Savour the flavours of Yorkshire… our cheesy twist on afternoon tea!

We’re delighted to announce the launch of our ‘Cheesy Afternoon Tea for Two’ in Calvert’s Restaurant here at the Visitor Centre.

Our Cheesy Afternoon Tea showcases the Creamery’s handcrafted cheeses, complemented with locally made artisan chutney and rich fruitcake. Enjoy the stunning panoramic views of the rolling Yorkshire Dales while you indulge in a cheesy selection of dishes.

Featuring some of our most popular sweet and savoury dishes, the menu includes a classic Three Cheese Quiche, an indulgent oozy Wensleydale Mac n Cheese, and the ‘Ultimate Wensleydale Creamery Rarebit’ made to a secret recipe featuring Yorkshire Wensleydale, Double Yorkshire and Yorkshire Cheddar with Black Sheep Ale.  The dishes are perfectly complemented with locally produced Raydale Preserves Tomato & Chilli Chutney, a fresh salad garnish and chunky chips.

With a truly Yorkshire twist on dessert, our signature Yorkshire Wensleydale & Ginger Cheese Cheesecake delights cheese fans.  And to complete the menu, the regional delicacy of serving rich fruitcake with a slice of Yorkshire Wensleydale cheese. Rounding off the cheesy culinary experience is a refreshing pot of Yorkshire Tea, of course!

Enjoy a day out in the Yorkshire Dales, by combining our afternoon tea with exploring our Cheese Visitor Experience. Learn about the proud 1000-year cheesemaking heritage in the Yorkshire Dales, with live cheesemaking demonstrations, and discover perfectly pairings with each of our handcrafted cheeses, in the ‘Taste of Yorkshire Tasting Room’! Then stock up on your favourites in our Cheese & Gift Shop.
