The Hunts Post asked its readers which venue in Huntingdonshire serves the best afternoon tea and Carriages of Cambridge gained third place.
Known for its unique afternoon tea experience, it’s clear to see why it placed in the top three.
Located in Fen Drayton just outside of Huntingdon, those who visit Carriages will be taken back to the golden age of luxury rail travel and will be able to indulge in a delicious range of handmade afternoon teas.
Carriages is a unique setting perfect for catching up with friends and family, celebrating special occasions or hosting a private party or business event.
From the moment you step into the 1920s station, you will be transported back to the romantic era with all its luxury.
The highest attention has been paid to creating Carriages' very special venue from the original Pullman style carriages, separate armchairs, locally grown ingredients in the Victorian garden and enticing menu of traditional afternoon tea with a contemporary twist.
After hearing they had placed third in The Hunts Post’s Best for Afternoon Tea competition, a spokesperson for Carriages of Cambridge said: “We all at carriages are over the moon for coming third in the best place in Huntingdonshire to have afternoon tea.
“The whole team would like to give a massive thank you to everyone that voted for us, it means so much to us all on the carriages team.
“You have all made our day, and we will continue to strive to give the best experience to all our diners and hope to see lots more of you soon.”
Carriages of Cambridge is located at Capability Barns, Huntingdon Road, Fen Drayton, CB24 4SD.
