About Us

Inspired by the desire to enjoy an exquisite afternoon tea in the heart of Manchester, our warm and friendly team at Richmond Tea Rooms await every customer with open arms. Our award winning ‘Alice in Wonderland’ themed dining experience is complemented with freshly prepared sandwiches, cakes and treats – all individually made in house with flavours and fillings hand picked by our team of chefs. Our weird and wonderful array of exotic and rare teas from around the world stand side by side with traditional favourites ensuring that every taste is catered for. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just enjoying a last minute afternoon out, our mission is to create an experience you’ll remember for years to come.

The Restaurant

The restaurant is the brainchild of Nick Curtis and Andrew Underwood who ensure their staff hold the highest standards of service whilst you join us in wonderland. From our enchanted forest area where you can dine under the twinkling lights in a woodland themed room, to the orangery which is the most warming garden even on the rainiest of Manchester days. We decided to think out the box and create a different and unique space that still kept a heavy influence from Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland.' the restaurant prides itself on being space of comfort for all people to enjoy from afternoon tea, light meals, drinks, or for function hire. We also always ensure we can cater for everyone and offer vegan and gluten-free options daily. Bookings and walk-ins are both welcome at the restaurant.

I was in the mood for scones and asked chatgpt where the best place was for this. I ended up at richmonds tea. You step into an alice in wonderland bubble. The decor is great, the staff are friendly and the food is delicious!

Love this place. Everything we ate was delicious. Both myself and my wife are vegetarians so we sometimes get dubious and unimaginative savoury options with afternoon teas but our sandwiches were great. I am a pastry chef and can sometimes be critical of cakes etc when out and about (much to the annoyance of my wife) but everything sweet was absolutely brilliant!

We were there yesterday: very cool experience, you feel yourself as if you are really at Mad’s hatter tea party. I would like to especially thank the guys who work at the café. This morning, I took a receipt out of my pocket and smiled at the little notes written on it. Such small moments make others happy.
