Afternoon Tea

The wonderful tradition of afternoon tea may be enjoyed with a special touch at Venus Sophia. Experience our caring, attentive service, while appreciating one of the most celebrated rituals of tea culture, in a relaxed and elegant setting.

Our refreshing afternoon tea includes the traditional delectable finger sandwhcihes, featuring our creative house-made Vegetarian fillings. Savour the taste of sun-dried tomatoes with fresh basil, organic Mediterranean style hummus, artichoke hearts, and English cucumber with cheese and mint. A seasonal selection of light pastries, chocolate and shortbread are sure to please your sweet tooth, along with a freshly baked scone served with cream and strawberry jam. To compliment your meal and help cleanse your palate, a fresh fruit plate is served with a new twist, by introducing a beautifully presented tropical variety. Delicious food can only be complete with a delicious tea, and at Venus Sophia there is an extensive organic loose leaf tea list to choose from. May we suggest our premium Darjeeling, Monk’s Blend, Jasmine Flower, Cream Earl Grey, herbal Roman Provence, or Blueberry Ceylon. Tea is served in dainty antique tea cups and teapots; a charming and memorable way to spend your tea time.
