You are here: Home > Food and Drink > Afternoon Tea
It’s time for tea, and we’ve got just the thing. Indulge in a delicious afternoon tea surrounded by the natural splendour of the Lake District, Cumbria.
There’s just something about Afternoon Tea: a pause in the day to relax and take some time out over finger sandwiches and delicate bakes, accompanied by loose leaf tea, freshly ground coffee or a glass of fizz. A little slice of luxury in an elegant hotel, a traditional feast in a country hall, or an informal experience in relaxed surroundings. A celebratory event or simply an opportunity to catch up with friends and family. Whatever your taste, whether you prefer to pour milk before or after tea (or not at all), or whether you say 'scon(e)' or 'scone', we’ve got something for you in the Lake District, Cumbria.

Across the area, creative chefs are putting their own twist on this quintessentially British ritual. There are alternative Afternoon Teas with mini fish and chips, popcorn chicken and brownies; gin-centric options served at distilleries; and classic three-tiered cake stands brimming with traditional bakes like scones and pastries. Seasonal variations include festive afternoon teas served in cosy hotels, and themed afternoon teas for events like Mother’s Day; and if you’re looking for the perfect present there are gift vouchers to put a smile on their face. As well as tea and coffee, you can also add a glass of something sparkling; or even a local ale!
And the food isn’t the only thing to look forward to. How about Afternoon Tea with a view? We’re known for our breathtaking natural beauty and it provides the backdrop to many of our dining experiences. Sip your brew overlooking one of our lakes or waters, or surrounded by Lakeland fells; enjoy home baked delicacies in Cumbria's only city - Carlisle; relax in a traditional market town tearoom; and so much more.
If an Afternoon Tea in the Lake District, Cumbria is on your bucket list, make sure you book ahead to avoid missing out. Cheers!
