Vintage Afternoon Tea Catering

Our vintage afternoon tea is one of our most loved services — perfect for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, hen parties, funerals and celebrations of life. Everything is freshly made in‑house and beautifully presented on our mismatched fine bone china with silk ribbon bows, charger plates, vintage linens and tiered stands.

Choose from three menu options, themed afternoon teas, boxed afternoon tea or full vintage crockery service.
