The proportion of those restaurants that offer afternoon tea will be even lower than this.

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.

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.

Nestled along the south coast of England, Southampton boasts a charming blend of maritime history and modern elegance, making it a delightful destination for those who savour the art of afternoon tea. The city offers a variety of venues where one can indulge in perfectly steeped tea, delicate finger sandwiches, and exquisitely crafted patisserie. Among the local favourites is the Grand Cafe, situated in the historic South Western House. This grand venue, which once welcomed first-class passengers heading to board the Titanic, now serves a splendid afternoon tea in a setting that seamlessly marries Edwardian grandeur with contemporary comfort. Another gem is The Pig in the Wall, a boutique hotel tucked inside part of Southampton's medieval wall. With its rustic yet refined ambience, it offers a more intimate and cosy take on the traditional tea experience, featuring locally sourced ingredients and homemade treats. For a touch of opulence, the Harbour Hotel in Ocean Village provides an elegant take on afternoon tea with views over the marina and a menu that often includes seasonal specialities and unique tea blends. Whether you prefer time-honoured classics or modern flair, Southampton offers a wonderfully satisfying array of choices for the devoted afternoon tea enthusiast.
