About
Located close to the beach in the popular seaside town of Broadstairs is the wonderfully nostalgic Bessie’s Tea Parlour. What a treat in so many ways! Step back in time to relax and enjoy the authentic homely atmosphere and delicious homemade food presented beautifully on dainty vintage china.
The menus offer an amazing selection of savoury and sweet delights. Kentish produce is used whenever possible and tea is blended locally. Bessie’s offers light breakfast or brunch options to start your day. Delicious lunches include jacket potatoes with various toppings, quiche, soup (served with a Kentish Huffkin) and daily specials. The sandwich menu offers a great selection of traditional and unusual fillings including tasty Kentish cheeses with crab being a crowd- pleaser in the summer months.
Among mouth watering homemade sweet treats are cakes, puddings, waffles, and of course, scones. Bessie’s Afternoon Teas are a luxuriously indulgent experience not to be missed and a memorable way to enjoy a special occasion. Afternoon Teas can be created for any dietary requirement- gluten free, dairy free, vegan, just let us know and we’re more than happy to accommodate!
The team at Bessie’s are passionate about catering for dietary needs and offer many outstanding Gluten Free options across the menus. Vegetarian, dairy- free and vegan options also available. The friendly and knowledgeable staff are always happy to answer questions regarding food preparation and ingredients and to advise on menu choice.
