Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Chew Magna

Booked a brunch grazing board for 7 people on a hen do the morning after!! The staff were lovely, smiley and attentive. The food was yummy, beautifully presented and such good value. We even got some boxes to take home some of the bits we didn’t manage to finish. A wonderful end to a fun weekend in Bath. Thank you 😊

I’ve been to the Ivy many times and we were visiting for my sister’s birthday. The venue is lovely which is why I always come here for special occasions. Our server was friendly and helpful. Everyone was really happy with their meals and good size portions too. The buffalo mozzarella was very delicious. Lovely gesture to give my sister a free desert with a candle in it.

From the moment we arrived we were welcomed in warmly. The table was dressed festively. Our waitress (sorry I cannot remember her name) was lovely and helpful and confirmed that our special requirements of no fish had been noted. The food was delicious and there was a good choice of cakes and mini desserts as well as the normal scones, clotted cream and jam. However, the homemade mince pie was simply superb. I am 57yrs old and eaten a lot of mince pies over the years, and I can say this was THE BEST MINCE PIE I have ever eaten!!

We booked this for a company meal and it wasn't quite the right vibe for it. It's better for a quick meal with a glass of wine and a chat, not so much a sit-down as it was noisy. But the staff were amazing, very friendly and helpful, the food was great as well. One of our party was dairy-intolerant, which we mentioned as we were greeted, but then that wasn't passed onto our server. So my colleague ended up with a big ball of mozzarella on her pizza. Mistakes do happen and we should've also mentioned it to the server. And once they realised the mistake, the staff were great about it, offered to make a new pizza, get us some extras and in general were very accommodating. So a lovely place, good food, good staff and nice vibe.

Amazing afternoon tea; seated in the Lanson Champagne bar and were practically the only guests sitting for a 4PM tea. Wonderfully decadent to have the place virtually to ourselves on Christmas Eve Eve!
