Weddings and events venue Salomons Estate is celebrating a quintessentially British summer with a new afternoon tea menu. Featuring all-time favourites with an enticing selection of sweet and seasonal flavours, Head Chef Daniel Yardley said he was determined to bring a unique twist to the English tradition, which can be enjoyed overlooking the estate’s 36-acre grounds.
Nestled in the winding countryside of Tunbridge Wells, the Victorian manor house is a renowned destination for afternoon tea and celebrates the British affair with seasonally changing menus.
Available from Wednesday 31 May, the mouth-watering selection of new scrumptious treats pays homage to British summertime flavours.
Indulge in popular savouries like cucumber and mint cream cheese finger-cut sandwiches, coronation chicken bridge rolls and smoked Applewood cheddar and chive tart, before feasting on a delicious selection of homemade desserts.
Alongside traditional fruit and vanilla scones served with fresh clotted cream and preserve, matcha tea and pistachio opera cake, raspberry, rosewater and white chocolate flowerpots and blueberry and limoncello posset with toasted meringue will also join the spread.
Diners can also look forward to a new tea menu featuring fruit and herbal infusions like pink grapefruit, red berry, and lemongrass and ginger, plus favourites like breakfast tea, Earl Grey blue flower and locally sourced coffees.
Daniel Yardley said: “We’re thrilled to unveil our tasty new menu. It’s our most refreshing yet, with brand new flavours to make all your favourite summer moments just that little bit sweeter”.
Afternoon tea can be enjoyed Monday – Sunday in the conservatory or on the outdoor terrace, which overlooks panoramic views of the estate’s stunning gardens. Bookings can be made on OpenTable or by calling the team on 01892 515 152.
