Great food and amazing service as always. We love eating here and giving my daughter the crayons to colour in while she waits for her food is such a nice touch. Thanks

Afternoon Tea

Marazion

About the restaurant

Afternoon Tea at the Harbour Loft on St Michael’s Mount is the perfect way to celebrate a special occasion or complete a visit to this enchanting island. Head Chef Greg Milne has created a menu inspired by fresh Cornish produce to be enjoyed on our unique island setting, with sea views north and the backdrop of the castle to the south.

Precisely-cut sandwiches are accompanied by freshly-baked cakes and pastries; while traditional treats boast creative twists. Choose from an extensive selection of Tregothnan tea or add a little fizz with a glass of sparkling wine, produced in a Cornish vineyard just a stone’s throw from the Mount.

When you book, please see the website for information about how to access the island as it varies between walking a cobbled tidal causeway and booking a boat, depending on the tide: https://stmichaelsmount.co.uk/plan-your-visit/opening-times-2023-24/

Polite notice: our restaurant only serves Afternoon Tea and we do not take pre-payment.

What an amazing festive treat. The service and food was incredible... Nothing was too much trouble for the super-friendly team. I've been for all the seasonal afternoon teas here this year and each one has brought a wonderful taste of the season whilst retaining the most beautiful presentation and variety. The festive cocktails were a lovely addition and the mulled wine was really tasty. This festive AT is only running for 3 days but I would urge you to book - you won't be disappointed.
