My wife and I booked into Lilibets (Lytham Hall) for afternoon tea. The grounds leading up to the 18th century Georgian Hall increase the anticipation and expectation. The staff , whom I believe to be all volunteers staff where all friendly and attentive. The service was excellent as was the setting and food and the experience did not disappoint despite the high expectation. The visit is highly recommended, as is the tour of the house if time allows.

What a fabulous afternoon . The staff were so accommodating and the food…sandwiches and cakes and numerous tea and coffee servings were excellent. We truly felt pampered. What a great way to spend a couple of hours. The cake and sandwich mixes were an excellent combination. The cakes moist and delicious . The scones were warm and scrumptious. Cannot praise the experience highly enough. Will do again. Thank you.

The whole experience was totally excellent. Lovely food presented by friendly attentive dedicated volunteers. This was the second time that we had visited and there will definitely be more in the future. Top marks !!
Mrs Salthouse
Lovely welcome by friendly staff. We felt the room was cramped and too many tables in a small room The sandwiches were disappointing, hardly any filling apart from the coronation chicken, the mini bagles were dry. Hardly any flavour to the posett. Service was very good.

We had a fabulous afternoon at Lilibet's. Despite being a fairly large group, staff was attentive and coffee and tea was flowing. Staff was very thoughtful with a couple of ladies with food dietery requirements. Overall another great afternoon tea. Thank you.
