Just a reminder regarding next week . . .

As we are catering for a special occasion we’ll be closed on Thursday 11th and Friday 12th June to take time to prepare a wonderful wedding feast for a delightful couple.

Don’t worry though — we’ll be back and ready to welcome you again on Saturday when service resumes as normal!

In the meantime we hope to see you later today ☺️

When you sit down at Realitea having decided to enjoy a morning coffee…

And then you spot the cake cupboard!

Suddenly it becomes the toughest decision of the day 😉

You ask yourself, which cake do you choose? The Mango and Cardamon, the Indian Summer, the Marigold - or perhaps a tasty tray bake instead?

Or just maybe you convince yourself that getting two treats is actually just good decision-making (taking one home for teatime of course!)

The coffee part easy… the sweet treat choice is completely up to you.

So we don’t know what happened but the follow message should have popped up yesterday . . . (Never mind, we think there’s never a wrong time to celebrate biscuits anyway ☺️👍)

Happy World Biscuit Day!

Is there a better excuse for tea and biscuits? We don’t think so.

Pop into Realitea today, grab your favourite brew (you’ve got over 20 home blended teas to choose from)and treat yourself to a biscuit or three!. And if all the biscuits have mysteriously disappeared already… well, that just sounds like the perfect excuse for cake instead 😉

Enjoy.

A treat for Thursday …. afternoon tea at Realitea

Here we feature the top two tempting levels of this popular indulgence; the savoury level is in preparation in the kitchen and is therefore yet to be added before being served to the eagerly awaiting customer.

If you too would like to savour this Realitea offering then please remember to call ahead to be sure of your table for this special treat.

See you soon.

Happy World Biscuit Day!

We wonder if there is a better excuse for tea and biscuits . . . We don’t think so!

So why not pop into Realitea today, grab your favourite brew (from our extensive range of home blended teas) and treat yourself to a biscuit (or three 😉).

And if the biscuits have mysteriously disappeared already… well, that just sounds like the perfect excuse for cake instead.

Enjoy!

Just a little advance notice for all our lovely customers — we’ll be closed for a couple of days next month as we’ve had the absolute honour of being asked to cater for a very special occasion — a wonderful couple’s wedding day.

We’d like to wish the bride and groom every joy and happiness, for the big day and, of course, for the future.

So ….. when you’re planning your visits to Realitea, please note we’ll be closed on Thursday 11th and Friday 12th June while we prepare the wedding feast. Don’t worry though — we’ll be back and ready to welcome you again on the Saturday. ☺️

Have a fantastic day everyone.

Yet another glorious sunny day!

If you fancy making the most of the weather, our garden is a peaceful place to pause, and is ready for you to enjoy a spot of brunch (or lunch) in the sunshine.

Whether it’s a cooling drink, coffee and cake, a relaxed brunch, or a catch-up over lunch, we’d love to see you at Realitea today.

Treat time choices by one of our regular customers for this bank holiday weekend ……

Delicious homemade samosa chaat, complimented by one of our many subtly fragrant and unique blended teas.

But the question which always seems to be more difficult is which cake to have to round off their Saturday brunch,

What would your choice be?

Some of the Realitea Team are taking a couple of moments to check out our little hidden garden. Finn (our resident weather forecaster & sous chef) tells us that this weekend we will have brilliant weather - so why not come and visit us and enjoy a little treat from our cake cupboard in the peace of our outdoor space?

See you soon!
