sandwiches were nice and the scones were great, they were warmed and served with jam and clotted cream. We had the festive afternoon tea which meant the cakes were festive themed, I would prefer them be the usual cakes. I wasn’t a fan of the Christmas pudding or mince pie flavour. Overall, it was great. I would go back for regular afternoon tea but not the festive one due to the cakes. Service was amazing

I was apprehensive about booking a bottomless brunch here as I assumed we would be waiting a while between drinks. However I couldn’t fault the service at all! When our server (unfortunately I didn’t catch her name) noticed we were close to finishing a drink, she promptly arrived to take another order. We were seated at the end of the restaurant separate from the hustle and bustle also. Our visit was a birthday treat for my Mum and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience, could not recommend more!
