The Experience

If you're looking for a unique and memorable gift, this Gin & Tea Afternoon Tea is the perfect treat. Nestled beneath the iconic Lion Rock in the heart of the breathtaking Cheddar Gorge, this experience takes place in one of the most historic and picturesque tea rooms in Somerset.

Trading since 1908, this award-winning venue is a slice of history. With accolades such as Somerset Life Magazine’s Best Independent Tea/Coffee Shop and a Gold Award from the Bristol, Bath and Somerset Tourism Awards, you know you're in for something truly special.

The experience includes a beautifully presented, classic afternoon tea. You’ll enjoy a selection of delicate cut sandwiches with traditional fillings like Cheddar cheese & cucumber, roast ham, and free-range egg mayonnaise. Follow that with a homemade fruit or plain scone, served with rich clotted cream and sweet strawberry jam. A selection of mini sweet treats or a slice of cake from their tempting list rounds off this indulgent experience.

Each guest also enjoys a refreshing glass of gin, either classic or fruity, paired with your choice of mixer. And of course, no tea is complete without a proper brew, choose from a pot of loose leaf black tea or an americano.

With six themed rooms, including cosy options with wood burners and open fires in winter and a tranquil garden for summer, the setting is as charming as the food. Whether you’re treating a loved one or celebrating a special occasion, the Gin & Tea Afternoon Tea is an unforgettable way to relax and enjoy the beauty of Somerset.
