Afternoon Tea in Wakefield

The great British ritual, given the warmth of an Italian kitchen — tiered stands of finger sandwiches, savoury bites and dolci made in-house, served at Valentino's on Leeds Road, between Wakefield and Leeds.

Afternoon Tea, the Italian Way

Afternoon tea in Wakefield doesn't have to mean plain finger sandwiches. At Valentino's we've taken the great British afternoon ritual and given it an Italian accent — sandwiches with mortadella and buffalo mozzarella, burrata and heritage tomato, sultana scones with clotted cream, pepperoni scotch eggs, and sweet treats from classic tiramisù cups to mille-feuille and choux pastry, all served on tiered stands with your choice of teas or proper Italian coffee.

See the full Classico and Vegetariano spreads on our afternoon tea page.

Pricing & What's Included

Afternoon tea is £24.95 per person, or £32.00 per person with a glass of chilled Prosecco. Both the Classico and the fully vegetarian Vegetariano are the same price, and a gluten-free afternoon tea is available on request — just let us know when you book.

It's perfect for birthdays, baby showers, anniversaries, catch-ups with friends or treating Mum. As winners of Best Family Friendly Italian Restaurant UK 2024, little ones are always welcome, and the Bambinos menu is available too.
