Unlock Liverpool had the pleasure of visiting WOOD Chester during Sunday hours to find a relaxed, upmarket atmosphere and first class service to match. We decided to put a  mixture of the Classic Afternoon Tea  and the Gentleman’s Afternoon Tea to the test.

The Classic Afternoon Tea was everything we expected and more. Cream cheese, salmon and honey glazed ham sandwiches, home baked scones and a range of sweet treats at our fingertips; we could not decide what to try first! It really didn’t matter: every single bite was delicious!

Their Gentleman’s Afternoon Tea is an interesting twist on what you would expect from a typical afternoon tea experience. Think scotch eggs, pork pies and fish ‘n’ chips! Added extras like brown sauce and piccalilli really topped this one off. We didn’t think an afternoon tea could get any better, but it even comes with beer!
