For a more relaxed yet equally indulgent experience, Chicheley Hall’s Afternoon Tea is a perfect choice. Served every Sunday from 12pm to 5pm, guests can enjoy a quintessentially British spread of delicate finger sandwiches, fresh scones with clotted cream and jam, and an exquisite selection of patisserie, from zesty lemon tarts to indulgent chocolate brownies. In the summer months, afternoon tea can be taken outside on the terrace, overlooking the lush gardens, while in the winter, guests can cosy up by the fire or enjoy the elegant surroundings of the restaurant. Festive afternoon teas are also available throughout December, offering a seasonal twist on this timeless tradition.
