Afternoon Tea in Dorset

Looking for something a bit special for an afternoon treat?  Then sit down, relax and enjoy a quintessentially English afternoon tea at one of Dorset’s superb restaurants or tea rooms.

Indulge in finely cut sandwiches with delectable fillings and a selection of beautiful cakes which look too good to eat…well almost!

Which comes first…jam or cream?

An afternoon tea wouldn’t be complete without a freshly baked, fluffy scone with a good dollop of clotted cream and a spoonful of jam…or should it be the other way round?  Here in Dorset, we don’t mind which you prefer, both ways sound delicious to us!

Celebrate in Style

What better way to celebrate a special occasion than with an afternoon tea in Dorset? Whether its tea for 2 or gatherings for 22, a surprise birthday treat or a secret baby shower, an afternoon tea is an occasion to be treasured.
