Had afternoon tea here today with my Mum. A lovely, old style affair on a rubbish weather Sunday afternoon. Not been there before but will certainly return- very friendly atmosphere, scrumptious food and lashings of tea. Will sample the savoury food next time! A special mention to the lovely young man who served us- he was delightful and very courteous. Good times!

I took my friend here yesterday for a Gold afternoon tea and we were greeted warmly and given our bubbly garnished with fresh strawberries. Then we had delicious finger sandwiches (of our choice) I had ham and my friend had lamb on lovely fresh brown bread served with salad garnish. I have often not been given a choice of sandwiches and rarely any salad with them so this was really appreciated and obviously completely freshly made. We had huge pots of tea with it (unfortunately no earl grey) with offers of refills and we didn't feel rushed at all even though we were rolling into the evening dining slot time. Next we were served warm fruit scones with a lovely selection of little cakes, carrot, custard slice, chocolate and cheesecake. Everything was perfect. We went away very satisfied and will return! For people who don't know Thornbury, the pub is situated in the High Street with lots of shops to look in. a good place for browsing before or after an afternoon tea!
