Meals and Afternoon Teas at Bassenthwaite Lake Station

Allergies, specific diets and requests

 

With so many elements and items on our delicious menus and afternoon teas, we have reviewed how we can best accommodate special diets, allergies, intolerances and preferences in order to protect those with the most severe conditions.

Our menu shows all allergens and indicates any meals that can be made gluten-free on request.

 

Five set-menu Afternoon Teas are available:

1. Standard afternoon tea – suitable for those with no special diets, allergies, intolerances or requirements

2. Gluten-free afternoon tea – same as the standard tea but with gluten-free bread and ingredients

3. Pescatarian afternoon tea – same as the standard tea but with no meat or gelatine

4. Vegetarian afternoon tea – same as standard tea but with no meat or fish and no gelatine

5. Vegan afternoon tea – all items are plant-based.

The child’s tea is similar to the adult version but with fewer items and plainer sandwiches.

​

This will apply for seasonal and special afternoon teas.

We are unable to vary these menus or accommodate any special requests.

 

We are sorry that we are unable to accommodate combinations of dietary requirements e.g. vegetarian and gluten-free or preferences such as plain sandwiches, brown bread only or no egg.

All our afternoon teas contain nuts and we do not have a nut-free afternoon tea kitchen or nut-free alternatives therefore we are unable to provide afternoon teas to guests with a nut allergy. For the same reason, we are unable to accommodate other allergies and diets. Guests who have allergies and intolerances who are seated with other afternoon tea customers are welcome to choose a meal from our main menu instead.

For Dairy-free or No egg diets the vegan afternoon tea will be served.

For ‘No cheese’ diets the vegan afternoon tea will be served
