The Dining Room At Chewton Glen

We visited for Afternoon Tea to celebrate my mum’s birthday and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The setting is beautiful and relaxing, and the food was impeccable — everything from the sandwiches to the scones and cakes was freshly made, delicious, and beautifully presented. The staff were incredibly attentive and made us feel so welcome throughout. A special touch that really meant a lot was when they surprised my mum with a small birthday cake, complete with "Happy Birthday" written on it — such a thoughtful gesture that made her day even more special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Chewton Glen truly knows how to make an occasion feel memorable. Highly, highly recommended — we’ll definitely be back!

An excellent afternoon tea in an excellent setting. We went for our wedding anniversary and thus didn't mind spending little more than we would normally for an afternoon tea. But for that we did get great quality food, second helpings of sandwiches and some extra cake to take home. The staff were attentive and very polite, and one of the sweet treats had a chocolate 'happy anniversary' plaque on it. We had a 1 year old with us and there was a nice changing area. We would happily recommend it.

Would prefer the gluten and dairy free mushroom starter as option which my friend had as cheese thing in the afternoon tea is too strong for me personally. Would love to see lemon and poppy seed scone. Would love a small shot glass size Eton Mess or lemon curd pudding or triffle just a different texture to all cake. Other cakes could be smaller in that instance perhaps ? Bit crowded today v busy had to go and ask for more drinks twice could do with a few more staff on those days but it wasnt a disaster I just felt like a pain asking for more tea nothing the staff did to make me feel like that. They guys as usual parked my car as had disabled people with me thats so helpful. Love taking all the cakes home as you cannot fit it all in so thats a lovely treat for after. I personally would love to have to option of taking some of the breakfast tea home to accompany the cakes the next day but that's just me as the tea is so good. Staff are super helpful as always and try to make everything perfect.amazing birthday treat was able to take a few more cakes home as my birthday such a thoughtful gesture. We were celebrating my birthday the staff are always super helpful with connie, connie loves going at 98 years old as its nice to make positive memories at the end of her journey.

Absolutely wonderful Afternoon Tea experience! Highly recommend. Gorgeous location. Made our Birthdays very special. Thank you x

I can't recommend Chewton Glen Hotel and Spa highly enough—especially for their exceptional afternoon tea! My parents and I visited on Sunday, and from the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed and pampered. The setting is beautiful and tranquil, with gorgeous views of the gardens that made our afternoon feel truly special. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. The afternoon tea itself was outstanding. Every bite was delicious, from the delicate finger sandwiches and freshly-baked scones (with clotted cream and homemade jams!) to the stunning array of pastries and cakes. There was a lovely selection of teas, all beautifully served, and the attention to detail was perfect. It was such a memorable experience for our family—a blend of elegance, warmth, and sheer indulgence. Thank you, Chewton Glen, for making our Sunday afternoon so magical. We can’t wait to come back!

We had an amazing afternoon, celebrating a friend visit from Brazil. We were all very impressed with the art and deco. Many pictures were taken and shared on our social media. Thank you for made our get together so special, we will treasure this experience forever and we’ll definitely comeback again. Thank you

Lovely setting and amazing table next to the window looking out onto the lawn. Great service from start to finish. The menu is quite expensive, so we expected superb quality. Starters were amazing we had the chicken and the tuna. 5/5 for those. The mains weren’t as good, my wife had the halibut which was lovely, I had the chicken which whilst moist and tasty requires a sauce to accompany. Thanks again

The food was absolutely incredible, and the service was outstanding from start to finish. The ambiance and atmosphere were excellent — warm, inviting, and beautifully put together. Thank you so much for such an amazing experience. I genuinely enjoyed every moment!Ewelina
