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 →
Beauty & the Beast at the Angel Bar & Grill
My first themed afternoon tea was at the Angel Bar and Grill in Hendredenny, Caerphilly. I had been lusting over the Beauty and the Beast afternoon tea in the Kensington Hotel London, but stumbled across a more local venue on Google. The venue was smartly decorated and our table was set up with Mrs Potts... 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 →

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 →
