Afternoon Tea in Hertfordshire

The hotel is lovely, clean bright and welcoming. The staff were cheerful and polite and immediately mentioned that they were aware of the emails that I had earlier sent to them, telling them about my allergies. I gave them a paper, taken from Allergy UK, explaining everything about my BOP allergy, and they were not only interested, because no one had heard of it, but asked if they could print a copy off. They said that they would show it to the chef, but also keep it as future reference for any other sufferers. We were then shown to our table, and the chef, and serving staff had gone the extra mile to make sure everything was correct, even placing different items on my server that they knew I was safe to eat. It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon tea. It felt so special and the staff were so friendly and welcoming, that we felt like regulars. We will certainly be going back again.

Great venue and friendly staff

It took me a while to organise it but once I’d made up my mind it was a very simple process booking the afternoon tea. I booked this one because it was close by and I’d heard good things about it. It didn’t disappoint! We had a lovely time with top quality sandwiches and a nice selection of cakes, scones and desserts plus endless tea.

The staff were extremely helpful and polite, and they came to check on you periodically, the afternoon tea was first class.

Our son and daughter in law gave us an afternoon tea with Prosecco as a gift and it was very enjoyable. The staff were very friendly and the food was all very tasty. The scones were still warm when they were brought to us. Lovely surroundings too! Would definitely recommend.

Afternoon Tea at Slug & Lettuce was a lovrly experience. Staff were very attentive & mindful of allergies we had expressed on booking. Food & drinks were lovely

Lovely setting, food and atmosphere … would use again!

Lovely, delicate, well presented food. Very friendly and helpful staff.
