Grand Hotel York Afternoon Tea Review: March 2018
Located in an enviable postcode, in the heart of York City centre, offering incredible views of the historic wonderful wall, The Grand Hotel is the perfect place for a pit-stop to enjoy the quintessentially English tradition of Afternoon Tea.
Experience the grandeur of the Grand and enjoy their signature five-star Afternoon tea served in the relaxed Rise restaurant & bar. Warmly welcomed by Mark and his team, we prepared to sit back, relax and enjoy the tranquillity.
Let the staff attend to your needs, as you catch up with friends, family & loved ones, over fabulous finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones and lovely pastries & sweet treats galore.
Why not go all out and bring on the Champagne bubbles…add on a glass of the fizzy stuff or a handcrafted mocktail to make your Afternoon tea super special.
The decadent, delightful and delicious dessert offerings were eye catching and included the flamboyant flamingo style pink raspberry cupcakes, mouth-watering meringues, carrots slices, pretty profiteroles layered with scrummy chocolate and cute chocolate hearts filled with raspberry yumminess.
Friendly, yet unobtrusive, attentive service with scrummy sandwiches, sensational scones and tasty sweet treats, all washed down with some fabulous refreshments, in an opulent and luxurious setting. It is safe to say Afternoon Tea at the Grand Hotel York was a resounding success.
Thank you for reading 😊
