Afternoon Tea at Pelican Hill® unfolds as a leisurely, multi‑course experience.
Fridays – Sundays
12pm – 3pm
Guided by seasonality, craftsmanship, and a sense of graceful indulgence. Served in three distinct moments, each course is designed to be savored, shared, and remembered.
THE BREAD & BUTTER CART
Guests are presented with a curated selection of freshly baked breads and traditional scones, accompanied by a seasonal house‑made butter quenelle. Bright citrus curd, rotating seasonal preserves, and softly whipped cream complete the opening course—an inviting prelude that sets the tone for the afternoon.
