Afternoon Tea

You can’t call a beautiful, 18th century Georgian building home and not honour one of the most popular and elegant pastimes of that era. The Irish people’s love affair with ‘a cup of tea’ is taken to new heights with the spectacular Afternoon Tea at The Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel.

Full of tradition, celebration and a tremendous amount of cake, our delicious Afternoon Tea makes for a wonderful experience. Whether you are marking life’s special moments, completing a shopping day in style or simply enjoying a spot of peaceful indulgence, simply sit back, relax and let our team take care of you like never before.

Delivered in the sumptuous surroundings of our historic home, our take on this centuries-old tradition is filled with freshly baked homemade scones, hand-crafted pastries and lots of delicious savoury bites. While you enjoy them, you can also try any of our wide selection of piping-hot teas and coffees from around the world. After all, enjoying ‘a little of what you love is good for you.’

To avoid disappointment, reservations must be made for Afternoon Tea. Bookings must include a minimum of 2 people and be placed at least 24 hours in advance. Our highly-skilled chefs can accommodate any special requests or dietary requirements, once they are highlighted at the time of booking.
