Loved the venue, the decor was lovely and autuminal themed. Got seated really quickly with a copy of the menu for what we booked. We had opted for the Sunday lunch afternoon tea. Took 30 minutes for this to arrive with our tea, and where this doesn't sound long, for this being pre booked, I think a little excessive. When it arrived everything looked delicious, we could also see the other themed options and they looked equally as good. We couldn't finish the sweet treats so had to have take out. One recommendation I would put forward to the team is the cold sandwich selection (ham and piccalilli & beef with horseradish), these are strong flavours that aren't for everyone but there isn't an option to have them made without. I think with booking ahead you could specify that this is left off, but they can't accommodate which is a shame as that definitely spoilt my experience. Overall I think it's expensive, you are paying for the experience rather than the food as such. But glad I've done it. The trifle and pigs in blankets was delicious 🤤

A wonderful visit to Mama Doreens in Harrogate with our 9-Year old daughter, we were warmly greeted and enjoyed the "Friends Themed Afternoon Tea" which was amazing & wonderfully inventive! The food was great, the atmosphere was relaxed & our daughter enjoyed her children's version of the afternoon tea - and was excited to receive her sweety bag at the end! We couldnt eat it all - so boxed the rest & took it home. All-in-all a great experience & highly recommended!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mama Doreen’s Harrogate – Afternoon Tea Review I had the most wonderful afternoon tea experience at Mama Doreen’s in Harrogate. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, cosy, and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and genuinely attentive, which really made the visit feel special. The food itself was perfect a delicious selection of freshly made sandwiches, fluffy scones with jam and cream, and the most incredible cakes and sweet treats. Everything tasted homemade with real care and attention to detail. The presentation was stunning too, like something straight out of a boutique bakery display. The tea menu had plenty of choice, and everything was served beautifully. It’s the kind of place that makes you slow down, relax, and really enjoy the moment. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just fancy treating yourself, Mama Doreen’s is easily one of Harrogate’s best spots for afternoon tea. I’ll definitely be returning!
