Northern Tearooms

Followers of the Teapot Trail certainly regard the "making of a nice cup of tea" as a serious matter. The concoction of the much beloved refreshing brew has been documented by the British Standards Institution in its publication BS6008: Method for Preparation of a Liquor of Tea, six closely-printed pages to describe how to make the perfect cuppa.
We don't think that any of the tearooms featured in The Northern Teapot Trail will need to study the Institutes findings. Many of the tearooms appeared in the very first Teapot Trail back in 1989 and have been maintaining their high standards ever since, and we have been adding new ones with each edition. As usual, there's a very varied mix of locations. They range from historic houses (Kiplin Hall) and include a sculpture park, Pickering Station on the North York Moors Railway, farmhouses and farm shops, and a corn mill.
All of them have their own individual character and speciality dishes, and they are playing a major role in supporting local suppliers by using fresh, locally gown produce wherever possible. I would also defy anyone who had walked into a tearoom to be greeted by the smell of freshly baked scones and cakes to turn round an leave without tasting anything on the menu!!
