Does Netherwood Hotel have a restaurant?
Join us for lunch every day of the week, you can dine in our lounges, on the terrace or in the bar and restaurant. We offer a menu of lighter dishes and lunchtime favourites throughout the afternoon. The 3 main foods served at Afternoon Tea are finger sandwiches (no crusts and with fillings such as smoked salmon, cucumber and egg mayonnaise), cake slices or small cakes (such as Victoria sponge) and scones.In a nutshell, afternoon tea is an elegant affair with tea, scones, sandwiches and cakes. Alternatively, high tea is a heartier meal featuring tea, bread, vegetables, cheese and occasionally meat. It could also include pies, potatoes, and crackers.For a light afternoon tea, it is recommended to serve between 5 and 6 food items based on a 3 course menu. Course 1: One scone served with clotted cream & jam per person, Course 2: Two types of crustless finger sandwiches, Course 3: Two to three types of pastries and sweets.The correct order to eat the traditional afternoon tea is to eat the sandwiches and savouries first, then move onto the scones, ending on the sweets.There aren’t any rules when it comes to the food, but a standard afternoon tea menu comprises a tier of sandwiches, a tier of cakes and one of scones or teacakes. But you could also throw in pastries, petits-fours or biscuits. Don’t wear yourself out by taking on too many ambitious bites.
