Our classic cream tea with freshly baked scones…
Traditional Devon Cream Teas are an institution here at Mill End, served from 12pm until 4pm every day in our attractive gardens and lounges.
Our Afternoon Teas are a fantastic way to catapult your post-walk rest into a new level of luxury. For £25 per person, you can enjoy an ever-evolving selection of seasonal baked goods, the finest sandwiches this side of the Teign River and, of course, a scone with jam and Devon cream.
Afternoon Tea is available every day for 1 to 55 people and can be accompanied by champagne or prosecco when requested.
Prosecco Afternoon Tea – £31 per person
Champagne Afternoon Tea – £33.50 per person
Wimbledon Afternoon Tea
If just a regular slice of luxury wont do for you this summer, why not try our limited Wimbledon Afternoon Tea that is exclusively available during the tournament?
Join us from the 3rd to the 16th of July and get a Pimms cocktail, afternoon tea and strawberries and cream for £25 per person!

Jam First or Cream First?
For those with a serious interest in Cream Teas, the burning debate remains, of course – what goes on your scone first – the cream or the jam?
If you speak to the good folk of Cornwall they will probably tell you that they apply a liberal layer of butter, then jam, then cream. But here in Devon we (mostly) subscribe to the “cream then jam” school of thought.
Interestingly, London’s Ritz Hotel, purveyors of fine cream teas to the rich and famous, joins us in that opinion.
But truth be told, we don’t think it matters that much. Warm home-made scones, a generous dollop of jam, and a spoonful of local Clotted Cream make the perfect afternoon treat, in whatever order you choose to apply them!
For Afternoon Teas and Cream Teas we can accommodate groups – ask us about special discounts for 10 or more guests.
