Afternoon Tea

"Under certain circumstances there are few hours more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea." - Henry James, The Portrait of a Lady.

Today, Cashel Palace’s afternoon tea channels the glamorous high society era, bringing an Irish flavour to this beloved tradition. Expect delicate bone china, signature loose leaf tea in silver pots and cake stands laden with decadent treats. Served in our impressive Queen Anne Room, you shall find deep sofas, high ceilings, chandeliers, tall windows, a log fire and walls hanging with equine art – the perfect setting for lingering over delicious pastries, savouries and cakes!
On fine summer days, Afternoon Tea can be taken on the Garden Terrace, overlooking Cashel Palace’s glorious gardens. We cannot imagine a more enjoyable way to while away a carefree afternoon.
