tea time

[aandstan]

Seems like in Bermuda, especially for 2 days, we should do an English "tea".

 

Any suggestions on good places or any ideas.

St David's lightouse does a nice Afternoon Tea as does the Fairmont Hamilton (my favorite) easily the best in Bermuda. Try their private Princess Blend or one of the many fines teas (at least 10 are served). Devonshire Cream is served.

What should I wear for tea? The dress code is "smart casual". Does this mean no shorts?

[Jeanne S]

The lighthouse you can wear shorts, but the Fairmount expects a more subded proper dress which can be Country Club Casual (which sounds like Smart Casual).

Actually it is Gibbs Lighthouse which serves Afternoon Tea.

I enjoy afternoon tea at the Hamilton Princess, be warned that it is about $30 per person but worth it for a treat. I'd recommend calling earlier in the day (or the day before) and making a reservation, ask for a table by the window with a view of the koi pond.I haven't had tea at Gibbs Hill but I've heard it is really nice as well.

Afternoon Tea At Stonington Is Soooooooooomuch Better Than The Princess. Princess Is Too Stuffy, Stonington Is On The South Shore And It Is The Island Hospitality College. The Service Is Above Superb Because The Students Are Working For Thier Grades......
