Award Winning Afternoon Tea in East Wales

Please note, leading restaurant guides issue awards to restaurants based on dining from a full menu and will not normally consider afternoon tea when deciding how highly to rate a restaurant. Therefore the above restaurants are not ranked, although it's a safe bet that any restaurant serving award winning food in East Wales is also likely to provide some of the best afternoon tea in East Wales! Please also note that for the restaurants listed above, afternoon tea may be offered within the parent hotel/venue the restaurant resides in, rather than in the restaurant itself.

Ah, East Wales, a marvellous region for those of us with an affinity for the genteel tradition of afternoon tea. Nestled between the bustling cities and the rolling Welsh hills, this area offers a delightful blend of classic and contemporary tea experiences. Newport, for instance, boasts a few true gems for tea enthusiasts. The Celtic Manor Resort is one such renowned venue where afternoon tea is an art form, offering a luxurious spread of scones, finger sandwiches, and an array of patisseries while you gaze out at the verdant Welsh countryside. It's the perfect way to enjoy a quintessentially British indulgence in an opulent setting. For a more quaint experience, you might venture to Abergavenny, a charming market town often referred to as the "Gateway to Wales." There, The Angel Hotel has earned a much-deserved reputation for its award-winning afternoon tea. Their selection of delicate pastries, accompanied by perfectly brewed loose-leaf tea, makes every visit an effortless escape into a world of elegance. Their traditional afternoon tea is prepared fresh daily, and the hotel has won several accolades for its dedication to offering the finest sweet and savoury treats. Whether you're soaking in the luxurious atmosphere of a grand hotel or opting for something more intimate in the heart of a Welsh town, East Wales indeed has much to offer the avid afternoon tea aficionado.
