The long established tradition of Afternoon Tea has been wonderfully preserved at Ashford Castle since 1868 - you’ll notice the original silver tea set displayed in The Connaught Room, which was presented to Lord and Lady Ardilaun to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary in 1896. Our Afternoon Tea menu offers guests a wide selection of speciality teas, delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones and delectable pastries. With spectacular views from the comfort of the castle’s elegant interior, take your time to savour every delicious moment.
