    Lovely afternoon tea, the food and service were excellent we could have additional tea, sandwiches if required our favourite sandwich the salmon and watercress I have to admit we did have extra 😋 the waitress was very attentive and kept checking we were okay. We did opt for the champagne afternoon tea which I think was a little expensive at £52.95 ph but as a special treat with a friend on a shopping day out in York just had to be done. There was one thing we were so disappointed with was that Betty’s had run out of Fat Rascals and we were unable to take any home both myself and my friend had ordered a box of four each which we were sharing with family on Mother’s Day the following day so we had to explain that they had sold out😟 But all in all a great time.

    Wonderful afternoon tea. The blend of tea they use is outstanding as were the sandwiches, scones, cakes and savory items.

    The vegan afternoon tea was delicious and the service exceptional. Our waiter was so knowledgeable about the dishes and went out of his way to help us. We would definitely recommend Betty’s afternoon tea.

    Wow! We were totally blown away with the quality of the service, ambience and best of all, the food and drinks! I would say the quality of the food is on par, if not better than The Ritz afternoon tea. A total must when visiting York!

    Very nice afternoon tea. A little expensive but great as a special treat. We were close to the piano so that was a little loud.

    Excellent service from start to finish couldn’t fault them at all. The afternoon tea was delicious and the waitress was very nice,polite and was happy to replenish any sandwiches or top up our tea free of charge as well. I’d definitely give them 5/5 stars and I’d definitely go back here again.
