Mother's Day Afternoon Tea
This trip out included not just me and hubby but also our mums. Booked a week in advance and at just £10.95 not bad value at all especially with it being Mother's Day.
The venue is very nice, you get to the restaurant through the garden centre and it is to the side of the river/brook. We were shown to a table in the corner overlooking the river so the position was great.
The staff there were very efficient and attentive as soon as we were seated. They made it very clear that tea and coffee was unlimited and to simply ask if we required more at any time. As it happens we didn't need to as they were quick off the mark at asking throughout the time there.
This was very leisurely and there was no rush which was appreciated.
We had two tiered stands one for each couple. The sandwiches included, salmon and cream cheese, ham and Lancashire cheese. They were fresh and flavoursome.
The section of cakes included a mini fruit tartlet, Victoria sandwich, chocolate brownie, and a mini carrot cake.
Not forgetting the fresh scone that was served with plenty of jam and cream.
The atmosphere being Mother's Day was very nice but I have no doubt that it is usually like that anyway.
On exit each of the mums (including me) where given a little pot plant which was a nice touch.
