Afternoon Tea is back at Dobbies 

 

Dobbies’ Afternoon Tea is now back on the menu with a range of dishes and options to suit all diners. 

 

The Traditional Afternoon Tea includes a host of finger sandwiches as well as plain and fruit scones with jam and clotted cream. Customers can also enjoy a selection of homemade mini cakes, slices and a strawberry tart, with a pot of freshly brewed tea or coffee.

 

Dobbies’ Vegan Afternoon Tea is also available, including freshly prepared falafel wraps and vegan sausage rolls. As well as plain and fruit scones and tea or coffee, a variety of vegan bakes are also included, with a brownie, orange and apricot slice, banana and berry slice and a carrot and pistachio slice.

 

Both the Traditional and Vegan Afternoon Tea is priced at £10.95 per person. Customers can make their Afternoon Tea extra special and upgrade with a 200ml bottle of Prosecco for £6.35 per adult, or upgrade their hot drink to a latte, cappuccino, mocha, hot chocolate or speciality tea for an additional 50p.

 

The Kids’ Afternoon Tea features a range of sweet and savoury snacks and a Capri-Sun. Children can enjoy two flower-shaped sandwiches, celery sticks and a cream cheese dip, a mini chocolate muffin and doughnuts, and chocolate strawberries and grapes, all for £5.70 per person.  

 

Graeme Jenkins, CEO at Dobbies, said: “Our Afternoon Tea always proves popular with customers, so it’s great to have it back on the menu. We have some delicious new additions, as well as a host of plant-based options, and hope people enjoy it while catching up with family and friends.”  

 

With restaurants now reopen, Dobbies is also supporting the Government’s Eat Out to Help Out scheme, with diners receiving a 50% discount on food and non-alcoholic drinks (up to the value of £10) every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday between the 3 and 31 August.
