Does that sound like the perfect way to spend an afternoon?

Would you have a hot cup of English breakfast tea to accompany your tasty afternoon tea treats or maybe a glass of sparkling prosecco?

Next week is afternoon tea week – August 12 to August 18 - a whole week to celebrate the British tradition.

The treat - between lunch and evening meal - is hugely popular with restaurants, coffee shops and garden centres now offering their own take.

Some might add savoury pastries to the sandwich option while others might offer a slice of homemade cake before the fruit scones.

There are some fantastic places serving afternoon tea in Wirral and we want to know which is your favourite and why they deserve to win our afternoon tea award.

In our Best of 2024 campaign, we’ve given out 15 awards so far in Wirral for hair, nails and beauty, tattoos and independent shops, as well as pizza, dessert and cocktails and many more.

Voting is currently taking place to find Wirral’s Best Pizza, with the vote closing at midnight on Sunday, August 11.

This week it’s afternoon tea and we want to know where to go for some delicious afternoon treats.

Who will win Wirral’s Best for Afternoon Tea 2024?

Tell us which of the area’s afternoon teas should make our shortlist and then the overall winner will be decided by you, our readers.

HOW IT WORKS: 

Each Friday morning we will reveal new categories via our social media pages and ask you who is the best. Nominations will then close each Monday morning at 12pm.

Every Thursday we will publish a shortlist of finalists with voting officially opening.

Voting closes each Sunday evening at midnight.

The following Wednesday evening we will announce the winner of that category on social media.
