At Delapré Abbey June 7 and 8 2025

Afternoon Teas in the Orangery

“Scone anyone?”

Let Delapré Abbey’s Bart Polinski, head chef at Hibiscus, transport you to that most quintessential moment in the day of an English country house – the afternoon tea – popularised in the 1840s by Duchess Anna Maria, wife of the 7th Duke of Bedford.

Freshly prepared by Bart and his team of chefs, they will create a special menu for the food festival. Afternoon teas are available to book in advance here. A ticket for the festival is also required.
