Step into the elegant surrounds of The Palm Court, where towering palms, soft natural light and sparkling chandeliers set the scene for one of The Oyster Box’s most cherished traditions.

Served daily, High Tea is a relaxed and indulgent experience designed to be savoured at leisure. Accompanied by the gentle sounds of a live pianist, guests are invited to enjoy a generous selection of sweet and savoury delights, freshly prepared by the hotel’s pastry team.

Expect a refined spread that celebrates both classic teatime favourites and local flavours — from delicate finger sandwiches and golden, freshly baked scones with cream and preserves, to an ever-changing array of pastries, cakes and confections. Signature touches, such as the hotel’s beloved chicken mayo sandwich and locally inspired savouries, bring a distinctive sense of place to the experience.

A curated selection of premium teas perfectly complements the offering, inviting guests to linger a little longer in this timeless setting.

Whether marking a special occasion or simply indulging in an afternoon escape, High Tea at The Palm Court is a celebration of generous hospitality, heritage and understated luxury.
