Fluffy scones, picture-perfect pastries and Mansion views.
Take a delightful little detour from the hustle and bustle of the city, and you’ll find the perfect spot for High Tea in the lush surrounds of Werribee Park.
From the grandeur of the Werribee Park Mansion itself to those rolling green lawns and beautiful gardens – it’s a place that feels made for indulgent afternoons of tea and scones, perfect pastries and a long, tall glass of something delicious.
The Refectory Parlour’s terrace dining area beneath the arches of the Mansion is a stunning spot to while away the day, with Heritage High Tea bookings available Wednesday – Sunday, 11.30am and 1.30pm. Their lavish spread includes delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and house-made jams and an exquisite selection of cakes and pastries, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available (Adults $85 and Children $45).
Devonshire Tea bookings at The Refectory Parlour are also available Wednesday – Sunday, 11.30am and 1.30pm including scones with jam cream, tea and coffee and home-made lemonade ($25 per person) – the perfect addition to a day exploring Werribee Park Mansion!
Lancemore Mansion Hotel’s High Tea has become something of an institution. High tea is served in Joseph's Dining overlooking the gardens every Saturday (12:30pm) and Sunday (12.30pm and 3pm). Bookings are essential with sittings at $99 per person (children $59) including free flowing Prosecco for adults.
This summer you can also enjoy Lancemore Mansion Hotel's indulgent Taittinger Long Brunch, a delectable two-course shared menu with free flowing Taittinger Champaigne and live music. Bookings now available for weekends, 11am - 1pm.
Further afield, The Social Sutra in Werribee City Centre offers Bottomless Brunch from 11am ($40 with any main meal purchased) with bookings via 03 9741 4572 while Corked Wine Bar is also a great spot to spend the weekend with their Endless Sessions including wine, beer, share plates and pizza from Saturdays and Sundays, 1.30pm to 3.30pm ($70 per person).
Salut!
