I was so excited to receive a gift voucher for my birthday as I had heard such good things about the Angel Hotel. It was all true! Abergavenny is about a 45 minute drive from Cardiff and on a glorious sunny day it made for a nice day out. Afternoon tea and High tea is... Continue Reading →
Grey Restaurant, Hilton Cardiff
The Hilton Cardiff is always a fab place for a nice sophisticated meal or bottomless brunch (maybe less sophisticated depending on how much you drink). Afternoon tea at the Grey Restaurant is also the perfect way to spend an afternoon. Good views of Cardiff Castle and a good spot for spotting rugby players during the... Continue Reading →
Llanerch Vineyard
Llanerch Vineyard is a romantic venue in Hensol. It's nice to escape to the 'country' even though its only 2 mins from the M4. I have been before for a wedding and an afternoon tea hen party. They have also recently opened a hotel, which looks very swish. We visited in January so it was... Continue Reading →

Coldra Court Hotel by Celtic Manor
The Slider's Afternoon Tea at the Coldra Court Hotel was the perfect Christmas gift for my husband. He still talks about it now! Just before Christmas the Celtic Manor had a promotion for 20% off afternoon tea vouchers. After the lovely Resort tea I'd had, I thought the sliders would be nice gift, that I... Continue Reading →
The Vale Resort and Spa
It was the week before Christmas and a festive afternoon tea was needed to get me in the festive mood. I had seen the Vale Resort had advertised their festive tea on Facebook so I thought I would give it a try. It was a week day, but there was only one other table dining... Continue Reading →
Gellihaf House
I came across Gellihaf House from trawling through Instagram and I started following them through their renovations. Gellihaf House is a family run boutique B&B that has been beautifully restored by its new owners. When I saw they had started serving afternoon tea, I thought I better go check it out. This is the first... Continue Reading →
The Celtic Manor
The Celtic Manor was running a promotion for 20% off gift vouchers so this was the perfect opportunity to go for afternoon tea. I have never been to the Celtic Manor and I have heard mixed reviews.

Park Plaza Cardiff
I went to Park Plaza for my friends birthday in July. I have been many times over the years and it is always a lovely tea. This time I had the Park Plaza Traditional Afternoon Tea as I often go for the Gentleman's tea. As usual on a weekend, the restaurant was busy, but staff... Continue Reading →

Marco Pierre White Steak House, Cardiff
My sister and I took our mum out for a late mothers day afternoon tea on a Friday afternoon. We didn't tell her where we were going, so when we arrived in the Dominions Arcade she was rather confused. I was surprised to find a hotel in the arcade, I haven't been there for a... Continue Reading →
Cathedral 73, Pontcanna
This review contains two visits to Cathedral 73 in Pontcanna. Good Friday was a good excuse to squeeze in another afternoon tea, so I thought afternoon tea with my friends would be a nice treat as we were all off work. I had been wanting to try Cathedral 73 in Pontcanna for a while as... Continue Reading →
The Angel Hotel, Cardiff
I noticed an offer on Groupon for afternoon tea at the Angel Hotel Cardiff for £19 for two people. I hadn't been to the Angel for a good few years, so thought it would be a good excuse for a catch up with my sister-in-law. We decided to invite the hubbies too- as a treat. When... Continue Reading →
Park Plaza Hotel, Cardiff
Welcome to my first review! We recently visited the Park Plaza's Laguna Restaurant and Bar for afternoon tea for a 'not a baby shower, baby shower'. Just a small group of friends wanting to enjoy an afternoon before my close friend popped out a baby. Some of my friends opted for the traditional afternoon tea, but... Continue Reading →
