Luxurious High Teas in the Blue Mountains

1. Hydro Majestic High Tea

 

The beautiful Hydro Majestic Hotel in Medlow Bath is one of Australia's most iconic historical hotels, and they serve one of the most popular Blue Mountains high tea. Thanks to an air of understated elegance, jaw-dropping panoramic views that drink in the stunning Megalong Valley vista and plush, charming furnishings, there really is no better spot for a memorable Blue Mountains high tea. 

Served on a three-tiered silver stand in the stunning Wintergarden Restaurant, a Hydro Majestic high tea comes with a selection of finger sandwiches, petit pastries, freshly baked scones with all the trimmings and a whole lot more. Speciality teas and coffees are unlimited, and there's also the option to upgrade to a glass of something sparkling.

4. Bygone Beauty's High Tea

High teas in the Blue Mountains don't come much more traditional than those served at Bygone Beauty's Treasure Teapot.

A stalwart of the high tea scene, the range of delicious treats is served by a top-hatted waiter in tails, with all the grace of silver service. Guests will enjoy finely rolled crustless sandwiches, an assortment of homemade tea cakes and biscuits, topped off with homemade baby scones with freshly whipped cream and strawberry jam and accompanied by your choice of house tea or coffee.

For a 'supreme' experience, the Traditional High Tea Supreme comes with bubbly in crystal flutes upon arrival with mini quiches, sausage rolls and vegetarian roulades, in addition to the above. Yum!

Oh, and FYI, Bygone Beauty's offer a BYO champagne option for just $3.30 corkage per person—which makes for an ultra-decadent experience!
