Afternoon Tea
Experience the English classic at this Cornish destination.
Jam first
Or second… we don't mind. All we want is for you to devour our delicious scones, served with clotted cream. We also prepare a range of tasty sandwiches, using local ingredients. Plus our chefs create a range of fresh pastries for you to enjoy.
We regularly change our afternoon tea menu to reflect the seasons and ingredients available. This gives you a great excuse to indulge repeatedly throughout the year.
Traditional or tipsy
Afternoon teas have evolved since 1840, when Anna, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, decided that afternoons were shamefully foodless.
At Talland Bay, you can tuck into a moreish selection of fresh homemade cakes, sandwiches and scones. Alongside the food, we offer tea and coffee, as well as a crisp glass of bubbly or a G&T. This is your afternoon tea, for you to enjoy how you want.
Available until the 12th October. Halloween season is then in full swing until the 1st November when our traditional offering will be served until the 30th November.
Please be aware a booking is required for afternoon tea, with a minimum of 24 hours notice so our chefs have time to prepare your delicious treats.
Halloween afternoon tea
Embrace Halloween with afternoon tea on the stunning Cornish coast. With its dramatic cliffs and history of smuggling, Talland Bay is the perfect spooky backdrop for tea and sandwiches. But don’t worry, there are no tricks – just delicious treats to enjoy.
Looking for something more traditional? Our much-loved classic Afternoon Tea is available to book throughout November too.
