• Afternoon Tea • Southend-on-Sea
The venue is beautiful and a calm setting with great views. The food was on the whole was ample and a good selection. The sandwiches were a little dry on both sides and although there was a great selection of cakes, there were three of us and sometimes only 1 or 2 of the mini cakes on offer. Everything else had three eg three sandwiches, three scones Every all it was a great experience and value for money.

It is a nice restaurant with a view of Southend airport which currently is very quite (the airport) The staff were very helpful and friendly which was great, the food was good and even with the starter of my partner being slightly over cooked, they removed it from the bill and thanked us for our genuine feedback. Overall i would return to the restaurant and could recommend it.

The lady that looked after us and served our afternoon tea was so lovely. I come back especially to Eastwell Manor for afternoon tea because of her service as much as the great ambience and surroundings

• Afternoon Tea • Canterbury
The food was incredibly delicious! The choice of flavours was excellent. Our celebration went beautifully. One problem we experienced was the noise level as we had difficulty hearing each other. Another problem experienced by two elderly guests was a step near the Ladies which isn’t clearly marked (with yellow and black striped tape for example) and so is a trip hazard.
