I had a lot on recently and having a bit of me time. You know I am a foodie so just booked an afternoon tea at this lovely place that you can build your own selection. I chose things I like and to be honest I like almost everything.
* Smoked salmon, soft cheese and dill
* Egg and watercress
* Cheddar and ham with * marmalade glaze
* Chicken, rocket, and crème fraîche
* Rare roast beef, and horseradish
and
* Vanilla Mille-feuille
* Choolate torte
* Lemon cream doughnuts
* Apple crumble cupcake
* Sultana scone, clotted cream and strawberry jam
A selection of french macaroons comes with it too and of course any tea or coffee you like and a glass of champagne.
Opinions please - anything you would't go for? What dort of stuff you like for your afternoon tea  |

"If I am being ultra picky I would say soft cheese, creme fraiche and horseradish are all quite similar textures.
What were some of the sandwich options you didn't choose ? "
I know what you mean but like that. There were lots from chicken tikka to brie and grapes, prawn (which normally like) and even a pulled pork one |

Good for you treating yourself MB! Sometimes that’s just what we need, eh. I’d have all that except the beef and horseradish. I love rare roast beef but HATE horseradish. Bleurgh. |

Omg that sounds lush - love it all and definitely needs champers! We had a lovely one in The Lake District and booked a room at the hotel to make the most of treating ourselves. Had a jacuzzi bath with TV and mirrored ceiling.

I've never had afternoon tea but I'm dairy intolerant so that rules out so many options.
Just finding a cafe or coffee shop that properly caters for those with intolerances rather than just a bland prepacked selection is a treat in itself. |

Yes not many places cater for that sadly. |

"I’m gluten intolerant so afternoon teas can be difficult
My friend is coeliac. There is a hotel in Crewe that does a gluten free afternoon tea. Google is your friend "
And can have as many olives as they like, I believe |
