The Orchard Tea Garden Cambridge
Information on The Orchard Tea Garden Cambridge
Just a short distanced from the bustle of Cambridge you’ll find the Orchard Tea Garden in Grantchester. A corner of England where time stands still as the hectic world hurtles by. The Orchard has been serving tea for nearly 120 years and is is famous for attracting many a literary luminary from Virginia Woolf and poet Rupert Brooke, to Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath.. Relax, enjoy the genteel setting and soak up the atmosphere of a bygone era.
Serving fragrant coffee and aromatic blends of tea, delicious brunches, lunches and sweet tasting treats – no afternoon tea would be the same without the obligatory scones, jam and cream. Fully licensed, the informal eatery offers a selection of champagne,wines, bottled beers, ciders and spirits. Relax, enjoy the genteel setting and soak up the atmosphere of a bygone era.
This old orchard provides a perfect backdrop for a vintage wedding – whether you love 1930’s Art Deco, a homespun 1940’s look or a more modern boho festival feel. Outside there’s heaps of space under the apple trees and The Pavilion (named after the original building) provides an indoor area with doors opening onto the gardens. Although there isn’t any accommodation in the small village (there are three watering holes however!) it’s only a short drive into Cambridge, which offers a bed for the night to suit most budgets.
