About Bettys Café Tea Rooms

If Bettys is the home of Afternoon Tea, this is our palace. Traditional afternoon tea is served daily in all branches throughout Yorkshire, no reservation required.

The luxury, reservation only Afternoon Tea is a singularly stylish and devilishly delicious experience – is served in the elegant Imperial Room at Bettys Harrogate and the Queen Mary-inspired Belmont Room at Bettys York and it may just be the secret of happiness.

Blended to a tea

A selection of rare and fine teas, especially sourced by Bettys own expert tea buyers to complement the menu, includes an exclusive Bettys Afternoon Tea Blend.

This distinctly flavoured tea brings together the depth and flavour of top quality Assam complemented by the delicate floral notes of Darjeeling – the Champagne of teas.

A Devine Menu Enjoy the changing seasonal menu with such delights as Prawn, Spring Onion and Cucumber Cocktail, Miniature Red Pepper & Tomato Tart, Chicken Caesar Sandwiches, fresh- baked Lemon and Sultana scones and patisserie including Salted Caramel Pillow, Passionfruit and Lemon Macaroon and Apple and Vanilla Custard Tart. Vegetarian and Vegan menus are also available.

A splendid setting Lady Betty Afternoon Tea is presented on a sparkling silver three-tiered stand and served on fine bone china made by Royal Crown Derby, decorated with a delicate tea leaf design bespoke to Bettys. The historic, elegant surroundings of The Imperial Room and The Belmont Room are the perfect setting for such a luxurious experience, and music from the cafe pianist completes the sense of occasion.

Book Your Own Private Afternoon Tea Both the Imperial Room at Harrogate and Belmont Room at York are available for private hire outside the times of Afternoon Tea. Whether you are a small gathering, or a large party, Bettys can tailor an event to suit your needs and organise everything to make it a really special occasion.
