Afternoon Tea At Dovedale - Cleethorpes

The afternoon experience was better here. There was no option for white or brown bread. The cheese sandwiches used what seemed like sliced salmon instead of hand-carved. The portion sizes were small; the dumplings were tiny compared to what they used to be, and they were served with a mere dollop of cream, whereas they used to have a generous amount. Furthermore, prices have increased by nearly 40% in recent years. It's still beautiful, but not as good as other places.

The afternoon tea here was more enjoyable. However, there was no option for white or brown bread. The cheese sandwiches were offered, but if you're accustomed to smoked salmon, you'll find the wafer-thin ham less satisfying than hand-carved slices. The scones were quite small, topped only with a dollop of cream, whereas I prefer larger scones served with a generous quenelle of cream. Additionally, the prices have increased by nearly 40% in recent years. It’s still pleasant, but it doesn’t compare favorably to other establishments.

The afternoon tea experience here has declined compared to the past. There's no option for white or brown bread anymore. The cheese sandwiches have replaced the previously offered smoked salmon, and the wafer-thin ham is not nearly as satisfying as the hand-carved version we used to enjoy. The scones are now tiny, accompanied by just a dollop of cream, whereas they used to be large with a proper quenelle of cream. Additionally, the price has increased by almost 40% in the last couple of years. While it's still enjoyable, it no longer provides the same value as other establishments.
