It’s Afternoon Tea Week this week, and despite the thermostat in Liverpool reaching unenviable levels, there’s always time for a spot of tea.

Be it the age-old argument of PG Tips versus Yorkshire Tea, if it’s jam and then clotted cream on a scone rather than vice versa or using a colour chart to determine how strong you want your tea, this week the UK celebrates the humble pre-dinner nibble.

So while the arguments above continue, allow us to give you the ten best places for afternoon tea, according to Tripadvisor.
