Thou soft, thou sober, sage and venerable liquid, Thou female tongue-running, smile-smoothing, Heart-opening, wink-tipping cordiale, to whose glorious insipidity owe the happiest moment of my life, let me fall prostrate” “The soothing rite that calms the soul, lifts the spirit and makes any afternoon an extraordinary event” ~ Colley Cibber: The Lady’s Last Stake, 1708 Afternoon Tea at The Egerton House Hotel is served Thursday-Sunday from 12.00pm until 6.00pm THE HISTORY OF TEA Afternoon Tea as a specific meal did not evolve until the beginning of the nineteenth century, although the drink had been popular since its introduction in 1559. Anna, Duchess of Bedford, invented the meal to fill the time between early luncheon and late dinner which she felt proved to be the low point of many a country house party. As time progressed, it became a meal surrounded by etiquette and very strange customs; silver teapots, delicate china, cake stands, starched napkins, whether to pour the milk before or after the tea? The heyday of Afternoon Tea was in the days of the British Empire when the “Sahib” and his family, having taken early luncheon, would have to wait until the cool of the late evening to take dinner. Afternoon Tea once again filled the gap - when they returned home they brought the ceremony back home with them. It was at this point that the fashionable hotels took whole-heartedly to the serving of traditional afternoon and Devonshire cream teas. We’d love for you to share photos of your Egerton Afternoon Tea experience on one of our Social Media sites @EgertonHouseHotel @Egerton_House @Egerton_Hotel Cream Tea 30.00 Your choice from our finest loose-leaf teas with freshly home baked plain and fruit scones served with Devonshire clotted cream and selection of preserves.
