I’ve wanted to try the afternoon tea at the Cloud 23 Bar at the top of the Hilton in Manchester for quite some time now, so as a belated Birthday treat for my mum and I, we booked ourselves in. Sat in a beautiful, relaxing lounge we enjoyed teeny delicious finger sandwiches, macarons, scones and mini lemon meringue tarts(!). We also had the pleasure of 23rd floor high panoramic views of Manchester for miles – quite impressive!

We enjoyed (several) cups of tea with our fancy food but there is the option to upgrade to a champagne afternoon tea option. I would definitely recommend this luxurious afternoon tea treat for a very special occasion or to spend precious quality time with your mum or best girly friend.
