Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Rye, East Sussex

Thoroughly enjoyed our Tapas Tuesday. Food quality was incredible and we were well looked after in a lovely setting.

Had an afternoon tea at the Abode, Canterbury. The food was exceptional, there was a good variety of sandwiches, wraps, sausage rolls and quiche. There were the traditional fruit scones with cream and jam and the cakes were delicious. All the food was amazing and plenty of it. There was a good selection of different teas to choose from as well. The service was very good, they did not rush us and were very polite and courteous. It made my friend’s birthday celebration very special and will definitely be going back again. Highly recommend, such good value for money.

the service was lovely and very attentive, the table beautifully set. It has been a pleasure to sit and have a really nice cup of tea. Only thing: the variety for vegetarians could be more creative, e.g. using not only cheese or eggs for the sandwiches but avocado, cucumber or something green and fresh. But all in all I really can recommend it and hope to be back in Eastwell Manor for an Afternoon Tea soon. Many thanks!

Service was impeccable! Because of the size of our party (7), we were given the option to go in the main dining room. This worked very well as we could all hear each other so everyone was involved in conversations. The food was lovely and all dietary requirements were catered for. We were even given boxes to take away any items we couldn’t manage to eat!

Food outstanding all fresh highly recommend the lamb shank just fell off bone perfect
