Vintage-Style Afternoon Teas

About Us

Based on the East Herts/West Essex border and founded in January 2017, an idea borne out of my 50th birthday celebrations – to bring back the enjoyment of afternoon tea, vintage-style.

I offer a choice of homemade afternoon teas which are perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, hen parties, business events or just a get-together with family and friends.

Bookings now being taken; please see 'Contact Us
and Booking' page for full details.
