Delivery only afternoon tea

Afternoon Tea Delivery Service 

​ 
Our afternoon tea in a box was so popular during Covid that we've decided to keep it, for special occasions. This page will be updated when a key national date is happening, such as Mother's Day, royal events, Easter,  Christmas or when we have capacity to add a few deliveries to our existing schedule - which we'll publish on social media so you can book on. 

​
It's our same ethos of locally sourced and home made, with everything prepared in our 5 star food hygiene rated kitchen, and delivered in our fridge boxes to keep it all chilled and fresh.

How does it work?
 
​Deliveries between 11 and 2pm. Busy days such as Easter and Mother's Day may take longer. 


WARRINGTON delivery only at present but you can collect from Woolston WA1

  • 3 finger sandwiches, crusts removed (of course!)
  • High tea has extra sandwich and pastries!
  • Vegetarian, gluten free and vegan alternative available. 
  • Scone with jam and clotted cream
  • 3 cakes such as Victoria sponge, fruit crumble, decadent chocolate brownie, meringues, cheesecake - each afternoon tea will be different and freshly made.

"​My son surprised me for my birthday with one of your afternoon teas in a box for my husband and I, I just wanted  to let you know how perfect it was!  It was lovely and fresh,  the salad was nice and crisp, it was really well presented in the box, but most of all the cakes were amazing! It was absolutely delicious! I even set it up in the garden with a glass of prosecco, it was my birthday after all!
Loved it and it made my day thank you!"
​​What about our lovely crockery?
We can provide everything you need from the teapot to  the cake fork, with the cake stand in between!  It will be washed and packed up for you and when you've finished just rinse it and rebox it - I'll wash it all up! 

It is £4.50 per person for everything you need. Just book your afternoon tea online and contact me to request the crockery and I will invoice you separately. 

However, if you would like to gift a pretty, vintage cup and saucer, or a trio (cup, saucer and plate) we would be happy to gift wrap these as part of your afternoon tea experience.  (Not necessarily the ones pictured = they are chosen at random but all are beautiful)

Matching vintage cup and saucer £6.00
Trio £7.50 

Or you can mismatch....
Mis matched cup and saucer £4.00 
Mis matched trio £5.00
"The food was your standard afternoon tea of sandwiches and cake, I say standard, but everything is far beyond standard - the cakes are all lovingly hand made, and it shows, everything tasted fresh and beyond expectation to be fair during this time of low supplies everywhere, Room Forty have excelled themselves.

This afternoon tea was a lovely surprise for my wife, and I tip my hat to Jen for a wonderful service from start to finish. I would highly recommend anyone gives her and her wonderful wares a try.

Stay safe! Stay fed! Use Roomy Forty. Win win"
