Afternoon Tea

Bath is the perfect place to indulge in the quintessentially English tradition of afternoon tea.  Consisting of a choice of fine teas, a range of delicate sandwiches and a selection of mouthwatering cakes and scones, you will find this tempting treat on offer in various tearooms across the city. Opt for a traditional tea in quaint surroundings or take afternoon tea with a twist.

For a traditional afternoon tea visit the Pump Room where you can marvel at the grand interior whilst listening to live classical music from the Pump Room Trio. Or take tea in the oldest house in Bath and indulge in an afternoon tea served on Sally Lunn buns.

For a Jane Austen tea experience, be sure to pay a visit to The Regency Tea Rooms at the Jane Austen Centre where you can enjoy afternoon tea whilst swooning over Mr Darcy’s portrait which hangs on the wall.

In the summer enjoy alfresco afternoon tea in The Royal Crescent Hotel and Spa’s tranquil English gardens. Choose from savoury and sweet option or bring the whole family along and let the kids tuck into the children’s afternoon tea.

If you fancy something more unusual Brigit’s Bakery serve afternoon tea aboard a classic Routemaster so that you can take in all the sights whilst tucking in. And if Champagne afternoon tea won’t cut it, how about a Gin High Tea?  Visit Circo for an afternoon tea accompanied by four gin and tonics, including one of your own creation.
