Afternoon Tea

Afternoon Tea by the river

What makes afternoon tea at The Runnymede even more special is our picturesque riverside location. Enjoy a long, lazy afternoon overlooking Bell Weir lock as boats, people and their dogs pass by. Plus, as we are just a stone’s throw from Windsor, it’s the perfect way to relax and indulge after a morning exploring this historic town.

We cater for vegans and vegetarians, adults and little ones alike, each of our menus using delicious, seasonal ingredients. Afternoon Tea is served Monday – Sunday from 1.30pm – 3.30pm.

Please note a discretionary service charge of 10% will be added to your bill. 100% of all gratuities are passed directly to the team members, which are supplementary to their salaries.
