Weaver & Wilde
42 High St, Uppermill, Oldham OL3 6HA
Head for an afternoon tea at Weaver & Wilde and you'll be greeted with a
three-tiered selection of edible goodness. The showstopping sandwiches, made
from a combination of white bloomers and ciabattas, host a selection of
flavoursome fillings. The middle layer houses traditional scones, sizable and
fluffy, and complimented with a jam pot and clotted cream - we'll let you
decide which to lather on your scone first! Last but by no means least, the
sweet treat tier, complete with Victoria Sponge, Macaroons, and more! Wash it
all down with one of Weaver & Wildes' speciality brews, from hand-crafted
teas to award-winning coffees!
Grandpa Greene's Parlour & Cafe Bar
Ward Ln, Diggle, Oldham OL3 5JT
Presented beautifully on a miniature picnic bench, the luxury afternoon tea
at Grandpa Greene's looks incredible! The open sandwiches, bruschetta style,
boast an array of tantalisingly tasty toppings and add a touch of class to the
proceedings. The cakes are fantastically appetizing and joyously morish,
comprising classics like Rocky Road to more contemporary offerings like Oreo
cakes. Unlimited teas and coffees, and delicious ice-cream- milkshakes,
will quench your thirst as you savour the experience from the inside of your
in-vogue igloo! Grandpa Greene's Parlour experience sits at the pinnacle of
Afternoon offerings in Uppermill!
The Cake Kitchen
39-41 High St, Uppermill, Oldham OL3 6HS
The Cake Kitchen in Uppermill offers an indulgent afternoon tea experience
that delights the senses. Their meticulously crafted selection includes an
array of savoury delights such as delicate finger sandwiches with flavorful
fillings, accompanied by freshly baked scones served with clotted cream and
preserves. The decadent pastries are poetically crafted, while the cakes,
sumptuously spongy and perfectly moist, manage to do justice to this bake
house's name. This cafe doubles as a bookshop, but their afternoon tea
experience may well leave you lost for words.
Fika Uppermill
56 High St, Uppermill, Oldham OL3 6HA
Kicking things off are Fika's dainty sandwiches, simple but delicious, and
deceptively filling. The beautifully baked jam-and-cream-accompanied scones are
the perfect companion to one of the many speciality brews available. Marvel at
the meticulous macaroons before delving into Fika's splendid selection of
cakes, the Red Velvet cake being the pick of the bunch. Enjoy the whole
experience in a picturesque place because, as you look out onto the river,
there aren't many more scenic settings in Saddleworth to indulge in the
delights of Afternoon Tea!

Lee St, Uppermill, Oldham OL3 6AE
Rec Room is a fantastic independent coffee shop with excellent coffees and
cakes and an equally brilliant afternoon tea offering complete with refined
delights, both sweet and savoury. The sandwiches are thick and rustic and
accompanied by a delicate array of gourmet fillings. Enjoy one of the bespoke
loose-leaf teas, sourced from around the world as you savour the
jam-and-cream-laden scones - they're a sight to behold and taste every bit as
good as they look! The homemade raspberry jam is especially impressive and
encapsulates the experience at Rec Room - homemade, hearty and full
of flavour!
