While many patrons commend the attentive service and freshly made sandwiches, opinions on the food quality vary. Some guests found the savory selections to be bland and uninspired, contrasting with the delightful pastries and scones. Despite a notable increase in price due to service charges, many visitors believe the overall experience is worthwhile. With a warm ambiance and accommodating staff, Cliveden remains a charming destination for those seeking a refined tea experience, especially during special occasions.
We were enjoying a pre-wedding celebration of afternoon tea and it met every expectation and more. We all had a wonderful time. Our dietary needs were extremely well catered for and the food was perfect. We were made to feel very special, especially the bride to be and thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon tea experience. Huge thanks to the chefs, waiting and other staff for their attentiveness and professionalism.
Great afternoon tea experience the staff were really fantastic engaging, fun and relaxed. Nice atmosphere and obviously wonderful surroundings in the buildings and the grounds. A really special place for a visit and recommended for sure!
We celebrated my father's 88th birthday at Cliveden with afternoon tea and had an exceptional experience. The service was outstanding as the staff quickly accommodated our request to move to a window table. They were attentive, with one waitress even noticing my mother needed a cushion for her seat. The tea selection was superb, including sandwiches, savouries, scones, jam, lemon curd, and cakes. They also surprised my father with a birthday plate of chocolate gateau. My parents, who are afternoon tea enthusiasts, were very impressed. I am grateful to the staff for making it a memorable occasion and would definitely return.

My sisters coffee pot had washing up liquid foaming around the lid. The staff were bored, indifferent an everything was far too much trouble for them. The cost was over £400 for under £20 of very poor quality stale food and rude staff. Our family are huge fans of afternoon tea and like to try a new venue for a special occasion, two of our party had come hundreds of miles and one was from overseas who wanted to try a traditional British afternoon tea, I was so embarrassed by the quality and the food and indifferent service. This is certainly not a venue where you will be warmly welcomed and treated to a special experience as we were made to feel we were nothing but an inconvenience and then hugely overcharged for the privileged!!.
Excellent Afternoon Tea with exceptional service. After visiting Cliveden National Trust many times, I have always wanted to see inside the house and it exceeded my expectations. The Afternoon Tea was delicious with more tea and sandwiches offered. The cakes were fantastic and the warm...
