As a treat for my wife's birthday we went for the Sunday afternoon tea. Lovely to have it in the hall, very authentic and atmospheric. The food was top notch and the service excellent too. Absolutely great value and would 100% recommend to anyone and its nice to support a great place like Lytham Hall.

Went to Lilibets on Saturday, it was so lovely, Afternoon tea was amazing, the young lad who waited on us, was so lovely & explained everything that we were eating

My husband and I went for afternoon tea last Sunday and so it comes with a Sunday lunch theme. How clever! Prawn cocktail, mini Yorkshire pudding, mini shepherds pie and a tart and a cup of delicious soup. Sandwiches with turkey, cranberry and stuffing and pork with stuffing and apple sauce. A fantastic array of cakes and amazing scones with jam and clotted cream. As much tea as we could drink and excellent service. This was a present for our gold wedding anniversary. Thank you Sue.

This wasn't our 1st visit - but it was my parents. Prosecco cream tea for 4 ! What a beautiful building, with beautiful surroundings to have this memorable couple of hours together. When we arrived we were shown to the morning room before settling into our seats in this gorgeously atmospheric room. It was set up so wonderfully - cups and saucers, china plates & glasses for our fizz. We were greeted to 2 lovely staff who immediately made us feel special. The lady sat us down with a lovely welcome while the gentleman served us our fizz. Once settled in we had a moment to take in the surroundings and appreciate just how beautiful it was in there - the smell, the sounds, it really is a special place. We had a cheer's for our celebration and we then brought 2 large pots of tea to start as the food was collected. I had sent a food request in beforehand as I can't eat bread. I received a beautifully laid out salad with ham and egg - which was lovely. Everyone else had their sandwiches - 4 different fillings & bagels - they assured me they were yummy - they never left a crumb - all washed down with 4 cups of soup. The cakes we were served on the tiered plates looked amazing! They certainly tasted as good as they looked too! Huge fruit meringues, sponge with peach & tumeric, Lemon posset with macaroons. We soon polished those off but we didn't have room for them all - we had to leave room for the hot fruit scones that came out with jams & clotted cream! WOW! they were honestly the best scones Ive ever had! Unfortunately they beat us too, but we didn't waste anything... we were given a box to take home the leftover sweets in & they were enjoyed later with a brew. At 1 point the lady came and took some pictures of everyone in the room for their own private use - a nice touch for us all. We were looked after so well - constantly asked if we'd like top up of anything & even telling us stories about yesteryear, the hall, etc. It was another truly magical 90 mins, that went so fast & was just perfect. We're not local - we live in the East Midlands - but we WILL be back again for another one next time we are up. Thanks everyone for such a special time. 5 Stars

I took my friend for her birthday. The afternoon tea was very enjoyable and plentiful. We were kept topped up with plenty of tea and Bridget was extremely pleasant and personable, taking great care of us. Thank you for a memorable experience
