FAQ

Is the Tiptree Tea Room Dog Friendly?

We welcome well behaved dogs into our Tiptree Tea Room's secret garden.

To ensure a smooth entry, we kindly request that dogs enter the garden through the back gate, instead of accessing it through the Tea Room. (Please note, The Secret Garden will be closed completely from 1st November until the Spring) However there will be limited seating available outside the visitor centre entrance.

Do you offer farm tours at Tiptree?

We do offer exciting Public Farm Tours which will take place every Friday from July 26th to August 30th at 1pm. To ensure a personalised experience, each tour will accommodate a maximum of 34 people. The tour duration is approximately 40 minutes.

Children under the age of 3 can join us free of charge, whilst the ticket price for under 16 years old is £5 and adults is £10.

Can we have a tour of the Tiptree factory?

We are sorry to say that we are no longer able to offer tours of the Factory but we do have the informative Tiptree Jam Museum that you can walk round at your own leisure for free.

Do you accept groups/parties at the Tiptree Tea Room?

The Tiptree Tea Room does accept groups and parties but this will depend on the numbers in the party/group and availability. Please call the tea room direct for confirmation and availability.

We do not hire our Tea Room for exclusive use during opening times but bookings outside these times will be considered. We also have the Tiptree Marquee that is situated in the Secret Garden that can be hired at certain times of the year.

When is Afternoon Tea served?

Afternoon Tea is served from 12pm every day but please arrive an hour at least before closing time in order to enjoy the full experience.

What does Afternoon Tea consist of and how much is it?

English Afternoon Tea for Two served on a three-tier cake stand with two freshly made sandwiches of your choice, homemade fruit scones, Tiptree Little Scarlet Strawberry preserve and Rodda’s classic Cornish clotted cream. A selection of our miniature individual patisserie items to finish, with your
choice of tea or coffee.

Afternoon tea for two people costs £40 and you can upgrade with a 100ml glass of Prosecco each for an extra £10.

Can I book a table in your tea rooms?

Our tea rooms welcome a limited number of reservations, with availability varying on different days.

Please look at the tea room booking information page for details on when you can book for each tea room.

Calling us directly is the preferred booking method, please be aware that during busy breakfast and lunch periods, our staff may not be able to answer the phone immediately.

Do you sell gift vouchers?

Yes, you can purchase them here.

Or visit any of our Tea Rooms or Jam Shop.

Our partners at Pressi.co.uk offer an e-voucher.

Do you cater for dietary requirements?

The Tea Rooms offer a variety of options for different dietary requirements (e.g. Gluten free and Dairy free) but it is always preferred to call ahead to ensure they have fresh options at the time of your visit.

Please note that we can provide dietary specific items but they will not be prepared in a allergen free kitchen.

How do we know when the tea rooms are operating the times for Summer or Winter?

Our Summer opening times start on 1st March and our Winter opening times start on 1st October. Please call ahead as The Tiptree Tea Rooms may need to consider closing a bit earlier than usual, due to low foot traffic in off season. Please keep an eye on our website and social media for details. Please call ahead of your visit if you are unsure on the opening times.
