We will be delighted to accommodate your Afternoon Tea with any special dietary requirements that you and your guests may have, including vegetarian sandwiches, gluten free breads, pastries and scones. We can also remove any fresh cream and mayonnaise products from the afternoon tea stand, if requested. Please note that we will endeavour to ensure that there are no nuts in the Afternoon Tea offering – however all Afternoon Tea products are produced in an environment where nuts are used and we cannot guarantee that our food is 100% free from nuts or nut traces.
