My friend an I have just had the most wonderful afternoon tea at Bon Tea today. Everything you could possibly wish for with a good selection of freshly made sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam. Also on the third tier of the stand was the most beautiful selection of mini delicacies. Mini fruit tarts, fresh strawberries in wafer thin chocolate baskets just to name a few. The loose leaf tea was refreshing and topped up during our stay. I can't fault in any way and this experience is by far top of my list as far as afternoon tea goes. Also as part of the service we were aloud to choose from a selection of homemade cakes to take away. Cannot fault in any way. Will definitely be back for more.

This is by far the best place to have afternoon tea. You get a choice of sandwiches on brown or white and little cakes and scones with jam and cream. Tea made with tea leaves in china cups. More expensive places I've been have more cake and very few sandwiches. You also can take what you don't eat home and they offer every customer homemade cake to take home. Can't say enough about Le Bon. Terrific value for money

My wife and I had heard this place was meant to be good so we decided to go for an afternoon tea. It was a last minute decision so we were lucky to get a table. Thankfully, I messaged the lady and she was able to jig things around and squeeze us in. The shop is very cute and pink. It feels very authentic as they add little personal touches. Between the 2 of us we had to choose 3 sandwich fillings from 5 options (I expected a few more to choose from). We ended up going with cheese & ham, tuna & mayo and egg & mayo. The afternoon tea came with scones with jam and clotted cream, a selection of small sweet treats and of course a pot of tea of your liking. I would have liked to have seen what tea’s they had available and for it to visible somewhere (the lady did list a few). Service was not bad and staff were quite friendly. We didn’t have to wait too long for our food. The sandwiches were generous and tasted as you would expect. You have the option between brown and white bread. The scones appeared a little stale on the outside but on the inside they were very soft and tasty. The jam was very jelly like but nice and the clotted cream was spot on. The sweet treats on the top layer were good. Some were tastier then others but the attention to detail was what we were most impressed about. Our favour was the cupcake with the macaron on top. Our teas cups of tea were also nice. We got a choice of homemade cakes and treats to takeaway. I went with the carrot cake and my wife had the empire biscuit. Both of which were fine. Overall, we thought it was good value and we are glad we visited. For afternoon tea standards. I’d say it’s great.

Went there with two friends for afternoon tea. The service was excellent as was the food. The choice of sandwiches was excellent and there was just enough to eat. We all really enjoyed the meal and will definitely come back.

We enjoyed a nice afternoon tea and the food was lovely. unfortunately some acetate/plastic was left on one the items which had a chocolate wrap around. We didn't notice this until one of our party had it in there mouth, it could have been a chocking hazard but luckily she realised. When we told they staff they didn't apologise and ther response was it sometimes happens. We feel that they should have at least given a small apology.
