Afternoon tea at The Charleston, Bakewell
Some afternoons deserve to be savoured. Our afternoon tea in Bakewell is served the way it should be: unhurried, generous and made for sharing.
Expect finger sandwiches, warm scones with jam and cream and handmade cakes and sweet treats, all freshly made in-house and served on a tiered stand with a pot of tea. It’s a traditional afternoon tea with a relaxed, welcoming feel, in the heart of the Derbyshire Peak District.
It’s a popular choice for birthdays, celebrations or catch-ups with friends and a perfect stop after a day exploring the Peak District. Whether you’re visiting Bakewell for the day or live nearby and fancy a treat, The Charleston is the ideal place to settle in and make an afternoon of it.
