Tealicious

Northeast England


Inside this quaint pastel-blue and white building, homemade cakes (such as white-chocolate cheesecake or ginger and lime), soups and sandwiches are complemented by 24 blends of tea served from individual pots in fine bone china. High tea here is a treat for both adults and kids. It's tiny so book ahead.
