Wow! That's a lot of food too! What was the quality like? I'm struggling to see scones, were they there?

Looks yum 😋

That's the biggest afternoon tea I've ever seen!

Marylou62 · 28/05/2024 17:17

Wow... I could eat that now.. where was this?
(Just incase it's local and I can go tomorrow)

That looks lush 😍

I love an afternoon tea, but don't often go. I always struggle to eat more than half before feeling like I'm going to burst, so I feel like it's a waste of money for me personally.

Was this in London? I often treat friends to an afternoon tea for their birthday.

IBegYourBiggestPardon · 28/05/2024 17:26

Ask them to box the rest of it up and have it the following day. That's what we do when we go for afternoon tea

All the places I have been to give you a box to take home any leftovers.

Looks quite impressive 👏🏿 👌 too
Quite a lot to eat
At least you get moneys worth there,

Did it taste 😋 as good as it looks too?

I had a birthday booking for afternoon tea before at Chelsea Hotel place,
It was lovely
My daughter booked as a treat

I was curious what quite posh hotel looked like inside and obviously couldn't afford it

So afternoon tea was next best thing..

I love a good afternoon tea. Great trend!

I also love that I have an advert for elasticated waist trousers in the middle of this thread 😂

Me and my friend are off to York Saturday.. Any idea for best afternoon tea please?? Last year we went to Harvey Nichols in Edinburgh.. Oh my days was delicious!

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 28/05/2024 17:33

That looks awesome. I'm not convinced by the serving bookcase. I used to work in Donny, sadly not anymore.

Damn..way too far..
I'm glad it was lovely and you enjoyed it..
Funnily enough I was watching a tv programme about The Lanesbourough Hotel in London and their afternoon tea looked delicious..

It looks delicious but it looks like about a month's worth of food there!
