The Verandah – Floral afternoon tea by the sea
The old school charm of The Verandah has us swooning anyway, but its afternoon tea is also a Sassy Mama tried-and-tested option. We loved every bite of the sweets and savouries and the elegant setting – and also the fact that we were minutes away from the beach where kids can let off some steam! The Enchanted Garden afternoon tea set draws inspiration from London’s dazzling Chelsea Flower Show and features fruity favourites like mango mousse cake, wild berry Tart Meyer lemon cream puff and more.
When: 3pm to 5:30pm on Wednesdays to Fridays; 3:30pm to 5:30pm on weekends and public holidays
How much: $488 for one and $688 for two (weekdays); $528 for one and $768 for two (weekends)
