Went for our Birthday (83) treat. Both on the same day, same age!! Dining room quiet . Only three tables taken which was surprising. Food and service very good. Only moan was the lack of heating , a bit too cool for the end of March.

Excellent afternoon tea at Lytham Hall 31/03/2026. Shown into a very grand room. Service was top class like the food . Always attentive if you required more tea, coffee or anything. Lovely warm scones with jam and cream served seperate from rest of food, a nice touch. Can recommend to all.
Dave Smith
Excellent value for money, exquisite food and service. Staff were friendly and helpful, will definitely be returning...again !! Only drawback was the car park. Don't mind paying the £1.50 for 2 hours, but the state of the car park left a little to be desired. Following recent rain, huge puddles made it almost impossible to get to the payment machine. Only a small niggle that could easily be sorted.

We received a voucher at Christmas from our granddaughter. We arrived and were greeted with a smile, shown to our table. Within minutes our afternoon tea arrived with selected of warm pastry and tiny Yorkshire puddings (Sunday’s). Everything was delicious. Plenty of tea, we had 3 pots! Would definitely go again. It was the best afternoon tea I’ve ever had.

We had a lovely time - food was good , One of the ladies was lovely super helpful and chatty , we were over our allotted time and she said we could stay as long as we wanted as it wasn’t full On the next sitting - however the older lady was very frosty bordering rude ! She Came and cleared our plates away, I was still nibbling on the cup of crisps and she took them away from me whilst I had my hand on a crisp !! We were gobsmacked - it total disbelief !! She clearly wanted us gone but didn’t have the manners to ask . My friend has just had a stroke and I’m Disabled and move slowly this too irritated her . I think she could do with some customer service training or I’d she doesn’t like her job move in to somewhere else . We won’t be rushing back .

Love afternoon tea at Lyham Hall. Exquisite food, lovely historical surroundings and the most lovely volunteers who can't do enough to help make the experience fabulous. It was the first time we have done the Sunday tea. Plenty of food and good value for money. The warm savoury additions of soup, quiche, yorkshire puddings etc. were most welcome as my dad does not have a sweet tooth and is not fond of afternoon tea usually. The warm scones were so light and delicious. Will definitely do the Sunday experience again and soon!
Anthea Clough
Fantastic afternoon tea. The sandwiches and the mini bagel were freshly, with delicious fillings. The scones were served warm and appetising. The desserts were beautifully presented. The ambiance in the old Red Library is very pleasant. The staff were attentive and always ready to get another pot of tea. Altogether a great experience.
Karen
What a stunning room to enjoy our afternoon tea in. All the food was fresh and delicious and the scones were served warm. The ladies serving/waiting on us were just lovely. A super experience all round.
