Afternoon Tea is served at any time during the day but please arrive an hour at least before closing time in order to enjoy the full experience.

Most of our Tea Rooms accept groups and parties but will depend on the numbers in the party/group as not all of the Tea Rooms have the capacity to take large numbers (please call your desired Tea Room for confirmation and availability)

We do not hire our Tea Rooms for exclusive use during opening times but bookings outside these times will be considered.

English Afternoon Tea served on a three tier cake stand with two freshly made sandwiches of your choice, homemade fruit scones, Tiptree Little Scarlet Strawberry preserve and Rodda’s classic Cornish clotted cream. A selection of our miniature individual patisserie items to finish, with your choice of tea or coffee.

Afternoon tea for two people costs £32 and you can upgrade with a 100ml glass of Prosecco each for an extra £8.

All of our Tea Rooms and Jam Shop sell gift cards. Alternatively you can purchase an e-voucher via our partners at Pressi.co.uk

We are sorry to say that we are no longer able to offer tours of the Factory but we do have the informative Tiptree Jam Museum that you can walk round at your own leisure for free.

The Tea Rooms offer Gluten Free options but it is always preferred to call ahead to ensure they have fresh options at the time of your visit.

Our Summer and Winter opening times change at the same time as the British Summer Time (BST) and the UK Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Please call ahead of your visit if you are unsure on the opening times.

Dogs are welcome to sit outside at any of our Tea Rooms, our Essex Rose and Southwold Tea Rooms have the capacity to allow well behaved dogs inside. Unfortunately the Tiptree, Heybridge Basin, Writtle, Saffron Walden, Cressing Temple, Barleylands, Osea and Bond Street tea rooms do not have the capacity to allow dogs inside.

We extend a warm invitation to dogs in our Secret Garden at the Tiptree Tea Room. They are happily welcomed to enjoy both the garden and the marquee. To ensure a smooth entry, we kindly request that dogs enter the garden through the back gate, instead of accessing it through the Tea Room.

The Tiptree tea rooms serve sandwiches, toasties, scones and cakes until 30 minutes before closing. All other lunches will not be served after 3pm.

All of the Tiptree Tea Room gift cards (excluding Pressi e-vouchers) will expire 24 months from issue. If you would like to know the specific date that your card expires please email your serial number to tiptree@trooms.com

All of the Tiptree Tea Rooms are participating in the Tea Room Passport promotion. A list of the Tiptree Tea Rooms can be found on our locations page.
