Afternoon Tea

Within the city walls you can enjoy luxurious luncheons in historic buildings, fresh roast coffee, homemade cakes and, for the ultimate decadent treat, a splash of Champagne.From street cafés to the world famous Bettys tearooms where you can enjoy a Lady Betty, perhaps the queen of afternoon teas, you're never far from a relaxing lunch in York.

For afternoon tea in an unusual surrounding, step back in time to the era of elegant train journeys by taking yours in a luxury carriage, or in a boat cruising along the River Ouse. If a themed event is more your cup of tea, the Mad Hatter’s Afternoon Tea takes you into Alice in Wonderland territory, from the table décor to the ‘drink me potions’.
