FOOD+DRINK KENT’S FINEST AFTERNOON TEAS CONT. DOVER MARINA HOTEL 86 Browns of Bexley, Bexley www.brownsofbexley.co.uk Dover Marina Hotel, Dover www.dovermarinahotel.co.uk Riverside Tea Room, Eynsford www.riverside-tearoom.co.uk Great food, great service, a gorgeous location and fabulous interior – Browns is a lovely place to take the weight off your feet and indulge in something tempting and tasty. That something could well be one of the many cakes that are made onsite and you can even eat them in the pretty courtyard outside should the weather suit. If you like a lot of choice when it comes to your afternoon tea and you like something a little less traditional then the offerings at the Dover Marina Hotel will be exactly right for you. There are three different afternoon teas to choose from including the Marina Cream Tea – traditional sultana scones, the Marina High Tea – poached egg on toasted crumpet plus sultana scones with clotted cream and jam, as well as macaroons, chocolate and orange truffle and lemon drizzle cakes, or the Marina Afternoon Tea – finger sandwiches, sultana scones, plus a selection of pastries. You’ll get plenty of tea and coffee which each selection, or a glass of bubbly if you prefer. Eynsford is a gorgeous little village with a river where children can be found paddling and fishing during the summer, and you’ll find quaint pubs, village shops, churches…the list goes on. Add to this chocolate-box village the Riverside Tea Room and the cakes they serve there, all homemade of course, and you’ve got it all. There are a wide variety of afternoon teas to choose from in the most traditional and comfortable of spots. Enjoy unlimited tea and coffee, finger sandwiches, cakes and either plain or fruit scones.
