Feedback from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive.

Lovingly crafted by the in-house team at Frankley’s Bakery, the afternoon tea showcases an exquisite selection of home-baked breads, delicate pastries, and timeless favourites, all made using the finest quality ingredients.

Priced at £27 per person, the experience includes a thoughtful selection of savoury delights.
