Time for Tea

There's nothing like an afternoon tea on a beautiful summer's day. Except of course an afternoon tea taken at any time of the day - or season for that matter. If you enjoy tea with a view, Epping Forest District is just the place to come and sample the variety of locations to choose from. Watch historic aircraft (and their passengers and crew) come and go from inside or outside at Rosey Lea right in the middle of the action at North Weald Airfield. Or if a historic setting in the countryside is more your scene, then try Mulberry House or Down Hall. In fact, as well as hotels and tea rooms, many cafes and pubs and even churches also offer afternoon tea, such as Mayfield Bakery near Harlow and The Merry Fiddlers near Epping and St Thomas Church, Upshire. If you're in Epping Forest and looking for refreshment, try The Original Tea Hut near High Beech. There's no fancy plates but its quite an experience sipping your tea in company with enthusiastic walkers, cyclists rider and, of course, the motorcyclists for whom the hut is a tradition. Afternoon tea is also often a feature of event refreshments at attractions across the district - check out historic Copped Hall events for example.
